Morbus Custom Weapons

[KevinnTCG]

I have been looking through most of the Morbus gamemode files, trying to make a gun i got from the workshop work on it. I can't seem to make it spawn in my pointshop, or even add it to the spawnlist on the morbus maps. Does anyone have any idea if morbus has some sort of protection from customs or am i screwing something up? I even took the lua from a gun in morbus and pretty much copy pasted it (minus sounds, dmg, and models) into my customs lua and still nothing.

If this is the wrong section to post this on i apologize, but out of all of them it seemed the most fitting..

Does morbus use it's own models and materials folder for it's guns? Could that be the problem since they are in my main directory?

It might be easier to just explain to me the process of adding content, the only process I know of is extracting all of it's files to the root directory and going from there, but this gun won't spawn.

First off it's good to understand how SWEP's work. Try reading the wiki and creating some of your own before you start trying to rip sweps from gamemodes since usually they have gamemode-specific functions or advanced code.

Now if i'm reading this properly, you're trying to take the gun models from Morbus and get them as a workshop addon or something. Unless you know some decent lua, and have the capabilities of porting over the weapon base and the weapons to be compatible as a stand alone addon, this task will be impossible for you. The weapon models, materials, and sounds are located in a number of different locations. Furthermore some of the code which sets up the sounds for the guns are stored inside the main weapon base.

I have been planning on creating an addon for the workshop that contains all of the Morbus weapons packaged for reuse in sandbox/derprp, you might just want to wait till then.

What I am trying to do is add a gun FROM the workshop INTO my morbus gamemode and make it available to be purchased in the pointshop (until i add it to the maps spawncode for guns) But it seems nothing i do works. I took a gun from the morbus's gamemode (the swep) and copied most of the values over minus the damage sounds and models and nothing worked still.

I am thinking it might be pointshop related now...considering i completely copied the gun into the swep and nothing worked =p

[KevinnTCG]

Does the pointshop automatically detect the gamemode being played and look for the files in the morbusgame folder?

EDIT: Added it to the spawntables for the morbus map and it spawns but i cannot pick it up. The swep i am using is pretty much a 100% import from the Scar M8, minus the model and sounds.

Well, are you sure it isn't the SWep itself? Have you tried giving yourself the swep without using Pointshop?

[KevinnTCG]

I am assuming it is the SWEP considering it spawns now (read edit on post above) but i cannot pick it up with E like i can the Scar M8.

Edit: replaced the model and sounds with the actual scar M8 swep, and it works -_- don't understand what the problem is...do i need to rename the folder from weapon_me3_scimitar to weapon_mor_scimitar?

You're being too vague. Without actually seeing the content we can't help much.

FIXED IT, i am an idiot btw, i had the swep turn off worldmodels...now everything works flawlessly. Sorry about all the trouble =(
