If you want to get the location of an attachment on the player its exactly the same procedure as in the first person ragdoll code, you just use a pointer to the player class, etc:
(from inside say HL2_Player.cpp) CBasePlayer *pPlayer = (CBasePlayer *)this; Vector eyeOrigin, eyeAngles; pPlayer->GetAttachment( pPlayer->LookupAttachment( "eyes" ), eyeOrigin, eyeAngles ); - Jed On 14/01/2008, Ryan Nash <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > -- > [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] > I am trying to get the player's body model to display while in first person > mode.
