We have a load out model that exists only on the client side and the weapon model for this follows a player model... just elaborate on what it does, and the code we use for that weapon setup is.
m_pLoadoutWeaponModel->FollowEntity(m_pLoadoutModel, true, m_pLoadoutModel->LookupAttachment( "M1_Root" )); It works perfectly for our stationary model, though it does play animations and the weapon follows fine, the second parameter being the bone merge, and third come to think of it I don't think M1_Root exists in any of our models so that passes as an invalid attachment. Hope that helps.
