I want to save animating till later to be honest. And I'd prefer to have all the attachments as seperate models and attach them when need be. I don't want players to be removing / attaching on the fly; a bit like CoD4 attachments.
All I want is code / concepts of how I would spawn this model and attach it to the local client's viewmodel (doing worldmodel later). FYI Viewmodels are bummers :( Thanks, - Saul.
