Hello,

I've looked and searched everywhere but I can not find anything about loading a player model fps style which will show the weapon or gun along with the arms/hands simular to Call of Duty, Medal of Honor ect.

Does anyone have any example code or anything for this?

Thanks,
Chris

Attach the player model to the camera, then attach the gun to the player.

Lol, I am asking a question about the answer.... Well, anyways, how would you do that? Attach something to another thing-- I can't figure it out...

You may end up with some Z fighting by attatching the camera. However if you make a separate model of just the arms with the gun and use that on your client end, then position that at the right distance in front of your camera it may work better. It would also greatly reduce the player's poly count on the client side.

Just a thought..
