Can i add my own weapon skin to my server? and other players see it ??

If yes can you tell me HOW ?

You can replace the textures of some weapons, but not the MODEl.

To do this use the engine functions: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Cli ... _functions

I have weapon .DFF and .TXD now can you tell me what to do ? please ?? sorry because i dont know T-T

[Castillo]

As I said, use the engine functions, and also, I told you that you can't replace MODEL(S)(.DFF files).

[SonicTHedgehog]

Engine functions replace a vehicle TXD file .. and i want to replace a weapon TXD file ..

[botanist]

No, the example replaces a vehicle texture. But you can retexture every possible model with that function. That's why he mentioned it.

Can you tell me what to do ?

i am so sorry i am new in scripting i did the wiki scripting tutorial and every thing worked but i still dont know how to make some thing new lol

here is the examples

Example 1: This example loads a combination of a custom DFF and TXD file to replace the Euros vehicle in-game. The collisions are embedded inside the DFF file.

outputChatBox ( "> replacing the euros vehicle" )

txd = engineLoadTXD ( "data/euros.txd" )

engineImportTXD ( txd, 587 )

dff = engineLoadDFF ( "data/euros.dff", 587 )

engineReplaceModel ( dff, 587 )

Example 2: This example loads a combination of custom DFF, TXD and COL files to replace an in-game model of a set of floors.

outputChatBox ( "> loading floor objects" )

txd_floors = engineLoadTXD ( "models/office_floors.txd" )

engineImportTXD ( txd_floors, 3781 )

col_floors = engineLoadCOL ( "models/office_floors.col" )

dff_floors = engineLoadDFF ( "models/office_floors.dff", 0 )

engineReplaceCOL ( col_floors, 3781 )

engineReplaceModel ( dff_floors, 3781 )

Example 3: This example replaces the victim billboards in last venturas (when replacing default models you do not need to replace a dff or col)

outputChatBox ( "> replacing billboards" )

txd_floors = engineLoadTXD ( "models/vgsn_billboard.txd" )

engineImportTXD ( txd_floors, 7300 )

i think i must use first one ... but how idk

[botanist]

The first one indeed. Replace "data/euros.txd" with the filepath of your file (be sure to add it to meta.xml!), and replace the number with the weapon model number.

Don't use the rest; That's DFF (so the model) related stuff, and that doesn't work for weapons (and peds too if you wanted to know, only objects and vehicles can have a custom DFF.).

[Castillo]

Here's a example of meta.xml: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Meta.xml
