Similar question asked a bit ago, only thing I can think of is it load a different txd / dff file if a person is in range of the gun. But that would replace all guns in range, other then that I'm not sure unless you were to attach a custom model to the persons hand when the gun is out and replacing the original gun with an invisible model, finding the object of the gun that the person is holding is near impossible, from what I know.

All you can do here is attaching some interior models (ex: a TV) to M4 and make M4 alpha 0 and then replace M4 skin with that custom model you made earlier and voila.

Edit: Also give some advice here.

This can be achieved using

engineApplyShaderToWorldTexture 

You can check the "UV scripted" resource to see how its done.

This will only work client side he also need server side and my idea fits perfectly. I am also using it.

I do not understand.

So i must change m4 id with an interior id like ... tv , pc , clothings etc ? And put a m4 skin on it ? Example please ? ... Or try to explain it step by step ...

Yes that's what you must do. Already give'd a example here.

[stefutz101]

So you want to say if i put a m4 skin on TV (or another object ) i can fire with that TV ? ...

In inventory.lua i have this :

  
.... 
["M4 Test Mag"] = { 
{"M4 Test",31}, 
}, 
... 
  

I looked : https://wiki.sa-mp.com/wiki/Weapons and that 31 is m4 id , so i must change that id with another one and put m4 skin on that id ? :D

[stefutz101]

If i replace m4 id ( 31 ) to another one i have errors in debugscript when i'm trying to equip weapon .

(bad arg "giveweapon"[expected weapon-type at argument 2, got number "1208"). So yah i want to change m4 id ( 31 ) in 1208 ( a washing machine ) .

Ok .

So for replace model i know how :

--m4     
    txd = engineLoadTXD ( "weapons/m4.txd" ) 
    engineImportTXD ( txd, 1208 )     
    dff = engineLoadDFF ( "weapons/m4.dff", 1208 ) 
    engineReplaceModel ( dff, 1208 ) 

But i dont know where i must change the m4 id ... .

Pickups.lua

M4 Test",356,1,90,2.4}, 
 

Here ?

Weapon-type is different from weapon-model. You need to use a resource like bone_attach to use custom weapon model ID

[stefutz101]

I'm using bone_attach . How this resource can help me with my problem ?

This doesn't have anything to weapons.

Mihayy read up , i explain some things ...

Well 31 is the Weapon ID not Texture ID you need Texture ID witch is this:

[stefutz101]

So i must replace that 356(all from all gamemode) with another id and put skin on that id ?

yup but is a bit more complicated

[stefutz101]

I do it . But my new guns still don't have skins if i have weapon in hands , if i drop weapon it have skin ... .

[stefutz101]

Ok after 2 hours i do it . But i have a problem .
