[hlcoders] Creating a simple model

[Emiel Regis]

Hey,

I'm trying to render a simple model over a weapon spawn. It doesn't needs
any collissions or such, just being visible. I'm using this code, called
on Spawn() of the weapon spawner :

in header:

CBaseAnimating  pWeaponModel;

in cpp:

//Weapon model display code goes here
void CWeaponSpawner::CreateWeaponModel( void )
{
        // Create the object in the physics system
        int nSolidFlags = GetSolidFlags() | FSOLID_NOT_SOLID |
FSOLID_NOT_STANDABLE | FSOLID_TRIGGER;

    PrecacheModel( pWeaponPath );

        pWeaponModel.Spawn();
        pWeaponModel.SetModel( pWeaponPath );
        pWeaponModel.SetMoveType( MOVETYPE_NONE );
        pWeaponModel.SetSolid( SOLID_BBOX );

        pWeaponModel.VPhysicsInitStatic();
        pWeaponModel.AddSolidFlags( nSolidFlags );

        pWeaponModel.SetAbsOrigin( GetAbsOrigin() + Vector( 0, 5 , 0) );
    pWeaponModel.SetAbsAngles( GetAbsAngles() );
    pWeaponModel.FollowEntity( this, "weapon_bone" ); // attach to player
model

        pWeaponModel.RemoveEffects( EF_NODRAW);
}

However, nothing is drawn. The CBaseAnimating entity is shown in the
cl_showents.

An ideas?

Cheers,
Emiel Regis
