Thanks for the help, but I was wondering, is it possible to do this
clientside?

Alright, I have tested this and it works, Simply, in sdk_player.h (if you
did create mod from scratch) or hl2_player.h (if you did modify half-life 2)
or hl2mp_player.h (if you did modify half-life 2 Deathmatch) you need to add
the following:
#define BOX_MODEL_NAME "models/props/barrelLid.mdl"
//
//
//
//
class CBox : public CBaseProp
{
public:
public:
DECLARE_CLASS( CBox, CBaseProp );
typedef CBaseProp BaseClass;
CBox();
//boolCreateVPhysics( void );
voidSpawn( void );
virtual void Precache();
DECLARE_DATADESC();
};
Then somewhere under class CSDKPlayer (or CHL2Player, or CHL2MPPlayer) add
CBox *pBox; // This makes it a global variable so you can call it in both
the InitialSpawn, and on death.
In sdk_player.cpp (or hl2_player.cpp or hl2mp_player.cpp) add the following
somewhere near the top.
BEGIN_DATADESC( CBox )
END_DATADESC()
LINK_ENTITY_TO_CLASS( box, CBox );
void CBox::Precache()
{
SetModel( BOX_MODEL_NAME );
BaseClass::Precache();
}
CBox::CBox()
{
}
//-
// Purpose:
//-
void CBox::Spawn( void )
{
Precache();
SetModelName( MAKE_STRING( BOX_MODEL_NAME ) );
}
Then find the InitialSpawn() function and add the following:
pBox = CREATE_ENTITY( CBox, "box" );
Vector origin = GetAbsOrigin();
origin.z += 65; //Spawn above player, can be tweaked
pBox->SetAbsOrigin(origin);
pBox->SetAbsAngles(GetAbsAngles());
pBox->Spawn();
pBox->SetParent(this);
Then, goto the Event_Killed( const CTakeDamageInfo &info )
and add UTIL_Remove(pBox);
That should be it, hope this helped.

Re: [hlcoders] How to Create a Model Attached to the Player using only code.
-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Yes, sorry I forgot to add, //To parent it to the player (so that it moves with the player) pBox->SetParent(this); Im not 100% sure this will work, if it doesn't then in your original class change CPhysicsProp to CBaseProp, if that doesn't work change it to CDynamicProp. I can't test it right now, but tell me which one works.

RE: [hlcoders] How to Create a Model Attached to the Player using only code.
Unless I'm grossly mistaken, this will spawn the box, but won't attach it to the player - I may be misreading the original request, but I thought it was more about spawning the box, attaching it to the player then detaching it when the player died. So Michaels code is a good start, but a bit more information is required to get the box moving with the player and falling away when the player dies. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Michael Kramer Sent: 08 June 2006 05:01 To: hlcoders@list.valvesoftware.com Subject: Re: [hlcoders] How to Create a Model Attached to the Player using only code. -- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] ahh, that formatted all weird, I will send it again: > Somewhere in player.cpp (or sdk_player.cpp, or hl2_player.cpp) you need to add a class like this: -- ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlcoders

Sorry, it commented some of it, This should work now,:
Somewhere in player.cpp (or sdk_player.cpp, or hl2_player.cpp) you need to
add a class like this:

your .mdl of the model

void Spawn( void );
virtual void Precache();
DECLARE_DATADESC();
};
BEGIN_DATADESC( CBox )
END_DATADESC()
LINK_ENTITY_TO_CLASS( box, CBox );
bool CBox::CreateVPhysics()
{
// Create the object in the physics system
IPhysicsObject *pPhysicsObject = VPhysicsInitNormal( SOLID_BBOX, 0,false );
// Make sure I get touch called for static geometry
if ( pPhysicsObject )
{
int flags = pPhysicsObject->GetCallbackFlags();
flags |= CALLBACK_GLOBAL_TOUCH_STATIC;
pPhysicsObject->SetCallbackFlags(flags);
}
return true;
}

Alright this is what you need to have.
Somewhere in player.cpp (or sdk_player.cpp, or hl2_player.cpp) you need to
add a class like this:
#define BOX_MODEL_NAME "models/props/box.mdl" //replace with actual path to
your .mdl of the model
class CBox : public CPhysicsProp //Or just CBaseProp
{
public:
DECLARE_CLASS( CBox, CPhysicsProp );
typedef CPhysicsProp BaseClass;
CBox();
bool CreateVPhysics( void );
void Spawn( void );
virtual void Precache();
DECLARE_DATADESC();
};
BEGIN_DATADESC( CBox )
END_DATADESC()
LINK_ENTITY_TO_CLASS( box, CBox );
bool CBox::CreateVPhysics()
{
// Create the object in the physics system
IPhysicsObject *pPhysicsObject = VPhysicsInitNormal( SOLID_BBOX, 0, false );
// Make sure I get touch called for static geometry
if ( pPhysicsObject )
{
int flags = pPhysicsObject->GetCallbackFlags();
flags |= CALLBACK_GLOBAL_TOUCH_STATIC;
pPhysicsObject->SetCallbackFlags(flags);
}
return true;
}
void CBox::Precache()
{
SetModel( BOX_MODEL_NAME );
BaseClass::Precache();
}
CBox::CBarrelLid()
{
}
//-
// Purpose:
//-
void CBox::Spawn( void )
{
Precache();
SetModelName( MAKE_STRING( BOX_MODEL_NAME ) );
CreateVPhysics();
}
///Then somehwere in either the player Spawn or Initial Spawn, add something
like
CBox *pBox = CREATE_ENTITY( CBox, "box" );
Vector origin = GetAbsOrigin(); //Get the players origin
origin.z += 50; //adjust accordingly, this makes it spawn above the player
pBox->SetAbsOrigin( origin );
pBox->SetAbsAngles( GetAbsAngles() );
pBox->Spawn();
I hope this helps,
