Just curious if someone could fix a problem I've had, but just now decided to ask about, with my STG44 reskin. There are no muzzle flashes that come out of the gun in 3rd person.

Is this fixable?

As far as I know, this is no problem with your gun. It´s a "problem" with DoD. If the are more than 20 (I believe it´s 20) players on a server, the 3rd person muzzleflashes disappear.

I would agree with you, because that happens to me too. But even when there are just a few people on the server, I've never seen a 3rd person muzzle flash from this model.

I've seen a few guys beside each other firing guns, all have muzzleflashes except the STG44. I don't know how it could have gotten messed up. I might have done something by accident, but I don't know what. :)

Oh sorry, I was wrong. I played with some bots a couple of minutes ago, and I was watching at some MP44 guys. I couldn´t see a muzzleflash too.

there is something wrong with your p_stg44.mdl model.

look at both models, the default one and yours and click "attachments" in HL model viewer. you will see the difference. there is only one attachment. but the default one has two, one for the position where the rounds come out, and one for the muzzleflash.

i've attached the default p_stg44.mdl file.

Thanks Kraut Killer. I fixed it up! :D
