Code Completing a weapon

[GrimTheWanderer]

In the course of assisting a friend with his custom server, I've come to an issue I can't find a solution for. From the killingfloor.ru community, my friend got a weapon which, as it turns out, was released slightly incomplete. It has full first person models, textures, and animations, and a fully textured static mesh. It lacks a third person model. Is this simply a matter of placing a pointer, or does it require different attachments/bones? Placing this in the Coding section as thats where this bughunt started, and hopefully only needs a line or two to resolve. Thanks in advance.

Which gun? If it's GPMG, it's made by someone else and you need to knock on someone else's doors since it's not made by the Russians (and those guys who made it have not even fixed it yet)....

The weapon in question is a Pancor Jackhammer that the person ported from, apparently, fallout new vegas.

The somewhat final version that was released is essentially complete, save for lacking a third person view model. It does, however, have full first person animations, textures, and a static mesh. My suspicion is that I simply need to add the right code in the right class file and it will be complete. Feel free to correct me, but I'm going off observations from other examples.
Thanks,

Awesome! That would go nicely with the steampunk Jackhammer that's already in-game. Let us know if you get the third-person model working.

Well if you need a hand, there is quite a handful of people here happily to give a hand. Good luck, looking good.

Heh, the reason I'm posting here is because I need help. The question I have is what is the code needed to display the third person mesh, or is there a file missing?
The pickup class contains the following, which I am fairly sure is part of the problem--

showMesh = none
	AmmoMesh = none
	InventoryType = Class'AOJackhammer.Jackhammer'

and my suspicion was that I needed a modified version of this line (borrowed from the stock aa12)

showMesh=SkeletalMesh'KF_Weapons3rd2_Trip.AA12_3rd'

However I am uncertain as to the correct syntax, or if there needs to be a pointer in the model, or what.

Maybe you should ask this question in the RU forum?

Flame, if it were possible I would buy you a drink. You not only just saved me a lot of time and trial and error, but dealing the prospect of machine translations losing my message in attempts to ask on the Russian forums. Thank you.

Spasibo..

It would also be great if you guys can fix that GPMG that someone made and release it, if possible.

Thanks Flame!
Time to celebrate by trying it out.

EDIT:
Really cool, everything seems to be working visually (1st & 3rd person). However, in listen/solo the mutator does not appear in the list.
I used WeaponsWorkshop mutator or Web Admin to add the weapon successfully.
It seems a bit OP for vanilla use, although I was only testing on hard. Also, not affected by perk bonuses and is always $3000 haha.

Thanks again Grim for the help! (Yes, I was the person he was trying to help.)
