Multiplayer FPS. Which Arms should i use?
Hey
I have a question and i hope someone can help me. I'm currently making a fps which will be multiplayer. Now i have a soldier-model with arms. So my question is how i should go about making it so that the soldier is really holding the weapon. Currently i'm using weapon-models with arms attached to them. Should I animate the player's model with the weapon or should i use my weapons with arms and cut the arms of the soldier's model? Or is there another way?
I hope someone can help me.

If I understand the question correctly.. You want the players (Viewing the scene from a first person perspective) to only see the weapon and arms of the soldier while every other player who looks at a given player to see the full body of the soldier?
In that case I would probably use the "Culling Mask" property of the cameras and make a script that works something like this:
if(networkView.isMine){
Disable_Culling_For_Third_Person();
}
else {
Disable_Culling_For_First_Person();
}
This is not something I've actually tried doing before but it's certenly the method I would try out first.
Thx that's nearly the exact thing what i was looking for Thank you very much i didn't thought of that.
