Weapons. . .

I've seen in screenshots of weapons that you can get, the units don't have their original weapons. Do you have to reskin them that way?

You can re-skin the weapon but it's not as versital. A common method is to remove the weapon (via skinning) and attach a weapon model using triggers. You could also edit the actual model and not the skin.

ya or u can just make the exact same model and just change the weapon
