You alpha it.

And this actually belongs in the skinning forum.

no its place is here. its is not always the case that it can be alphaed out. for some models without weapons there are some at metalplanet. i dont read french but it has many downloads here.

It's pretty dang easy to model the weapon away (assuming, of course, you want to go into modelling and got all the software you need) -- just select all the vertices and shrink the thing to a dot, then cram the dot somewhere into the model. I just de-weaponed a Doomguard, Satyr and One-Headed Ogre that way.

I doubt it makes any functional difference to the game whether you shrink the weapon or alpha its skin, but I feel like I've accomplished something. 8))

Actually, Alpha'ing the weapon would be the best, since even you make the weapon really small, it's still there, leeching the comp's CPU-power.

in Paint Shop Pro, you don't alpha the weapon out, for some reason it doesn't work emote_confused but if you have a modeling program its easier than if you could do it in Paint Shop Pro just do what biflspud said :D

Not true, i alpha weapons out in psp, taking the total time of 30 seconds. Maybe if you dont flatten the image it will work for you. (just use trial and error till it works, im sure you can get it work)

Well, it's faster to render a small small weapon than a big one. Even with completely alpha:ed out textures, it still needs to be rendered.
