How to check what my model is?

I have a particle effect with vertex emiter by:
vec_for_vertex(my.skill70,my,28);
effect(some_effect, 10* time_step,my.skill70, nullvector);

I use ent_morph to change entitys models...
now I want to do something like this:
if(my.model == "model_1"){vec_for_vertex(my.skill70,my,28);}
if(my.model == "model_2"){vec_for_vertex(my.skill70,my,59);}
effect(some)effect, 10* time_step,my.skill70, nullvector);

How to check it? What my model is?

or any other skill number?

no... how to store model name?
if some entity (but not player) changed his model by ent_morph
how he can know what model is he using?
how to tell the entity what is his model?
like
if(my.model == "model_1") of'couse this doesn't work... its just example what I want to do


Never say never.

Alright, how about add the vertex no. to your entity's name
f.e. :

string model1 = <monster28.mdl>;

then str_trunc "28" from model1 and store it to a variable?

just a thought, haven't try it.

Eureka !!!
string entname[30];
str_for_entfile (entname, you); // retrieve the file name, like "waffe1.mdl"

so
if(str_for_entfile(entname, me) == "model_1.mdl"){my.skill70 = 48;}

I hope it'll work
will check this out tomorow

Oh! I suppose your models were stored in
the working directory not already in WED.

Anyway, it's up to you.

Tompo, you can do it like this, but this is the slowest of all mentioned solutions...


Always learn from history, to be sure you make the same mistakes again...

If using str_for_entfile(...) to get model file's name,
you must have it in WED before doing so, you can try it
tomorrow.
