How long is your custom draw animation, how long is the default draw animation, does the draw sequence contain the "Snap" argument in the QC, does it contain the "FadeIn" argument, and what does it look like when you view the sequence in Half-Life Model Viewer?

30 frames default draw animation my custom 1 is also 30 frames
here's the qc part for draw also i don't know how to play 1st person animations in the model viewer so i just test in game it would be good to know how to view it in model viewer though

$Sequence "bs_draw" {
"anims/draw_fixed.smd"
activity "ACT_MELEE_VM_DRAW" 1
{ event 5004 1 "Weapon_Machete.Draw" }
fadein 0.2
fadeout 0.2
node "raised"
fps 30
}

shall i post entire qc for you

To view first-person animations in the model viewer, open up the first-person arms model (weapons/c_models/c_[class]_arms.mdl), attach a weapon model if you want (I think there's an option to do that in the "File" menu of Half-Life Model Viewer), then choose the sequences you want in the "Sequences" tab or so.

Anyway, here, try replacing what you copied with this:

OMG ITS FIXED HOW DID U DO THAT DUDE THANKS I LOVE YOU THAT CODE DID THE TRICK thats amazing umm few more questions if i may if u looked at the video u may notice the view is different from the blender screenshot the camera settings in blender are set up with field of view 60 which is my tf2 settings but it doesn't look the same what other setting am i missing to match the tf2 view and blender camera view to be the same

does the fps and snap need to be lowercase? - ima test in a lil bit but let me know if it needs to be caps or lowercase

Nope. They also don't need to be upper-case. I just find it much more pleasant when each word in the commands or each letter of an acronym is upper-case.

- also what is fadein fadeout 0.2 that was there by default but what does it do? -

Those commands make it take 0.2 seconds to blend/fade in from the previous sequence or blend/fade out to the next sequence, which, as you can imagine, isn't really that nice for draw animations. (The blend/fade out is arguable, but as the idle animation should start with the pose at the end of the draw animation, there's no need for it to be there at all, and pretty much just messes with the idle animation for 0.2 seconds, so...)

On the other hand, "Snap" makes it so when switching to the sequence, it will instantly snap to the sequence, which is most likely what you're looking for in this case.

- as well as node "raised" -

I'm not quite sure about that one... but just leave it in.

- is there a wiki on all of this if so please link me that i'd appreciate that thanks ima test in a lil bit -

Yes, there is. It's called the Valve Developer Community, but don't be confused, it's entirely a wiki. The Valve Developer Community has lots of information on almost anything you want to know about modding the Source Engine. Here's the page on $Sequence: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/$sequence

thanks most of my questions have been answered but what about the proper camera view for tf2 settings do know that?

Nope. All I know is Team Fortress 2 might be basing the "60" degrees of field of view from when playing in 4:3, which makes you see more than 60 degrees in 16:9 (widescreen, wider than 4:3), where-as it might really be 60 degrees in Blender.

http://puu.sh/wua6m/ddee3b44ee.jpg trying to get the right side to be the same as left i can guess the left until it matches right but if there's a way to get it to be the same that would be good last question here's my finished 3rd person swing

https://gyazo.com/ee9bbd3a290051aff19c36fa2b071da2 as u can see there's some leg movement for realistic purposes but i think this will conflict when he walks and swings is there a seperate walk swing animation i couldn't find it this guy uses the medic bones how does the swing work exactly for walking it makes sense atm if he just stands still and swings but when he walks and does this how will it go exactly?

-Stuff about first-person-

...Well, one thing I can suggest is to move the camera to have X, Y, and Z co-ordinates of 0, 0 and 0. (Currently, the Z co-ordinate of the camera is above 0, while I'm not sure about the Y co-ordinate.) And also X, Y, and Z rotations of 0, 0, and 0 as well.

-Stuff about third-person-

I don't know at all. I don't really do much sequence-/animation-modding. All I can suggest is to try seeing what happens for yourself.

ok thanks for helping me fix that other issue though

i just noticed a small issue with the end of draw it freezes for like 1.5 seconds and then plays the idle in blender it doesn't do this watch this 5 second video to see exactly what's going on http://puu.sh/wzQFG/2f3f180402.mp4

That's more like 0.5 seconds, though, and that's caused by the server not yet telling the client to start the idle animation. This also happens without any mods installed.

ya this occured with bots training mode so this won't happen in my actual server?

does it have anything to do with fadein fadeout for idle or draw?

No. See above.
