If you want NPCs to be able to use these weapons, you should:

1. Decompile the original w_model.
2. Decompile the reskinned w_model.
3. Replace the reskinned model's animations with the original's animations.
4. Recompile the reskinned model.

You will need tools like:

GWTool: To access the reskinned model in a .gma file.
Crowbar: To compile/decompile models.
GCFScape: To access the original weapon models.

no more severs! single player!

i wish you whuold fix this and be brave such a great mod..ruined

(Can we hit 5000 likes?)

Damn, this is so sad. Great addon though.

He said in the DESCRIPTION that he has no idea why npc's are not shooting with some of the weapons

Why NPC can't shoot?

Oh np! im already happy we got some ME weapons in the workshop :P

Probably not. As far as I know, I have lost the source files of these weapons. And I also no longer use and have the required 3D-Modelling Software to create models for Source games. Sorry.

Will you make more weapons? i just noticed how the last comment is 2012 wow

Paragon -__-

Please try the steps I explained above in the description.

I uninstalled the mod and I still have mass effect weapons, is there any way to fix this?

I'll have to keep it in mind then, as there's no direct link option and I haven't gotten around to grabbing Gmod yet.

They should also work in HL2 if you extract them.

Out of interest would these work with HL2 itself or just Gmod?

It would mean adding a whole new skeleton onto the viewmodel, rigging and worse, doing all the animations myself! And I really don't have the time for it at the moment.

we like weapons that support g_hands. so why not make these support g_hands?

Fix what? You're like the typical player:
Tells nothing and yet wants everything - If you want me to fix "them", I need to know what to fix.

fix these or face the downpourof dislikes

Read the description

i unsubscribed but its still there

You can no longer have clientside skins on the Half Life 2 and Garry's Mod weapons.

This is lame. I reinstalled gmod and since the update only the sound for the weapons work. Anyone know how to fix it?

i downloaded this skin because i have a xenomorph fast zombie skin, not just a regular skin, i also changed it's head texture and added new sounds myself (btw, should i upload this workshop, i mean i changed it kinda a lot of times over the past weeks)

Oh, yea it pisses me off aswell. I made myself a physgun with a screen on it telling me the propname I'm looking at. But that doesn't work anymore since GM13

i know, i said that pisses me off, i never installed this addon, it was just gone

It probably not this skin pack which removed your skin. Today or yesterday the new Viewmodels for HL2-Weapons came out, which probably forbid clientside skins.

because my m41a smg skin is gone because of this

So why are you angry if you already know?

you know you can remove this, because gmod ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dosen't support weapon skins anymore, and it appears i am the only one angry about this

the only thing thats working with the NPC weapon thing is the crossbow

And to fix the Ai peoblems create a AI script then place it in the scripts folder

oh yeah you have already got the textures please try and make the swep because It would be less buggy if it was a swep

ok I should check that even though it's gone maybe I just need to re install it unistall it then do what you said

This bug is new to me and all I can say is read the description:

You could try deleting a file called "masseffect_3_replace_for_hl2_104664686.gma" in your Garry's Mod folder which is located at "<YourPathToSteam>\SteamApps\<YourAccountName>\garrysmod\garrysmod\addons\".
I don't know if that works, but it should redownload the addon and probably fix the problem.

ok that was a overreaction but I really need that question anwsered so please respond

Erm..... one question HOW DO YOU RESTART GARRY'S MOD BECAUSE THIS BROKE ALMOST EVERY ONE OF THE MAPS i HAVE PLUS IT IS RUINING MY GAME HOW DO I FIX THIS please just tell me whats wrong I can't see any weapons at al or any maps please tell me how to fix this :( .

I'm not sure what the problem with that is but I highly guess it's got to do something with reload times and shoot animations in the view models

the bots seem to be able to fire only a few of the weapons. like the pistol and the shotgun

what map is that? please tell me i have been looking for a good airport map

Just to reassure the people who wanted to uninstall it, it worked on my Windows computer. 7 to be exact.
You know, that trick to..
and...
the second to last section of the...
yeah.

Can you upload them all seperately?

Better a while then never!

I've installed a new Windows, etc.
So first I'll have to set up XSI and all that, so IF I was gonna make that it would take a while.

Hi could u do it with the star wars weapons too pls :(

npcs can't fire with this mod

oh. sorry man. its just kinda choppy and off. these are better than anything I could do, so still, awesome job.

If you'd like to make them better, please go on.
"These models were my first attempts of making weapons with view and world models!": I find them kinda good for a first attempt :)
