Can anyone help me with adding new weapon model?
For test i maked new blaster model. I placed it correctly, so its ok in hands. But from 1st person view its looks very sad.

Yes, i know it need more detailed textures and stuff (just temporal textures now), but anyway... blaster_hands.md3 have no model. As far as i get, it contain model animation and offset of model from 1st person view. I wish move blaster a bit forward from point of view and closer to center of screen. Is there any easy way change this file? What should be there? Can i place different model (with hands for example) in this file? I need any help. Ye, i know that iGoggle way can help, but direct help always better. Thanx.

Instead of moving the gun to the center, move the eyes of the player to the right :P

The blaster_hand model is not the first person model, it is an empty model (i.e. no surfaces) that contains just a tag where the actual blaster model will be attached.
This means you can change the position by creating a new blaster_hand model where the tag is in a different position.
You could also create a different (e.g. more detailed) model for the 1st and 3rd person modes by altering the weapon.cfg file and specify separate weaponModel and weaponModel3rdPerson files.
