For some reason when I swap the plasma pistols hlmt to the rocketlauncher its 3rd person jmad is still that of the plasma pistol. I fixed the first person one, but I would expect the 3rd person jmad to be in the hlmt of the rocket.. It doesn't seem so, and I can't find another jmad in the plasma pistol [weap] other than the two first persons.

the weapon tag controls what animation it will use, not the hlmt. There are two strings that will effect the animation call.

There is a jmad in the hlmt so I just thoughtl....

The two jmads in the [weap] tag are changed to the rocket, it looks fine in 1st person but in 3rd person masterchief still holds it like a plasma pistol.

I know you're the expert on animations, but aren't those the first person animations like gun_fp_idle that the weapon controls, and the hlmt controls the third person view?

Exactly what I thought but for some reason masterchief still holds my weapon like a plasma pistol even though its got the rocket jmad in the hlmt.
