TF2 Weaponmodel Override
A custom attribute that lets you change a weapon's worldmodel and viewmodel; the arms model and its animations.
I didn't make any of these models you're seeing. Credits go to: the sentry pistol original creator, the wolverine claws original creator and VSH Rewrite for the merasmus wand and arms models

How to apply
You can apply these attributes via config with whatever plugin you're using ( if there is enough demand I can create one ).
Since this attribute acts like a TF2 attribute, you can utilize TF2Attribute's TF2Attrib_SetFromStringValue or any other native to set it. You can also retrieve the value with the given API.
Example:
"set weapon model" "models/weapons/custommodels/wolverine/c_machete.mdl"<-- It sets the weapon model to this"set viewmodel arms" "models/weapons/custommodels/wolverine/c_sniper_arms.mdl"<--- It sets the arms ( including animations ) to this"set viewmodel bonemerged arms" "models/weapons/c_models/c_pyro_arms.mdl"<-- It sets the visible arms model to this but it keeps the animations ofset viewmodel arms( or the original arms model if it's absent )
Known Issues
- You can't change the demoshield model.
- Mediguns and flamethrowers don't work properly.
- Mediguns: The beam won't appear ( that's because it's client-side ). [ This can get fixed by making a beam ourselves and parenting it ]
- Flamethrowers: The hands won't appear. [ This can get fixed by spawning the arms ourselves ]
Requirements
- Nosoop's Econ Dynamic ( It injects custom attributes to act like real ones )
- TF2 Utils
- TF2 Attribute ( >1.7.2 )
