custom shotgun skin wont show when player has shotgun

[X'tyfe]

being a master of pak editing im a little embarrassed to say i have no idea whats going on here   

heh anyways, i use a custom shotgun skin, but it changes back to default vanilla skin when a player has it in hand
no other weapons do this how it can change to the vanilla skin when its being replaced by a custom one is totally crazy

any ideas?

[PANTONE 7717C]

Hmm that's weird man, I just checked and it seems the shotgun has 3 different skins, as it is also the model that's being used for the weapon.md2 animations. But only 2 of them are being used.

- models/weapons/g_shotg/skin.pcx (in-game skin, I guess it's not being used at all in this case?)
- models/weapons/v_shotg/skin.pcx (view skin for cl_showgun)
- players/male/weapon.pcx (the one you see in-game. It's a different sized skin so it'll need some re-painting)

(female and cyborg must also have this skin)

I seem to have overlooked that one when I made that yellow-weapon pak   Oh well you can't think of everything.

i thought it was the one in the players folder too, i put the skin there and renamed it and it still changed to default
even if it is a different size it should still wrap around the model right? 

i wonder if id goofed when making the vwep pak?
