invisible guns and players

[Zyfex]

sometimes, players are invisible and sometimes your gun is invisible (only if starting equip). only happens as client i think

Yeah, this is true. For guns, the glitch goes away upon shooting, but for melee, you actually have to hit something, I think.

this is the problem i have everyday in every server speacly when host set start items then the guns are invincible and melee weapons too then to fix it i have to shoot all the weapons or drop all then pick up i hate this bug.

Here is video proof of the invisible guns. The video plays a few 'normal' rounds. Then, at 00:49, (the round after some new players join) the guns I begin with are invisible and there is no description of them in my HUD in the top right until after I shoot them. The axe also appears invisible, but my melee is fists.

I sometimes have the same bug too, exactly same. But ye' can make them visible again by shooting with them and so on. Though it's quite funny to run with invisible weapon.

I found one possible cause for this that's fixed after Pre-Alpha 1.8.8.
Basically if the packaged containing your equipment info came before you finished loading the game on the client the package was discarded. Now I queue it to process it after the loading is done. That also explains why it only happens sometimes.
