How would i go about making a npc hand the player a handgun???

Like in Half-Life 2: Episode 1 when barney hands gordon the crowbar??

Can it be done with a normal Rebel and a Handgun Instead of a Crowbar??

You can use attachments to "give" the citizen a handgun, and then give it to the player by using the give console command and hiding the weapon in the citizen's hand.


Also change the texture of the dock. Docks are rarely tile. -Facepunch

I could be wrong now, but one of the later sdk_trainstation example VMF files in the sdkcontent/hl2/maps folder should include the sequence where Barney hands over the crowbar.


Why snark works.

I only know what I remember of what I heard about how they did the Barney crowbar scene (the one where he take it out of a gear and lets the bridge fall).
Look up a tutorial on attachments and that should give you all the info you need.

The "give weapon_pistol" console command will give the player the gun perfectly fine, you can trigger it after the player walks into a trigger near the NPC's hand.

Just decompile the eli lab 2 map where Alyx hands the grav gun to you. Look at how it's done and change to your likings.
