Kinneizer:

from the description:

As with all weapon script mods, this has to be on the server to work. You can play single player or create a game lobby and choose 'Local Hosting' as the server type, and it'll work. If you join someone else's game, all you'll get is some misbehaviour of the Uzi on-screen.

from the description of a closely-related mod:

If you have this mod on your client but you're playing on a server that doesn't have it, all you'll get is the M10 reflected to be left-handed.

It was on the left hand, but then I found out it was another add-on :p

Buggy how?
Sanji's Toes Nov 17, 2014 @ 11:37am 
I hosted a server and it was buggy

RinoClaw: did you play single player, host an online game or join an online game? If you joined an online game, see the description: 'As with all weapon script mods, this has to be on the server to work. You can play single player or create a game lobby and choose 'Local Hosting' as the server type, and it'll work. If you join someone else's game, all you'll get is some misbehaviour of the Uzi on-screen.'

it bugs my wep ._.

As for whether it's good against special infected, it does alright against a few in the video on this page and in the video on the 'MP5 replaces M10' version's page: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P_0LXBe07_g

Aim for the head, and fire short bursts unless it's too close to miss.
Sableagle  [author] Nov 15, 2014 @ 6:18am 
What's happening with the left hand thing is that you're trying to use this mod on someone else's server that isn't running it. That's what I mean by 'misbehaviour on-screen' in the description.
вαтαк Nov 14, 2014 @ 4:55pm 
um when i use the gun my charcter holds it on his left hand any way to fix it?
вαтαк Nov 14, 2014 @ 4:52pm 
but its still a god gun againts the speacial infected right?
Sableagle  [author] Mar 24, 2014 @ 8:41pm 
Just to add the info, buffed Uzi in Dead Center and No Mercy: 2.130 shots per kill, 0.470 kills per shot. Not very impressive.
Overall until tonight, it was on 3.647 shots per kill, 0.274 kills per shot, making it the lamest by far. Of course, some of that was with the mod and a lot of it was on Advanced or Expert, so it's not quite a fair comparison. Still, double pistols beat the default Uzi.
Time Crisis II Mar 22, 2014 @ 9:52pm 
oh cool, i checked on l4d wiki so your mp5 actually does more damage than like the m16 which is 33? Nice.
Time Crisis II Mar 22, 2014 @ 9:45pm 
ok thanks alot. I like yr mod. Have been using it often for quite some time.
Sableagle  [author] Mar 22, 2014 @ 4:42pm 
KXM: More than doubled.

Default 9mm pistol damage is 35. 3.179 shots per kill, 0.316 kills per shot.
Default Uzi damage is 22. No stats yet.
Default M10 damage is 33. 1.896 shots per kill, 0.527 kills per shot.
My MP5 damage is 48. 1.561 shots per kill, 0.641 kills per shot.
My Uzi damage is 48. No stats yet.
My 9mm M10 damage is 35. 1.525 shots per kill, 0.656 kills per shot.
My .45 M10 damage is 40. 1.329 shots per kill, 0.753 kills per shot.
My .380 M11 damage is 18. 2.596 shots per kill, 0.385 kills per shot.
Revised .380 M11 mod damage is 24. 2.051 shots per kill, 0.488 kills per shot.

Stats for M10 variants are for campaign mode on Normal, and include shooting at specials and tanks as well as the common infected. The numbers for the pistols are since I started playing, so they include all difficulties and some other game modes. The .380 version climbs a bit in use but the group stays tight, so it's pretty good for spamming a Jockey's or Charger's head.
Time Crisis II Mar 20, 2014 @ 6:14pm 
wats the damage for the mp5? Is it the same as the uzi it replaced?
Sableagle  [author] Feb 3, 2014 @ 9:49am 
Probably you were playing on a server that provided the default MP5 along the way, and that's what you found the first time. If it had a 50-round magazine, that's what happened. Mine has the real-world 30-rd magazine.
JX44 Feb 3, 2014 @ 12:52am 
ok but I mean in the same game like they are two different weapons can you explain that?
Sableagle  [author] Feb 2, 2014 @ 9:59am 
"Uzi with messed up animations" is what you'll get if you have this mod in place but you're playing on a server that doesn't. This'll work single-player or on a Local Hosting server if you're the lobby leader.
JX44 Feb 1, 2014 @ 10:13pm 
cool when it works but I can find an MP5 that works then later find a Uzi with messed up animations
KrazyKid Nov 26, 2013 @ 6:45pm 
plz make costomized MP5.
Pečko Nov 23, 2013 @ 11:05am 
i agree with AJMetal :Horzine:
Ajax The Mighty Nov 14, 2013 @ 4:57pm 
yeah for some reason this does not work wich sucks because i love all your mods so how do i make this work
bloodmoon♀ Nov 12, 2013 @ 8:01am 
Erstklassig umgesetztes Konzept. Genau so ist eine MP5. Schön wäre es, wenn es die vielleicht auch mit Trommel - oder Doppelmagazin gäbe? Habe diese schon im Einsatz gesehen.
Sableagle  [author] Oct 21, 2013 @ 9:43am 
That's sort of what happens to someone playing on a client computer that doesn't have the mod active connected to a server that is using it. If you're playing single player or you're the lobby leader on a Local Hosted server, that shouldn't happen to you.

As a rather crude way around that problem, try the Uzi as a replacement for the Uzi instead:

Dankest Spyro Oct 21, 2013 @ 9:10am 
yeah the ''MP5'' is a UZI
and if you shot it will be back to an MP5 and UZI again
Yahiiiaa Oct 12, 2013 @ 7:43am 
hes right
Sableagle  [author] Oct 8, 2013 @ 9:39am 
That's a problem with the supplied game, unfortunately. The G3 (same design from the same manufacturer, 7.62x51mm not 9x19mm) has the same animation with the same extra time before it acknowledges the full magazine. I have noted this issue on the "we want L4D3" group and a "L4D3 opinions" thread. It bugs me.

http://steamcommunity.com/groups/ww_L4D3
http://forum.l4dmaps.com/viewtopic.php?p=69711#p69711

arby26 on l4dmaps.com does have an MP5 model to replace the Uzi but it doesn't change the script, and when I tried to combine it with this script to use his model and animation with my mag size, rate of fire and so on, I got invisible gun syndrome, which is never good.
Cheerios Dust Oct 7, 2013 @ 7:02pm 
not sure if it's a bug, but the gun's reload time is a second or two longer than the reload animation
it might be on my end, but worth checking I think
ironman733 Oct 6, 2013 @ 9:11am 
awesome
ducky Sep 29, 2013 @ 6:42am 
Pros -
for the uzi, I thought the silenced one was a bad choice
Lovely porting and no lag - hooray
cons -
Cons? why did I add it :p
NEO_NoiseBomb Sep 24, 2013 @ 1:34pm 
I get it
but l4d2 is at 100% while downloading and it won't go further

Sableagle  [author] Sep 24, 2013 @ 1:24pm 
Yeah, Steam's really fond of eating bandwidth allowances that way.

This mod doesn't actually include a skin. The model and skin were already there, just normally only available for German players. What the mod does is tell the game to use the MP5 model instead of the Uzi model.

My preferred method for removing mods was to drag the .vpk file from
Steam\steamapps\common\left 4 dead 2\left4dead2\addons\
to
Desktop\L4D2 addons not in use\
but I think that only works for the manually downloaded ones, not the subscribed ones. I'm not really sure how subscription works, but I suspect it'll notice the gap and re-download. You could copy it across, unsubscribe and then, if it's still there, delete it from the ...\addons\ folder, I suppose.
NEO_NoiseBomb Sep 24, 2013 @ 12:46pm 
but now I need to try again to re-install l4d2 because steam wants to update
NEO_NoiseBomb Sep 24, 2013 @ 12:43pm 
but wait!
after I uninstalled the weapon skin,it deleted the old smg model along with the add on.
which has caused problems reinstalling l4d2 and playing the game.
it took me all day to re-install left 4 dead 2
Sableagle  [author] Sep 24, 2013 @ 11:02am 
Shadow, that's what happens if it's on the client but not the server. If you want it in multiplayer, you have to make your own lobby, select Local Hosting server and set sv_consistency 0 in the developer console (have to enable that somewhere in options, then bring it up with the button to the left of 1)
NEO_NoiseBomb Sep 23, 2013 @ 4:34pm 
it works in single player but not in multiplayer, it shows the SMG(regular) on the left of the screen in multiplayer, fix pls
Agent Turtle Sep 13, 2013 @ 1:15pm 
thx it worked great!
Sableagle  [author] Sep 8, 2013 @ 2:07am 
No, it's Heckler and Koch's 9mm MachinenPistole 5, built to the same design as their HK33 and HK53 5.56mm weapons and the G3 7.62mm battle rifle and its G3-SG1 variant that's also in the game. The weapon was actually included with the game, but only available to players who said they were German when they installed it. This mod tells the game to use the MP5 model in place of the Uzi model and also gives it rather better behaviour, like the real magazine size and rate of fire and more damage than the pistols in the same calibre because it's got a longer barrel.
Powerthrust Sep 7, 2013 @ 7:58pm 
is this the silenced uzi
Skoot Ski Aug 23, 2013 @ 2:34pm 
woops mp5
Skoot Ski Aug 23, 2013 @ 2:34pm 
the uzi is from counterstrike
Sableagle  [author] Aug 23, 2013 @ 10:41am 
I probably ought to have copied the full description over from the M10 version of this mod.

This works if you host the server, e.g.:
Single Player
Play Online -> More Search Options -> Create A Game Lobby -> Server Options -> Local Hosting

If you're hosting online, you should enable deceloper console, go into it and enter this:

sv_consistency 0

... so other can join you, rather than getting booted to main menu for not having the mod.

If you try to use this mod on a server that doesn't have this mod, you'll just get the default weapon reflected to be left-handed.
Agent Turtle Aug 22, 2013 @ 3:32pm 
wow doesnt work its just backwards
and dissapears when i shoot -.-
Spud Aug 19, 2013 @ 2:42am 
thanks! i can now get rid of that ugly gun!
Skoot Ski Aug 9, 2013 @ 12:36pm 
nvm it works ty
Sableagle  [author] Aug 9, 2013 @ 12:20pm 
Just subscribed and tried it.

Works for me.

Open up your add-ons menu and check that you don't have another mod clashing with it.

Also, maybe sv_consistency 0 helps. I get kicked from single-player mode due to weapon_gnome.txt inconsistency ... somehow ... without that.
Skoot Ski Aug 8, 2013 @ 3:52pm 
its not replaceing the uzi when im on singleplayer
Sableagle  [author] Aug 8, 2013 @ 10:07am 
Can you try to explain what's not working?
