No Ejecting Brass On the 9mm

[Burtox]

Hey all, wondering if anyone knows of a solution for this problem, I searched the help forum and cant find an answer.

There are no shells being ejected from the 9mm Pistol in my game.

Any help or sugestion would be greatly appreciated, Thanls

Me too - what's up with this. I'm sure there was ejecting shells in the E3 video? Someone please help!

Anyone got any news on this anoying problem?

Still cant find anything on steampowerd forums, or elswhere for that matter

I'm not good with the SDK but i think someone needs to check if the animation part has been taken out. If it's still in, i think i could almost do it (almost!!). Can the shell animation for another gun be used on the handgun??

Anyone?? This has been an ongoing annoyance for the last couple of weeks.

Valve either removed the ejecting shell on the 9mm, or it is a common bug. No idea why the bug exists or they left it out; I loved seeing the shells pop out in the E3 videos.

Also, there seems to be a sound missing during reload of the 9mm. When the gun ejects the empty clip there's a proper sound, but no sound at all when sliding in a new clip. I know this sound was in the E3 videos as well.

Both points are very nitpicky but still would be nice to have

I'm sorry, but how is it annoying? Ejecting brass is eye candy at best. I'm surprised you even noticed.

Yeah well I did, get over it, next time be more constructive or don't bother.

It breaks the illusion of realism.

There is an illusion of realism? You take your games waaaaay too seriously dude.

It's annoying because it looked so cool in the E3 videos but they actively removed it from retail. It's a great effect ...of course it's eye candy - what's wrong with that?? Are you saying you wouldn't be annoyed if HL2 had 1/2 the graphics goodness it has?

I wouldn't mind if it was never included at any point... but it's a shame because it was there! Even if it's buggy or something... provide a console command to turn it on, I say! I think they removed it because you can fire the pistol so quickly the shells were too distracting or something (I wouldn't care).

Of course it doesn't matter in the end... just like not having water reflections or destructable watermelons wouldn't matter. But it's just COOL.
