Poggy Badge Props

Overview#

This pack only adds 3D models. It has no settings and no commands of its own. Poggy Badges is what pins them on a character: you give a job's grade one of these model names as its prop.

• Law badges from Deputy to Commissioner: sheriff, under sheriff, town and state marshals, city police, sergeant, chief of police, detective, rangers, constable, bailiff, jailer, railroad police, express guard, game warden, bounty hunter and more.
• Eight town badges: Valentine, Rhodes, Strawberry, Blackwater, Saint Denis, Annesburg, Tumbleweed and Armadillo.
• Medical and civic badges: Doctor, Physician, Nurse, Undertaker, Veterinarian, Mayor, Fire Brigade, Post & Telegraph and Press.
• Five armbands: medic, mourning, posse, quarantine and press, each in nine sizes so they fit a bare arm or a thick coat.

Poggy Badges already includes a badge-flash picture for every prop in this pack.

Requirements#

Installation#

1. Download poggy_badge_props from your Cfx portal and put the folder in your server's resources folder.
2. In server.cfg, start the pack before Poggy Badges:

   ensure poggy_core
   ensure poggy_badge_props
   ensure poggy_badge

3. Restart the server. Players download the models when they join.
4. Give a job a badge from the pack (see Using it in game).

Using it in game#

Give a job a badge

1. Open /poggy → Poggy Badge → Badges → Badge sets.
2. Open the set for the job (or add one) and pick a grade.
3. Set Prop model to a name from this pack, for example p_poggy_badge_sheriff.
4. Set Badge image to the matching picture: the same name with poggy_ in place of p_poggy_badge_, for example poggy_sheriff.
5. Click Save & Restart.

To try a prop on your own character first, admins can type /bprop <model>.

Armbands

The game cannot stretch a prop, so each armband comes as nine models, _s1 (smallest) to _s9 (largest). For the grade that wears it, turn on advanced settings and set:

The same grade in config.lua:

[0] = {
    badge    = "poggy_armband_medic",
    prop     = "p_poggy_armband_medic_s3",
    sizes    = { "p_poggy_armband_medic_s1", "p_poggy_armband_medic_s2", "p_poggy_armband_medic_s3",
                 "p_poggy_armband_medic_s4", "p_poggy_armband_medic_s5", "p_poggy_armband_medic_s6",
                 "p_poggy_armband_medic_s7", "p_poggy_armband_medic_s8", "p_poggy_armband_medic_s9" },
    showProp = "p_poggy_badge_doctor",
},

Players then type /badge and move the Size slider until it fits, and save a preset per outfit.

Model names#

Badges

The badge picture for each is poggy_ plus the part after p_poggy_badge_: p_poggy_badge_town_rhodes uses poggy_town_rhodes.

Armbands

The elbow end of each armband is a little narrower than the shoulder end.

Troubleshooting#

The prop does not appear

Check the pack is started before poggy_badge in server.cfg, and that the model name is spelled exactly. The F8 console prints Failed to load model for a wrong name.

There is no Size slider for an armband

The grade needs its Sizes list (all nine names, smallest first), and Poggy Badges 1.4.0 or newer.

The armband starts on the chest

Poggy Badges 1.5.0 or newer starts pack armbands on the left arm by itself. On 1.4.0, set the grade's Starting bone to an upper arm.

The flash shows no picture

Check Badge image is the poggy_ name (for example poggy_sheriff, not the prop name). The pictures come with Poggy Badges 1.4.0 or newer.

Updating#

This pack is not updated by poggy_core's updater. A new version is a new download from your Cfx portal: replace the folder and restart the whole server, never restart poggy_badge_props with players online. Poggy Badges itself still updates the usual way: see Updates.

From 1.0.2 the pack runs no script and no longer needs poggy_core. Nothing changes in server.cfg.

In 1.0.1 the armbands became wider side to side than front to back, to sit closer to the sleeve. A position saved before that may need a small nudge in /badge.
