A relatively simple weapon holstering thing. Should work with most weapons* and by default auto-holsters your weapon in ladders à la CoD, Battlefield, or Apex Legends.[h1][/h1] Heavily recommend using my ladder fix with this.[h1][/h1]

HOW TO USE: Press 0 to holster or unholster your weapon.

Supports Apex Legends: Holster/Melee SWEP by default, but is not a requirement. It's not a requirement but a personal recommendation.[h1][/h1] The default holster also supports VManip. [hr][/hr][h3]For third-person ladder climbing animations, install Extended Player Animations with at least DynaBase alongside it.[/h3] [hr][/hr]You can disable/enable ladder holstering or set a custom holster weapon in Spawnmenu > Options > Chen's Addons > Simple Holster. *that let you swap from your weapon like normal.[h1][/h1] If you want a custom bind, open the console (SHIFT+ESC), run "bind h holsterweapon", and press H to holster/unholster. If you do not have one, just press holster key to receive it. You can use any other key for it too.

Important to note: [*]Hasn't been largely tested in multiplayer, so bugs may remain. [*]TTT compatible (will use stock TTT holster weapon, lmk if something doesn't work right.) [*]You can disable automatic ladder holstering in the settings, or using "holsterweapon_ladders 0". [*]Weapon Holsters with Editor is recommended if you want holstered weapons on your playermodel. [*]If you drop your weapon using a weapon dropping script, you'll probably automatically switch to holstered state. [*]You can call it any time using SimpleHolster() global function in your own scripts on the client. [*]Procedural holster animations for weapons without one are planned. [*]Works fine with Holster/Unequip Weapon, even if it's mostly redundant.[/list]

bugs & known issues: [*]ladders in source are notoriously jank so things might not always work correctly with every single weapon base [*]if you find yourself unable to shoot or reload after climbing a ladder, manually holster your weapon[/list]

"Where's that gun from?" [*]Weapon in the ladder gif is Intervention from [ArcCW] Modern Warfare 2. [*]Weapon in shooting range gif is Beretta M92FS/Vertec from Tactical RP/Tactical Intervention pack(s). [*]Weapon in white room gif is KSG-12 from [CW2] Modern Warfare 3 Redux. [*]Weapon in ship-deck gif is M16 from M9K Assault Rifles.[/list]
