How to make holstered weapon disappear like big guns.

[RetralRX]

Hi,

I'm currently trying to make a weapon. A weapon connected to a backpack via a hose. I somewhat made the hose work with aiming and holding animations. But the problem is that when I holster the gun, the hose turned into a mess, with a lot of distortions. I've been trying various ways for almost 3 hours now. What I tried to accomplish is that when I holster the gun make the hose disappear. No luck so far. I separated the hose as a different mesh created an armor record for it so I can manipulate it with scripting. Tried to equip and unequip the hose via animations. Couldn't make it work. You can find the script below. Please I need help on this. I literally stuck at this point.

scn LamgSCRIPT

Begin onequip
     if player.getitemcount lamgcable == 0    , Hose as a seprarate armor record.
		player.additem lamgcable 1
		Player.equipItem lamgcable 1
	 endif

     if LAMG.isanimplaying holster == 1        , Lamg is the name of my weapon I tried it with player and activator still no luck
		 Player.unequipItem lamgcable 1
	 Endif

	 if LAMG.isanimplaying equip == 1
	    Player.equipItem lamgcable 1
	 Endif

End

Begin onunequip
     Player.unequipItem lamgcable 1
End
