Hi, For my shooter the player must have a gun. This gun should always be visible, so if I stand close to a wall, it must not get through the wall. So I thought, I'll disable the depth test, but that causes the gun to get rendered incorrectly (every part get's drawn upon eachother). How can I fix this?

You can simply render it last with the depth test enabled but with clearing the depth buffer before you render it.
