How can I make player sprite to change if I switch weapon?
For example: If I use fist, player sprite switches (into one with fist)

I'd assume a LOT of A_JumpIfInInventory checks.
Every time the weapon raises and lowers, give or take a "WieldingWeaponX" dummy inventory item. And on the PlayerPawn, have an A_JumpIfInventory check for the item, then jump to the appropriate set of sprites.

Actually if I remember right there's a bit of code, something like PrefferedSkin or something... I'm not sure though, since I don't code. I do know FOR SURE that it's been done though.

Weapon.PreferredSkin "<skinname>"
and define the skin in a SKININFO or S_SKIN lump

Don't use S_SKIN if you plan on putting it with the rest of your mod.
Any wad with an S_SKIN lump, the rest is ignored (except sprites in SS_START/SS_END lumps because they're part of the SKIN namespace). SKININFO only works with Skulltag/Zandronum.
