custom shotgun weapon question

fustrun · Post by **fustrun** » Wed Sep 16, 2009 7:08 am

I have replaced the model for the M3 to a winchester, http://www.fpsbanana.com/skins/40847 now i made the cone spread really tight and it's one hell of a powerfull weapon

but oddly as you change the custom weapon's shotgun model to a custom one (tried spas12 aswell) the refire rate of the weapon is like 5 seconds . . and in that time you can't reload or do anything with it, just stands there so i figured it has something to do with animations ? any ideas guys ?

When you use create server thing but playing alone...
It's like for my shotgun skin for the spas-12,that take more time to relad,but on other servers,its faster

ah, i get it, i wonder how's it working from the code point of view . . that with other net players it works and alone it dosent, on listen server with my brother acts the same.

thx for the reply

BTW is there an option to modify custom weapons's damage ?

thx for the respons

Ok got it, well all the tutorials and wiki's point on how to do it on through adding it to individual maps while i want it in in a form that i could just put it in "custom weapons" folder under the name "custom_ammo_ak47" for example, just to change the dmg, and then use "give custom_ammo_ak47" to have it in my inventory.

i guess it's not done exactly this way but you catch my drift.

thx again

---------------- UPDATE -----------------------

Solved it by changing primary ammo to "m3" now it work's

Still if anyone could have an idea about the first question i posted in this thread i'll be very happy ^^ maybe if someone could change his shotgun to the model i linked and repot the resultes i would be really gratefull

---------------- UPDATE -----------------------

Ok so i read about the mapadd stuff but i didn't want to get to decompiling maps and so on so i changed the "d2_prison_04-modify.txt" to try and add the custom ammo

Code: Select all

d2_prison_04

}

CustomAmmo
{
	"m3"
	{
		"dmgtype"		"1"
		"tracer"		"4"
		"plrdmg"		"999"	//Changed the ammo to 999 ! should kill everyone with 1 shot		"npcdmg"		"10"	//Damage done by NPCs using this ammo.

		"grains"		"200"	// 1 grain = 64.79891 milligrams
		"ftpersec"		"1225"
	}
}
}

so i tried it out and since i shot the soldiers they didn't die in 1 shot so i guess it didnt work . . did i do anything wrong ?

here's the weapon code if it's needed.
