Help with custom weapons

[ShadowX99]

Im having a problem with my custom weapons, when ever i try to select them they dont allow me to, I think it has to do with "missing { in file scripts (*autoAim*)

Anyone know how to fix this?

wrong forum, moved...

also: without a little insight of how your script looks like is it quite hard to see where the problem is

Here is what my script looks like

I used the aug script for an example because i couldnt find a tutorial on making a weapon

[fug4life]

When you say 'select' them you mean you can't 'spawn' them (give custom_weapon)?

Or you can spawn them but cannot select the weapon from the weapon hud menu?

Also if you think a } is missing or something, then re copy the script and update it again to use your weapon settings. Thats if you want to be sure.

[ShadowX99]

I copyed the aug script and placed it in my custom weapon script but it only solved my hud icon problem, and i ment to say is that i can spawn the weapon but i cant select it from my weapon hud menu

[fug4life]

So to clarify, you can spawn the weapon. You can see the weapon hud icon?
Does the text (F2000) show red on the icon?

[ShadowX99]

Yes it does say F2000 on the red icon

[fug4life]

The only things I can suggest are change bucket&slot positions incase you're conflictin with somethin else.

Also you've given scoped settings but havent specified here:

// **Secondary Attack**

// 0 = none, 1 = Basic Bullet, 2 = Burst, 3 = shotgun, 4 = autoshotgun, 5 = laser, 6 = warp, 8 = scope
"FireType2" "0"

Either specify scope settings above and scope actually = 7 not 8

Or delete:

"UseScopedFireCone" "1"
"ScopedFireCone" "1"
"ScopedColorR" "0"
"ScopedColorG" "0"
"ScopedColorB" "0"

Thats all I can suggest to you Also make sure you're restarting the mod or renaming the script files when saving changes for the changes to take affect.

[ShadowX99]

I tried your suggestions but they didnt work , but for some reason when i drop all my weapons it shows up but when i pick them back up i cant use it?

[fug4life]

Try changing the name of the custom weapon script.

custom_f2000_new

or something.

[ShadowX99]

That custom_f2000_new worked Now i can select from my weapons hud, now my only problems are the sound and the fact that the weapons is sticking out of my characters crotch

[fug4life]

The crotch issue, will need fixing in a modeling program.

Is the model just a css re-skin? or completely new model?

If it was a reskin I thought you may be able to use the skin and hex an exsisting converted cs weapon.

As for sound describe what you've done so far and I'll see if I can help.

[ShadowX99]

Well the weapon is a custom model, but i dont have any modeling programs
and for the sounds i used a txt i found in the folder

"weapon_F2000.Single"
{
"channel" "CHAN_WEAPON
"volume" "1.0"
"Compatibilityattenuation" "ATTN_NORM"
"Pitch" "PITCH_NORM"

"wave" "weapons\F2000\f2000-1.wav"
}

"Weapon_F2000.boltback"
{
"channel" "CHAN_ITEM"
"volume" "1.0"
"CompatibilityAttenuation" "1.0"
"pitch" "PITCH_NORM"

"wave" "weapons\F2000\f2000_boltback.wav"
}

"Weapon_F2000.magout"
{
"channel" "CHAN_ITEM"
"volume" "1.0"
"CompatibilityAttenuation" "1.0"
"pitch" "PITCH_NORM"

"wave" "weapons\F2000\f2000_magout.wav"
}

"Weapon_F2000.magin"
{
"channel" "CHAN_ITEM"
"volume" "1.0"
"CompatibilityAttenuation" "1.0"
"pitch" "PITCH_NORM"

"wave" "weapons\F2000\f2000_magin.wav"
}

"Weapon_F2000.boltforward"
{
"channel" "CHAN_ITEM"
"volume" "1.0"
"CompatibilityAttenuation" "1.0"
"pitch" "PITCH_NORM"

"wave" "weapons\F2000\f2000_boltforward.wav"
}

I placed it into game_sounds_cs_weapons

[fug4life]

as long as you placed at the bottom should be fine, I'd just check css is mounting correctly for you when you load a map or weapon.

[ShadowX99]

When i try adding the sounds to the bottom of the list and when i try to spawn it, it will disconect me and says theres a bad string or something?
