Howto add custom weapons/modify a weapon

(Garnaal) #1

Hello,

I’m kinda new here, so i’ll get straight to the point!
I want to know how to modify a existing weapon or how to add a new weapon.
I’m kinda creating a mod with a friend, and we also have someone who creates weapons for us.
so now i want to add the weapons to the game =D.

I’ve tried changing the .weap file, but no succes.
I’ve also tried changing the destination of a weapon in the bg_misc.c
but none of it worked, and I’m kinda desperate now… =D.

I’ve looked up some tutorials on this forum, but all of them aren’t working anymore.

So if anyone knows how to, and want to let me know, you’ll be my hero =D

… its really much work to add a new weapon
… ive already added 3 new guns to my “halted” project
… so i know how much work it is
… its not just adding one, two or three entries into existing tables
… i needed nearly three months to get my first weapon in

… so the best way to do it is to “copy/rewrite” and existing weapon
… good luck to you and your mates for ya project :slight_smile:
… may ill be bored between christmas and new year so i can write a tut xD

I am for time beeing very buzy with our ModernETfront mod, and that old tutorial of mine is gone… I went away when my site got hacked.
Is this your own weapons or is it a mod pack?

For adding a new weapon, you need to touch these files:

[ul]
[li]bg_public.h
[/li][li]bg_misc.c
[/li][li]bg_pmove.c
[/li][li]bg_stats.c
[/li][li]g_client.c
[/li][li]g_items.c
[/li][li]g_weapon.c
[/li][li]cg_event.c
[/li][li]cg_players.c
[/li][li]cg_weapons.c
[/li][/ul]

Adding a weapon is very messy in Wolf:ET code, it’s caused by different coders coding style and code placing.

Well the whole Wolf:ET code is a mess :smiley:
