Copying Weapons

[Sars99]

Right i know i've been asking alot of questions, but as usual my searching hasn't gotten me anywhere

so here goes

After looking at the PR files for the different L85 rifles i had a go myself at 'copying' weapon folders to change them slightly

for starters i got the rurif_ak47 files and modified them to match the changes that was done by the PR team to make a seperate rifle that worked the same but with some different stats

i made the file chrif_type56 and ingame it worked, the link to my localization files had work and i didn't CTD

however there was no noises for the gun at all:

not while firing (except for empty cases and bullet impact)
or reloading

heres what my chrif_type56.con looks like

GeometryTemplate.create BundledMesh chrif_type56
CollisionManager.createTemplate chrif_type56

ObjectTemplate.create GenericFireArm chrif_type56
ObjectTemplate.saveInSeparateFile 1
ObjectTemplate.creator MBA-1:mba
ObjectTemplate.collisionMesh chrif_type56
ObjectTemplate.mapMaterial 0 Collision_Material 0
ObjectTemplate.hasCollisionPhysics 1
ObjectTemplate.physicsType 3
ObjectTemplate.geometry rurif_ak47

include chrif_type56.tweak

and the top bit of my chrif_type56.tweak that i changed

any help muchly appreciated

Re: Copying Weapons

You need to rename the sound effects in the .tweak; look for S_rurif_ak47 and change them all to S_chrif_type56.
