One weapon, multiple Ammo.

[cataphrat1]

I prefer to use FO3Edit, so any advice on that would be appreciated.

 

Basically, I want to be able to fire different ammunition from one gun.

 

Thanks in advance!

You'll need to do some scriping to get that working. Try This to get you started.

Jeebus, i thought it is just a little Comma betweeen the code...

I don't think I am nearly experienced enough to fiddle around with scripts.

I am an uber noob modder.

 

Thanks again Radiosity, you've been real helpful. :thanks:

It's actually pretty easy :) Basically you have two scripts, one changes to 1 ammo type, the other changes to the second ammo type (what it's really doing is silently equipping you with an identical weapon that uses a different ammo type). Then you have a message which displays when you equip the weapon to ask which ammo type you want to use, if you only have one ammo type it'll automatically use that without bugging you for a choice.

I've got some free at the moment, I can probably stick a quick and easy to follow tutorial together for you tomorrow. Once you've got your scripts set up, you can duplicate them easily for other weapons, the rest of the process is easy as pie :)

I have my eye on this thread. some of my bf2142 weapons will require 2 different (and in a few cases, 3 different) ammo types for the Alternate-fire functions. (ie the Boforz that fires assault rifle, shotgun and rockets lol :))

 

I downloaded the alternate fire mod that I saw someone link last week, but actually getting it to consume different ammo types, this is the key.

Yes

Alt fires is somewhat different, i'd attempt to use fose setweapon<sumthing> for that, as you want to do it on real time.

The other method involves changing the weapon itself, thus, you get weaponchange animation.
