Changing ammo type for weapon mods? Help!

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I've never used this forum before, so I hope I'm doing everything right.

 

Basically, I'm trying to change the ammo type for a custom weapon mod, the AK74M (https://www.nexusmod...t4/mods/21466/?) to fit the 7.62mm rounds that came with the Nukaworld dlc.

I tried it in creation kit and Fo4edit, but I must be doing something wrong cause nothing is working.

 

If anyone has any information or maybe a quick tutorial on how I can change the ammo type for a custom weapon mod in fallout 4, I would greatly appreciate it!

 

BTW- I've already gone in creation kit and changed the ammo type, capacity, etc. but nothing is working... Am I making a mistake somewhere? Do I need to save it separately?

I'm lost!!! :sad:

I wish I could help but I am in the same territory that you are. I do have a mod that allow me to have any weapon any ammo or something like that but I am unable to create whatever ammo I want. I have been unable to figure it out.

I just don't understand it :/

I mean I've followed the tutorials online and done everything through creation kit, but its like it doesn't save the changes...

open the weapon in fo4edit scroll to the bottom and there you see the ammo type, (if it's a vanilla weapon copy the weapon record as override or new record and make esp) then change the ammo type to the one you want to use

I did this, though. I tried changing it to the ammo I wanted to use (7.62 from the dlc), and it didn't work. I also tried a vanilla ammo just for good measure, and nothing.

And before anyone asks, I used the correct version of it, not the "COM", unusable one.

This is what I'm looking at here:


I set the file to have the Nukaworld dlc as a masters, then went into the weapon file and changed the ammo to DLC04_Ammo_HandmadeRound "7.62 Round" [AMMO:01037897]


I did this by selecting the down arrow to the side, and clicking on the ammo. I didn't click on DLC04_COM_Ammo_HandmadeRound "7.62 Round" [AMMO:01037897] because I was told not to.


What am I doing wrong??

Follow up:

ironically, I saved the fo4edit script I used as an example in the screenshot, and it worked...

I reinstalled the ak mod since, so maybe that had something to do with it, but it's working now!

I might contact the mod author and offer the patch, or just upload the patch myself to pay it forward.

Thanks for the help, everyone!
