Weapon Config problem.

[33BO11OF00 10]

I'm making new version of MM-1 grenade launcher by BIS. I added some more ammo in clip. I can't get this config working right. What is problem here?

Here is that config:

// - config.cpp----------------------------------------------

//

// This file was created using Binview version 1.0

// -----------------------------------------------------------

class CfgPatches

{

class MM6

{

units[]={"HeavyGW"};

weapons[]={"Mm6"};

requiredVersion=1.22;

};

};

class CfgWeapons

{

class Default

{

};

class GrenadeLauncher:Default

{

};

class Mm6Base:GrenadeLauncher

{

scopeWeapon=1;

scopeMagazine=1;

weaponType="1 + 16";

magazineType="8 * 256";

displayName="$STR_DN_MM6";

displayNameMagazine="$STR_DN_MM6";

shortNameMagazine="$STR_DN_MM6";

revolvingAxis="osa_buben";

};

class MM1Magazine:Mm1Base

{

scopeMagazine=2;

picture="\MM-6\m_mm1.paa";

};

class MM1:Mm1Base

{

scopeWeapon=2;

magazines[]={"MM1Magazine"};

};

};

class CfgVehicles

{

class All

class AllVehicles:All

class Land:AllVehicles

};

class HeavyGW:SoldierWB

{

displayName="$STR_DN_HEAVYGRENW";

weapons[]={"Mm6","Binocular","Throw","Put"};

magazines[]={"MM1Magazine","SmokeShell","SmokeShell"};

};

};

I always get some errors here. Like class Mm1Base doesn't exit or something like that. How do I change this to make it work?

[rellikki 7]

Well, config definition Mm1Base does indeed not exist. It's nowhere in the config you pasted. Perhaps your Mm6Base was supposed to be Mm1Base?

[33BO11OF00 10]

I have pack up addon file and see what error i get.

Another Error:

In map editor I get only one Heavy Grenadier Soldier. How do i change that so I get new name in unit list?

You're trying to overwrite the vanilla classnames. I would strongly suggest you to add your OFPEC tag in front of the new classnames. That way the new units would show up in editor too. Add your tag in front of the HeavyGW class and preferably onto the new weapon classes too. You can give it a new editor name with the the displayName="x" line.

[33BO11OF00 10]

Thanks. I will try that later. School is open. Got to study. Huge exams/writings coming in next month. Sheesh.

[33BO11OF00 10]

Another problem appeared. I fixed the configuration but now it also overwrites original weapon and soldier. What's going on here?

This bit isn't needed in the config:

class MM1Magazine:Mm6Base
{
scopeMagazine=2;
picture="\MM-6\m_mm1.paa";
};

It only overwrites the vanilla MM1 magazine which may cause problems. Just remove that part and I think it should work fine then.

You should also add the OFPEC tags onto your MM6 weapon and magazine classes.

[33BO11OF00 10]

Can I leave texture names same? Is that OK?

Your advice did a conflict. I removed those lines but now I get a weapon Mm-1 instead of Mm-6 for that soldier. What now?

[sanctuary 19]

Instead of

class MM1Magazine:Mm6Base
{
scopeMagazine=2;
picture="\MM-6\m_mm1.paa";
};

class MM6:Mm6Base
{
scopeWeapon=2;
magazines[]={"MM1Magazine"};
};

try

class MM6Magazine:Mm6Base
{
scopeMagazine=2;
picture="\MM-6\m_mm1.paa";
};

class MM6:Mm6Base
{
scopeWeapon=2;
magazines[]={"MM6Magazine"};
};

and then instead of

class LMPHeavyGW:SoldierWB
{
displayName="$STR_DN_LMPHEAVYGRENW";
weapons[]={"MM6","Binocular","Throw","Put"};
magazines[]={"MM1Magazine","SmokeShell","SmokeShell"};
};

try

class LMPHeavyGW:SoldierWB
{
displayName="$STR_DN_LMPHEAVYGRENW";
weapons[]={"MM6","Binocular","Throw","Put"};
magazines[]={"MM6Magazine","SmokeShell","SmokeShell"};
};

[33BO11OF00 10]

Sanctuary:

You again. you rule.

Other problem: Now the names are correct but now my grenadier has zero ammo. What's problem here?

Look at red number. It should be 50 not zero.

Probably because you gave the soldier wrong ammo.

magazines[]={"MM1Magazine","SmokeShell","SmokeShell"};

Change it to yours.

[33BO11OF00 10]

Thanks. I will try this advice. There was other reason for this thread: This is good tutorial for weapon configs.

Other question:

HOW to add pistol for this soldier(Like Glock).

---------- Post added at 05:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:29 PM ----------

Weapon problems solved. Thanks Rellikki. Now BIG question: How to release this addon?
