how to edit backpack cargo slots?

[admiral526 1]

Hi people! :D

I need some help. I was wondering how to edit backpack cargo slots. For example I want the tripod bag to have 5 slots to add magazines and items.

Does anyone know how to do that?

Btw, how can I rename an object (for example 'tripod bag' to 'rolled cloth')?

Thanks.

Config changes, which would require you to have an addOn.

^^ that. :) You'd have to make an addOn with a backpack like you wanted. Then you'd have to have everyone playing the mission running the addOn, probably the server too?

Hi Admiral,

those lines may help with your config:

class cfgVehicles {

class ReammoBox; // External class reference

class ReammoBox_EP1; // External class reference

class Bag_Base_EP1; // External class reference

class your_backpack : Bag_Base_EP1 {

scope = public;

displayName = "your_Addon_name";

picture = "\ca\weapons_e\data\icons\backpack_US_ASSAULT_CA.paa";

icon = "\ca\weapons_e\data\icons\mapIcon_backpack_CA.paa";

mapsize = 2;

model = "\ca\weapons_e\AmmoBoxes\backpack_us_AUV";

transportMaxWeapons = 3;

transportMaxMagazines = 20;

This one use a default backpack (Bag_Base_EP1), but ingame you have your own classname (your_backpack) with your own slotts.

The class names can be found easily.

You have to write a config with something like the above within. Then make a .pbo with the BI-tools.

Thanks a lot Baraka! Wasn't sure where to start with that.
