Ammobox config

[Rhamka 10]

There is so much time I did an ammobox addon that worked fine, but I can't remember how to do it again. I've searched a lot and I can't find a code working for me. My first questions is if the config of an ammobox works the same in arma1 (as I still play it) as for arma2 (neither of those I can make the ammobox work)?

The problem is that I did some weapons, so I can call the default weapons and it works, but I can't call my own weapons to be in the ammobox. I know I can use the my stuff because I can call them in the init of the player. Pls do not tell me to use an script, I want to have the addon in the editor not to add the SQF to each mission, sometimes I only enter the editor not to make missions but to random gameplay.

The only config I've found is from arma1 in here:

http://forum.armedassault.info/index.php?showtopic=4619

but I does not solve my problem, the one im using is the following config:

class CfgPatches {

class My_AmmoBox {

units[] = {};

weapons[] = {};

requiredAddons[] = {"MyWeapons"};

};

};

class CfgVehicles

{

class All;

class AllVehicles;

class ThingEffect;

class Land;

class Man;

class CAManBase;

class AmmoBoxWest;

class SoldierWB;

class MyAmmobox: AmmoBoxWest {

model = "\ca\Weapons\hromada_beden.p3d";

displayName = "myAmmoBox";

class TransportMagazines {

class _xx_30Rnd_556x45_Stanag

{

magazine = "30Rnd_556x45_Stanag";

count = 200;

};

};

class TransportWeapons {

class _xx_myAssaultRifle

{

weapon = "Weapon name";

count = 10;

};

};

};

};

Consider that I have two PBOs, one for the weapons that is called in the required addons ("MyWeapons") and other PBO for the ammobox.

The ammobox appears on the editor with the default weaps and magazines that are written in the config, so in the same way I add my own stuff, but it's not working in Arma1 nor in arma2.

What you could do is download / unpbo any ammobox and rename every entry to make it into your new ammobox. For starters your cfgpatch is all wrong: all entries have a opening and closing bracket: cfgwhatever {};

class CfgPatches
{
   class mod_XYZ_ammobox
   {
       units[] = {"your_ammoboxstd"};
       weapons[] = {};
       requiredVersion = 1.02;
       requiredAddons[] = {};
   };
};
class CfgVehicles
{
   class ReammoBox;
   class your_ammoboxstd: ReammoBox
   {
       scope = 2;
       accuracy = 1000;
       model = "\ca\weapons\AmmoBoxes\USBasicWeapons.p3d";
       displayName = "weapons box X";
       class TransportMagazines
       {
class A2020_17Rnd_9x19_g17 {magazine = "A2020_17Rnd_9x19_g17";count = 100;};
   };
   class TransportWeapons
   {
class vil_FnMag {weapon = "vil_FnMag";count = 50;};
   };
};
};

i think your inheritance needs fixing

here's an example of one that works ok

#define _ARMA_

//Class config.bin{

class CfgPatches
{
class PD3_M107
{
 requiredVersion = 1.59;
 requiredAddons[] = {"CaWeapons","CAweapons_m107","CAweapons_E","CAweapons_E_m107"};
 weapons[] = {"m107_TWS_EP1","m107"};
 units[] = {"PD3_M107_crate"};

 author = "PD3";
 mail = "";
};
};

Thanks for reply, I'll check ur codes and post again with what worked for me.
