ARMA 2 CO Units using backpacks problem

[leocapnaone 10]

Hi, im creating a mission o map Utes, the units of my squad are from german army. I used LEA editor to put the loadout on them, on the backpacks I puted grenades and other weapons with lots of ammo. For example, the medic have 3 mags on his gear, and more 5 on the backpack, when the game starts the medic complaim about the ammo (Medic - "Running out of ammo."). When I switch to them (they are playable units), I can use their backpacks items with no problems, but they cant on their own. I use ACE mod (with all other ACE's and CBA's). I just want to know why they cant use the itens on their backpacks. Maybe I need to use US. Army units instead of German? its a bug? I'm dumb because they cant use the backpacks on their own? please help me.

Thanks.

Afaik AI are unable to use magazines stored in backpacks, to accomplish something like this you'll either have to monitor them using a custom made script or check out the ASR AI Rearming mod, which I believe allows AI to rearm using backpacks, whether it works with the ACE ones (ACE backpacks are referred to as weapons instead of backpacks), I wouldn't know, try it out.

Kind regards,

Martin

8Rnd_B_Beneli_Pellets

        Class 8Rnd_B_Beneli_Pellets : CA_Magazine
               {
               scope=2;
               displayName="8Rnd. M1014 Pellets";
               ammo="B_12Gauge_Pellets";

               };

Also, check out the All in one Config v1.62 - ArmA2+OA+BAF+PMC+ACR, much easier to look for config entries yourself. I use notepad++ with KillzoneKid's highlighting...

There are also a couple of scripts around to pull this information yourself. How to create an AllInOne config. Unfortunately, OFPEC has been offline for some time...

You can probably find these elsewhere. I use Denisko-Redisko's version.

Thanks, but the problem is that my game is 1.62, in the 1.56 update they added 8Rnd_B_Beneli_Pellets (buckshot). For some reason none of my config.bin's on ArmA 2 Addons folder and ArmA2 2: OA, have this ammo. Buuuuut, when i launch the game and use Ace buckshot00 i fires normal, and the ammo that this mag uses, is the 12GA_B_Pellets. I've searched all the game directory, cant find, but all works fine :-/
