MrSanchez 243 Posted October 12, 2015 Hi. I'm a practical gamer and I like practical features. I was playing a SWAT TvT and ordered a crook to drop his weapons.So you're standing there while the guy looks down at the ground (inventory) until his weapons finally drop. *Sigh* I realized; there's no button in ArmA to drop your weapons. RIDICULOUS, right!? This mod changes that. Features: Allows you to drop your current selected weapon by a single button Allows you to re-bind that button if CBA is running (the default button is T). If you have multiple guns, after dropping one you don't automatically pull out the other one (to prevent the 'HES GOT A GUN!' mistakes) Multiplayer Compatible ;) Client sided Known issues: Due to an ArmA 3 engine issue (http://feedback.arma3.com/view.php?id=21469), weapons with a second muzzle (e.g. grenade launcher) will have no ammo in the second muzzle after dropping (e.g. you lose the grenade) I've been modding for three years but never released anything. This is my first time. There could be some screw ups, forgive me ^^.Feel free to suggest anything.( Play withSix, ArmAholic mirrors are appreciated ;) ) Download: Dropbox (v1.1): https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/23922015/%40sanchez_ds_v1.1.zipArmA3.de (v1.1): http://arma3.de/include.php?path=download&contentid=3897 Changelog: v1.0 - Initial release v1.1 - Signed pbo & provided serverkey Credits: Speirs - for testingRyan_Dombrowsky - for being an inspiring bogan, jk This mod is licensed under APL-SA (Share Alike), read the included readme.txt file for more information.

ruPal 143 Posted October 13, 2015 Is it possible to add animation for that? Standard open inventory animation will be ok. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

luckylegs 19 Posted October 13, 2015 Wow, I'm surprised that I've never thought about this, let alone read or seen any discussion about it in regards to Arma before. Awesome idea Sanchez :) Brilliantly simple. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrSanchez 243 Posted October 13, 2015 Cheers guys. Well luckylegs, a simple idea but a pain in the ass to make due to some lacks in the engine :P Is it possible to add animation for that? Standard open inventory animation will be ok. I'm not sure what you mean and how that will look. The standard open inventory animation is just the guy looking down at his feet as if there's a spider on his boot or sumn. Also, most animations will probably (but not necessary) slow you down and that kind of defeats the purpose of this mod. (it's not the slow weapon drop mod, haha :P) Anyway thanks for the feedback. Kind regards, Sanchez Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wraithlike Owl 0 Posted October 14, 2015 This mod looks great, is there a way to speed up/remove the animation after he drops the launcher? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrSanchez 243 Posted October 14, 2015 This mod looks great, is there a way to speed up/remove the animation after he drops the launcher? The animation that plays is the vanilla arma3 one that is automatically played if someone's weapons are removed, the launcher one in particular is cringeworthy. I can try and cancel it out to see how that looks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrSanchez 243 Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) I'll be updating this mod with the Nexus update of ArmA 3 (1.54?) - Bohemia has implemented a fix for the muzzle issue. edit: 3 years later - I've decided not to do this, since other projects popped up with higher priority. Edited June 25, 2018 by MrSanchez broken promises lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
