cfgAmmo patch (noob needs help)

[max1944 16]

Hello

 

I have made a damage mod that works fine for the regular/vanilla cfgAmmo but those from the marksman DLC won't work. I think the requiredAddons[] = {}; for the marksman DLC is missing, but how could I find out?

 

EDIT: SOLVED

 

regular/vanilla cfgAmmo = "A3_Weapons_F"

marksman DLC cfgAmmo = "A3_Weapons_F_Mark"

 

Example: 

class CfgPatches 
{

	class Damage_Mod
	{
		units[] = {};
		weapons[] = {};
		requiredVersion = 0.1;
		requiredAddons[] = {"A3_Weapons_F", "A3_Weapons_F_Mark};
	};
};

class CfgAmmo 
{
	class Bulletbase;
	
	class B_556x45_Ball : BulletBase
	{
		hit = 12; 
	};
	
	class B_338_Ball : BulletBase
	{
		hit = 24;
	};
};

Hi,

 

Try with : 

"A3_Weapons_F_Mark"

That should do the work  ;)

 

I used this and some others for my rename and muzzle config' files.

 

You should see to correct this :

class Damage_Mod
    {
        units[] = { };
        weapons[] = { };
        requiredVersion = 0.1;
        requiredAddons[] = {
                "A3_Weapons_F"
        };
    };

By :

class Damage_Mod
    {
        units[] = { };
        weapons[] = { };
        requiredVersion = 0.1;
        requiredAddons[] = {"A3_Weapons_F","A3_Weapons_F_Mark"};
    };

And all should be right  :)

 

You can add your nickname for the author line :

class Damage_Mod
    {
        units[] = { };
        weapons[] = { };
        requiredVersion = 0.1;
        requiredAddons[] = {"A3_Weapons_F","A3_Weapons_F_Mark"};
        author = "max1944";
    };

If I can give my opinion, you should do a file for each version.

 

First of all, to permit to those who don't own the Marksmen DLC to use the ArmA III version, and secondly, to those who just want one of the two versions to don't be obligated to use the two of them.

You just have to create a mod file and a config.cpp for each version.

 

But it's your mod, you make it like you want it of course.

 

Hope this help !  :D

I'm such a fool. I already tried "A3_Weapons_F_Mark" but I made a mistake.

 

I used "A3_Weapons_F, A3_Weapons_F_Mark" without the proper quotation marks. Now it works. Thank you very much!

 

You can add your nickname for the author line 

 

I hadn't planned to make it public, but here is the code if someone likes to see/use it. If there are further errors, please let me know.

 

Pistol damage x2

Rifle damage x1.5 (exept some of the powerful sniper rounds)

Grenades are more leathal to keep up with the bullets

Helicopters will go down with one Titan AA (like tanks do with one Titan AT)

I'm surprised you don't get RPT errors with having the {}'s open in the cfgpatches.

class CfgPatches 
{

	class Damage_Mod
	{
		units[] = { };
		weapons[] = { };
		requiredVersion = 0.1;
		requiredAddons[] = {"A3_Weapons_F", "A3_Weapons_F_Mark"};
	};
};

Maybe close them up:

class CfgPatches 
{
	class Damage_Mod
	{
		units[] = {};
		weapons[] = {};
		requiredVersion = 0.1;
		requiredAddons[] = {"A3_Weapons_F", "A3_Weapons_F_Mark"};
	};
};

Edit: In retrospect, its probably only arrays within specific classes that give errors (such as weapons/magazines etc carried by a unit) when you have a space and an otherwise empty field.

Hey,

 

 

 

I'm such a fool. I already tried "A3_Weapons_F_Mark" but I made a mistake.

 

No, it's like all things, we must try and test, and we learn from our mistakes.

I learned to do this by extracting BI *.pbo files.

 

 

 

I used "A3_Weapons_F, A3_Weapons_F_Mark" without the proper quotation marks. Now it works. Thank you very much!

 

No problem !

 

 

 

I don't plan to make it public, but here is the code if someone likes to see it.

 

It's your mod and your idea, I think you should add your nickname and keep the file content private  ;)

We never know, for my part, one of the administrator of a site don't respect my term of distribution and add one of my mod on his site by simple childishness.

 

 

 

If there are further errors, please let me know.

 

The better way to know this is to test it on the field  ;)

 

Good continuation !

It works fine. But as seen with the open {} there might be a few things.

 

Thanks to everyone

the open {} there might be a few things.

 

I sometimes have this since I started.

That never cause any issue.

 

I just correct it because I'm a perfectionnist, but without that, opened "{}" never get me any issues  ;)

 

 

 

Thanks to everyone

 

No problem, it's the purpose of a community, helping each others  :)
