Does anyone know what's causing it? How to resolve etc?

If I recall right, this "missing from VA" is due to a weapon config enheriting attributes (no longer used by BIS) from vanilla weapons... and maybe the scope variable... does it rings any bells? 

 

Good luck, Zee

da12thMonkey had posted about it in the RHS thread, IIRC, and had a handle on it. It was above my paygrade, so I can't specifically propose a fix :-/

Is it not to do with the changes a while back to scopeArsenal?

[drebin052 323]

Wasn't it because BI recently made it so that actual weapons require the baseWeapon parameter? If so, it's relatively easy to fix. Just add baseWeapon = "zee_mp7_blk" at the top of each weapon class in the config and it should be visible in the Arsenal again like so (replace zee_mp7_blk with the name of the weapon class for every single unique camo variant as well):

class zee_mp7_blk: zee_weap_mp7_Base_F
{
...
	baseWeapon = "zee_mp7_blk";
...
};

class zee_mp7_AOR: zee_weap_mp7_Base_F
{
...
	baseWeapon = "zee_mp7_AOR";
...
};

etc...

 

I believe this was to do with making sure that weapons with predetermined attachments (like arifle_MX_Hamr_pointer_F as an example) don't show up in the Arsenal. scope shouldn't be the cause of it unless you set them private (1) for whatever reason.

 

EDIT: And just a small nitpick zee. You could really simplify your config by having all the subsequent camo variants inherit from the black MP7 instead of the base class and having redefine your scope and WeaponSlotsInfo every time:

class zee_mp7_blk: zee_weap_mp7_Base_F
{
...
(has all the scope attributes)
...
	baseWeapon = "zee_mp7_blk";
	author = "zeealex";
	_generalMacro = "zee_mp7_blk";
	// Make sure WeaponSlotsInfo inherits from the base class' WeaponSlotsInfo. No need to redefine it twice.
	class WeaponSlotsInfo: WeaponSlotsInfo
	{
		mass = 108;
	};
...
(has all the extra parameters like displayname, iteminfo, etc.)
...
};

class zee_mp7_AOR: zee_mp7_blk
{
(now inherits scopeArsenal, scope, hiddenSelections[], weaponInfoType, initSpeed, inertia, WeaponSlotsInfo, and itemInfo from zee_mp7_blk)
	// baseWeapon and _generalMacro changed to new class name
	baseWeapon = "zee_mp7_AOR";
	author = "zeealex";
	_generalMacro = "zee_mp7_AOR";
	displayName = "MP7A1 (AOR2)";
	hiddenSelectionsTextures[] = {"\zee_mp7\addons\zee_MP7\Data\mp7_aor2_co.paa"};
};

 

This way you only have to leave important stuff like the displayName, baseWeapon and hiddenSelectionsTextures[] parameters for each camo variant. Makes for a less cluttered config and is easier to update over subsequent updates since you will only have to change the parameters in the base class (zee_weap_mp7_Base_F) and the black MP7 (zee_mp7_blk).
