Bas ranger addon question

[Karlos 0]

hi all,

I'm trying to equip a BAS Ranger with the BAS_Soflam. I enter

addweapon"BAS_Soflam"; addmagazine"BAS_Soflam"

in the unit details and preview. I have the LAM, however when I try and use it it says no ammo is loaded and I don't get a red dot or reticule.... what am I doing wrong..

PS - Second question is, is there any point trying to use this thing as I can't seem to be able to get the BI Laser Designator to work let alone the BAS one!

Before you add that, you have to remove some weapons.  If the ammo for the LTD is the same as normal in OFP, you will need the entire second row of ammo for it.

So remove all non-nessecary secondary ammo.  (IE hand greandes).  Then insert:

addweapon"BAS_Soflam"; addmagazine"BAS_Soflam"

But you have to be sure to remove weapons before that line.

Suggested would be the standard Rifle with 4 mags, then the LTD and it's "Ammo".

For using the regular OFP LTD, do this if you are equipping to a normal soldier.

this removeweapon "handgrenade"; this removeweapon "handgrenade"; this removeweapon "handgrenade"; this removeweapon "handgrenade"; this removeweapon "handgrenade"; this removeweapon "handgrenade"; this addmagazine "laserdesignator"; this addweapon "laserdesignator"

That would do it for a normal soldier.

Also, ALWAYS add the ammo BEFORE the weapon.

i.e. "this addmagazine laserdesignator"; this addweapon laserdesignator"

Otherwise you'll have to manually reload whenever you start the mission.

Edit: Just noticed Harnu mentioned that at the end of his post, but it doesn't hurt to emphasise the point.
