Adding new smoke colors

[nullsystems 0]

Hi all,

Ive been attempting to add a new smoke color to a mod im working on..

It just isnt working.

What I've done here is take the SmokeShellRed in the configs, bunched it up and created my own, simply by changing "red" to "cs" for reference.

Yet, this only creates the magazine in my players gear, without being able to select it or use it.

Any help would be great. Thank you !

Please ... so many bad practice and faults in that config.

You need to learn a2 config definition:

(didnt fix your problem AND unfortunately multiple magazine array definitions overwrite each other)
