Basic Modding with Playable Examples

[DigitalJunkie]

If you want an insane weapon, do what Brusher said above me, and take a pistol (I prefer the USP or another accurate fast shooter) and go into the .ltx and where it says ammo name add , 12x70_buck - NOW thats Ballin!

*Try shooting an explosive barrel outside (The marine HQ by first level)

Edit: If you want something weird use the Obokan or other good machine gun

*Sniper rifles dont look as good to me as machine guns + pistols wit shotgun ammo

= Dont use spread and it sends things flying =

For instance: if you change your "box_size" to 60 and use "= 10, 3" in the trader line, that will give you 600 rounds.

Don't know why I didn't think of it before.

Funny you should metion that i've changed the box sizes so i can buy 2000 rounds for around 40RU LOL!!

Also could you edit the slug or dart rounds to fire more then one slug at a time?? imagine THAT!! 100 slugs going everywhere F$%KING LAWL!!

@ midnight in the unique_items file add the line "buck_shot = 60" without quote mark to any shotgun and man the effects are awesome. Have went as high as 80 on that but no farther, maybe can have more. Also add this there too "explosive = on" this gives the ammo some nasty explosive effects. see in pic I added shot gun ammo to the desert eagle and boom.

Awesome giv_em_hell, I've noticed that some ammo such as the SVD has the explosive effect turned on as well. How did you do that thumbnail ? i'll post some pics of my modded weapons

[giv_em_hell]

when you post go down to the additional option section and click manage attachments, browse, add a pic and BAMM .... lol ..... there it is. Like here is my Groza with shotgun ammo and the explosive effects with the buck_shot set to 80, even though it shows it with other ammo.

Yes you can as I see you've already found that out.

Just for fun, try this out. Set your "k_dist" and "k_disp", and "buck_shot" like this:

k_dist = 200
k_disp = 20000
buck_shot = 300

Yes you can do it, and yes it's ubsurd. lol You could wipe out an entire army from half a mile away with those settings. lol

I wouldnt' want to leave it that way but it's worth a look see for fun.
It is taxing on the system though. I have a Intel Core Duo 6600, 2 gigs ram, and a Gforce 8800 with 768 mem. and it struggled a bit with those settings.

Oh just one little warning if your going to be using my modded file, DONT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES FIRE THE WEAPON WITH ARMOR PIERCING ROUNDS NEAR PEOPLE YOU DONT WANT TO SHREAD INTO A MILLION GIBS! These round will pierce alot of things and then mangle the person behind them ! I let off a few rounds at the novice base and BAM i've got 4 dead stalkers on the ground having a slumber party...oh wait their not sleeping...oh dear...

Anyway heres some picks of my hardcore USP

[giv_em_hell]

whoo whooo look out 300 buck... lol ...damn thats awesome didnt think of going that high. Check out my super groza download it is nasty like that not that kick ass but close. And has like 500 round clips of shotty ammo, sniper ammo, and assualt ammo. This is the best over all with attachables like scope, silencers, and grenade lauchers. This thing will even shoot through walls and metal like its nothing.

[Midnight_light]

OMFG i just found a cool side effect, i can bash doors open with my pistol. Check the pics, from the duty base where you talk to the stalker about fighting in the arena!

Also i found a great way to keep yourself entertained and warm at the same time! Dance in the fire place!
