Max_Caine Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 There are a bunch of soviet GUI weapon images in /assets/weapons/ballistic/soviet/. If you want to "unlock" them, you have to replace the current GUI images with those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a333 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I've also seen entries for Ak47 and other soviet arms in the weapons config xml, and even battlescape sprites, so there must be another way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vaultdweller Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I believe those are used by local forces on some maps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max_Caine Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Erm, where are these other soviet specific weapon definitions then? I've just looked through weapons_gc, and other than "generic weapon X" I can't find any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a333 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 My bad. Yes, you are right, there's only AK47. No other soviet weapons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 There aren't specific soviet weapons (AK47 aside, which is used by ground forces), because there also aren't specific NATO weapons - there's just alternate Soviet art for the general weapon classes. The Soviet Weapon mod is just going to be an image swap for the existing starting weapons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buzzles Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 As an FYI, it's *really* easy to make the AK47 appear as another assault rifle in your armoury considering pretty much all the xml files are there thanks to being able to pick it up during a ground battle and use it with your troops anyway. Been a while, but it was a couple of tiny tweaks to the items.xml and I think possibly having to add one xml entry to the xml file that controls the armoury (weapons.xml). Of course, adding new magazines for it is a bit more involved, but no more than about 10 mins work in all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max_Caine Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Yes, there are several gun porn mods that benefit from how easy it is to add stuff like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
