Post Weapons wont categorize
Well you see, Vex finished the coding for the gun and then we worked our way through some errors, but in the end both of us couldn't find the gun in the guns section. I made sure that it had the AddToGroup = Private and it still didn't work :oops: . Any suggestions?

Post Re: Weapons wont categorize
it should be
AddDevice = HDFirearm
PresetName = name
Description = blahblah
AddToGroup = your group

AND
Buyable = 1
for Buyable = 0 the weapon will obiously not show up in the list and for 1 it will show up

Heres the code for the gun. *Note that there is stuff above it like magazines and such.
Code:

   PresetName = PTRS
   Description = A high caliber Russian sniper rifle, was originally manufactured in 1941 for use against Nazi Germany. Although likely to jam and all around obsolete, it still packs one hell of a punch.

I thought that too, unfortunately it loads too fast so I can't catch it in time. Here's my .ini file, I don't see anything wrong with it... do you?
Code:
DataModule
   Author = Vexont and Zephyr
   ModuleName = V2-Arms-Inc
   IconFile = ContentFile
      Path = V2 Arms Inc.rte/ModuleIcon.bmp
IncludeFile = V2 Arms Inc.rte/Devices/Weapons/Index.ini


I have also tried the module name with:
V2 Arms Inc.
and V2 Arms Inc

EDIT:
I got it to work, but the sprite is messed up. I know why, but I forget how to get the palette... something to do with opening up another sprite with Paint...?

Because I'm somewhat of a nerd, I just thought I'd tell you that the PTRS is NOT a Sniper Rifle, and using it in such a way (as in CoD:WaW, which probably gave you the idea of making it), is not possible for a normal human, mainly because it's barrel weighs too much, thus making the gun imbalanced. The PTRS is in fact an Anti-Tank Rifle designed to be used with a bipod whilst lying down.
Fun fact: While a Barret M107 fires 12.7 bullets (50 caliber), the PTRS fires 14.5 bullets

Sorry for not contributing to the thread in a way you want, but I thought I'd give you some feedback on the gun anyways
