text file not operating

[warlordjaffa]

The text file "weapons" in the main soldat folder doesn't change the gun properties in game. Its rather annoying as ive made a whole set of maps and goesteks/graphics but none of the weapons suit the style of gameplay im looking for. The weird thing is it has worked only a few days ago.
Any help will be greatly apprecieted.

You need to add Recoil=0 to each weapon, otherwise they will not load.

[warlordjaffa]

Hmmmm "Recoil=0" is there for each one

Date Posted: May 19, 2007, 05:58:53 pmI found that the realistic mode weapons file is working. I hope this can help?

Paste the contents of the file here (code tags preferred), just to check if there's an error in it somewhere.

Sorry im a code noob, dont know what tags are.
hers the content.
// :: Weapon mod : default settings by Michal Marcinkowski, Beta testing team and the community

// Some settings for non-standard weapons won't work for example: reload time on stat. gun or grenade for obvious reasons
// Please do not consider weapon mod bugs as normal bugs, they are not priority. This is just the first version of the weapons mods.
// This is more for tweaking than changing the whole game.

// Soldat uses ticks for measuring time, 60 ticks = 1 second
// ex. 90 ticks = 1.5 second, 10 ticks = 0.16666667 second
// FireInterval, ReloadTime, Bink and StartUpTime is measured in ticks

//Damage=190
// The values is not relevant, experiment to see how it works (use poor mr. dummy bot for example).

//FireInterval=30
 - rate of fire, the smaller the faster the weapon is

//Ammo=4
 - full clip

//ReloadTime=75
 - time of reload in ticks

//Speed=33
 - initial speed of bullet, speed affects damage

//BulletStyle=1
 1  - plain bullet
 2 - frag grenade
 3 - shotgun pellets
 4 - m79 grenade
 5 - flame
 6 - punch
 7 - arrow
 8 - flame arrow
 11 - knife/chainsaw
 12 - LAW missile
 13 - knife
 14 - M2 bullet

//StartUpTime=0
 - like the Minigun start time, may not work for all weapons

//Bink=0
 - if the player is hit by a bullet his aim is not accurate for this amount of time, the mouse cursor in-game shows how this works
  - negative values mean self-bink, the lower the number the more inaccurate the weapon will get after auto-firing

//MovementAcc=1
 - how much the aim is affected by player movement, the higher the value the more you have to be still to aim properly


// Changes from 1.0 -> 1.1
// HK-Mp5 : dmg -4 , speed -1
// AK : dmg -2
// Styer : bink +2
// Spas : dmg +1, speed -3
// Ruger : dmg +7, fireinterval +8, Reloadtime -15, bink -8
// M79 : 30% more self damage, bink +20
// Barret : delay added --> startuptime +25, bink +10
// Minimi : dmg -3
// Chainsaw : ammo +10, reloadtime -5
// Law : startuptime -2
// Knife : dmg +1000, to compensate the slower throw

Sorry im a code noob, dont know what tags are.

You just enclose your paste with [code!] and [code/!] (remove the exclamation mark; it's just there to prevent the code tag from actually being used in this example).

Hmmmm "Recoil=0" is there for each one

Well; there's not a single "Recoil=0" line in your paste.
Just do what EnEsCe said and add that very line to every weapon.

[warlordjaffa]

Whoops, i could have sworn i did.
I must have forgotten to save.

[Toumaz]

... wonder how you managed to bork your Soldat.ini file. Unless you can grab ahold of a proper Soldat.ini file you might as well have to re-install Soldat.

[warlordjaffa]

Great, i tried to uninstall and this happens:

"Internal error: cannot find utcompiledCode record for this version of the uninstaller."

*Cries in corner*

[chrisgbk]

Just find the Soldat folder and completely remove it, then reinstall.
