Weapon Modification

[Barda4]

I was wondering if it is possible to make the Spaz-12 a automatic instead of a single shot type?

Unfortunately, it isn't possible to change whether a weapon is semi or auto, least of all Spas. You can't even change the bullets it uses.

that sucks! that would be insane if it was automatic spread grenade thing (the one when you throw it it shoots into like 5 other grenandes)

change the bullets to fragmentation

The shotgun is picky on what it can be modded to fire. I know it can fire arrows, and explosive arrows. I know it can't fire bullets, and I'm not sure about grenades or clusters.

If you want a 5 shot auto grenade thrower, just modify an automatic weapon. Take your pick from the Mp5, AK, Steyr, Minimi and the Minigun. Set its ammo to 5, and bullet style to either 2 or 4.

He wanted an auto shotgun, which could be done the same way. In fact, Taehl is considering an auto-sawed-off shotgun to replace the chainsaw.

[mxyzptlk]

He already has an auto shotgun, as well. Look at the USAS.

To get an automatic shotgun you need to replace one of the following:
MP5
AK74
Steyr Aug
Minimi

Set the bulletstyle to 3 (in the weapons.cfg) and it will fire shotgun shells instead.

Of course you will want to increase the firing interval a little so it doesn't fire too fast, and reduce the bullet speed so it doesn't shoot too far. And reduce the ammunition to an appropriate value.

M79 and Minigun can also fire shotgun pellets. So can the chainsaw, but the sounds won't work as expected if you try to make it a shotgun.

A Minigun modded into a shotgun will have an underslung look. M79 is a good candidate for a old-fashioned double-barrel shotgun. ^^
