Can you make new melee weapons?

[Sir Purri]

I would like to have more weapons like chainsaw in the game so could i make one by myself?

Is it possible and if it is, do I need some kind of program or can I just make it by editing the weapons.ini file?

You can only have 4 secondary weapons. By editing weapons.ini you can change weapons specifics (like speed,ammo).
If you want to change weapons appearance you can edit it's outfit simply by changing file picturing it.
Best way to change look of soldat is to download and install some modification.

[Sir Purri]

I mean that I want a weapon that kills from close distances like chainsaw. Is it possible to make that kind of weapon from existing weapons like US socom or Ak74?
I have no problems with changing the weapons appearances.

Sir you haven't undestood anything about what Wookash said.
go to soldat folder and find weapons.ini if you modify the stats for example putting slow speed, that will mean less range do it that way. I also suggest to modify the bullets and make them invisible so you can make a sword perfectly without making it shoting bullets, the problem comes when you are on the air, the 'bullets' will fall and hit the people down you.

Play with that and post if you have any problems

hey...MM should bind melee function - just think, when you are close with enemy, you can push him away with LMB (this is fire button) ...

Can MM improve this in Soldat 1.5.1?

You can make the weapon shoot a FIST, as in, make it so another weapon uses the fist or knife deal.

Fist won´t work as he wants the melee weapon to be. I would rather suggest to use the stat gun bullets and mod the sparks-gfx so no smoke will occur and to adjust the range play with the speed of the specified gun. You can´t use these guns for melee weapons: desert eagles, spas 12, barret m82 (would be fun, though, to be able to scope with a melee wep), ussocom, m72 law.
