Multiple Weapons

[TheWeirdness666]

I am pretty new to modding AssaultCube, and I have downloaded and successfully used many weapon mods, including skins, sounds, etc. Right now, (running my own distribution of Linux) I have scripts that automate the process of changing the weapon directories (i.e. a script to remove the current "assault" directory to a different one, and another script to cop the "AK47" directory to "assault", allowing me to change from M4 to AK, and so on). I was wondering instead of having to do this, is it possible to add the weapons to the ingame change primary weapons list? Like, have a selection for the assaultM4, and the assaultAK?

Edit: I also know about editing the name of the weapon in the menu, file "config/menu_settings.cfg". But simply adding it to the menu doesn't work.

Not currently. However, the script may be helpful to other people.

[Dementium4ever]

Yes, it would be great if you could upload it :)

[TheWeirdness666]

It's just a simple script

[SELECT ALL] Code:

#! /bin/bash

rm -rf ~/.1.1.0.4/packages/models/weapons/assault
cp -r ~/.1.1.0.4/packages/models/weapons/AK47 ~/.1.1.0.4/packages/models/weapons/assault

echo "AK47 is now current Assault Rifle"

Open your default text editor (nano, vim, leafpad, gedit) and copy and paste it (replacing ".1.1.0.4" with the games directory) and then

[SELECT ALL] Code:

chmod +x filename

to make it executable, then

[SELECT ALL] Code:

sudo mv filename /bin/

Now whenever you would like to change weapons, just type in "filename" and it's done. Pretty simple

Thanks a lot man :D
Can I upload this script for you on www.akimbo.in ?
So more people can use and downnload it :)

[TheWeirdness666]

Sure, go ahead, and don't worry about crediting me with it, lol. And no problem :)

[Dementium4ever]

Wow, quick anwser :)
No worries, I'll credit you. But I've to write a Readme.txt for the installing instractions.
Should I do that, or do you want to do that? (Maybe it's better when you write it, then there are no mistakes in it)

[TheWeirdness666]

Lol, yeah, I will write one up. I'll PM it to you, working on installing my operating system for some people. Here's a screenshot of it, I am currently running my 2nd version of it http://i51.tinypic.com/miezhf.png

I had been working on it for some time now, made the base with LFS (http://linuxfromscratch.org/) and then installed the desktop environment LXDE ontop of it, turned it into a LiveCD, and made an installer for it, now working on 3rd version

[Dementium4ever]

Uhm, you wrote that OS? :O
Thanks in advance for the PM :)

[TheWeirdness666]

Yeah, I followed the LFS to build the system (end result is a terminal-only operating system), downloaded the LXDE binaries (http://lxde.org) and installed it. Installed alot more graphical programs like a calculator, font manager, web browser and such, and then used a few programs to package it into a livecd. And I'm only 17, going to the worst school in Atlanta, Georgia.... lmao

But back on topic, I'll send you script and readme file in a .zip folder

[Dementium4ever]

Kudos, man :O
And thanks so much :D Will be one of the usefullest (Is that right?) script :)

[TheWeirdness666]

No problem, and "most useful" lol

[Dementium4ever]

Hm, thx.
Sorry, english isn't my native language. ( But I'm sure, you found out this earlier :D)

[TheWeirdness666]

Yeah, lol. And the file is in your inbox

[Dementium4ever]

Thx.
I'm gonna upload it soon.

[wolfbr]

thanks for the script, its good for my skin pack : ), in every map, i can change the weapons skins : )

after I test it.

one question, i need diferent skins for each team(like, m4 for ct and ak47 for terror, or only the arms skins in fist person), like cube2, You can do this?

[TheWeirdness666]

I personally have not experimented with it, but I will take a look.

[wolfbr]

thanks, but, I think that some weapons are perfect for terrorists, like it

subgun

sniper
http://www.akimbo.in/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=902
pistol
http://www.akimbo.in/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=906

these weapons can be official for terrorists : D(low poly models, and others weapons for the others weapons like shotgun/carbine and assault rifle)

[V-Man]

:D that's the subgun I use.

[gambino]

:D that's the subgun I use.

Me dos

[TheWeirdness666]

Okay, so I don't run Windows, but I figured out how to use my Linux script on a Windows machine. Instead of running the cmd.exe you can run Cygwin (http://cygwin.com/). It runs exactly like a Linux (Unix) terminal, and you can run all commands and everything on it. I hope this helps!
