All you need to do is edit M99SniperRifle.uc and then compile the class and you're done.
You can get that file by opening up UnrealEd, going to Actor classes, loading BWBPWeaponPack2, and then pressing export all scripts.

I've got a quick question: I want to edit the ammo capacity values of some of the weapons for my own use (like the M99 Anti material rifle to hold 5 rounds, etc) How would I go about doing that? Do I need the source code for the mod, or is there a file that I can edit? thanks. x01660 |

TalonHunter wrote: there is a mod called weaponstuff that can do that in game(for those of us that give UnrealEd allergic reactions (: )From what I recall though, it doesn't work very well with BW. I could be wrong though as it tends to choke on copies of UT2k4 with lots of weapon mods, and I never had it alone with BW. Thing is weaponstuff(and vehiclestuff) can only call 80 different weapons/shot types(or vehicles/turrets). But if you are running UT with few such weapon mods the 'stuff' mutators can be alot of fun. |

I'm really sorry to bump this old thread but I am a complete noob with UnrealEd and UT2004 modding in general. I would like to edit SRS-900 magazine size, but I have no idea how to do it... I tried following Sgt. Kelly's advice above but I am completely lost and have no idea what I'm doing. I know programming though. But nothing about UnrealEd or UT2004 modding. Your help is appreciated. Thanks!

Try getting something like Notepad++ which allows you to open some stuff. That'll at least let you look at it to get a start. after that, i dunno... |

Thanks, but, what files to look at? |
|
| Author: | Blade sword [ Mon Apr 01, 2013 3:16 pm ] |
| Post subject: | Re: Editing BW |
Using notepad ++ or Unreal Development Environement The file to look at is SRS900Rifle.uc just look the whole column at the bottom with values |

I don't have file named SRS900Rifle.uc  I have found the setting MagAmmo = 20 using UE Explorer, in BallisticV25.u. But I tried to open it in UnrealED (in the Actor Classes tab) but I couldn't find any BallisticV25 entry. Your help is appreciated! Thank you

Make sure you load BallisticV25.u in the actor browser first. |

I did, using the open file dialog. still can't find anything. |

| Post subject: | Re: Editing BW |
You have to export ballistic weapons files into uc files to be able to edit these files. |

| Author: | pilau [ Tue Apr 02, 2013 1:57 am ] |
| Post subject: | Re: Editing BW |
And for that I need to use UCC right? |
|
| Author: | Blade sword [ Tue Apr 02, 2013 2:17 am ] |

UCC or Ued depends what you want to use |

If you have extracted the stuff you can edit the code with it. It's a nice tool for beginners as it does have some uscript awareness. You can edit the file and make a mutator that will work and the modified rifle with be your weapon with your custom settings |

I have managed to extract the SRS900Rifle class (only, nothing else) but I have no idea how to re-compile it as a mutator. Also, some of the code appears as gibberish - I can send a screenshot if it would help to diagnose am I doing wrong |

| Author: | Blade sword [ Wed Apr 03, 2013 2:05 pm ] |
| Post subject: | Re: Editing BW |
depends some parts of the code serves to manage some of its special features like the on scope ammo counter, stabilizer and such things. but if it's real gibberish stuff lots of unknown symbols then to recompile it; it would be quite impossible but if there is a lot of crap. |

| Post subject: | Re: Editing BW |
So I don't understand, is it possible or not possible to do it? I thought UT2004 was famous for how easily moddable it is... |
|
| Author: | Blade sword [ Thu Apr 04, 2013 4:31 am ] |
| Post subject: | Re: Editing BW |
Yes but if you the files get badly extracted you will have some problems repacking them or make use of them for a mutator. You just need to see if there is non understandable symbols. |

| Post subject: | Re: Editing BW |
Thanks for replying. There are weird symbols. What should I do with that? |
