| | | '''Adding weapons''' may refer to: |
| ***This guide assumes that you started out with HL2MP and VC++ Express Edition (It's FREE)***
| | * [[Weapons]] - Adding weapons to maps |
| | | * [[Adding a new weapon to your mod]] - Creating custom weapons |
| | |
| | |
| The models
| |
| Weapons consist of 2 models, each with their own prefix. A model named v_???.mdl is a view model this is the model that is seen from the players perspective, this normally consists of not only the weapon model but also the player hands.
| |
| Next is the w_???.mdl; this is known as the world model, these models are used for weapons laying on the ground and also for weapons that you can see in other characters/players hands.
| |
| | |
| | |
| You can make your own or use the CSS one's.
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| Once you have made the relevant models, they go into the folder:
| |
| /nameofmodfolder/models/weapons/
| |
| | |
| The Textures
| |
| The textures/skins for the weapons also need to be placed in the correct folder so once the textures are done, they need to be placed in:
| |
| /nameofmodfolder/materials/models/weapons/
| |
| | |
| weapon_???.txt
| |
| Each weapon has its own script file which can be edited in any .txt program, the weapon script file has many different purposes, which include:- model file names, bucket info, clip size, ammo type, weight, sounds, icons, crosshairs. For pistols start with pistol.txt, and for SMGs MGs, and assault rifle use smg1.txt as a template.
| |
| This is an example of the weapon_pistol.txt file:
| |
| | |
| Code:
| |
| // Pistol
| |
| | |
| WeaponData
| |
| {
| |
| // Weapon data is loaded by both the Game and Client DLLs.
| |
| "printname" "#HL2_Pistol"
| |
| "viewmodel" "models/weapons/v_pistol.mdl"
| |
| "playermodel" "models/weapons/w_pistol.mdl"
| |
| "anim_prefix" "pistol"
| |
| "bucket" "1"
| |
| "bucket_position" "0"
| |
| | |
| "clip_size" "18"
| |
| "primary_ammo" "Pistol"
| |
| "secondary_ammo" "None"
| |
| | |
| "weight" "2"
| |
| "item_flags" "0"
| |
| | |
| // Sounds for the weapon. There is a max of 16 sounds per category (i.e. max 16 "single_shot" sounds)
| |
| SoundData
| |
| {
| |
| | |
| "reload" "Weapon_Pistol.Reload"
| |
| "reload_npc" "Weapon_Pistol.NPC_Reload"
| |
| "empty" "Weapon_Pistol.Empty"
| |
| "single_shot" "Weapon_Pistol.Single"
| |
| "single_shot_npc" "Weapon_Pistol.NPC_Single"
| |
| "special1" "Weapon_Pistol.Special1"
| |
| "special2" "Weapon_Pistol.Special2"
| |
| "burst" "Weapon_Pistol.Burst"
| |
| }
| |
| | |
| // Weapon Sprite data is loaded by the Client DLL.
| |
| TextureData
| |
| {
| |
| "weapon"
| |
| {
| |
| "font" "WeaponIcons"
| |
| "character" "d"
| |
| }
| |
| "weapon_s"
| |
| {
| |
| "font" "WeaponIconsSelected"
| |
| "character" "d"
| |
| }
| |
| "ammo"
| |
| {
| |
| "font" "WeaponIcons"
| |
| "character" "p"
| |
| }
| |
| "crosshair"
| |
| {
| |
| "font" "Crosshairs"
| |
| "character" "Q"
| |
| }
| |
| "autoaim"
| |
| {
| |
| "file" "sprites/crosshairs"
| |
| "x" "0"
| |
| "y" "48"
| |
| "width" "24"
| |
| "height" "24"
| |
| }
| |
| }
| |
| }
| |
| | |
| | |
| so create your weapon_nameofweapon.txt file in the same format as shown and save it in the following folder:
| |
| | |
| /nameofmodfolder/scripts/
| |
| | |
| | |
| "printname" "#HL2_Pistol" --Make this whatever you want
| |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| | |
| Making your weapon show in Hammer -- Not Tested sorry
| |
| To get your weapon to show in hammer you need to add the entry to your .fgd file, which should be saved in sourcesdk/bin/
| |
| | |
| Open it up in notepad or similar, and find where the other (HL2) weapons are referenced. Add yours with them, here is an example:
| |
| @PointClass base(Weapon) studio("models/weapons/w_tazer.mdl") = weapon_tazer : "Tazer" []
| |
| | |
| | |
| ===Make the code for your weapons===
| |
| | |
| | |
| Open:==
| |
| | |
| C:\yourmod\src\cl_dll\hl2_hud\c_weapon__stubs_hl2.cpp
| |
| | |
| add your gun under #ifndef HL2MP (line 27)
| |
| | |
| just copy and paste one of the lines renaming the relevant information
| |
| | |
| Example:
| |
| | |
| STUB_WEAPON_CLASS( weapon_ar2, WeaponAR2, C_HLMachineGun );
| |
| | |
| changed to
| |
| | |
| STUB_WEAPON_CLASS( weapon_m249, WeaponM4A1, C_HLMachineGun );
| |
| | |
| ===Open:===
| |
| C:\yourmod\src\game_shared\hl2mp\hl2mp_gamerules.cpp
| |
| | |
| Find CAmmoDef *GetAmmoDef() (Line 910)
| |
| | |
| Copy and paste the line that is closest to your weapon type, I chose
| |
| | |
| def.AddAmmoType("MP5NAVY",DMG_BULLET,TRACER_LINE_AND_WHIZ,0,0,225,BULLET_IMPULSE(200,1225),0 );
| |
| | |
| Replace MP5NAVY with the ammo name in your script file (weapon_???.txt)
| |
| | |
| | |
| Make the code files where ever you want, I would recommend your C:/modname/src folder. When you complete the code expand under Server -> Sources Files -> HL2MP -> Weapons, right-click on Weapons then Add -> Existing Item and find your .cpp file
| |
| | |
| Do the same for Client -> Sources Files -> HL2MP -> Weapons
| |
| | |
| | |
| also, if you want your weapon to be given with the impulse 101 cheat, add it in this file:
| |
| /dlls/player.cpp
| |
| | |
| NOTE: some of the directory structures may be different, following SDK updates etc. this was written after the large August 2006 update
| |
| | |
| There you have it; you should now have an understanding of how to get a new weapon in-game. Be aware that there is a lot of work to be done that I have not mentioned in detail, such as the code or explaining the weapon_???,txt file fully. Most people should be able to figure out the rest.
| |
| | |
| Good luck and I hope to see some new weapons being made soon.
