This tutorial maybe a starting point for modding weapons and ammo. I was using information revealed by niphty in his great tutorial - Basic Modding with Playable Examples. So what another tutorial for? Well, I will try to show you how to do this in a simple step-by-step manner. Besides I will add some my own 'findings' and I'll show you how to modd ammo. I hope you'll enjoy this one ...

Modding weapons

There are three ways to mod weapons in stalker. I will give you a short description for each way:

Editing existing weapons

This is the simplest way, however you can't edit unique weapons:

  1. choose which weapon you want to mod
  2. your weapon is located in configweapons, file name: w_weaponname.ltx (example: w_fn2000.ltx for FT 200M)
  3. edit file using information provided below to modd your weapon
  4. if you want, you can reskin this weapon - textures are located in textureswpn, file name: wpn_weaponname.dds (FT 200M example: wpn_fn2000.dds); look at editing *.dds files below
  5. (optional) edit weapon description in configtextengstring_table_enc_weapons.xml

Modding existing weapons

This tutorial will describe this approach:

  1. choose weapon you want to mod
  2. create section with your weapon in configmiscunique_items.ltx
  3. inherit some properties from base weapon, add new features
  4. (optional) create hud icon (inventory icon) of your weapon
  5. (optional) create new textures and meshes (ogf files sucks so much!)
  6. (optional) edit weapon description in configtextengstring_table_enc_weapons.xml
  7. enable weapon (stash/task reward/trader's stock)

Creating completely new weapons

This is the toughest way:

  1. imagine the weapon you want to create
  2. create it somehow in ogf file - use the tutorials here: Weapon import and Weapon model creation (HUD)
  3. create textures textureswpnwpn_yourweaponname.dds and bumps for it
  4. create weapon properties file configweaponsw_yourweaponname.ltx
  5. include it in weapons.ltx
  6. create and add weapon description in configtextengstring_table_enc_weapons.xml
  7. enable weapon (stash/task reward/trader's stock)

Modding existing weapons - variables

As I said earlier we'll create new weapons by inheriting some properties from base weapons. But before we do this we have to know which variables can help us in this task. There are plenty such variables but I will cover only few, most valuable of them. So here we go:

[wpn_weaponname_mnumber]:wpn_baseweaponname (m stands for modified) - new weapon section; for programmers: it is something like object oriented approach (inheritance); for non-programmers: this is really helpful because we don't have to list all properties of our new weapon, we just inherit some properties from base weapon and then we can change base weapon properties by editing them; in that way our new weapon will have 'new features' (oh God, i hope this make sense ...)

For example, say you want to create a new Obokan. Starting point of the new Obokan section will looks like this one:

Now, if you want to create another one and use some features you enabled in wpn_abakan_m1, you can do this:

This means that: you created a new Obokan called wpn_abakan_m2 which inherited some features from wpn_abakan_m1 which inherits some features from the original Obokan (wpn_abakan)

$spawn - this is a name and section in level editor, whatever it means it goes in this manner: 'weaponswpn-baseweaponname'

$npc - it PROBABLY means: whether NPC can carry this type of weapon or not. You can use two values: on or off

description - description of new weapon (configtextengstring_table_enc_weapons.xml)

inv_name - name of a new weaponinv_name_short - short name of a new weapon

There are two ways to name your weapon:

or:

Of course you will probably want to give your weapon some fancy name, so you can bind it to those variables. About the second way - you will have to add wpn-weaponname_mnumber variable name to configtextengstring_table_enc_weapons.xml

weapon_class - class of the weapon

  • sniper_rifle
  • assault_rifle
  • shotgun
  • heavy_weapon - only RPG
  • pistols don't have a class - do not use weapon_class if you are modding pistol
  • inv_weight - unloaded weapon weight

fire_modes - this is firing mode; there are 4 values (NOT FOR ALL WEAPONS):

  • -1 - full auto
  • 1 - single shot
  • 2 - double burst
  • 3 - triple burst
  • scope_status - scope
  • silencer_status - silencer
  • grenade_launcher_status - grenade launcher

The preceding three variables may have these values (NOT FOR ALL WEAPONS):

  • 0 - no addon
  • 1 - permanent addon
  • 2 - attachable addon
  • zoom_enabled - can we zoom in/out (true or false)
  • scope_zoom_factor - zoom factor when you are using scope; lower values = you can see further. For example: first image use scope_zoom_factor = 15 (standard Vintar value) while the secon one use
  • scope_zoom_factor = 10 (modded Vintar value)
  • scope_texture - we can assign different textures, for example: first image - Vintar with normal scope texture, the second one - Vintar with GP 36 scope texture
  • ammo_class - type of ammo which your gun will use, for example:
  • ammo_mag_size - clip (magazine) size
  • condition_shot_dec - how much weapon condition is lost per round fired
  • misfire_probability - chance that your weapon will jam
  • cost - the price of the weapon
  • sprint_allowed - while carrying heavy weapons you can't sprint (false). If you want to sprint with, say Dragunov assign true value
  • inv_grid_x and inv_grid_y - position of inventory (hud) icon. More on that later
  • rpm - how many rounds per minute your weapon can fire
  • slot - weapon slot:
    • 1 - primary slot (pistols slot)
    • 2 - secondary slot (assault rifles slot)

All weapon's sounds can be found in soundsweapons

  • snd_draw - sound when you grab weapon from holster
  • snd_holster - sound when hiding weapon to holster
  • snd_shoot - standard shot sound
  • snd_shoot1 - shot sound 1
  • snd_shoot2 - shot sound 2
  • snd_shoot3 - shot sound 3
  • snd_empty - empty clip sound
  • snd_reload - reload sound
  • snd_shoot_grenade - grenade shot sound
  • snd_reload_grenade - loading grenade sound
  • ammo_limit and ammo_elapsed - i've no idea what they means but they are obsolete, so don't use them

Modding our first weapon - finally

There is one disabled task whose target is upgraded Vintar BC. Well, there is no modified Vintar but we will change it here. Paste this into configmiscunique_items.ltx:

and description (configtextengstring_table_enc_weapons.xml):

Ok, now he have to obtain it somehow. We know how to do that with stashes (Cheating with stashes - a little tutorial) and lately with task's rewards (Cheating with tasks - tutorial). Let's use the second approach ...

-- task_manager.ltx

Metro 2033 Holster Weapon

Nice, but there is something wrong with our Vintar inventory icon. Well, all unique weapons are marked with white arrow. How can we do that? All hud icons are located in one file texturesuiui_icon_equipment.dds.

We are going to edit this file, but to do this we need some external tools. This is dds file, to edit it we need Adobe Photoshop with dds plugin. However i prefer Gimp because it's freeware, smaller and faster than Photoshop. Besides i just like Gimp and hate jasc software Smile

Please readEditing ui icon equipment.dds, before you proceed.

Here you can download Gimp:http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/stable.html

  1. First download and install GTK+ 2 Runtime Environment (~6 MB)
  2. Then download and install Gimp (~8 MB)
  3. Download dds plugin here: http://registry.gimp.org/plugin?id=4816 (use Windows binaries link) (~200 KB)

To install dds plugin simply copy whole zip contents to X:Program FilesGIMP-2.0libgimp2.0plug-ins. Now, step-by-step:

  1. Run Gimp and open ui_icon_equipment.dds file
  2. Use 'select rectangular regions' tool (or press 'R') and mark Vintar BC
  3. Press CTRL+C to copy selected region, press CTRL+V to paste it and then move it below unique suits
  4. Now do the same thing with white arrow image, stick it to Vintar
  5. Save file

Well that's all, now we have our hud icon, however with a little bit fancy you can reskin our new Vintar.

Stalker Call Of Pripyat Console Commands

Ok, now we have to mark in unique_items.ltx that we want to use our inventory icon for upgraded Vintar. We will need inv_grid_x and inv_grid_y variables. This image maybe helpful (this is original image without our Vintar icon, i've added some helpful marks) - just find square where our Vintar is:

so our new Vintar hud icon should be in square (right below Kombez):

Some other examples to clarify this method:

Guitar:

RPG:

How

Thunder:

Now you should get it.

Ok let's back to our new Vintar (this time without useless variables):

Modding ammo

Well, modding ammo is pretty same as modding weapons. All ammo, grenades and addons descriptions you can find in file configweaponsweapons.ltx. As an example we will modd ammo_9x18_pbp, this one:

So here we go:


Something to fire our new fancy bullets, say, PMm - configweaponsw_pm.ltx

and description: configtextengstring_table_enc_weapons.xml

Finally we made:

  • custom ammo icon
  • armor piercing better than Dragunov ammo (k_piercing)
  • explosive bullets (borrowed from Dragunov)
  • you can see the bullet trace (borrowed from Dragunov)
  • impulse borrowed from Gauss rifle (upgraded of course)

Jesus, well done this one. Wolf died pretty quick with his AK. And rookies ... they ... well they just fly away up in the sky ... literally
