heck, it's been forever. however i believe i have answered this already before in this comment section and i hope my answer when you find it will prove helpful to you

@@KBraid okay I believe I have found it. Thank you. I will put this to good use as I'm making a MW4 mod focused mainly on rebalancing stuff to make weaker mechs more viable, among other things.

@@KBraid Another question. I attempted to turn a regular energy hardpoint into a direct fire hardpoint on the Mad Cat, but it instead became an omnipoint. Is this that problem that you said was tied to the MechID, or is there a solution to regular hardpoints into stuff like direct-fire or ammo-consuming?

i don't fully remember the details anymore, but yes. as far as i can remember the fourth hardpoint type for each component on the mech is locked to whatever the mechid has it hardcoded to be

@@KBraid so the only way to get those non-omnipoints is to fuck around with the files that contain the mechID?

if you mean the models themselves, they are a very archaic format so it would best to look on the internet for someone who has already done so

i'm terrible at tutorializing and MW4 modding is incredibly complicated. and at the current depth of my knowledge you can only add weapons into the game by replacing existing weapons.

@@KBraid OK, but please do your best, i really want to add new weapons, or tell me here the steps to do so. 🙏🏻

What happens when you put a Flea engine in an Atlas? Anwser: Nothing, lol. You'll get a nonfunctional assault, since Atlas needs a 200-class engine for a minimal amount of power to work properly, and any Flea configuration boasts a 120-class engine.

@@mifodiyzalesskiy3781 ah, fellow tabletop player i see

probobly. It's been a long time so i can't recall how to do so.

@@KBraid when you remember how you can tell me ;)

@@KBraid Do you know how to Change weapon hardpoints of a mech?

You need to be a little more spesific, i could think of three things that fit what you are asking me. Do you mean changing their size? Yes i know how to do that. Do you mean turning hardpoint types on or off? Yes i know that one to, it's in fact the same thing as changing their size. Or do you mean switching the omni hardpoint to become other types of hardpoints? That one i do not know, as that is tied to the MechID which is a mystery i have yet to solve.

@@KBraid "Do you mean changing their size? Yes i know how to do that. Do you mean turning hardpoint types on or off?" yes those, but I want to change the weapon too especially if I wanted to change HBK-5G to a different variant, though is it possible to make a copy of a mech and change it's hard points and make it work in game?

the fx files for the Xpulse laser can be found at numbers 6799 to 6783 in the textures subfolder of textures.mw4, mussle flashes can be found in the files between 6839 and 6877 however i do not know which ones are the flashes for the Xpulse.

I haven't dabbled in changing sound effect code, i've only ever simply edited sound files. And my guess is .wav{handle} serves the same purpose as {Element} or {gamemodel} in that its requirement is just a quirk of the game engine making things a little more complicated then they need to be. if you open .wav{handle} with a hex editor bytes 3-4 are reference numbers for the .wav of the same name. 00 00[## ##] 02 00 00 00 01 01

@@KBraid ok thanks I will test it

not soon, still experimenting with what i can get away with

:) yes a while ago

in the weapon's hex data, set 48 and 4C (how many times the weapon fires in a salvo and how much ammo is consumed per salvo) to the decimal value of how many shots you want to fire, then 74-77 (time between shots in a salvo) which is a floating point to something small like 0.05, if that's too fast or too slow try to raise or lower that value till it comes out how you like it.

@@KBraid That testing was hard and now LRMS look stupid!!!

@@happilyendme3521 i'm not sure how i could help, sorry. I don't know what you've done without comparing the file

@@KBraid Ok first i added 5 shots bug in LRM5 then it's just go straight like whaat

i've been making a flow chart to keep track of what does what. drive.google.com/file/d/1DeiybqZl9I7a8vy_StHITXgDGggyVha3/view?usp=sharing jumpjets are located at the hex coordinate 640 in the mech's .data{gamemodel}

i wasn't really thinking with my previous reply, to be my most helpful i should share all my resources! drive.google.com/open?id=1l_FDWBGSS3wZ-3P1Z0tVhHH8rLHFnaxG

Thanks bro this would help me in SL-BT Mod!

one i've been making, it's no where near done yet

Nice job so far, good to see people still play the game :)
