I've finally finished doing most of the necessary code for the weapons I did so far. There's some little issues, such as muzzle flashes, but I'll edit those once I get most of the weapons and actors in. Many thanks go to RR_Raptor65 for making the base actors, sprites, and sounds. Now, onto the mod.
Factions of World War II
RR_Raptor65 originally started this project. I have simply added quite a bit to the mod, including but definitely not limited to:
- Removing mags (kinda glitchy, would like help)
- Almost 30 more weapons
- Respective ammo for the new weapons
- Balanced the weapons
- Some editing here and there
The mod will become quite extensive if we continue work at the pace I've been working. I'm hoping we can implement stationary weapons, mobile weapon emplacements, trenches, and even more weapons and factions. However, there's a limit to the amount of weapons/actors/etc we can make, so once we hit that limit, the mod is final (unless RR_Raptor65/me want to change things).
I'm hoping the mod gets some good ideas and feedback, as I've got a bit of time on my hands and would love to make this the best mod for what it's based upon. Here's a picture of most of the included weapons. The "Roma" faction weapons are not included(as that faction is fictional), nor the Winchester M1912 (I forgot about it).
Currently there is America, Germany, Russia, Italy, Britain, and Japan. Hopefully we'll have more weapons for more factions by the final version
Installation:
NOTE: The base.rte does not replace anything. If you wish to look inside it, there is just some things that are required for this mod to work with B22. In a later version, RR_Raptor65/me will most likely make it just one .rte. What is inside the missions.rte is an index.ini that changes the game to NOT load missions/activities.ini; Instead, the WWII mod loads it after everything else is loaded, to prevent issues with the activities that are in there. On that note, all the activities in there are for each faction; If you want to fight Germans, then rename your activities to something like "Backup Activities.ini", then rename the German Activities.ini to just Activities.ini. Replace German with whatever faction, and there you have it. If you do not wish to replace your index, just make a backup of it, extract the contents, and replace the new index.ini with your backup.
1. Extract the contents of the .7z to your Cortex Command installation directory.
2. If you wish to use any of the provided activities, refer to what I said in the note.
