Title: Modding weapon data
Post by: Merlin on May 17, 2013, 08:51:31 am

Long time fan, decided to redownload it(Wanted to wait for 2.5 but that's gonna be awhile).

This time I also wanted to try modding somethings. Nothing big, just like new ammo types. However I couldn't find where the weapon data or even the equipment data in general was. So where would that be?

If you've got a bunch of pk3 files in /ufoai/base/, these need to be unpacked (like normal zip files). This will expose all of the files you're looking for.

Then to mod the weapon data you'll want to look into /base/ufos/ and read up on the UFO script files (http://ufoai.org/wiki/UFO-Scripts).

Right thanks. I'll see what I can do now.
