Tutorial on how to add new ammo type?

Post » Tue May 17, 2011 7:22 am

Hello,

I'm trying to add a few new ammo types to FNV, specifically new flavors of 25mm and 40mm grenades and missiles.. I see how to add new ammo types in the GECK, but all of the types I want to add have some kind of effect - EMP, +damage, -DT, etc. I can't figure out how to set those effects, nor how to make sure the game knows that my trusty Thump-Thump can use these shiny new 40mm HE grenades. Are there tutorials somewhere that can help me? I googled and searched the GECK wiki and came up empty.

Thanks for your time :)

Make a new ammo in the ammo section, then add that ammo to the form list of the gun you want. Bam, done.

As for adding effect... too lazy to explain...

Thanks, that helped some. But when I go to add the ammo to the form list, in this case I'm adding 40mm HE, I open up the AmmoList40mmGrenade, right click, edit, and nothing happens. How do I actually add the ammo to the ammo's form list?

For effects, I figured that out - combination of AmmoEffects and Explosions.

Edit: Nevermind, found out how to on the GECK wiki. Can't believe I overlooked that the first 3 items I read the page, lol.
