Modding Rage's weapon/ammo settings

Post » Tue Dec 13, 2011 10:57 am

Because I find the restriction of all ammo to 999 to be rather stupid, I looked for ways to change it. By following http://forum.xentax.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=7463 discussion I was able to unpack the gameresources.resources file and edit the relevant settings (max ammo from 999 to 999999), but I can't get the game to use the edited files. Repacking it doesn't work because, apparently, the unpacker tool can't do the job properly (yes, I was careful to keep the files at the same size; it seems the unpack script isn't fully cooked), so I need to find some way of getting Rage to work with unpacked resources. I've tried simply unpacking the resources file in the base folder, but the game ignored the unpacked files. So I tried removing gameresources.resources in an attempt to force Rage to default to the unpacked resources, but it just crashed.

Any ideas? I'm thinking maybe a command-line argument to make it see the unpacked files? Or... I don't know, anything else?
