KamkrazyIan Posted May 3, 2020 (edited) Back again but this time with a more advanced issue I'm trying add custom weapons to a wad I'm working on and as far as I can find it works the same way as adding monsters. But when I follow those steps for weapons 2 things happen. 1. My DECORATE looks like this actor QuadShotgun : Weapon //29999 { //$Category Weapons //$Title Quad-Shotgun Tag "Quad-Shotgun" obituary "%o was obliterated by %k's Quad-Shotgun!" radius 20 height 16 inventory.pickupmessage "You got the Quad-Barrelled shotgun!" weapon.selectionorder 1335 Weapon.SlotNumber 3 weapon.kickback 350 Weapon.AmmoType1 "Shell" Weapon.AmmoType2 "Shell" Weapon.AmmoGive 8 Weapon.AmmoUse1 1 Weapon.AmmoUse2 4 +Weapon.NoAlert Decal "BulletChip" states { Ready: SHT4 A 1 A_WeaponReady loop Deselect: SHT4 A 1 A_Lower loop Select: SHT4 A 1 A_Raise loop Fire: SHT4 A 6 A_CheckReload TNT1 A 0 A_JumpIfInventory("QuadCheck",4,"Reload") TNT1 A 0 A_AlertMonsters TNT1 A 0 A_PlaySound("QuadShotgun/SingleFire",Chan_Weapon) TNT1 A 0 A_CustomPunch(Random(12,18),0,CPF_NOTURN,"BulletPuff",96) //12-18 x Default Melee Random, without turning to face target.

The conclusion here is that removing bits of code arbitrarily without knowing what they do is like taking an animal and removing random organs. Chances are the critter isn't going to survive. actor QuadShotgun : Weapon 29999 Try this and it should work. 0 Share this post Link to post
