Ok then I'll just wait for the mod tools, I hope they come out fast [2guns]
But while I'm waiting I would like to a learn a bit more about weapons modding. I already read the weapon mod tuts in the tut section of cod1, but if anyone has more tuts or links to other sites, please tell me [thumbs_up]

and I can't record any ingame because fraps comes out crappy quality sound


yes, fraps audio quality is really poor. and if your framerate is going down while recording, audio is getting async :(
an audio recorder that checks fps and syncs it later to video, that would be awesome ;)

Yep without the mod tools you wont have the maya plugins to model your own all you can do for now is re-skin the stock weapons, change their weaponinfo and maybe change the sound? (i'm not sure on that as i've not actually browesed the sound files in full) but any mod like that will have to be launched from the modwarfare since it wont read iwd's in the main folder anymore


You say I can re-skin the stock weapons, but I can't find the stock skins [confused], where are they located?

actually i'm not so sure on that now, I thought the skins were the weapon_ ... files but that doesn't seem true, I know you can change the camoflague materials. I think the skins must be there somewhere but my god its a pain to go through every single one to find them

textures: main\iw_00.iwd to iw_06.iwd and iw_12.iwd

convert them to dds, edit (eg. photoshop or gimp using nvidia dds plugin), save as dxt1/3/5 (depens on alpha) with mipmaps, convert back to iwi (make sure it has the ORIGINAL NAME, not something like out_dds in it), put it into a folder called images, zip this folder and rename file extension to .iwd and put that file into another new folder (eg. MyTextureMod) and move it into Mods\ folder. run cod4, selects mods, in this case MyTextureMod and Lunch. now you should see your textures in-game where the original texture usally are.

custom weapon camos are possible too as you can see here: http://modcod4.com/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?744

BOGUS!!! The only things you need to mod the weapons for now is the weapon file copied to your desktop, a working enter key, and a lot of patience. Here's a file that can be used to edit a Barrett .50Cal

The part separated is what you would most likely use to make weapon mods, such as more ammo or more damage. I'm still trying to figure out what the last bottom bit means, my guess is it defines what efx are what, like
Code:
weap_m82_lift_plr = getefx("weap_m82_lift_plr");

or something along those lines. and please dont ask about how I said i would make WFE for CoD4, cuz i'm a complete noob at C scripting, and seems to be the shiz for these programmer dudes, and from what I hear, C++ is only harder.

meh, I only didn't think we could because I messed up the new pk3 and didn't see any changes.

By the way, why is using the enter key so important...It's a lot quicker to leave it as it is.

And, if I may say so, that's the second time you've told me how to mod weapons, even having seen one or two of my mods.

I'm completely new to weopon/skin modding, I don't understand a word of what you're saying [crazy]. But you don't bother it, I don't feel like changing the skins anyway [cool]
