i would like to know the added value to meta offset for accuracy and ROF too...

Deadly_Shadow do you have any composed file that lists some values to add to any meta offset of a certain type to get specific ingame values?

That would be EXTREMELY helpful! :idea:

anyway

I'm stuck on a lil learning project I'm doing. I'm trying to figure out how to make something shoot more than 1 bullet at a time (other than a shotgun)... is that possible?

I'm also confused on the damage script -- I went to Iron_Forge's Assault on the Control Room file (Thanks www.joaorp.com for hosting those html files in your downloads section and big thanks to Iron_Forge for writing it all) to find the meta for the damage of the scorpion's shell explosion and added AF2 to it (*is that number correct?*). The meta was 48B3F18 and the number I got from adding AF2 was 48B4A0A. I went to that offset in the .map file and looked to see that it is even harder to find something there than it would be in the weapons file. None of the bytes there seemed that they could *possibly* represent anything understandable (there is no easily accessable # value for dmg as far as I know).

Any help or attempt at helping is much appreciated!

Mike

P.S. Does anybody know what general numbers to look for based on whether the gun is fast/medium-fast/medium/medium-slow/slow for rate of fire?

offsets, and your gunna have to recognize them both.. usually people give u the big one, and then u switch around find section in file, and change it.. or is the other way around.. the normal way is the way its given, then switched to find it
