how do you add secondary triggers on weapons? i'm trying to make the assault rifle have a secondary fire instead of throwing grenades

Conure made a chunk cloner that should do the job. It may have been lost in the server move, though.

damn... then is there any other way? i tried changing the assault rifles tag to the banshee then changing all the dependencies to match in hht but it just removed it from the map (shows up as a solid red block in sparkedit but not in the game at all)

You can duplicate the banshee gun and then swap the weapon dependency for the assault rifle for it.

I'd say dupe the plasma pistol and go from there, thats how I did it.

kevinnnnn, i already tried that and it didnt work.
modfox, could you go into more detail?

Okay, well first you would go duplicating the plasma pistol, or if you don't need it just replace it. Duplicating tut: http://forums.halomods.com/viewtopic.ph ... 48&t=70115
And then you just change the model and all that fancy stuff to the AR.
then you just change your projectiles to what you need and so on.

actually (i cant believe this didnt come to me sooner) if that would just make a second plasma pistol, i dont even need to do that, i can just make the plasma pistol do that, but how would i make the secondary trigger set to the grenade button?

Just swap the charged PP bolt projectile to a grenade.

I am pretty sure you would have to do it in sapien or one of those editors.

CE would be easiest. You dupe the pp. You could also accomplish this with hex editing.

It may take some messing around so you have to actually charge it to shoot (Swap the charged for regular) and then the secondary fire (nade) could be regular shot and the right trigger (Fire) could be your charged shot.

That should work.

Also, try Conure's new app Chunk Cloner to see if it adds the option to other guns.
