Backup your battle rifle weapon tag.


1. Open the tag, scroll down to "Barrels". Hit duplicate.

2. Set the "shots per fire" in your duplicated barrel (secondary) to 1. Edit any other settings if you wish (projectile, accuracy, etc).

3. Scroll up to "New Triggers". Set the secondary barrel from primary to secondary.

4. Make sure the behavior is set to latch-zoom. (It should be by default in the battle rifle tag).

Shouldn't this belong in the released section because it is a tutorial! Also nice find. 1 shot burst is better than 3 shot anyways.

Awesome! Is it possible to make the one shot more powerful?

Yes, make it use a different projectile with a different damage effect.

what one could also do is make the 1-shots more accurate and reduce the time between shots. It's a bit nicer that way.

Can this weapon be changed to dual weld? I seen a check box in a weapon tag that looked like it gives that option.

But then the gameplay would be so unbalanced. I mean think about it. If you ran around with dual wielded BR's then you would be invincible. If you ever wanted to make it dual wield you would have to dramatically lower the damage rate.

I dont think balancing is one of his concerns

Balancing both hands with some large weapons would be awsome but I was just wondering if it was possible. LoL

I think when they say balancing, they meant how fair it is compared to other cheap weapons (rocket, sword, etc.)

So basically you can set it to dual wield but you wont see the gun on your screen- the left one and its fireable but just not viewable.


It works but its not viewable. (that makes more sence i think.)

It's attached to the left hand, in whatever position that may be. I'll get a pic of what i mean later.

That looks pretty kickass. Aside from the f'd up fp view, it looks half decent. im sure someone will fix it up in some future mod.

Is the H2 HEK now unlocked or something? Or can you edit weapon tags?

Its h2x i think, yet you can do it on h2v
Also CAD is there a way to change the color of the needler needles to red w/o skinning and changing shaders?

hello guys,

i am new and a great noob at this things.
can someone tell me what i should do with the battle_rifle.weapon tag thing after i editted it?

Correct me if i'm wrong but i'd rename it and save in the same folder as the original. And go to the tags/multiplayer/weapons folder and edit the battle rifle's tag file so it sees that file and rename that one too.

Welcome to the forums. To use the new .weapon tag in your map, you need to reference it in a new item_collection tag, which you make in tags\multiplayer\single_weapons

hey thanks but i already figured it out.

what i did was:
~make a new item_collection
~open sapien and added the new item_collection

and now i can shoot wraith bullets with a br.
and this is a vid of me shooting rockets with br:

Why do all members bump old threads? It's not that old, but it's old enough not to be bumped.

Also, if I had H2 I'd try this out. :(
