you can't ADD weapons to the game. you can only edit the ones that are already there.
the sounds are in the SFX folder.
the interface are in INTERFACE-GFX and GUNS folder
the ingame weapons are in the WEAPONS-GFX folder.


let your imagenation do the rest:)

Why do you guys allways leave out the most important bit?
To change the properties of a gun (damge, speed, reloadtime, bulletstyle etc.) open the weapons.ini (or weapons configuration settings) a play around with it.

Why does all newbies do that when they get their hands into weapons.ini . It lags so much. Why dont you guys make a real weapon mod. Good. With USP modded. It holds 15 bullets.
Anyways.
Im here to help. Believe me. THat was all just bull''manour''.
If u want to improve ur weaponsmenu craphix to look good!!!. There are lots of tutorials around here. Search. Let me get a goodone for you. Just a sec: damn i cant find it anywhere. Well there should be tutorial of shading. I'll edit this post if i find it. xD that was really helpfull xD!!!

anyways. u can use many programs to make the graphics (i use PaintShopPro 9).
-PSP 9
-Adobe photoshop
-MS paint
-Gimp
-use google to find more

and if u want PSP 9 or Adobe PS, u can either buy them for ridiculous prices OR get a limewire 4.10 and download them as warez(FREE STUFF DUDE!!!1 w00t). (be careful for viruses tho)

Dam you, I have 8 :(
Anyway, Explosive weapons are not unbalanced if the whole mod is way overpowered. Take my server (Dezonus Devastation) for instance. It may seem absolutely ridiculus, but all the weapons in it are. However, It can only really be run in Deathmatch.

I can understand why they do it, weapons.ini is fun ^^
as for the 'lame laggy [CENSORED] servers' I made a weapons.ini once..
Think I named it 'insanity mod' all weapons are overpowerd to the max..
Still I spent 2days balancing it..

For large warez I'd go with Torrents btw
