Making New Weapons - Molnija - 09-07-2018
Hi, How can I Use the default Weapons and files to make new weapons with different stats and different sounds but still keep the originals safe. And if I can how would I add them into the game to use.

Okay, So I have no idea what those are and to be honest they give me a headache.

Which Files to I need to copy and stuff like that?
RE: Making New Weapons - BuddyFriendGuy - 09-29-2018
@Molnija, do you mean you just want to change things like the damage points the current weapons make, and their firing sounds, etc.? For that, you don't need to write code.
To replace the sound with your customized sound, look in your Xonotic data folder, and create a directory called sound, then under it a directory called weapons, and put your own weapon sounds there to replace the original ones. You can find the filenames of the weapon sounds here.
For example, if you want to have your own crylink_fire.ogg sound, put your own file in (assuming you are using Linux with default path settings; if you are using other OS, see here):
~/.xonotic/data/sound/weapons/crylink_fire.ogg
Then run Xonotic. Your file will be used instead of the default sound.
To change weapon damages, see this thread.
Hope this helps.

I've already done that, but I want to have more weapon choices with different sounds. Cause it gets boring with only the default weapons and stuff.

Can anyone help me out with this which files do I copcopy and edit and stuff like that.
RE: Making New Weapons - BuddyFriendGuy - 10-06-2018
My post was about how to replace the sound. I thought you already did that, no?

I know how to change those, Ive done so multiple times. I want to make a different weapon with the sound and specs and stuff.

Yeah, if thats even possible.
-New Weapons from the old ones with different stats and sounds from the original.

First, you will need to checkout and built a git version of Xonotic.
Okay, Hopefully I don't mess up anything @_O

So I got a copy and stuff. So now what do I need to copy and edit. also im using the one I just cloned (msys64) right? Then I compile it and itll show up in game??

It won't overwrite your downloaded version but will use the same configuration files as a non-git version. Once you have git version running, you can start editing QC files in data/xonotic-data.pk3dir/qcsrc
when I run the ./all run xonotic or similar commands it says darkplaces/darkplaces not found aborting :/

ill just erase the whole thing and redo it since it says I already have all of them

I got to that part but what do I edit and change to make a new weapon and do I register the weapon somewhere or it just shows up, cause I have no earthly idea.

My advice is to just experiment with it until you find what works, then document it.

I share the guide of developers which I've been learning, there is a weapons section from the Programming QuakeC stuff, where explains the programming part of the weapons: https://gitlab.com/xonotic/xonotic/-/wikis/Programming-QuakeC-stuff-in-Xonotic#weapon-functions
