How to add usable weapon into a mission? SOLVED

[pjakub88]

Hello everyone,

i would like to add usable baseball bat weapon to the Mission 17 - Prison.

How can I do this?

I added a baseball bat model using Mafia World Editor, but the player wasn't able to take it and use as a weapon. Maybe i need to add a specific script for that?

It certainly could be done in the game, because in few missions we are able to pick up various weapons and use them in combat (like knive in the Hotel Corleone, Thompson 1928 in Clark's Motel, etc).

Hello, it's very easy.
You need DC ED 2 Editor for this. Open the mission\scene2 and click on "add object". Then select Object Defintions\Script in the window and name the script exactly like the object you created in the MWE.

Now check whether there is an object of the same name for your created object definitions. (right click on your script in the left tree and "Switch to Object"; it must switch to the Object!) if so, your path works.

Now open your script and enter the following (for a weapon that disappears when you pick it up):
_______________________________________________________
dim_act 1
dim_frm 1
findactor 0, "Tommy" (this line isn´t n necessary I guess)
findframe 0, "NAME OF YOUR BASEBALLBAT IN MWE"
createweaponfromframe 0,4,0,0
end

____________________________________________________

If you want to pick up many weapons on the object, write:

__________________________________________________

dim_act 1
dim_flt 1
findactor 0, "Tommy"

label a
detector_waitforuse

human_addweapon 0,4,0,0

goto a
__________________________________________________

You could also include commands so it's not free, as well as console_addtext, but as I wrote it is the simplest.

If you have any questions or something doesn't work, just ask.

(It would be very helpful for you if you download the mafia "Script and data reference"!, there you can find all commands)
