Decided to pick the game up again, cause its my all time fav.

Years ago i rem i used to edit the weapons file to get unlimited ammo and stuff like that....

I'm on windows seven now and for the life of me i cannot find it.

I searched the web and it says it should be in the users saved gave folder.... but its not there...

Is it because i haven't got up to the point in the game where you can choose weapons

Also i cannot find the saved game file. I'm not sure if this is because of windows 7 or GOTY edition..

Thanks in advance, im not sure if this is the right place to post this, so i will post in a few sections relating to this and once i get a response ill delete...

I'm completely out of practice concerning scripts and configs, so the first question is quite "noobish". But I wasn't able to find any clue about it - neither here nor in the depths of the world wide web.

How can I define wether a magazine takes up a primary mag slot or a pistol mag slot?

The second question is a bit more specific and might sound a bit odd:

How can I define a "weaponless" magazine like grenades or stachels, while making them completely useless?

Let me explain:
I need those mags as "consumables", like firstaid kits, but they must not have any actual funktionality. My first approach was to make them simply a subclass of an allready existing magazine (M16 in this case). Since the weapon selection is quite restricted in my mission, I was perfectly fine with firstaid kits you could theoretically stuff into a M16 and unleash a band-aid hell upon an enemy - since there is simply not a single M16 in my mission to do so. The problem is that you cannot pick up magazines (from dead soldiers/crates/vehicle cargo) if you don't have the weapon which uses them.
My second approach was to derive them from grenades. But after that i was able select them as a weapon and throw them (band-aid hell on a diet, so to speak, since they did not explode).

Now I came up with two Ideas:
The first was to derive them from stachel charges, since the "put" weapon is (like "throw" for grenades) allready available for soldiers. But i fear it leaves me with two problems: First of all the typical "put" porpably appears in the action list, which is quite annoying. The second is that stachel charges appear as a weapon in the upper left info box if the unit has no other weapon in its inventory.

My second idea was to create a dummy weapon with "weaponType = WeaponNoSlot" to prevent it from beeing equiped or used somehow. But again I fear that the mag is displayed as a weapon, if no other weapon is available (like the stachel charge).

Perhaps someone has an idea how to get around those issues. ]]> Miburec http://forums.bistudio.com/showthread.php?155905-2-questions-about-magazines-config
