i have put other weapons,vehicle and base tags into my maps with no problems.
the tag i'm trying to add to my map is also another weapon tag,i had to create an item_collection file for it which i have done.then the tag is added to my map with sapien but when i open my map ingame my weapon can not be picked up.

Your biped might not have the animations to pick up that weapon.
Try changing the weapon label in the .weapon tag to something like ar.

That is probably the problem.

okay thanks guys i will go and try that now.

i tried renaming it but still no joy,still can't pick it up ( all the correct files are in the tags set)

how many starting equipment do you have?

only the sniper rifle and the weapon im trying to add,which is the C4 from the hugeass tags pack

You are trying to place C4? You need the C4 to be equipment to be a weapon.


-Skidrow

i was just trying to set the C4 as a secondary weapon along side the sniper rifle.

But the C4 doesn't count as a weapon. At least if the C4 is like the C4 in other maps. Is it the C4 like on extinction where you pick up a black box with numbers on it? If it is that type then how it works is you walk over it and it picks it up like when you get grenades. Then when you fore you throw the box and the numbers go down to 0 and KA-BOOM. Is it that type of C4?

...

No...

The C4 IS a weapon, but it has the boxes that say "must be picked up" and "doesn't count towards maximum" checked.

@ skidrow yeah it's the same C4 box i know what you mean lol

@gamma927 i have tried adding the C4 as a secondary start off weapon but it's not there
when i change weapon ingame,also i have treid placing the C4 in the map.
when i go ingame the C4 is on the floor with the numbers 99 and there is is not pick up icon.
i don't have this problem with any other weapon tags.
you mention boxes that say "must be picked up" and "dosen't count towards maximum"
checked.is this an option in guerilla or sapien that i havn't noticed

sorry but how do i find that out

perfect,thank you.yeah my animation tag wasn't set to the ncyborgs for the animations.

much appreciated

No problem. You get it to work? Nice.
