Beta-Release of the new Magnum weapon for Carnivores 2 and Carnivores Ice Age. A .357 revolver with a greater deal of stopping power than the semi-automatic rifle and a faster firing rate than the shotgun, but the longest reload time of all current weapons.
Summary:
"Beta-Release of the new Magnum weapon for Carnivores 2 and Carnivores Ice Age. A .357 revolver with a greater deal of stopping power than the semi-automatic rifle and a faster firing rate than the shotgun, but the longest reload time of all current weapons."
To install, copy/move the "MAGNUM.CAR" file into the "HUNTDAT\WEAPONS\" directory of your Carnivores 2 or Carnivores: Ice Age installation. If there are other .CAR files such as PISTOL and SHOTGUN, then you are in the right place.
Next, open the _RES.txt in "HUNTDAT\" and add this to the weapons group:
{
name = 'Magnum'
file = 'magnum.car'
pic = 'bullet3.tga'
power = 8
prec = 0.95
loud = 1.4
rate = 0.9
shots = 6
}
Next scroll down to the prices group and add a new weapon value at the end of the list, roughly 55 credits should be fairly balanced enough.
Finally, go into the "HUNTDAT\MENU\TXT\" Folder and add a new text file "WEAPON7", copy the following into the file:
"Weapon : .357 MagnumThis weapon has excellent stopping power but ahigher recoil than the pistol and makes a lotmore noise too.Great for slower moving game.Veteran Hunters choice of weapon."
Then save it.
Finally, go into the PICS folder in the MENU folder, copy WEAPON1.TGA and rename it to WEAPON7.TGA
Now you should be ready and able to have some blasting fun with this beta weapon! Please enjoy and leave any feedback for improvements. I am currently finalizing the sounds effects and animations so please don't tell me that the animations aren't finished or up-to-par, this is only a public beta release to test it. Any other feedback such as balancing and anyone with experience with the .357 Magnums, please share your suggestions. Also note this is not a weapon/dino request.
