Dual Arms

This is mod that allows use of two primary weapons, one in your main slot one in your launcher slot.

You can download the mod from here: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1334412770

Now on A3Launcher! Thanks Maca!

There are some important overrides that need to be made to make this work with Exile, out of the box it has iffy results and sometimes the eventhandlers would overwrite each other I will provide instructions how to combine my eventHandlers with Exiles. Once the overrides work, then this will work great, just like it would in singleplayer.

 

Current bug: See the second weapon in the trader with an error image. Will take a look tomorrow solving this so you will not be able to see them in the trader.

Current feature: will stand up if you swap weapons while crouching/prone. This acts like exiles autorun.

 

 

Installation 

Client:

Step 1:

Paste the following into your description.ext - its very important because you need to override my hook file to disable the eventhandlers!! Otherwise it will break. 

#include "custom\dual_arms\CfgSecondaryWeapons.hpp"

Inside CfgSecondaryWeapons you can turn addactions on and off, drop weapons on death on and off, block weapons as well as override any of my script files.

In mission.sqm please add "secondary_weapons" to addons to require players to have the mod, plus the server needs it as well. Like this: 

addOns[]=
	{
		"exile_client",
		"secondary_weapons",
		"a3_map_altis"
	};

You will need to launch the @DualArms mod with your server.

 

Step 2:

The following overrides need to be made

ExileClient_gui_hud_event_onKeyUp

On line 170 (original files)

The code needs to be modified to: 

			//Dual Arms Start
				private _dialog = uiNameSpace getVariable ["RscDisplayInventory", displayNull];

				if (secondaryWeapon player != "") then
				{
					if (((secondaryWeapon player) splitString "_") select ((count ((secondaryWeapon player) splitString "_"))-1) == "secondary") then 
					{
						if(!(SecondaryWeaponsSwapping) && (_dialog isEqualTo displayNull)) then
						{
							(primaryWeapon player) spawn SecondaryWeapons_events_swapSecondaryWeapon;
						};
					} else {
						if (secondaryWeapon player != currentWeapon player) then
						{
							player selectWeapon (secondaryWeapon player);
						};
					};
				} else {
					if (primaryWeapon player != "") then 
					{
						if(!(SecondaryWeaponsSwapping) && (_dialog isEqualTo displayNull)) then
						{
							(primaryWeapon player) spawn SecondaryWeapons_events_addSecondaryWeapon;
						};
					};
				};
				//Dual Arms End

ExileClient_object_player_event_onInventoryClosed

after like 16: 

//Dual Arms
call SecondaryWeapons_events_onInventoryClosed;

ExileClient_object_player_event_onInventoryOpened

Most important override!!

Spoiler

Replace with a new line of private variables: 


private ["_cancelEvent", "_container", "_secondaryContainer", "_throw", "_dialog", "_BG", "_slot", "_prim", "_posSlot", "_posBtn", "_buttonDown", "_buttonUp", "_cover", "_pic", "_icoB", "_ico", "_SecondaryWeaponItems"];

Then after the last throw for the old chest and before ExileClientInventoryOpened = true; 

paste

  


//*************Dual Arms Start
	if (SecondaryWeaponsSwapping) then 
	{
		throw true;
	};

	} 
	else

	};
	
	//*************Dual Arms End

 

ExileClient_object_player_event_onKilled

After line 41 - not inside the brackets add: 

//Dual Arms
_this call SecondaryWeapons_events_onKilled;

ExileClient_object_player_event_onTake

After line 15 and before the if statement I added: 

//Dual Arms
_this call SecondaryWeapons_events_onTake;

Server:

Step 1:

Handling a disconnecting player, for Exile you will need to modify/make an override for ExileServer_system_network_event_onHandleDisconnect.sqf

You will need the following bit of code to save the users pointer attachment (IR Laser/Flashlight etc and UGL Ammo (HE Rounds etc)) 

//Dual Arms Start

		_SWInfo = _unit getVariable ["SecondaryWeaponsWeaponInfo", []];
				
		if(count _SWInfo > 0) then
		{
			_uniform = uniformContainer _unit;
			_vest = vestContainer _unit;
			_backpack = backpackContainer _unit;
			_containers = [_uniform, _vest, _backpack];
			{
				_item = _x;
				_className = "";
				_array = false;
				_added = false;
				if(typeName _item isEqualTo "ARRAY") then
				{
					_array = true;
					_className = _x select 0;
				} else {
					_className = _x;
				};
				
				{
					if (!(isNull _x)) then 
					{
						if (_x canAdd [_className, 1]) exitWith 
						{
							if(_array) then
							{
								_unit addMagazine [_className, _item select 1];
							} else {
								_className = [_className, 0, -10] call BIS_fnc_trimString;
								_unit addItem _className;
							};
							_added = true;
						};
					};
					if (_added) exitWith {};
				} forEach _containers;
			} forEach _SWInfo;
		};	
		//Dual Arms End

Accidentally used like age-old ExileClient_gui_hud_event_onKeyUp.sqf - the current one is now properly on fix if you grabbed files early or didn't patch my edits in with yours the correct file is now in use :)

Nice addon,:rock:

How about a weight limit? Max mass 200? Maybe it's a bit overpowered to wear 2 heavy Mg's:D

Would be easy enough, all my files are overrideable! ;) 

 

Updated original post to fix a dupe method with the keybind.. if you already grabbed files please make the proper fixes found in the github or original post!

Looks like someone was inspired by Tapkob .. nice mod! Kudos! Now lets wait till its in main branch since client sided modification is needed, which you cant ask of any admins of hi-pop to tell their children
