Battlefield 1942 Mods, Modding Tutorials & Forums

O.k. I am making a mod and I would like to make one team have head shots only. I found this code under damnage systems/colt
and I have been told the defGroups refer to the body sections (40=head, 41=body, 42=legs) and I would like to verify this and also what should I change to make the weapon only damage the head and not effect the rest of the body. thanks

taking for example the colt, you have to look at what material the colt-projectile is using and then change the damage properties accordingly

theres some things to think about tho, you cant change a materials damage per map basis by just pasting in that code you posted (it dont bite). if you want to change it it has to be done in the game.rfa file thus affecting all maps.

if you want it to work per map basis only you have to make up a new material with the wanted conditions and put it in the map (this will bite) and then change the colt-projectile (also per map basis) to that new material

if you want the headshot only to aply to all weapons in one team you could use the colt-projectile for more weapons to save some time and code lines

code red, it seems as if you already have the damage set up in the coding you provided.
