I have a private dedicated server with working source mod. I've also installed the TF2Items plugin.

My goal is simple. To remove the back scatter's clip size penalty. My "tf2items.weapons.txt" looks like this:

"backscatter"
{
	"STEAM_0:1:78124930"
    	{
		"1103"
 		{
			"quality"		"1"
			"level"			"100"
		 	
			"1"				"4 ; 1.00"
		}
	}
}

I think I formatted it correctly. Ive tried multiple things and nothing works. Can anyone familiar with this plugin help me out? I cant get it to work even after reading the examples over and over. Plus I cant find any help threads because this plugin is popular and it drowns out most help threads. Any help would be much appreciated.

I thought about answering your question on the TF2Maps forum, but thought it'd be better to answer over here.

This should probably be over on the TF2Items board, although a mod/admin may have already moved it before you see this.

Your file needs to look something like this:

"custom_weapons_v3"
{
	"*"
	{
		"1103"
		{
			"quality"		"1"
			"level"			"100"
			"preserve-attributes"	"1"

			"1"			"3 ; 0.00"
		}
	}
}

So, I'll explain why I wrote it this way.

First, the file must start with "custom_weapons_v3" to work with this plugin.

The "*" means you want it to apply to everyone, which is something you mentioned in the TF2Maps version of this thread.

You know the 1103 is the backscatter already.

"preserve-attributes" says to keep all the existing attributes...

...and then, rather than adding a clip size bonus, set the existing clip size penalty to 0.

You also need to make sure that the server is loading the tf2items_manager plugin in addition to the TF2Items extension.

Note: I haven't tested this.

Very useful. I fixed my weapons txt and I compiled the sp plugin. When I loaoded it though it made the back scatter have 0 ammo. So I fixed that stat, it was supposed to be : "4 ; 1.50"

Thanks for the help.
