weapon damage

[cat]

where can I find a list of the damage each weapon does.

[Teek]

PM Jonny, or Nedlands, they muck about in weapon data files alot.

[zangoo]

ok so go to

C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\pr\objects\objects_server_patch.zip

then i there you go to weapons\handheld

you then find the weapon you want to find the damage for.

open the folder, then find the tweak file, open it with notepad.

now look for the line

ObjectTemplate.projectileTemplate

it should say something like

ObjectTemplate.projectileTemplate 762_51

so that means it uses a 7.62x51 round

so take note of that.

now go to

C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2\mods\pr\objects\objects_server.zip

then go to

weapons\common\projectiles

now find the bullet you need

so say it is the 7.62x51

you would open that tweak file.

then it would say something like this

ObjectTemplate.create GenericProjectile 762_51
ObjectTemplate.material 3762
ObjectTemplate.damage 50
ObjectTemplate.minDamage 0.4
ObjectTemplate.DistToStartLoseDamage 400
ObjectTemplate.DistToMinDamage 1000
ObjectTemplate.gravityModifier 0.3
include projectiles_common.tweak

hope i helped.

Why is the MP7 less powerful than the MP5? Oo

[Deadfast]

Because of the caliber

Why is the MP7 less powerful than the MP5? Oo

According to an article published by the F.B.I entitled, Handgun Wounding Factors and Effectiveness, "given desirable and reliable penetration, the only way to increase bullet effectiveness is to increase the severity of the wound by increasing the size of the hole made by the bullet...Of those that will penetrate, the edge is always with the bigger bullet." Based upon this, the MP5 should be more effective against unarmoured opponents than the MP7 because the MP5 fires a significantly larger round. Having said that there is word that the 4.6mm round, the MP7 fires, tumbles, which would increase the size of the hole and consequently increase the "severity of the wound." In the case of armoured opponents, the MP7 should win out since the MP5 will have serious trouble penetrating the body armour.

The latter shown with some tests:

Yes, thats what i meant. Lower base damage but higher modifier on armour would be fair i think.
