Expanded SMA Magazines and CBA Compat

In 1 collection by Clasless

Description
Adds Drum mags and Belts for SMA 5.56 ammo. Adds SMA magazines into CBA magwells. Adds CBA magwells into SMA weapons.
This mod does 3 things:
1. Adds SMA 5.56 ammo into base game drum magazines and boxes.
2. Adds SMA magazines into their corresponding CBA magwells. This lets most other weapons use SMA ammo as long as it has the relevant CBA magwell.
3. Adds CBA magwell support into SMA weapons, allowing them to use other magazines.

Update: Added alternate versions of the 200rnd 5.56 SMA ammo boxes that uses RHS reload animations. This is used for reloading them properly into RHS M249s. RHS is only required to have the reload animation for these specific boxes but it is not required for using the mod in general.

*Let me know if I missed anything.

I would guess maybe SMA was developed before CBA magwells became standard, so they all display the same magazines?

Another and useless mod that will not display a correctly loaded magazine in an SMA weapon. Hard understand why the only SMA Mod is bewitched mod and why all other basic mods - NIArms, RHS, CUP are will not have this problem. There are dozens of SMA compatibility mods, but not one mod will display the real 3D model of the magazine that is currently used in the SMA weapon, as it works in other mods. It's a pity...

Works perfectly. It's a good compat.

I think the error has to do with RHS/CUP using their own reload animations for their 200rnd boxes. This is evident by how BI/Niarms/SMA 200rnd boxes uses the wrong reloads for RHS/CUP M249s. I can try to add alternate versions of the 200rnd boxes that use RHS/CUP's reload animations.

I forgot to put this as well:

All variants of M249 (5.56) from CUP and RHS are affected by the "missing model error" when using the 200 round box (all variants) from SMA. Not only that, when reloading the SMA boxes (when the SMA boxes are next in the reload queue), the M249 initiates the reloading animation of inserting a magazine to the mag adapter of the weapon instead of the normal Box reloading animation.

HLC (NiArms) weapons doesn't display the SMA ammo (both box and mag) with CBA Magwell

Woops. When I was getting the pictures for it, the model error only applied to the HLC (NiArms) ammo to CUP/RHS.

The problem is actually the Ammobox model does not show BUT reloads like you are inserting a mag to a M249.

Which guns are you having this reload issue with? The 200rnd boxes like "MK262 Mod 1 SBLR 5.56 200rnd Mag" should only be available for belt fed 5.56 machine guns. I've tested them on the LIM-85 and NIA Arms' M249s, and those use the regular box reload animation and model.

The 200 round 5.56 linked belts has the model and reloading animation of 5.56 magazines. This applies to all 200 round 5.56 linked belts.

The mod already adds SMA’s 5.56 ammo into 200rnd linked belts for machine guns. SMA’s 7.62 linked belts should be availble for most 7.62 machine guns.
