ConfigurableWeaponCarry

Description
What Is This?

A mod that restricts the carrying of weapons on the "back" slots (Shoulder and Melee) unless you have a sling or a backpack equipped. Everything can be tweaked in the configuration file, so you can include any weapons added by other mods, and also set the backpacks that are allowed to carry weapons.

By the default settings, improvised backpacks and courier bags can't be used to carry weapons. If you wish to change this, you will have to add the corresponding classnames to the Backpacks list.

You can now also set the backpacks that can only carry a single weapon.

It already supports many item packs, so make sure to check the list in the discussions.

Mods With Slings
Will fill accordingly as new mods come by

Settings

The settings will be found inside your server's profile folder under "ConfigurableWeaponCarry". If you want to take a look at them without downloading the mod, head over to the discussions.

{ "EnableDebug": 1, "AllowWithBackpack": 1, "UseBackpacksList": 1, "Weapons": [...], "Backpacks": [...], "UseBackpacksOneWeaponList": 1, "BackpacksOneWeaponOnly": [...] }

Options
  • EnableDebug. Whether to enable debug messages to the log (Unused for now)
  • AllowWithBackpack. Whether to allow backpacks to carry weapons.
  • UseBackpacksList. Whether to use the "Backpacks" list as the only backpacks that can carry weapons. If disabled, any backpack will be able to carry weapons.
  • Backpacks.The backpacks that can carry weapons.
  • Weapons. The weapons that are restricted and can only be carried with slings or backpacks.
  • UseBackpacksOneWeaponList. Whether to use the "BackpacksOneWeaponOnly".
  • BackpacksOneWeaponOnly. List of backpacks that can only carry one weapon.

Installation

Install as usual, copying the mod into the server folder and including the mod's folder name in the "-mod" parameter of your server start file. Dont forget to put the key inside the keys folder of the mod into the keys folder of your server.

"-mod=@YourOtherMods;@ConfigurableWeaponCarry;@YourOtherMods"

Compatibility and Issues

- Must synchronize configuration between client and server. Done!

Planned Features
  • Include settings to restrict the backpacks that can be used to carry weapons. Done!
  • Add own gun and melee slings, you can use Munghard's or Tactical Flava's awesome slings for now (or any other slings for that matter, as long as they arent in the "Weapons" list).
  • More in depth configuration ? (If requested)

Notes

This mod doesn't work when playing Dayz offline. There's an alternate version uploaded on google drive, the link can be found in the discussions.

Please bear in mind that I just started modding, so expect my mod(s) to be unpolished (and maybe even contain errors too). I will learn as I go, so report any problems in the comments section and I'll try to get them fixed as soon as I can.

Credits

This mod is inspired by Mr_Mitch_Rapp's ZH Immersive Weapon Carry, so a huge thanks to him!

Feel free to unpack, repack or do whatever you want with the mod, as long as you can credit its source.

Remember to always look at the change notes.

Hi, do you still plan on adding custom weapon slings? As of right now both tacticalflava and munghards are broken so it'd be great if someone could make both gun and melee slings.

Some issues with adding new backpacks to "UseBackpacksOneWeaponList". For some reason the mod doesn't take the newly added sling and canvas bags.

Hello sweetcaptn! Ive re-packed you mod into ALPHA+ server pack. After re-packing the mod doesnt work anymore. Any idea of what might have gone wrong or a fix for this?

Is there any way to place a filled backpack into cargo or hoarder slots, such as a vehicle or tent? If not, is it possible to mod it?
