OK sure, It's possible to some extent. I just found a way how to add it and it works in multi.

*If you don't understand this, and don't have any knowledge about modifying weapons then don't try it*

go to Game.tbl and change:
$Default Player Weapon:                         "Capek Cane"

Then go into Weapons.tbl and change the weapon to what ever 1st person 3rd person models.

after you need go to fpgun.tbl make your own for the weapon.
and then
go to PC_multi.tbl
add +Custom Fpgun:     "Capek Cane"               "YOUR CUSTOM FPGUN"

Worked for me 100% works in MP and SP.. The only problem is you cannot select the extra weapon after you've changed weapon I'm sure that client side maybe PF could look into it. But i hope somebody finds this useful.

It's not hard to figure out how to change the starting weapon in game.tbl. lol I used to add lazors and stuff to my RF server back in the days just for fun and change geo.

Basicly i'm saying you can add the first and third Person models to the none usable ones. stick it in the game and you'll a error saying theres a extra weapon or it will crash in multiplayer. FPgun will cause you some trouble but I found out how to fix it.. go ahead and try it. it will not work. it will say you have to many weapons or something.

Do the thing i said in PC_Multi.tbl, Then in FPgun you need a custom name but with the same skins. If that makes sense. I'll try explain better if you need any help.

Edit: If it must be said I'm not saying I'm the first to find it out. I am not the kinda person to give a CENSORED about if I was the first.

Now i can say I got it to work fully and 100% useable. Ask one of the REDMOD testers if you want a second opinion. If this has been done before then THANKS for the bloody guide!!!!!
I think I can add more weapons than just 1 not sure yet.

16 weapons


15 weapons

This isn't anything new. It's already been established that you can add and use completely custom weapons. There is a cap on how many, though, which I believe is 32. I could be wrong on that.

I some how doubt that. ahh well again thank-you for the non existing tutorial people!!! In 9 Years I never heard anything about it! Most people said it can't be done. And i can't even find a Released MOD with it


Would you know how to add them in selectable and placeable in RED?

Another question if you don't mind. Handgun Item cannot be picked up by clients in Multi-player is there a way to fix this from the MOD side?

Add a new entry in items.tbl with the weapon name changed to your custom weapon's name. Do the same with ammo.

There is a cap of 32, but it wont let you add more than 16 for the player weapons I believe.

If you can, that will be something new I believe. I made a flare gun once that placed flares on the wall and lit the surrounding area. Was quiet cool. Especially as after about 10-15seconds, the flare died, and then dropped to the floor and exploded if I remember correctly.

Was great, stick some flares to the roof, run and wait for them to fall down on unsuspecting players!
Trying to find old players. Anyone about? Drop me a PM or reply to this thread:

Don't be such an CENSORED Assman! .
Give him a break, he has just came back into RF mapping and modding!
He has been away for like decades and he is not up to speed with everything yet.

It's like sitting Austin Powers infront of a TV to watch DVDs of the things he missed as he was frozen!
