SMA - NIA Ammo Patch

Description
Adds support for NIA magazines, such as NIA STANAGS, EMAGS, PMAGS, HK STANAGS and Lancer transparent magazines in SMA 5.56 NATO firearms. The NIA magazines do not visually change in the SMA weapons for technical reasons, but functionality is just fine.
SMA mag support is kept for legacy reasons and to not cause backwards compatibility problems with units or missions using SMA ammo.

SMA 7.62 NATO weapons, such as the SCAR-H and HK417, can use their own SMA ammo or NIA FAL magazines, just for emergencies or inter-team magazine compatibility. This version supports ACE3, meaning you can use the HuntIR mini-drones as well as the ACE3 ammunition types but there is a non-ACE3 version available if you would rather use that.

Specific Requirements-
CBA_A3, NIA Core, NIA AR-15's, NIA FAL's, SMA Specialist Military Arms, ACE3.

In order to do that the models would need to be changed, which I can't do without source files and permission from the original SMA guys, who I contacted but many have quit modding, so didn't have everything needed for that still around.

Update-

I expanded the ACE3 support from just support for HUNT-IR mini drones from the weapons with grenade launchers to also include support for ACE3 5.56 and 7.62 magazine types, for those of you who would prefer to use ACE3 ammo.

This also makes the SMA/NIA weapons compatible with SPS weapon pack, as that uses ACE3 ammo as it's primary ammo type

Non-ACE version released, it's in the collection above.

I wouldn't mind thank you, it's just everytime I load a mission it will come up how ACE is missing and/or how it will prevent me from loading a save and then I have to restart a scenario.

Would you want a non-ACE version? I just did it so it could support ACE mags/ 40MM grenades if ACE is enabled, but without ACE on the mod still works just fine.

This appears to require ACE everytime I load

not as standard but as selectable on the arsenal

I figured out that it is a problem with cba. The problem for me is that these magazines are even showing up on the 7.62 and 6.8 weapons. I suppose that has something to do with cba's relatively new joint ammo function
