can u explain step 4 better? it sounds confusing :/

i dont know why but in episode 2 the ammo mags where the original amount (for exaple: shotgun has only 6 shots in his tube , the smg has 45 rounds in his mag and the pistol has 18 rounds in his mag) but the reserve ammo has the changed amount (for example i can hold 24 magnum rounds , 120 pulse ammo , 5 rockets and 15 crossbow rounds)

i dont even use mods, i love the game as is

tbh i just decided to edit these myself on the cfgs

For anybody who pulled their hair out tryna get this to work with MMOD like me you have to go to steamapps/workshop/conent/220/3366867453 copy those vpk files and paste them into the custom folder of whichever MMOD game you wanna run

this is god's gift to man no longer will i be forced to only have 3 magdumps worth of .357 and AR2 ammo at any given moment

it didn't work for me, sorry
I tried lots of folder combinarions and putting custom on every main folder but nothing...is still at 45

Edit these two:

cfg/skill.cfg
scripts/weapon_smg1.txt

and put them into a hl2/custom folder

how do you modify the smg1 capacity?
I edit the script file but after the 20th anniversary update, it is stuck at 45

I am in the coast chapters.

Yeah, I dont know if its the game fault or a mod (probably not a mod), but I feel like Im getting a lot of dumb pistol ammo for some reason, and when I mean a lot its a lot, not always, but it gets annoying.

No, this only affects the weapons themselves (I don't think I changed the crates :P)

And yes, the game will dynamically adjust the crates to give you what you need, usually following a HP -> Armor -> Low on certain weapon priority (from highest to lowest)

And HL2 is too generous with ammo anyway, unless you're playing a stingy mod like The Tr1p.

Just a quick question: Does this mess with the supply crate drop system? Because from what I know some of them during the game drops what you most need, so like, weapons that got their ammo reduced, will make more supply crates drop their ammo even if you cant pick it up?

Great mod by the way

Good mod but feels like i have way to much ammo now

and using multiscripts wouldn't work? (a question)

Bonus thing that I also mention

NOTE: You should do this after getting new mods, since it resets for some reason. Any mods qualify to break how it loads.

It doesn't work anyway,

See the part "Getting it to work"

Alternatively, you could use Crowbar to download this mod and place it in the addons folder for each game.

Please update this. It doesn't apply properly.

don't works

How to change the number of cartridges in the MP7 magazine? Tried changing the values ​​of clip_size, default_clip, did not help.

oh, it's alright, i just have to go from HL2 to EP1 and back so it's not that much of a chore.

Maybe. Alternatively, you could use Crowbar to download this mod and place it in the addons folder for each game.

could the weapon_manifest ease the process of having to go from HL2 to EP1/2 and back and loading a save?

ACKSTUALLY it's 12 gauge cartridges

GORDON LOADS 8 BULLETS INTO THE SHOTGUN LIKE THE OLD DAYS 🔥🔥🔥🔥

bro i'd rather change the config file than to only add 12 357. rounds and reduce the weak ass pistol's ammo to something even worse

у меня магазины (смг и дробовик) новые оружия не работает, ток боезапас

Very good rebalance mod. Totally recommend.

peak

Revolver

The Ar2 feels to OP with 120, you should reduce it to 90.

If that mod uses scripts, yes, there will be a conflict.

is there some conflict with this and this other mod??? https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3367599992&requirelogin=true

8/10

Brings some much needed ammo capacity changes, but the magazine changes do break if you subscribe to anything new from the workshop unless you start a new save.

Fun, but really ruins Balance of HL2

THAT BEING SAID, it is neat to have more ammo

Fun stuff, just, not the best, but pretty neat

Did the steps, works perfectly,
Thank you very much

It does work, just follow these steps.

Start Game, go to EP1 or EP2, load a save/start new game/load a map directly, check ammo counts, return to main menu, load HL2, load a previous save.

Not work for me.
Latest game version, enabled only this mod

I think the pistol needs to go back to default ammo capacity and extra ammo. cuz ngl, only 100 extra bullets sucks.

Just noticed right now that upon reloading a shotgun it goes back only to 6 shots as usually, not 8 as it intended with this mod.

Yeah, I can't do anything about that, since that's the way that the game loads the cfg file, with each alteration (like a new mod). But it does work.

the shotgun is correct now but damn, if had to do that everytime quite annoying ngl

the max capacity is in skill.cfg

i think you should make the grenade max capacity from 5 to 10

Start Game, go to EP1 or EP2, load a save/start new game/load a map directly, check ammo counts, return to main menu, load HL2, load a previous save.

shotgun one still 6/40 instead 8/40

I have added a few words there, to make it clearer. Sometimes you only need to just load any map from the console.

More investigation about this: Since every background is a map, technically all you need is to swap between games (aka go from HL2 to EP1 and then back), but this didn't work, a map or a saved game has to be loaded. No idea why this is the case.

Ah, when I read "load a map directly", I took that as just loading it from the menu - not the console. I tried the New Game method instead which worked fine. I'll assume loading from console would work too without issue

Did you start a new game? Or loading a map via the console?
