Config Error... Can't launch my game with this mod enabled anymore bro what did you do :( BulletCasing\UserConfigFile.hpp not found

i just tested it with the workshop version, and it works fine for me.
Do you have the "Bullet_Casings" folder inside the UserConfig folder?
the path should look something like this
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Arma 3\UserConfig\Bullet_Casings\UserConfigFile.hpp

Damn, I started using this couple of days ago, and gotta say, I didn't even know what I've been missing before.

Now I have found a bug, but it's nothing serious, just some casings seem to be coming out of the wrong guns, for example:

GM6 Lynx (.50 cal) seems to be dropping 5.56mm - same with Rahim, Zafir, and SPMG
SMG's I tested (vermin - .45 and scorpion and PDW2000 - 9mm) all seem to be dropping 5.56mm
Some of the 7.62x51 mm weapons seem to be dropping 7.62x39 (casing is really short) - Noticed this on Mk-I EMR, Mk14 and Mk18

Also, is there anything I can do to stop the mod writing text on start of the mission - write something in userconfig maybe?

Anyway, thanks for making the mod!

Casings not laying on ground? just falling through

@ FrOstbit3
do you have the proper userConfig folder in your arma 3 directory?

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Arma 3\UserConfig\Bullet_Casings\UserConfigFile.hpp

Also sometimes if your on a object or inside a building, casings might fall through and land on the terrain below the object, not being visible.

There is a error message:No entry 'bin/config.bin/CfgPatches/bullet_cases.units.'

it doesn't work for anyone except the player. it won't work for ai no matter what. i have the userconfig set correctly and i even tried 0 = [this, 6000, 1000] call HZ_fnc_BulletCases; in the init of units and im still the only one that drops shell casings.

good work otherwise though. when i use the mossberg in rhs it drops actual 12 gauge shells. i was surprised.

Small bug: when firing your weapon while standing in water, the casings lies on top of the water.

Mod is not doing anything at all for me, I can confirm the mod is loaded and the config option is available in the map screen, but firing produces no casings, I am using a gun from the marksmen dlc (mxm I think)

MXM and all MX series rifles are "caseless" rifles
So in the arma world they do not eject casings

Those are caseless? It doesnt say that on the ammo like it does for katiba, well that would explain the problem then :steamfacepalm:
