How do you get rid a a permanent muzzle flash?

[cjb1]

Having deownloaded the Royal marine addon, all the units in the group have a permanent muzzle flash.

Is it something I'm not doing? How can I get rid of it!

you need to add a proper cfgmodels section to the cpp.

This is slightly altered but its from Brsseb's tutorials. CfgModels needed adding after 1.75 IIRC

Basically it must be an old addon. You need to break it open from its pbo state using a tools and alter the config.cpp file youll find by adding the cfgModels section like below then recombine them all back into a .pbo.

Code: [Select]

class CfgPatches
{
   class BRSSEB_Stalker
   {
      units[]={StalkerHunter};
      weapons[]={SCJmos};
      requiredVersion=1.00000;
   };
};

class CfgModels
{
   class Default{};
 Â Â Â class Weapon: Default{};
 Â Â Â class SCJmos : Weapon{};

};

CfgAmmo
{
etc
etc

Note SCJmos is the name of my model .p3d

Thanks for the promt reply, but I have managed to figure out how to remove most muzzle flashes and at the same time tweak the addon's specs, ROF, Mag capacity, Hit pwr etc.  So far I have managed to fix "Mp_Field, Mp_Thomson, mpm1, and scs90".  But for some reason the "scs90scoped" and the "FAMAS" does not want to be fixed, this is not the end of the world.  What I would like to know is how do I look at and edit pic.paa files. You know the pictures in the gear and overview.  I have tried to replace them with jpg files but this did not work.  I will apreciate any assitance.

 There's a program called Texview that you can use to look at .paa and .pac files and then save them as .tga to be edited in a paint/photo program

royal marines are being redone by PUKF... these were just a very early beta... just wait for their new infantry pack to be released and then you'll be happy...

the RM's were pre resistance, so contained this annoying muzzle flash issue... they were never upgraded as they are being redone
