Altering the accuracy of guns.

[jondy]

Has anyone put together, or is working on, a mod to alter the accuracy of the in-game weapons? It'd be really cool to have a more accurate SMG or pulse so you could go for burst-firing and headshots at range without wasting bullets by spraying away

I figure this would take some coding. Sorry if this has been asked before, I ran a search but it turned nothing up.

It'd be really easy to do yourself...

That's the great part about coding - if something doesn't exist, you can make it yourself.

Seriously - with zero knowledge of coding or how games work, I'd be scraping the bottom of the barrel even trying

Unfortunately you need coding knowledge to change that :\

Check around the web though, and SrcDocs cause there might be something

Here's something that I doubt will help you, but I'm throwing it out anyways

In HL1, it was to do with 'firecone' or something, in the weapon's c++ file. There were a number of preset cones you could use, with deviance from 1 degree to about 20.

I've not really looked at it in HL2 yet, though.

It's still the same thing.

IcedEagle - great article. Shame I can't find weapons_pistol.ccp, or I'd be sorted . AL & Ben, yea, its firecone thing you change.
