How would I change a gun from firing bullets to firing shotgun pellets? I've tried editing the weapon files and changing the weaponClass and such to match that of the trench gun but it didn't work and to be honest I didn't think it would, but it was my only idea. I'm assuming I would have to change this through some scripting, but I have no idea where to search exactly or what to do. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

You just change the weaponClass to spread. If it didn't work, it's probably because you didnt add the weapon file to your mod's IWD.

I tried that again and the gun loads up; I changed the name to make sure that it was this model, and it may be firing pellets but I can't really tell since only one shot is hitting the wall. If I change that to spread is it supposed to immediately fire multiple pellets or just a single one? Thanks for the swift reply by the way.

Try increasing the shotCount.

If that doesn't work, just take the Trench Gun weapon file, change the gunModel, worldModel, noteTracks, and weaponName to whatever you are trying to make.

I'm an idiot; this flew right over my head. The fix worked. Thank you for your help
