Changing The Staring Weapon?

[Enderkevin13]

How Do I Change The Starter Weapon? I Wanna Use A Different Pistol Rather Than The Default One.

I Tried This, But It Didn't Work:

defaultmap
{
fallingdamage
sky1 = SKY1 0.0
}

map MAP01 "Untimely Demise"
{
next = EndGameC
music = D_RUNNIN
}

gameinfo
{
playerclasses = "Player"
}

Anyone Know Why It Won't Work?

And how does the DECORATE definition of your player class look like? Or the weapon definition itself? This is just MAPINFO.

Anyway:

Here's The DECORATE:

actor PistolPlayer : DoomPlayer
{
Player.StartItem "AngledPistol"
Player.StartItem "Fist"
Player.StartItem "Clip", 50
}

Should I Rename "PistolPlayer" To "PLayer" Just?

[scifista42]

Just rename "Player" to "PistolPlayer" in MAPINFO in your original post. The word "Player" in your DECORATE is just a keyword prefix of player-related properties. You shouldn't use keywords as custom class names.

I Tried Many Different Things That Were Supposed To Work, NONE Of Them Did.
Seriously, I Did All Of Your Steps And NONE Worked.

[scifista42]

I told you only 1 step: Rename "Player" to "PistolPlayer" in MAPINFO in your original post. You shouldn't have modified your DECORATE.

If it doesn't work anyway, try methods from the wiki pages I linked.

It Said "RENAME THIS" Next To "AngledPistol : Weapon".
Should I Rename AngledPistol Or Weapon?

[scifista42]

I saw the "//Rename this!!!" comment, but I don't see why you should rename any of them. So, rename none.
