I uploaded the changes for 15 - new Oasisstring with new ammo and weapon names - new weapon data, to address the new ammo types www.nexusmods.com/farcry4/download/69the idea behind 15 is that weapons should use the ammo they do in reality. So I changed the ammo types to 9mm / .38 .45ACP 5.56mm / .223 7.62mm / .308 12.7mm / .50cal I also changed the amount of ammo you can carry depending on the real weight of the rounds 200 rounds of 5.56 weigh the same as 200 rounds 9mm, 100 rounds of 7.62, 80 rounds of .45ACP, 50 12-gauge, or 20 rounds of .50cal, so I reduced the amount that can be carried accordingly. Each Loadout maxes around 3 kg, so with three weapons with different types of ammunition, Ajay will have nearly 10kg of ammo on his body, not to mention grenades, Molotovs, and of course zippered pockets with meat. I also adapted the prices (yes ammo is back, but extremly expensive) to real world costs. The relation between the price of a 9mm round and a .50 BMG is the same as in your local gun store. Since this is the Nightmare Mod all prices are x5. If you use a different pricelist you can adapt the prices to your liking.

Good Morning Bontainer: I loaded up the ark files and the oasis, but still have no way of either buying individual ammo types, nor of refilling ammo: I've gone through, and compared your oasis with my current version; compared off to an older none-modded version; have started a new game using JR's Banapur 1.10 file, but still - no "AMMO" at the top of the gun cabinet menu. It's been so long since I had the option to purchase ammo, I've forgotten which file that may be in, or what I might have missed when adding the arks and the oasis. I didn't try changing the "40000" back to "1" or "3", but in hindsight - I should, in case that will trigger the menu - but I don't think so. I fullu expected to see the "AMMO" word there, as per oasis. Hmmmph!
Ideas please!
Thanks,
pj

Oasis handles the text strings.
archetypes handle the gun data.
What you need PJ is the shop file with the rounds added back in. Make sure you have bontainers latest shop file .xml (caveat - I'm assuming bontainer did in fact update that file to include ammo back in the shop I haven't played ANY Far Cry the last month or so I may be making poor assumptions here...)

Thanks a million (x25) (Rupees - not dollars) for this, JR. The 15 mod only includes the ark and oasis files - and I thought that it would have been in the oasis - and had never thought of the shop file. I have it back working with your v18 and his oasis with some of my mods, so I'll revamp it again, using the info here. What fun! Memorizing which file does what is an issue once one gets past 40...
