blade12 12 Posted November 11, 2012 it has always annoyed me that all the good weapons with attachments are really rare so what if you could attach your own attachments. if you find something like duck tape and if you had things like a torch or a knife or possibly a lazer pointer, you could actually add them too your gun. than possibly there limited to certain types of objects and there temporary so there could even be a chance that if a zombie attacks you it gets ripped off and you need more duck tape. :o Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraggle (DayZ) 15720 Posted November 11, 2012 Duck tape lol. Sorry. Anyhoo, the standalone will have customisable weapons as well as some "home-made" ones. It can't be done on the mod because of the limitations of the engine being used. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aksuduud 64 Posted November 11, 2012 Actually it could be done, just delete the original weapon and spawn a new one with the attachment on it with a script, but these duct tape versions propably wouldnt be done as it would require the whole gun to be remodeled as BIS doesnt allow the editing of original models.

My fav sentence so far today. Edited November 11, 2012 by Fraggle 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cozen 2 Posted April 11, 2013 They'd prolly not do it now and doing it in SA since it's too much work. I like Arma III's customization, but I've seen a "gear screen" screenshot from SA and it looks like it's gonna be awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Gews- 7443 Posted April 11, 2013 No knife or laser pointer duct taped on... knife wouldn't work, laser pointer wouldn't work. Flashlight could work on a long gun. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CoolCain10 55 Posted April 11, 2013 I wouldn't mind some home-made attachments if the gear screen is anything like ARMA III it might work nicely Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Draco122 412 Posted April 11, 2013 Home-made attachments could be little things attached to your weapon, such as improvised camoflauge as a simple means or a scope cover to reduce scope glint in sunlight.I could see a flashlight strapped to a double barrel shotgun but not much else and it wouldn't last for long either, maybe a few shots at most Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
