Melee secondary weapons

[syfoor 5]

Hey guys,

Didn't see a thread about it, anyways, I'll raise this again. Why melee weapons in DayZ aren't put in secondary slot? I bet they would be really popular for clearing zombies, and I can't understand how this would break the game and I also bet this would take like a single line of code to be implemented. So why this isn't done?

that is because the hatchet is a reskinned main weapon.... So it cant be placed in secondary

So its impossible to reskin pistol, so it can be secondary weapon? Or change weaponclass or some other parameter, I don't know the arma 2 engine scripting, to secondary? I don't see a problem there.

I guess they gonna fix this for standalone. But i dont know the script and the mod is kind of broken and limited...

I dont know that either, I suppose it is impossible..... otherwise they would have done it I guess
