FG42 & Sten De-nerfer (for Jaymod-2.2.0 server only)

BACKGROUND:  The weapons assigned to covert ops in ET are unrealistically nerfed. This tiny file fixes that oversight, in jaymod-2.2.0. There is no reason for the Sten to begin overheating and become useless after a few rounds, or to have much less damage (Sten damage = 14) than the MP40 (damage = 18). Both weapons fired the same caliber of ammo in WW2. The FG42 shot the Mauser 8MM cartridge, used by both the German Kar98 and the legendary German MG42.  There is no reason for the FG42 to have such low damage relative to these other rifles, firing the same cartridge. Also there is no good reason other than making the rifle less useful for it to have such low total ammo capacity (total, not the 20-shot clip) that it runs out too fast in actual combat. 

 

CHANGES:  This "qagame" file contains several binary edits that have removed the Sten heating completely, and increase the Sten damage to 18 (same as the MP40).  It also increases the FG42 damage from 15 to 18 (same as MP40 & Thompson), and increases the total ammo capacity to 120.   These are precise, targeted changes to the Sten and FG42 only.   No changes are made to rate of fire.  No changes are made to clip size (the number of rounds that fit in the magazine).   

 

NOTE:  This qagame file was made from the default Jaymod-2.2.0 qagame file, with binary location targeting done using the jaymod source code (available on github). Edits were made using HxD.  No other edits or graphics or hidden code is inside.

 

PROCEDURE:  Download the "qagame_mp_x86.dll"  file and put it in your jaymod folder on your server. There is no code to write or configs to mess with.  You will be replacing the default version of the qagame file, so you may want to make a copy somewhere in case you want to go back.
