Title: Pintle-Mounted Gun for Humvee
Post by: AndyFox on July 21, 2022, 04:28:23 am
Please tell, where to get weapons for the Humvee (https://xcf.trigramreactor.net/master/article/STR_HUMMER)?
Game version 2.2.

Both the Humvee and AH-6 Little Bird use agent weapons not craft weapons. The machine guns, miniguns and rocket launchers can be attached.

For a full list of the things that can be attached to the HUMVEE are: PKM, M-60, MG-3, FN Minimi, Stoner LMG, BlackOps Assault LMG, BlackOps  LMG, Heavy Machine Gun, BlackOps Light Minigun, BlackOps Minigun, Scatter Turbolaser, M.A.G.M.A. Pulse LMG, RPG Rocket Launcher, UAC Rocket Launcher, Rocket Launcher, Advanced Rocket Launcher, Recoiless Gun

Realistically though I wouldn't recommend arming the Humvee or AH-6 Little Bird as you don't need to intercept anything until you have actual interceptors. The only thing the humvee could be used for would be to take down manor defenders but by the time you have manors your landing craft should be able to bypass them anyway due to their speed, and failing that just bait them to leave the manor then return to it undefended.

I have a complete collection of this weapon, but there is no mounting option.

I don't think handheld weapons being mountable on vehicles was a thing until 2.3. You said you were running 2.2?

Yes, 2.2, and afraid to upgrade to 2.5 for fear of saves incompatibility.

Well, I don't think you'll have a lot of issues with technical compatibility. The save will load and more or less still work.

You will probably run into some unexpected situations, like when I tried to upgrade from 2.1 or so, and got spammed with all the 'woe is us!' cult messages at once.
