@CamxxCore Hate to be that guy again, but I get an automatic crash whenever taking cover with the new build. Reloading works, though!

I was looking for something like this, good job bro!

I have the same issue when using cover with the newest version, game locks up immediately and then crashes. No issues with the previous version of the mod.

@jtgibson @Sir Joseph Dirt Seems that some pointers were being invalidated when the player takes cover and the mod could not continue working because of this. Adding some extra null pointer checks seems to have solved it entirely.

DUDE I love what you did! I hate so much auto reload in games. This silly casual handicap is annoying. Great that you disabled it for this game! Thanx!

Well I confirm that some weapons reload in inventory :( In my case basic pistol (beretta) and bulpup weapon. But manual reload works fine as for now.

@Cosm1c Gam3r It’s not perfect, that I am aware of. But without reversing the engine in its entirety, this is probably as close as we will get to having this functionality. It was a pain in the butt to get this working at all.

Maybe there is way to make weapon ammo count remembered in inventory. I had similar mod/script for GTA4 and it worked there. No inventory reload. Maybe you can try and get that for GTA4 and investigate how it was made. I will test today new mod for cars. It makes cars persistent and not disappear after using it. It uses special folder to save vehicles. Maybe similar thing can be done for weapons?

How Could I put this mod in a FiveM server ??

@Cosm1c Gam3r There is a way, and this mod enables the functionality internally. But it seems rockstar did not think this system out or develop it very well, because certain weapons are still unaffected no matter what you change.

@Pavesi Not currently possible and probably won’t be. Considering ammo is likely server sided.

Maybe better usage of scripting.
Did you tried or considered making shotgun reload realistic? It is very dumb how those idiots did shotguns. 1 shell reloads fully. Even 14 shells! This is so dumb! GTA have the dumbest gameplay designer in terms of gunplay in whole game industry. It is huge shame.

@Cosm1c Gam3r I can agree with that. I already did a little bit of research around that but could probably visit it again with a fresh set of ideas. Obviously the logic behind it is hidden somewhere =D

I wish I could help or rather If I would have skills in terms of programing/scripting I would make such mod for realistic reload even with 1 bullet in chamber.
But all I can do is to support someone who was brave enough to go into such scripting.
Have you used similar mod for GTA4? I remember it was almost perfect and all guns clip was somehow saved so when you equipped other weapon and go back to previous one then it was exactly ammount that I put it away with. As for shotgun reload maybe by scripting it is possible to make reload to fill only 1 bullet instead of full shotgun capacity. This way it would be the easiest way to make it realistic! :) It would be tedious for some ppl (like lazy casuals) to press reload for every shell but it would work and could be as optional thing in your mod! :) I think it is most doable. Or if there would be possibility to make reload fill only 1 bullet and add for each shotgun loaded manually to repeat animation 8 Times for shorgun with 8 shells capacity and 14 for the other one with 14 shell capacity. But it would need to check if it needs to repeat 8 Times for full mag or less if there is already some shells left. I think this can be more tricky to make. IMO 1 reload animation = 1 shell would be the easiest way of making this ridiculous weapon gameplay more believable for gun nuts :) Casuals dont bother with such mods anyway so it can be as tedious as it needs to be! :D
I personally would be happy even with the one that I could reload 1 shell at time. For me it would not be tedious but instead most realistic shotgun reload :D But obviously we need some 100% working pocket save because swaping weapon would be still exploit that would allow to skip this manual reload :/

Just dropping back in... it's flawless now!

@Cosm1c Gam3r I never got a chance to try that one. I'm guessing it might have been easier to accomplish back then because some things weren't hard-coded in as they are now. You could probably just disable the animations and count the ammo manually. I'd really like to fix this bug but I need to know a bit more about why it happens. Then I at least have something to go off. In my testing so far, it seems almost completely random when it happens. Figuring out when and why it happens will help me to find the code that is causing it.

I really like the mod, but I dislike the sound. It does not sound like an empty weapon in my opinion. I think the Taser sound while it's reloading resamples more of what I think would be appropriate for a reloading sound. A function for replacing the reload sound would be great!

@Fledron Thanks for your feedback :D Are you talking about the "dry- fire" sound that plays when firing an empty weapon? I'll see if its worth changing.

does the fact that this is a .asi plugin and not a .dll plugin mean that it has to be placed in the game directory and not the script folder? I don't know much about mods but it isn't working in my game with it in the script folder so I think it might work if it's in the directory

@CamxxCore Yeah it's the dry-firem sound. You don't have to change it since nobody else has a problem with it, but maybe allowing people to change the sound would be really cool!
