If you're here, chances are you're looking to create your own weapons for TF2 Classified. Whether for use against bots or other players, this guide should hopefully cover the majority of your questions regarding custom weapon creation. If it doesn't, ask people for help in the #modding-discussion channel in the official TF2C Discord.
Getting Started
To begin, create a file named custom_items_game.txt in the <SteamUserDir>\Team Fortress 2 Classified\tf2classified\custom\<Mod Name>\scripts directory. This is the file that will contain all of the information regarding your custom weapons. Please note that you cannot have multiple custom_items_game.txt files loaded simultaneously, so any other mod folders that contain them should be placed in tf2classified\custom\disabled to allow the new custom item schema to load.
Misc info to be added to the above sections
- It should be noted that custom weapons don't currently show up in the loadout on the main menu. To view them, you need to load into a map first.[note]
- It's a good idea to go over the basic parameters that most weapons should have. Failing to include these can either break the weapon in some way or completely prevent the whole pack from loading.
- Duplicate name parameters in a single weapon entry will prevent the custom item schema from loading.
