also the original creator updated the mod, use whichever one you wish, both still work.
but just know i probably will never be updating this again

you CAN craft them, you can also find them in the wild, they copied their spawns from guns, so check military outposts, police, or gun stores

i need to craft this right

@humble most likely, i would lol. I only made my version as a super super simplistic fix
if Akyets mod works again i would 100% use that as he knows how to code and i know very little

The old mod was updated, should I use that instead of this?

@huflungpu
Yeah 'Better Belts' uses a depreciated & now-defunct hotbar API so that's 100% the cause of the compatibility weirdness. Not sure if the mod is still supported, cause i'd love to see it get updated to modern standards & compatibility.

Can't seem to get this to work with 2 weapons on the back w Brita

@huflungpu thank you! i will add that to the desc

@Bambi Did some testing, and it works as long as the Better Belts belt is equipped after your holster and sling. Equipping a sling after the borked hotbar slots causes any further hotbar slots to also break, whereas if you equip the sling first, making it hotbar slot 2, it works fine.

@huflungpu no idea, never used that mod. it might work, it at least works alongside "noir's attachments" which does also gives more hotbar slots, as long as you dont go over 10 slots it SHOULD be fine

Is this compatible with the better belts mod, which adds 2 extra hotbar slots? Better belts has the same issue as the original sling mod where the hotbar keys dont work, even though the items are equipped.

Great!

Last Tested: 41.71

@OMAIRI I hope so.

works 41.71?

can rifle sling be crafted? i cant find any recipe

deleted two files in the "timedactions" folder, "Sling_ISEquipWeaponAction.lua" and "Sling_ISDetachItemHotbar.lua"

for some reason it gets rid of the bug, i have no idea why it does.... but it do

Whats the small fix?

yes

Is this compatible with the B41 weapons mod?

the rifle slung across the back looks awesome, I don't think you should "fix it"

thats all good, ill add that to teh list of conflicts

ye, it was due to Noir's Attachment mod sorry

@_OnixFlame_ What version are you on? and are you sure you havent accidentally renabled the old mod?
because i cannot seem to replicate that issue on 41.71

it is bugging with hot slot now after uptade, problem the same like in original mod

@мишка фреди not that i know of :( i dont really know much about coding

Equipping a backpack and a sling with cause a visual bug where the rifle is slung on your back instead of the side backpack pocket
Any ways to fix this?

@maste find it in containers or on cops/military

How do you get it?

Actually that's beyond me. I thought it was simpler, but I was wrong.

seems like it should be pretty straight forward, in Sling mod fix\media\lua\client\Hotbar\Sling_ISHotbarAttachDefinition.lua it looks like the "attachment" section could be deciding what kind of items are allowed to be equipped, but i could be wrong

also note that Sling mod fix\media\lua\client\Timedactions used to contain 2 luas in it that had something to do with equipping the weapon, as i said i dont code so i didnt really understand, but found those 2 files were creating the bug from the original rifle sling mod that would deequip your weapon everytime you tried to attack
so i removed them, hence why they are missing
you can still get the files from arkyets original version in the description above

Ah ok, hmm. I might be able to do it in my files. I'll just load my changes after your mod loads.

@pervysage yes im sure it could be done but i am not the man do it lol, i dont code, didnt make this mod just reuploaded a fix

The sling can holster a shotgun or other large gun, do you think it could be modified to holster another large weapon like a bat or crowbar?

@rotcth unsub from arkyets version of the mod https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2644986930

Bruh it still bug with Belt gear weapon

Nevermind lol the sling weapon hotkey was the same one that spawned in a wild survivor. SImply switching the binding fixes it im a dumbass

does anyone elses sling somehow spawn in an npc at your location whenever you equip a weapon that is attached to it?

Is this compatible with the 'Firearms B41' mod? I've noticed that 'Firearms' spawns its own 2 Point Sling and I think it might be replacing the sling with this mod as I have yet to find one ever since using it.

I need to loot sling? Is how it works?

working fine in .68

Yea working in .68

41.68?

I will be sure to do that

@uogamer79 thank you so much for the kind words, but to be honest i didnt really do much lol, just uploaded this fix someone else found

I would check out Akyet's (the orignal creator) mods and give him some kind words too

yeah i just wanna say that this mod is awesome and thanks for making it work on later builds

@uogamer79 yes it does

so does this work with brita's gun pack? probably a dumb question but i wanna make sure.

@ja'Crispy if you have downloaded the mod its in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\108600\2684045242

Where can i get the code? id like to make this mod a little different
