How to use // For anybody want to simply make a own mod
  1. Create your own magazine script file at \media\scripts\myScript.txt
    Example Script
    (Detail Description from wiki)[pzwiki.net]
    module MyMagMod { item 556ExtClip { DisplayName = 5.56NATO 35-Round Extended Magazine, DisplayCategory = Ammo, Type = Normal, Weight = 0.55, Icon = 556Clip_60, AmmoType = Base.556Bullets, CanStack = FALSE, GunType = Base.AssaultRifle, MaxAmmo = 35, StaticModel = GunMagazine, WorldStaticModel = gun_magazine_new, Tags = HasMetal;RifleMagazine, } item 308ClipDrumMag { DisplayName =.308 50-Round Drum Magazine, DisplayCategory = Ammo, Type = Normal, Weight = 0.55, Icon = 556Clip_60, AmmoType = Base.556Bullets, CanStack = FALSE, GunType = Base.AssaultRifle2, MaxAmmo = 50, StaticModel = GunMagazine, WorldStaticModel = gun_magazine_new, Tags = HasMetal;RifleMagazine, } }

  2. Create a .lua file at \media\lua\client\myMagMod.lua

  3. Set require = "MagAPI" at #1 line of your .lua file

    #1 require "MagazineAPI"

  4. Call API function to define your weapon and magazines.
    #1 require "MagazineAPI" #2 MagAPI.defineParam(Base.AssualtRifle, Base.556Clip, MyMagMod.556ExtClip) #3 MagAPI.defineParam(Base.AssualtRifle2, Base.308Clip, MyMagMod.308DrumMag)

Now it's all done. Although you have to set loot table if you want to loot new items from the fields, however you still can spawn your magazines via debug mode.
