Accordingly, you can change very many aspects of the game yourself, for example, the appearance of characters, car models, and even weapons. Naturally, for this there must be an agreement from the administration of the server on which you play, but almost everywhere there is the possibility of changing skins, which makes this project still incredibly relevant.
Accordingly, you definitely need to learn how to replace weapons in SAMP, as this will help make spending time in the game much more fun. This article will help you figure out how to do this. The fact is that replacing weapons in SAMP can be a very time-consuming process if you do not know the short cut. It is about him that will be discussed in this article.
Automatic installation
If you want to replace weapons in SAMP, then you will need models downloaded from the Internet to insert them instead of the original models in the game data. And if you do it manually, you will need a lot of time to replace all the necessary files. In addition, there will always be a chance that something will go wrong and the game will no longer start or will fail. It is recommended to look for modifications that can replace weapons in the "SAMP" with automatic installation. This is a much more convenient and efficient process, which is carried out practically without your participation, and most importantly - incredibly fast.
Finding the right mod
So, you have decided to replace weapons in SAMP and want to do it automatically, that is, quickly and safely. This means that you will need to look for mods with the appropriate mark. There are a lot of them on the network, so you should not have problems with the search. In addition, you can focus not only on the text of the description, but also on the extension of the file that you are downloading. The fact is that mods with automatic installation are always delivered in exe format, that is, in the form of a file that functions by itself.
Having determined that this is a file with automatic installation, you should choose the models of weapons that interest you and download them to your computer. It is after this that you can crank out the replacement of weapon skins in SAMP. How exactly? Next, you will learn everything you need to ensure that this operation is completed successfully by you.
How automatic installation works
Well, the time has come for the most important moment. Namely - directly the replacement of weapons models in the "SAMP". When you download the mod you need containing the appropriate weapon model, you will need to run it with a double click, that is, as a regular file.
A corresponding window will open, in which there will be a lot of diverse information both about the creator of the installer and about other details. You are not interested in all this information, because you need to focus on that part of the screen where the weapon skin that you want to add to the game is located. There will also be indicated that model of weapons that will be removed from the game to give room for a new "gun." You can choose another option, if available, or accept what the installer has suggested.
Installation Address
The last thing you will need to do is to indicate exactly where you need to install this mod. Naturally, this should be the game folder itself, so check initially where the game files are stored on your computer.
If you do not like the prospect of setting the path to the game each time, when you are going to add a new type of weapon, then you can be glad, as the installer is “smart”. This means that it remembers where it is necessary to send modifications, so the next mod with automatic installation, which you download and run on your computer, will automatically determine the desired folder.
As a matter of fact, that’s all, all you have to do is confirm the replacement and wait for the automatic installer to make all the necessary file replacements. After that, you can enter the game and enjoy the new weapon skins that you have chosen for yourself on the network. You can do the same with other textures, such as cars or characters.
