MG3 to MG42 Conversion[message #361080]

I thought I would convert the in-game MG3 to the MG42. So I edited the items XML and the Weapons XML to rename it and use 7.92x57. I set it to 250 round belt (or a 50 round saddle mag would also be nice).Great the only defined magazines are the 5 round clip, 50 round box (the box you buy from BRs)and ??000 round crate. I can load up with 5 round clips tobut the game thinks the gun has a crate attached (14kgs worth with only 100 rounds. The crate can be ejected but if you try to reinsert it there is an assertion error. I think what I need to do is define a new magazine for the gun with a "belt" image for HP and AP/FMJ. That is where I am stuck. I don't know how the gun links to the particular magazine and I'm not sure if I insert lines into the XML that it won't just bugger up item numbers for all the subsequent magazines. And for a later trick I would like to add the old style rifle grenade launcher to an FG42 but hay - baby steps!.
