Drop Weapon Button Input 1. 0. 1
by Three-Socks
For MGSV version 1. 0. 7. 0 (1. 07 in title screen)
A very basic mod to drop your weapons while in game. Also a proof of concept on how to install a lua file using only a windows batch file. It should be compatible with future game updates too as long as 00.dat stays the same location for lua lib files.
This mod is designed for controller in mind but works for keyboard as well.
Controls
ControllerIn the weapon equip menu (Dpad Up or Down) highlight the weapon using the right stick and hold RS/R3 to drop.
Equip the weapon you want to drop first. Then use the arrow keys, Up for primary (hip) and Down for Secondary weapon and hold switch zoom (default V) to drop.
