Fallout New Vegas Ammunition
I suspect that replacing the silly 'ammo switch' function of hotkey 2 will take some kinda heavy script editing, and that we may have to wait for the New Vegas Script Extender to be released, but here's hoping someone figures out a quick and dirty workaround in the meantime.Nop. It seems hotkey 2 mapping is missing within the game engine as there is no Hotkey2 variable to begin with.

Anyone know what the key is? I'm having trouble finding it in the controls too. Showing 1-6 of 6 comments DiscreetPigeon. Sep 23, 2015 @ 8:15am. Unable to change ammo types. The only way I have found to get around this is to drop all ammo except for the type you want to use, change weapons, change back and then reload. So to change to AP rounds with the sniper rifle I first need to drop all standard rounds, all hollow point rounds, and all JSP rounds, change to a different weapon. Fallout: New Vegas Cheat: Kill Without Gaining Infamy You need an anti-material rifle with incendiary ammo for this cheat. Equip your rifle and change the ammo type to incendiary. Use VATS on a target and quit the VATS after targeting. Now the target is on fire without you gaining infamy or agroing anyone.
So it takes game developers to fix it by changing the game sourcecode or crackers to add it to binary although the last will be illegal.The quick and dirty workaround is to change Ammo Switch hotkey to something else and set 5-th to 8-th hotkey to keyboard button '2' by editing Controls section of FalloutPrefs.ini. Then setting preferred '2-weapon' to chosen ( 5-th to 8-th ) hotkey ingame.Examle remapping of Ammo Switch to 'backspace' key and 8-th hotkey to '2' key: Hotkey1=0002FFFFHotkey8=0003FFFFHotkey3=0004FFFFHotkey4=0005FFFFHotkey5=0006FFFFHotkey6=0007FFFFHotkey7=0008FFFFAmmo Swap=000E0201.
