Default >Weapons switching<

How can one turn Weapons switching off? When your holding a weapon and you run over another weapon pickup the weapon switches to the new one"If its higher on the priority list" I want the Weapons not to switch unless players decide to switch, is there a ini setting or a mod to do such? Can it be forced client side also?

In the players USER.INI, section [Engine.PlayerPawn],
change bNeverAutoSwitch=false to bNeverAutoSwitch=true.

Default RE: Weapons still switching.

I altered the Users.ini file as said here:
In the players USER.INI, section [Engine.PlayerController]
bNeverSwitchOnPickup=true

It did not seem to correct the problem online. Can I change this in the User.ini on the servers end.
Thanks for your time.

Multiple peeps have also tried editing their User.ini files and it did not work either.

Any ideas?

P.S. Couldnt find recommended portion of User.ini to edit as recommended via this thread

Default Weapons switching

I cannot find the recommended entry (listed below) in my user.ini to edit on the client end or server end.

[Engine.PlayerPawn],
change bNeverAutoSwitch=false to bNeverAutoSwitch=true

I have found the following.(server side)
[Engine.Pawn]
Bob=0.006
bWeaponBob=True

[Engine.Player]
ConfiguredInternetSpeed=9636
ConfiguredLanSpeed=20000

Can I add the suggested line to either of these. As there is no [Engine.PlayerPawn],section, rather a "player" section and a "Pawn" section.And I cannot find this section via client side.
Any ideas as this is effecting gameplay at multiple servers currently.

This is a setting in the options - weapon menu ffs. Why go telling people they need to edit any .inis

Anyway should be up to the individual to decide whether they want auto switch on not the server admin!

Start the game, press esc, go to weapons, and uncheck the box for autoswitch weapons. Close that, exit the game, then start the game again... Probably no more autoswitch weapons.

Default weapons switching.

I agree it should not be the admins decision. However, I have been flooded with requests to fix this problem. I am leaning towards a mutator conflict. I am guessing the Akimbo mut is the perp. Simply, unchecking the recommended selection in the game settings has no effect, and this is where the problem is at. Ive also reccomended editing the "switch to better weapons" option, but all to the same outcome....nothing. I am not familar with the "weapon menu ffs" but will surely look into it (I'm assuming this is located in the system files?). Netcades Mutator of death also has this issue I believe, and that server also uses AKIMBO. I'm reachin now, but any other ideas?

TY all for your time.
