Lists of Weapons

GTA3

Unlike in Vice City and San Andreas, where each weapon has a separate mesh and texture, GTA3's weapons are stored in two DFF and TXD files, namely weapons.dff and generic.txd; only the selected object from the model hierarchy, e.g. pistol or Uzi is visible when the player chooses a weapon. Most of the information on the weapons are located in the weapon.dat file.
