If we switched gun files around say like the, M16A3 with the G36E files then repack them wouldn't that change your default weapon? Just a theory I had.
It will not work. It will look and behave the way you make it, but the server still knows what gun you have so the stats will be unchanged.

what would be really funny is if you switched a knife with a sniper. i wonder what would happen. but no your idea wouldn't work. nexon has a file for every account. so say i have a g3 in my inventory. you cannot possible change your weapon because it is server sided.
Arn't the attributes hosted on our computers though??? Like damage dealt n stuff like that?
No, the only thing that the files on our computers determine is what everything in game looks like on our screens. The server tells our computer which objects to render and what they do and our computers display it. Editing the files just change what the objects look like.

gun stats are server sided, so even if you did this, you would just have a g36 that shoots exactly like the m16. bad recoil, poor damage, all that stuff.
purely visual.
really?
oh yeah, rate of fire can be changed with cheat engine, so that would change.
everything else would still be shitty though.
