I really wish there will be a method to get melee weapons into the game.. That would be soo epic!

 

here’s how it works

 

the melee weps data is still in the game, however if you attempt to spawn a melee weapon, it won’t work. this is probably due to 2K ‘disabling’ melee weapons, by making weapons with those ID NOT work.

 

if you open up the weapon data thingy, it’s like:

IDÃâà Name

0 – this is basicly fist.

4 – Colt 1911

22 – Knife

 

you can use SDS explorer to see how it looks like… very similar

 

now I think what Andrashi did is replacing ‘fist’ with ‘knife’. This way on his videos, everyone had knife (he had to restart the game many times to film it all, due to constantly changing weapons.tbl)

 

so weapon ID 0 becomes knife…weapon ID 22 becomes fist…

 

I’m also unsure but he might have replaced guns with melee weapons, although I doubt it

 

so in short, theres no ‘good’ solution to put melee weapons in playable state in game

The person/people who activated melee weapons in the demo actually could’ve used it instead of a gun. As you can see in the image it shows the ammo.
