Adding completely new weapons

[vocalstud69]

Well, I got the .dds edited, and the effects done. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to add them to the game, without replacing weapons already there. I know there has to be a way to add them to the elements.data, but I don't know how. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Edit: It occurs to me, after thinking about it, that I might not be able to edit client side elements.data, but what about server side? Would I be able to add in the weapon there?
