I believe it's the '<ClipSize value="7" />' in these files here (edit both files):

If that 'weaponcomponents.meta' makes no difference (if another mod has overiden game load location for it, for example), then search inside other 'weaponcomponents.meta's (should only be about 25 in the entire game) in the 'dlcpacks' & 'update.rpf' > 'dlc_patch' folder structures for 'COMPONENT_VINTAGEPISTOL_CLIP_01' & edit them instead.

If you find multiple files, 'update.rpf' overrides equivalent files in 'dlcpacks', 'dlcpacks' overrides equivalent files in 'x64a>w.rpf'

General Tips for Searching Inside Files in GTA V:
You can use openIV's search ('Ctrl+F3') to find files by name, extract all to a folder somewhere, search inside the extracted files with search software/windows search & then with a bit of luck, if you find what you are looking for, guess the file location in openIV by comparing the file sizes & then confirm by looking inside them.

Alternatively, & better in the long run, build an exact replica folder structure of the game using windows folders & then extract any & all '.meta/.xml/.dat/decrypted '.ymt' files to their equivalent location, so that when you search the whole folder hierarchy, searching inside files for something, the windows folder location you find it in is the same as the games.

Thank you so much!! This is absolutely insane. The other gun I need to find which seems harder to find than the illuminati is the SNS pistol. That's the other one I've been looking for for weeks to change.

SuperTriniGamer

SuperTriniGamer
