Reloading and no sound issue with 5.56 weapons pack

[RBSmoKez]

Hey there, I am having an issue with 5.56 weapon mod. i have downloaded it and i can use the guns, but even with the ammo in my inventory i cannot reload them and it says i have no ammo. also, none of the guns have any sound and when i press f1 while it's loading it says there is no sounds.xml folder, and i checked in the folder and it is there but it's just an empty/blank page. i have deleted and downloaded the whole mod countless times now and every time the sounds.xml file is blank. please help i don't know what I'm doing wrong, been trying for hours to fix it but nothing. if you need a screenshot of the error in-game or the blank xml file let me know, sorry for wasting time if it's an easy fix...

For the ammo, did you press and hold R to select the ammo?

 

I got the mod installed on my computer and home and will check later tonight to see if I am getting the ammo issue or sound issue.

I feel very dumb... yes, I just had to change ammo type. the 2 errors I am getting sounds like this.

ERR XML loader: Loading XML patch file 'sounds.xml' from mod 'Weapon_firearmIZY556' failed:

EXC Root element is missing.

 

Thanks for your reply, I hope you, or someone else might know what's wrong.

I had zero errors and all sounds worked for me on the mod.  You might want to try redownloading and reinstalling the mod.

 

Also let me know the exact mod you are using.  That item name is not in the mod I am testing out.

I have deleted and installed countless times every time the sound file is blank... I think i'm just going to ditch the mod, I have tactical weapons mod working and it has more guns anyway. thank you for your time, and have a great day
