I have successfully done that with special weapons such as diamondbacks and Guardian.
In the weapon_equip.ini file, find the gun you wish to edit


[Gun
nickname = special_gun07
ids_name = 263542
ids_info = 264542
DA_archetype = equipment\models\weapons\co_proton_cooker.cmp
material_library = equipment\models\ge_equip.mat
HP_child = HPConnect
hit_pts = 6752
explosion_resistance = 1.000000
debris_type = debris_normal
parent_impulse = 20
child_impulse = 80
volume = 0.000000
mass = 10
hp_gun_type = hp_gun_special_10 <<<<<<< change the number here

The number determine the class of the weapon, you can change it from 1-10. If you delete it, it will fit into any weapon hardpoints except CM and Mines.

I haven't tried modify the shiparch.ini
I think there is a way to make the weapon fit into any hardpoints, but I know I must modify the ship hardpoints first.

Do you just ask EVERYTHING. Try looking for a change, cause i know you didn't look. Its out there.

Cool down, there's no reason for being rude. He just told you to try it yourself, it's really simple.

Look into shiparch.ini for the names of the different Hardpoints and add them to the line
hp_gun_type = hp_gun_special_10
for example
hp_gun_type = hp_gun_special_10, hp_torpedo_special1, hp_torpedo_special2
to mount them in your Torpedo/Cruise Disruptor Slot

You got that by looking? Good job! Seriously dude, people hate it when you ask alot of questions like you do, people also hate rude people, like you. Now for a math lesson, read carefully: hated characteristic one+hated characteristic 2= one annoying person. So if you actually looked, that would kill one hated characteristic, and if you STOP being rude, then everyone will like you!


Short Resume: Chill out dude.

There is a way to make any gun fit any slot regardless of slot type. Just place this in the munition area.
hp_type = hp_gun

It'll make the gun fit on any gun slot. Replace gun with turret for turret slots.
