It would be cool if the player can be allowed to go the village on the other side of the river in Paycheck. Is it possible to expand mission boundaries?

Only if you have got the map editor.
There is also a region in level Wintercold,
Which you cannot enter.

Machine Gun

According of an idea of Warrant Officer (reported to me by forlik)
I tested it an it seems to be possible to use the machine gun (MG42).

There are two ways to add it to the game:

By replacing it with an existing weapon e.g. Mosin Sniper with
Silencer, because there are two of them available.

Bug: In inventory selection screen and in inventory there will be
still the pictures of the Mosin.
By creating a new weapon in weapons.shadvs.
Bug: This weapon is only available in levels where you can pick it up

I tested version #1 and it worked. I will test #2 because this seems to
be the cleanest method.

I just need some infos about the weapon (weight etc.) but I will ask
later, when I analyzed the shadvs.

A question:

Was the ZIS truck only used by soviet army or where there
civil version at that time. If yes which color?

MG 42

Method #2 worked. The weapon is now fully spawnable. Also via console.
Only Bug: The inventory picture. But I will work on it. But the TGA image
is tricky....

Edit:// I succeeded in adding a MG42 picture to the inventory & selection screen.
But the other pictures now become dirty. TGA with saved marks are hard to handle...
But I will try...

ZiS-5 (Zavod imeni Stalina - Plant im Stalin) is the automobile of civil designation (output of these cars began in 1933). Then they began to be made for the Red Army too. Civil car was not differed from serviceman except the Red Star and the special numbers on the doors.
