## Weapon Swap Mode

| ***Commonly featured under***

***Settings in Shooter**-**style GAMEPACKs**,* "**Weapon Swap Mode**" covers managing Weapon M.O.D.s (Macros On Demand) through **8** Weapon Slots, and swapping between slots during gameplay. |

| | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Weapon Swap Mode determines the arrangement of the 8 Weapon Slots on the Dashboard. Each slot can be fully customized to meet your needs, but only one slot can be **ACTIVE** at a time. It is important to be aware of this to avoid unintentionally applying the wrong M.O.D.s to the wrong weapon. Fortunately, RGB LED indication on the STRIKEPACK™, and indication in the app will help you to keep track of the current position and exactly what is being applied. ***

### Options

Instructions	Image
Tap the GEAR icon at the top-right of the Dashboard to go to the "Settings" area, then find the "Weapon Swap Mode" setting.

There are ***usually*** **4** options to select from; **Automatic**, **Manual**, **Direct**, and **Hybrid**. If any of these options are deemed unsuitable for a specific game, its GAMEPACK may feature fewer options, or even **NO** Weapon Swap Mode setting. |

. Either option will track your Switch Weapon button (default:

) presses, enabling synchronization with in-game weapon switching: {% hint style="info" %} You have probably already noticed the LED swap between ![](https://1841283601-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FFYraHizgjOptWmwCAGKE%2Fuploads%2FxF37bfHDGBbODGJMmBw7%2FRGB_LED_YELLOW_TEXTBODY.png?alt=media\&token=5b93b49f-aa18-4599-af99-eea1fc4118fd) / ![](https://1841283601-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FFYraHizgjOptWmwCAGKE%2Fuploads%2FkZXqRG5oHPXxYUgAvo9h%2FRGB_LED_RED_TEXTBODY.png?alt=media\&token=62016ad1-760b-4ddc-a61a-0feaa3fe35a6). {% endhint %} Frequently, it is necessary to resynchronize this feature with your game:

Automatic has four selectable tracking Loadouts, whereas Hybrid has one tracking Loadout and six spare slots. "**Manual**" Swap is structurally identical to Automatic, but without the Switch Weapon button tracking. "**Direct**" Swap supports almost every shooter, with eight numbered Weapon Slots for you to **manually** swap between, and assign as you see fit. {% hint style="info" %} We know it is a lot to take in. Automatic is the default option for most GAMEPACKs and if you are comfortable with it "as is", you can skip to [**Weapon Setup**](#weapon-setup-next). {% endhint %} *** ### Extended Options

Certain GAMEPACKs such as **Shooter GAMEPACK**, have options that are designed for games that switch between a larger number of weapons. *** "**Cycle**" Swap is designed for games that enable you to carry & cycle through multiple weapons, often through a weapon bar that expands as you pick up more weapons. It is adjustable up to **8** Cycle Slots, and supports Switch Weapon button layouts such as Switch (default:

), Bumpers, Triggers (Flipped), and D-Pad cycling.

{% hint style="info" %} This type of inventory layout has been spotted in some Battle Royale games :wink:... {% endhint %} *** "**Select**" Swap is designed for games that assign weapons to the D-Pad

. *** "**Third**" Swap is designed for games where

holding your Switch Weapon button (default:

) will switch to your Third Weapon. It assumes that switching back will always switch to your Primary Weapon. {% hint style="info" %} This type of weapon system has been spotted in some Looter Shooter games :wink:... {% endhint %} *** See the links below for a full breakdown of each option, then after making your selection,

tap the

back-arrow at the top-left to return to the Dashboard and observe the Weapon Slot layout.
