Custom weapons not working

Hey guys, I've been trying to modify the rebel rifle...(make it fire faster and make AI more accurate)

*First I modified the common weapon's ODF...nothing happened

*Then I exported the assets of the rebel rifle to my sides and made changes to the weapon's ODF....nothing happened

*So I decided to copy the ODF code lines of the common rifle and pasted them on the rebel rilfe ODF. So in essence the weapon doesn't have to rely on the any common files. I made changes there ...and it worked!!!

But the thing is know I'm trying to modify the thermal detnator (increasing rumble and damage), I repeated all the steps mentioned but nothing happens.
If anyone can tell me of an easier way to modify the weapons or the correct way and how to solve the thermal detnator problem I'm having.....Thanks :D

another way to make custom odfs is to make a completely new one with the original odf you want to modify as classparent and then only put the parameters you need to modify in your custom odf and let it load the rest from the original one. you could also copy and rename the original odf. if you modify an odf without changing its name and afterwards load a side with the original, unmodified odf the game will use the original one.
