[Work In Progress] Originally a request , Bow And Arrow Mod

[RagdollZombie]

Ohyeah. I forgot about that. The loading via the file explorer doesn't work. The arrows are SavedObjects, and they do work for some reason. But anyhoooo, add these lines:

Code: Select all

addItem('Interactive Objects','Bow','Data/Custom/gyrth/bow_and_arrow/Items/Bow.xml','Dog Tool Hammer.png');
addItem('Interactive Objects','Quiver','Data/Custom/gyrth/bow_and_arrow/Items/Quiver.xml','Dog Tool Hammer.png');

to Data/UI/spawner/objects/interactiveobjects.js and add them to the scene using the spawner. This is a workaround.

oh yeah I forgot about that :3 thanks!

I updated the mod to the new Mod system. The directories are now:

Code: Select all

Data/Items/Bow.xml
Data/Items/Quiver.xml
Data/Items/FlashBangArrow_prefab.xml  
Data/Items/ImpactExplosionArrow_prefab.xml  
Data/Items/PoisonArrow_prefab.xml  
Data/Items/PoisonCloudArrow_prefab.xml  
Data/Items/SmokeArrow_prefab.xml  
Data/Items/TimedExplosionArrow_prefab.xml

Add these to the end of Data/UI/spawner/objects/interactiveobjects.js:

Code: Select all

addItem('Interactive Objects','Bow','Data/Items/Bow.xml','Dog Tool Hammer.png');
addItem('Interactive Objects','Quiver','Data/Items/Quiver.xml','Dog Tool Hammer.png');
addItem('Interactive Objects','FlashBangArrow','Data/Items/FlashBangArrow_prefab.xml','Dog Tool Hammer.png');
addItem('Interactive Objects','ImpactExplosionArrow','Data/Items/ImpactExplosionArrow_prefab.xml','Dog Tool Hammer.png');
addItem('Interactive Objects','PoisonArrow','Data/Items/PoisonArrow_prefab.xml','Dog Tool Hammer.png');
addItem('Interactive Objects','PoisonCloudArrow','Data/Items/PoisonCloudArrow_prefab.xml','Dog Tool Hammer.png');
addItem('Interactive Objects','SmokeArrow','Data/Items/SmokeArrow_prefab.xml','Dog Tool Hammer.png');
addItem('Interactive Objects','TimedExplosionArrow','Data/Items/TimedExplosionArrow_prefab.xml','Dog Tool Hammer.png');

Now you can use the spawner.

Thank you very much, sir. Your mod is amazing by the way.

One more thing, has anyone had the problem where in midflight the arrows flip around so the tail end of the arrow sticks into the enemy? as comical as it is i'm just curious if theres a way to fix this? I appreciate your replies.

when I try to put the bow in the left hand either by pressing 'b' or assigning it the game crashes. I'm using the steam advanced testing branch and I think its on A215, any ideas on how to fix?

Edit: it only crashes when you try to put or switch the bow to the left hand, the arrows still work and switch with no crash.

The problem was with the function QuaternionFromMat4. Autious fixed it. Try the internal_testing branch on steam.
I added the spawner icons to the mod files. So no need to manually add them. Just look in the Interactive Objects tab in the spawner.
The explosion decals are red for some reason. That's also something I can't fix. Dev(s) are working on the decal system, so it might be temporary.
The rotation of the arrow mid-flight is pretty weird. I have no idea what changed.

I need a little more info to be able to help you. What steps are you doing? Are you getting any error messages?

[Kage-Poteto]

Somehow when I try and load the bow or quiver, it loads a fail whale, and when I continue it says:

No convex hull found for Data/Models/default/default_Model_2.obj

I'm on alpha 216. Is that the problem? :O

[OrderlyRabbit]

Is this not compatible with the newer versions?
