Jason777 Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 For those of you who have know me, at one point I had a mod of my own where I completed a small custom dungeon that was to represent the Light Temple. This hack also included a highly customized sword consisting of a new model, new GI model, new icon, new label text, new animations, and... custom effects all made possible through an ASM hack. Anyway, I'm focusing on the ASM aspect here; you were supposed to be able to fire beams from your sword and so I planned to do this by firing light arrows. The only problem there was that I could not for the life of me figure out how to shoot an arrow after spawning it! Every time I would spawn an arrow, it would float in the air. Try as I might to reverse engineer and figure out the details, I couldn't pinpoint exactly what flags to set. This actually went on for several years. As time passed, I would make attempts every now and then to find this mystical "shoot" flag. I was wrong in making the assumption that there only needed to be one flag to set! I finally figured things out last night; you can see the fruit of my labors in the video below: I won't be releasing the hack, but I will give you vital information concerning firing an arrow.

Jason777 Posted November 13, 2014 Author Share Posted November 13, 2014 You wouldn't believe how long I've been researching how to shoot an arrow because I was convinced only one thing needed to be changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
