Seems like something that the old Vendetta Server would do.. hell of a lot of customizations but thats why I loved it... not a lot of 1.4.5+ are customized besides... dont know cant really think of any. But im tired and didnt even finish half of my Homework so...I have to get down and dirty with this stuff tommorow and Im going to feel sooooo smart when I finally make my 1st weapon lol but I was looking and wondering (because I searched up .ecm) And seen some post about the effects on the weapon... I didnt really understand like... How do you make it a certian way , electric, circles, sparkles etc? is there a tuturiol on that?
just edit on .ecm and some path for gfxOriginally Posted by Queenz
not that I know of, do what everyone else does ~ trial and error:
trial and error is king!
yes... some of it already on Vendetta. but we not use Vendetta content. we find the original game by ourself, and do a small fix. and yes it's a little help from Vendetta too.
Trial and Error is your best friend.

Well the problem with me is that if I even try trial and error method.. I wont know if its going to work or not lol.. I dont own a server because Im a regular player so I have no idea how im going to test it out to see if the weapon is going to be big enough or too small... I was wondering if I could get a picture of any random sword on PW And put it on blender and model that and then edit and customize it but againt I dont know if its going to be the exact replica of the weapon knowing people take full screen shots and prints of them holding it and what not..
Buy a cheap weapon from the blacksmith and find the model in models.pck in the client. Then either edit it or make a new one and replace the existing model. This way you will be able to see it in game. Make backups first!
Probably a good idea to ask the server owner first though. Some of them don't want people poking around in their clients because they don't want their custom content stolen.
I did also start trying to upgrade the scripts to Blender 2.66, I'm not sure if it will work though. I fixed the syntax errors but the Blender module is no longer used so I need to find a replacement.
Do i open the model.pkc with Nopepad ++ or what? And im sure Jay wont midn I told him about it before because I was intrested but I totally forgot now Im going to do it.

Use spck to upack models.pck.
You can also use pwpack or pwrepack as well.
Lol ok so I think I did something wrong And so I
I found sPack into the deep file and went to model... searched for THAT spack and attacked it to it and that black box came up.. I did think i did something wrong. and Now all the files are attached to that.
Copy the models.pck to the spck folder. You may need to edit the "extract_pck.bat" file. I'm not sure what Ronny has in it.
Otherwise Shift + Right Click and chose "Open Terminal Window Here" the type
It will then create folder called "models.pck.files". This contains the models.Code:sPCK -x models.pck
Ok i copied The models pck to the to the folder and click on Extract_pck bat and it came up "Third argument is not a valid file" Is it because i attachted sPCK to it before? And even with that I still tried to Shift and click it still goes "Invalid amount of arguments" Im trying to figure out how to detach files and make the need to be able to open with something again. Time only knows.
those weapons besides the fans are in the chinesse community weapons if any1 is interested(yeah...locate them yourself) if you want to do them :
things needed:
notepad++(or locale set to chinesse PRC) -.gfx files structure
-.ecm files structure
photoshop -.dds plugin
-%#^@loads of tutorials
in the weapons pictures some gfx's where added from different games and some color saturation retexturing so it should be easy :D
time
extra note : there is no 3D modeling in those pics and also the .ski import/export plugin is incomplete
also the fan's are mine with gfx's added by brian >.>
also for extracting pcks edit that .bat file to
spck.exe -pw -x *.pck for extracct
spck.exe -pw -c *.pck.files *.pck for repack
must be in the same folder spck.exe and the .bat file

So u can acutally take gfx files from other games... ai yi yi! Plus I dont got no photoshop.. but I guess I can get it off Piratesbay...And thats an amazing fan you made lol. I saw some GM Said she used it on Total War PW Server, thats where i saw it (GMApple)
you can use Gimp as well instead of photoshop wich is for you more conforting(or any tool that has .dds importing/exporting)
