hey q on blow dart code

[NevaDead]

so the swap file works and solaire is holding the correct texture but  the dart is invisible somehow... even though the blowdart uses the world texture (while item is dropped) from the same file as the dart. an earlier time i thought it was because the files were saving with transparent layers or something but I just redid them all and I don't think that is it. Additionally, the projectile has been visible and was adjusted to desired length but the other textures were not working. Is this common?

Basically i'm occassionally shooting with invisible bullets even though the bullets are being loaded. why did i use a gun metaphor? the changes i've made were here

--inserted line 2

    anim:SetBank("blow_dart")

anim:SetScale(8, 8, 8)

    anim:SetBuild("blow_dart")

 

--here

15

    inst:AddComponent("projectile")

    inst.components.projectile:SetSpeed(15)

    inst.components.projectile:SetOnHitFn(onhit)

    inst:ListenForEvent("onthrown", onthrown)

    -------

 

--and here

 

*2

    inst.components.equippable:SetOnEquip(pipeequip)

    inst.components.weapon:SetDamage(TUNING.PIPE_DART_DAMAGE*2)

    inst.components.projectile:SetOnThrownFn(pipethrown)

thanks/ solaire loves you!

Hmmm Ill look at this more later see if I can help, but honestly I came here to say good on you for making a Solaire! \o/

 

Pretty much my entire existence is based around dark souls, if you need any help long term with a project like Solaire or another dark souls based one, I'm down.

So... I THINK it might be a issue with your blow dart build (seeing as nothing else SHOULD impact it being transparent or not).

I may make a test to try and figure it out. Been thinking about it all day.

[NevaDead]

Well that's good because I haven't beat the game yet XD. I'm more an idealist than an actual devotee. I just loved the idea of Solaire ever since i was introduced. I'm glad to have any help. Can I send you a media fire or would you like to try retextures? I'll send you the link. Also, if it is with good reason I'm open to adapting existing content or ideas. You are so hired. Thank you so much, Deadly. Jolly Cooperation haha.

Anybody feel free to help. I can't do it with out you guys. Thanks
link to image files for the 3 blowdart files i'm having trouble working all together. especially the rescaled "darts" now to function as lightning spears for the mod. and elaborations or suggestions are needed to make this mod as special as possible for the community of Dark Souls as well as ours at Klei. Solaire would want that :*)

Alright Ill get to looking at it, also Im bad at art stuff, but Im GREAT at programming stuff. (I'm majoring in it in college)

So I can help you plenty there.

If you wanna check out my work get my "Wilk the outcast" mod off steam, Ive already gotten solaire off there.

 

Ill work on seeing if I can get the dart working, is there any reason solaire uses darts though?

Basically just link me the entire file in rar or zip format and tell me what you need help with and I can work on it

[NevaDead]

That's fine. I'll check it out in a while! Darts were just the first thing I knew about in the game that resembled the spear. There is no deep meaning beyond that haha. There is a list on steam of planned features.
