Maxwell .LUA files

[Tenjuin]

Hello, I'm currently learning how to make my own custom character. He's an artist and I'd like to him to be able to make real life paintings which come to life and help the artist during his adventure. The art of the character is done. As a special power, I want the living paintings to work exactly like Maxwell shadow puppets.

I'd like to duplicate some codes into my artist files or maybe to understand the coding.

My problem is that I do not have Maxwells .LUA files. My question towards you is, how am I able to view the files of Maxwell?

Don't go hard on me for my english writting mistakes, I try my best to learn the laguage.
Thank you in advance.

I found them in data/scripts/prefabs

Hope this will help someone

I hope someone could help me.
I'd like to be able to summon the shadow puppets like Waxwell does, but I'd love to do it with my own custom made character. I tried to do some copy-paste but sadly it doesn't seem to work.
My character has the materials Waxwell has, but he's not able to interact with the Codex Umbra and the Shadow Tab doesn't show up.
I seem to miss something with he code, maybe I have to adjust the Shadow Puppet ULA file?

This is my ULA file of the character who I'd like to be able to summon the shadow puppets.
Thank you in advance.
