Modding 75-115 clubs and longhammers
a.k.a. giving each weapon their own look.
As we all know, 75-115 clubs and longhammers all use the same graphic, and if we edit their dds, they all turn into what you edited. I found a cure for this though.
As we know, weapon.ini shows us the info about the graphic.
For example, here we have lvl 100 long hammer, from weapon.ini.
Here comes the point of my guide: We want it to use lvl 100 longhammer texture, which we have made, since CO doesn't have one. So, we change it like this:
It wont show on your characters hand correctly, only a shady reflection of it remains.
Here is what I found out: CO doesn't only use weapon.ini to define the texture-dds for weapons,
it also uses 3Dtexture.ini. As from there, we will have to find the longhammer part, that looks like this:
Now we have to add a new longhammer, to make lvl 100 long to appear with a lvl 100 long.
This is not, I repeate, this is not a rip off from cofusion.org. I am Brownleaf, and I wanted to share my finding with you guys too, since I've seen a couple of club modifications in here and to me it would be annoying to have all clubs/etc. changing.

As you can see, it uses the texture for lvl 75 longhammer.Quote:

This is the correct way of doing it, but suddenly, our longhammer just disappears.Quote:

As you can see, it ends to level 75 long hammer, that is the first of the last kind of longhammers.Quote:

540146=c3/texture/540146.dds
540148=c3/texture/540148.dds
Now we have to add a new longhammer, to make lvl 100 long to appear with a lvl 100 long.
Adding this small detail on 3Dtexture will make your lvl 100 longhammer edit visible and only on lvl 100 longhammer. Works similar with clubs too and every other longhammer.Quote:
