Mod Details


In short, this mod makes all the flaming swords in the game into actual flaming swords. It replaces the FS (flaming sword) animations with flaming sword animations.

"This is 1ppv3 content, which means, it's actually finished this time (for any race/gender combination). Not only that, but I completely rebuilt what was already there for consistency's sake. I noticed some rather embarrassing mistakes I made with my previous release that didn't sit right with me. Mainly you would have noticed that the M category (elves?) seemed remarkably less lively than say, the N one (human female).

I would have released this a few days ago, but a quite unexpected last-minute bug honoured me with a surprise visit. I have tried and fixed it, but not properly, which means I'm - again - not totally happy with it. You may or may not notice what I mean.

"Hopefully there shouldn't be any problems, but feel free to point them out if they exist."

1ppv Flame Short Swords

Includes:

- Flaming short sword animations and paperdoll images
- Item patches for both canon and some modded files
- Fixes for a few 'standard' flaming swords that weren't patched in Nythrun's installer.

Notes:

This is an upgraded version of the original mod actually patching (as opposed to overwriting) the items for improved compability.

Usage:

If you want to create a mod using a flaming short sword, the process is fairly simple: Create or alter a normal short sword. If you want the flame to glow in the dark (most flames do), make sure you give the blade a colourglow_solid effect (pointed at Location 21) in NI.

Change the 'Inventory Icon' from 'SS' to 'F2'.

It will work fine if this component is installed, however, if they happen to not be installed, your game will crash upon trying to equip your item, so make sure your potential players have it installed (for instance by packaging it with your mod and installing if it isn't present).
