 Post Topic: Release: Tsurugi Swords
PostPosted 01.06.2008, 22:15 




Welcome to an update of forum member Knicky's Tsurugi swords. He has now finished and released 16 fully textured Tsurugi swords which are working in Sandbox2. The swords are current static models, but anyone is welcome to modify them to get them working ingame. If you want to use these swords in your mod, you are free to use them as long as you give credit to the author.


Tsurugi Information

Quote:
The First Tsurugi (translated as "First Sword" in English) is a collection of six swords, designed such that they can be assembled into one and used by Cloud Strife as his primary weapon in Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, the film sequel to Final Fantasy VII. The individual swords that comprise the First Tsurugi are not officially named, though some fans have referred to them according to which swords they resemble from Final Fantasy VII. They consist of one main base blade, one hollow blade that serves as the front edge for the combined sword, two identical, but asymmetrically opposite, serrated blades that form the back, and two identical, also asymmetrically opposite, smaller blades that attach to the sides.

okay so does everyone remember the legend of zelda mod that let you use link's sword?
i used the same steps only tried to use one of these models instead of link's sword's model, only instead of grabbing the sword by the handle the way nomad grabs bottles and branches, he picked it up by the blade with two hands as if he was carrying a barrel.
does anybody know why this is?

This is really nice, except that thing with pickcking up the swords with two hands, to the author you need to put helpers on the objects in Max and name them grab_onehanded01, then he will pick it up with one hand

Realistic? By that you mean nice shiny effects, or just "realistic" in a sword fashion, cause if so, you haven't seen many real swords, as I think you have, so I'll just stick with the shiny-effects-realistic-thingy. And also I think the Japanese is better off with katanas, they are more stylish.

Thanks for that :D
I added a helper to a single blade which you can download at the bottom of this post, not sure if I did it right (any tutorial for that anywhere?) I just added a dummy to the bottom of the hilt and named it "grab_onehanded01" hope thats correct but it's all I understood I had to do.
if I did do it correctly i'll add them to the other 15 blades and update the main download.

Unfortunately it's still the same, man he still picks up the weapon with two hands, check the manual again, I guess you need to exactly write it like this: "grab_onehanded_01" without the quotes, try this and upload the new version i'll test it then
