Title: Any FFVTTR Spuds out there?
Post by: freegentile on February 21, 2010, 01:51:54 PM
Buenos dias! Are there any spud rocket fx's out there for FFVTTR? I know some of the FF mods had the spud rocket fx, but I am sorely lacking an Iron Man anti-tank rocket fx & would love to be able to use single or multiple spuds instead of the "Tank Cannon" fx. Thank you kindly!

Thank you, herodad, I appreciate that. There's some crazy stuff there, for sure. I don't see any rockets on that site, though, like the spuds from FF. I would imagine that I could take the spud rocket fx from FF & use EZNifConvert, & put it in FFVTTR. That possible? I went ahead & tried it. I copied SpudRocket1, 2, & 3 from FF & all the spud-named textures. I converted the nif's & it shows in the list, I get the rocket animation, but there's a pixilated blue blob around Iron Man, my test hero, & then it crashes the game. Hmm. I pointed it @ core.nif, set it as ranged/projectile & ranged/explosive projectile, set start, core, & end as "weapon", since there are nif's for all 3. Maybe I'm missing one of the textures or something. Lemme know whatchy'all think.

Only convert the 3D core nif - Just use an end nif from FFvTTR like tank cannon or skyking grenade - Converting the non 3D fx will make some funny things happen & also the old FX for ff1 will have a severe delay on projectiles radius & areas damage :blink:

10-4, sir. Thank you for the low-down. On the merging of dat's...I have trouble determining which one is the "write to" & "write from". Is the old one the write to & the new one is the write from?

Bless you, Previs. I am sorry I hadn't hunted thru the new FRPMods site more thoroughly. Thank you for such great resources, sir!

electro, you noted, "write to the one in FFX3 from the ones I gave ya". Does it have to be ffx3 or can it be one of my mods, like ffx3Mappack?
