Changing Explosions

Once again, I need help

. I want to change the Emperor's Air to Ground move, so that instead of the Normal electric-looking explosion, it has the explosion of a time bomb. I tried simply changing the odf from the normal effect to com_weap_inf_thermaldetonator_exp... sidious's effect simply disappears. doesnt crash the game or anything, just isn't there.

Anyone care to give even more help to a new modder

Sure!

The saber odf calls out for the explosion. Don't call out a new explosion file, just change the effect from inside! See in the timebomb line what it is, and paste that in the saber-explosion.

With the thing you did, i don't see why it shouldn't work, maybe you forgot to add the odf to the side?

An errorlog would help!

The error log had 0 errors and warnings, and by the changing the saber log, that just means to go into Side/imp/odf/sidioussaber and change the explosion properties to the explosion properties for a timebomb, right?

Get the default sides, so start from the beginning/reset the changes you've made. Now open 'imp_weap_hero_sidious_exp.odf', and press ctrl+a. Delete it. Copy the below lines, paste them in, save and munge, and enjoy!

Code: Select all

[ExplosionClass]
ClassParent         = "com_weap_inf_timebomb_exp"

[Properties]

(make sure it uses the imp side btw!!)
