So I am trying to make a weapon that makes you invincible because I just made a really cool custom effect. I max out the values that I think are the right ones and test. Nothing. I have the effect around me but I'm not invincible. Here are the odfs:
all_weap_inf_invincibility all_weap_inf_invincibility_ord com_weap_inf_buff2 com_weap_inf_buff2_ord I assume there is probably something obvious that is wrong with it. Also, when I use it the effect stays on for about five minutes before disappearing, but I only want it to stay on for 30 seconds. Help is greatly appreciated.

wow i had just typed up a big explination but it got deleted just now because i accidently pressed the wrong button... retyping...

First off there are alot of things wrong, First, for the effect lasting 5 minutes you should go into particle editor and edit it to last 30 seconds or just set it to -1 for the spawning so you can make it last how long you want. Second, to make a defense buff actually defend you you need to set it to a decimal, you setting it to that high number just makes it do more damage to you. Third, you don't need the health regan if you set the defense multipler to 0 since anything times 0 is 0 which means you will take 0 damage.

i think thats it, its a bit shortened from the first time i typed it but it sums it up, any questions?

Well, my question is how to shorten the length of it in PE. I can't seem to do it.

EDIT: It seems the damage multiplier isn't working. I set it to zero and stay the same.

for particle editor you change the transformer and how many particles are spawned in the effect.


for the defense multiplier make sure to clean then munge and if that doesn't work set it to a tiny decimal like... 0.0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001

The invincibility still doesn't work...

I remember someone accidentally finding invincibility, use this line in your odf: I tested it and it will stop you from taking damage at all.

It still doesn't work, doing a clean right now...

if it doesn't work next time can you repost your new weapon odfs so we can check them?

It didn't work, so here you go:

aaa aaa_ord com_weap_inf_buff com_weap_inf_buff_ord Changed a few paths and names to see if it would work. It didn't.

i dunno if it will help at all, but you have a lot of useless lines in there, Such as the spread factors. If its a buff it wont need those i wouldnt think.

I'll remove those and see what happens.
