Xbow to bow animation question.

[sjak]

Hello everyone,

I did read a few posts on this forum about this swap.
What i have done so far is changed the model of Crossbow of Relentless Strikes to the legendary bow.
Also i have changed the animations needed.
I have tried to hex edit my itemcache like in this picture : ImageShack - Hosting :: 95291811dr5.jpg

Still the problem is that my Night elf female is holding the weapon in the wrong hand wich screws up the whole animation.
Is anyone able to find a solution for this problem?
Any help would be great

Thanks in advance!

Yeah there's one more thing you need to edit in the itemcache to get your character to hold the weapon properly.

u must also change something in the itemcache, here the picture:

this fix is for the position of ur xbow to bow, because xbow is in the right hand
and bows are in the left hand, this is fixing it.

If you need more specific instructions on how that's done or want me to do it for you, let me know.

Hello there,

Thanks for the reply
I would like to have some more instructions on how to do that.
Like in the picture i have changed that. But still it isn't working for me.
I did change the A1 to OF. Is there more to be done then only that?
Thanks in advance

Last time I did an edit like this, changing that value did make it work. Are you sure you edited the right one? You should find the value 1A by counting 25 characters from the last character of the crossbow's name.
And if it still doesn't work, are you absolutely sure the animations are working as they should?

Basicly what i did is. Looked at the screenshot and searched for 469F8 in my itemcache and changed the A1 to OF.
Nothing happend also no error so it must be the wrong one.
I don't understand how you could find the crossbow's name in the itemcache with hexedit.
I'm using Xvi32 btw.

EDIT : Yes the animations are working fine. But with the weapon in the wrong hand it looks wierd and doesnt fit

Yeah, that's where you did it wrong. You'll have to search for your original crossbow's name and once you find it you count 25 characters from the last character of its name and edit the value there. I haven't used XVI32 but I would think it's not really that hard to use it. You'll just have to make sure you search for text and not hex values. :P

Ill check in-game and let you know
