hold that thougth brb testing

apparently it doesnt
unless i am doing it wrong?

**Stromgarde** · 2011-12-02 02:12

There's a junk texture in here, but try this:
ACglow.DAT
It's an Ares's Cuirass for Hume M that has a persistent glow effect on it from the Tidal Talisman. If you compare it to the Tidal Talisman you might be able to find something promising... anyway, off to bed, good luck!

**Kayu** · 2011-12-02 02:14

nop it goes off as normal? maybe they changed the trigger? amagad SE

i am guessing its hume version M?

**Stromgarde** · 2011-12-02 07:27

Yeah, it's for Hume M.

**Kayu** · 2011-12-02 08:14

will do try to find the differences but i dont think i will find none, since the tidal talisman is a effect that never turns off damn and i had such a cool ideas with the new spells and effects from stuff

hmm seems the effect of tidal kinda works different from what mooshy does, all the information is before the infoe so looks something like

Code:

body dat>tidal>end.............infoE...........................end.............

ohhh i have an idea! i could be wrong but ill test it tommorrow.

Bear in mind that the texture from the tidal talisman is still in there; There was never an easy way to remove textures that I know of short of manually editing out the hex. Also, there are only two ends in the Tidal Talisman, which is probably indicative of the fact that it's always on, however it seems the effect is shortly before the end of the file since it has that

Code:

.....xx..xx.. ..

type striping that we see in the weapon effect DATs.

**Kayu** · 2011-12-02 20:13

ok well i tried to look for differences but the changes where to big to even compare them but i was able to look into a specific one wich i think might some clue

regular ares vs ares with tidal glow

tidal vs ares with tidal glow

as we see i think thats the key for doing armor to armor effects thing i am guessing the key is the HH_b(this is what follows from tidal) to hum_(this is whats next on ares dat is bassically the whole ares armor dat somewhere?)

but in my case i dont think that would work since i am trying to get a effect from a spell(well looks like a blue spell) wich has a lot of schedules and sub schedules.

a fuck my head hurtsssssssssssssssssss to much informationnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

**Mooshywooshy** · 2011-12-02 20:41

lol Too much hex does hurt the brain. I think hex was the first time I ever really felt a physical "Too much information for my brain right now".
The first picture is textures though, and I think the second one is going to be boiled down to them being different armors.

Try to attach a different effect to your armor to see if you're doing it right. If you can get another effect to work, that means it will automagically negate any possibility that the 'method' is wrong and it will boil down to something being weird about that sparkle effect itself.

**Stromgarde** · 2011-12-02 20:55

I think it might be easier to work with a vanilla tidal talisman DAT rather than the edited ares and compare that with one of the new VW armors that have the sphere effects and the glowy thing on the chest; the effects seemed very similar from what I can tell.

**Kayu** · 2011-12-02 21:11

yeah i think ill try a propper schedule and see if it works

mooshy when you where messing aroind with the new stuff did you find that the repeat part is not there anymore?

**Mooshywooshy** · 2011-12-02 22:23

No, all the weapons ive looked through have used that same byte at 10

**Kayu** · 2011-12-02 22:27

this is a spell ir what it seems to be not sure what it is not renamed on AV

**Mooshywooshy** · 2011-12-02 22:50

Are you sure thats not a main schedule as opposed to an effect block? I only ask because I see effect modifiers under it and that usually comes after main schedules

and trg0 sounds like a main schedule xD

**Kayu** · 2011-12-02 22:57

thing is i didnt find 2 rows of 803F 0000 803F in all the dat they are all separated and stuff, gaaaah my brain just died need to eat something be back in a hour -,-

**Mooshywooshy** · 2011-12-02 23:08

lol It wont always have 803F, it might have different numbers in those two lines. They're just most commonly 803F

**Kayu** · 2011-12-03 00:53

nop didnt work with another effect wtffffffffffffffff getting pretty pissed maybe they changed something

well ive looking into the fazhelo armor and alikes and none of them glows ingame wich is pretty weird do you have thye dat for the glowing armor? my last AV ist form july2011

**Stromgarde** · 2011-12-03 10:38

You'll probably have to find it yourself, the people who make the lists probably only grabbed the NQ versions.

**Kayu** · 2011-12-03 21:02

well an interesting thing is tidal has 2 triggers seems is 2 effects at the same time one with a small glow and the other with the big one.

**illyst** · 2011-12-04 00:28

Any dat swaps for Rdm af3 body? perhaps maybe looking like morrigans or something not so ugly?
