Thread: Adding a special attack bar to a new weapon

Spoiler for Problem with Spec Bar RUSE:

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to add a spec bar to a weapon on my Ruse based server. I looked around, found that needed to add the infos of the spec in CombatSpecial.java, so I added this. I based it off of the Korasi's sword which I put below.

Spoiler for CombatSpecial.java:

Code:

 
	/*weapon item id
	 *spec % used
	 *strength bonus
	 *accuracy bonus
	 * combat type - melee - mage - range
	 * weapon interface
	 */
   REAPER_SCYTHE(new int[]{11588}, 10, 9.8, 9.8, CombatType.MELEE, WeaponInterface.SCYTHE) {
    		@Override
    			public CombatContainer container(Player player, Character target) {
    				player.performAnimation(new Animation(2062));
    				player.performGraphic(new Graphic(1958));
            
    				return new CombatContainer(player, target, 2, CombatType.MELEE, true) { 
    					@Override
    						public void onHit(int damage, boolean accurate) {
    							target.performGraphic(new Graphic(1194));
    			}				
    		};
        }  
    },

    KORASIS_SWORD(new int[]{19780}, 60, 1.55, 10, CombatType.MELEE, WeaponInterface.SWORD) {
                @Override
                public CombatContainer container(Player player, Character target) {

                    player.performAnimation(new Animation(14788));
                    player.performGraphic(new Graphic(1729));

                    return new CombatContainer(player, target, 1, 1, CombatType.MAGIC, true) {
                        @Override
                        public void onHit(int damage, boolean accurate) {
                            target.performGraphic(new Graphic(1730));
                        }
                    };
                }
            },

Which didn't change anything, still no spec bar.

I then tried looking for any other custom weapons with a spec that were added, I found a razor whip, so I tried looking for that Item ID to see if I missed some place where I needed to add my custom weapon's ID, couldn't find a thing for that weapon spec, nor for any other specs.

I then tried switching the Korasi's Sword's ID with my custom weapon, switched it everywhere I could find, still no spec for the weapon when I spawned my weapon which had all the Korasi's infos.

I then found that it can be changed in the cache, so I tried Tom's Cache Suite, but when I look in the first index which are for items, I went to 11588 (my custom weapon's ID) and found this:

I then tried Frosty's Cache editor, but when I try to load items I get this:

And here are what the cache files look like:

Spoiler for Cache file indexes:

Which I'm pretty sure is the right way to have them named.

I am stumped, please help me

Thanks!

FIXED! In weaponinterfaces.java, I located this:

Code:

						SCYTHE(776, 779, 6, new FightType[] { FightType.SCYTHE_REAP,
								FightType.SCYTHE_CHOP, FightType.SCYTHE_JAB,
								FightType.SCYTHE_BLOCK },

Which is for all scythes, but it's fine for now.
I then looked for another wep that I know has a spec bar, e.g. Dragon Halberd:

Code:

HALBERD(8460, 8463, 6, new FightType[] { FightType.HALBERD_JAB,
FightType.HALBERD_SWIPE, FightType.HALBERD_FEND }, 8493, 8505),

, so I changed the SCYTHE code to this:

Code:

						SCYTHE(8460, 8463, 6, new FightType[] { FightType.SCYTHE_REAP,
								FightType.SCYTHE_CHOP, FightType.SCYTHE_JAB,
								FightType.SCYTHE_BLOCK }, 8493, 8505),

Which made the button appear!
The only thing is now the buttons are for the Dragon Halberd (Jab, Swipe, Fend), but the spec I set for the scythe works!
If anyone knows another way or how I can make it so it is the actual scythe buttons, otherwise this'll do until I learn more.

Hope this can help someone.

Yes, put it near the top alongside other spec weapons

Code:

  {
    "hash": 11588,
    "item-id": 11588,
    "interface": "SCYTHE"
  },

Btw how did you comment on my thread 30 minutes before I posted it lol
