Ranged Weapon double as a hand-to-hand one? Worth to be read... I think...

Hi all :wavey:

 

Is it possible for a range weapon to be used as a hand-to-hand one? Imagine the scenario:

You see a stupid Gamorean at 20 m. away and you shot him. He charges at you, when he comes in range of the hand-to-hand, the PC fights using the staff animation, but the same weapon.

Understand? I donno if it's possible, but after my "parallel-with-modding" idea, when the enemy gets to... let's say 2 m. from the character, it is triggered the staff animation, much like the computer does when you put a party member to the "Ranged" role- when the character is attacked with melee, it switches to a melee combat.

Right...

But then something else...

Like having the same model of a gun for a melee weapon and the melee weapon equipped in the 2nd slot? I don't think that's to hard. How can I do it?

 

P.S. Men that answer was quicker then expected. Thx!!! :)

I'm fairly certain that can't be done also. You'd end up with even more problems than with a weapon that's both. What would the gun do during the melee animations?

 

Perhaps he's asking for new animations for the gun so it looks like you're pistol-whipping or somesuch?

Nah... The animation of the staff... Can't be done... I mean, can't I use the staff animation for a Mandalorian Heavy Repeating Gun? I mean, that gun is big...

Please. Someone tell me how to add the staff animation to a new weapon with the heavy mandalorian repeater model, please...

I do not believe that there is any way to make the game recognize a combination ranged/melee weapon. If it was, someone would (probably) have already made the Ultraviolet blaster/knife combo.

 

There is a small glimmer of hope, however. You can take the parts out of a melee weapon model and replace them with the parts from the blaster model. It won't shoot, but you can beat on Gammoreans with it. If you want to get really fancy, you could hold the "club" by the barrel, and have some blades sticking out of the butt.

Wait... Is the request for TSL? If it is I think you could do something like this. You could have two separate items that look the same one of them would be a melee weapon, the other would be a blaster (I think you can swap weapons in TSL when you press a button). Of course it would look a bit strange when you stopped a lightsaber with a blaster. :xp:

Cortosis blaster. :D

 

Sounds like a neat mod idea. Definitely will look/feel more realistic (:lol:) because of the weapon sets, so you can switch from blasting someone in the face to blaster-whipping them upside the head. :)

Well, I'll be playing around with a "Head-On-A-Stick" weapon anyway, and this is the same basic concept, so I'll see what I can do. You have to tell me what <3 means, though......

It means a heart :xp:

 

Yes for TSL!!! If you do this I'll <3 you more then I do now!!!

In another way to say it:

Me Love you long time.

Er, it might not be what you're looking for, but I once had a bit of fun by setting the "weaponwield" value of blasters in baseitems.2da to the stun baton's one. And I think I also changed the range (don't remember the name of the column, maybe "weaponrange" or something). Well, if you basically want to bash guys with your blasters, that's the way to do it. You can't switch between fire/bash modes, though.

Here it is:

 

This is a Heavy Repeater that has been modified for melee fighting. It has a pop-out barrel extension which enables the user to turn it around and use it as a club. In this mode, the power pack is diverted to an energy shield, which enables this fearsome bonecrusher to stand up to lightsabers.

Put it all in your TSL Override. Use KSE to give yourself the item ev_melee_38.uti

 

Edit: It only works as club. It does not shoot.

But plssss, make one with a staff animation too! PLs, pls, pls!!!

Edit: Ow and if you can you could also make a Heavy Blaster with the animation of a stun baton.

 

What, exactly, do you mean by "staff animation"? Do you want a staff to pop out of the barrel?

No no... The PC/NPC will fight using the staff animation. No need for add-ups (barrels, knives etc.) The character just holds the the gun from the middle and attacks like he would have in his hands a staff- like in your first mod, it fights like it had a saber in his hands.

Get it?

The combat animation. I thought you meant the internal animation in the model. In that case, it should work just fine. Minor intercontinental communications glitch. I'll post it in the Upper City Emporium in the next day or two.
