Weapon Particles

[NatedogEZ]

Is there a way to see weapon particles for newer weapons on older clients?

I am using the HoT client and followed the guide on the forums to see all the icons / weapon graphics. But now the issue is .. is there other files I need to copy over to my HoT client to see the Weapon particles?

This weapon should be a red sword with fire coming off of it. I can see the fire on my RoF client .. just not HoT.

Anyone have any ideas?

Kind of shooting in the dark here but if you followed the guide and still have issues, the newer weapons may have data that is unsupported by the older client.

Something which I have not seen is a well documented list of weapon icon / graphics available per client. Once we have RoF stable hopefully most of these issues are gone!

You can make 99-100% of all weapons viewable on any client, if you take 10min to patch to live then copy/paste the required files to the older client, adjust global load if required and add the required lines to equi_animations.xml

I have your EQUI_animations.xml but I can't see particles for RoF weapons.

I can see all icons and weapons though which is the best part at least.

Might need to copy over the .dds files etc.
Still need to figure out whats up with the lack of particles for some weapons.
IE on my sod client I can see the weapon id from your first post and the particles for it.
