Hi I am trying to impliment melee in my game and well i went to a resource for help but am having a hell of a time getting it to work. ANY HELP at all would be absolutly awsome!

I went to this thread

its under programing resources/physics/simple melee system.

and well so far i have a sword model and the scripts needed but when i go to get it in the editor i can only find it under static shapes and so i cant pick it up as a wep and am havving trouble getting it.

Did you implement the engine changes in C++? Did you exec the sword.cs script file from game.cs?

Yes i did i changed the necesery files in player h and blah blah and execed it in games.cs its all there in the resource but for some reason it comes as a static object or static shape so i cant pick it up for some reason.

Hmmm.... I would try figure this out, but I don't like to mess with C++.
Not yet anyways. So yeah, sorry, I got no idea whats wrong.

The fact that it is appearing as a static shape has nothing to do with melee resource. You must have a script error in your sword.cs file, or you failed to exec the file. Try running it in debug mode and then check your console output.

The other thing i can recommend is getting the realmwars source from CVS, it's where the melee resource came from.

Check server/scripts for sword.cs.dso, if you dont have one then you have error in the script. Like Afrim said check the console. Search for crossbow in player.cs and game.cs that show you how to start with sword in hand. Change the starting equipment and allowance inventory.

game.cs

   // Starting equipment
   %player.setInventory(Sword,1);
   %player.mountImage(SwordImage,0);
   %player.setInventory(CrossbowAmmo,999);

player.cs

   // Allowable Inventory Items
   maxInv[BulletAmmo]   = 20;
   maxInv[HealthKit]    = 1;
   maxInv[RifleAmmo]    = 100;
   maxInv[CrossbowAmmo] = 99999999999999;
   maxInv[Crossbow]     = 1;
   maxInv[Sword] 		= 1;
};
