How would i do this?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

So I made my own sword model almost the exact dimensions of the linked sword. I was wondering how I could apply the same damage values, animations, and overall features of the original to my remodel.

#2

The linked sword, the roblox gear correct? Because Linked Sword I believe uses Grip Position, not animation, or am I wrong?

#3

The roblox gear. yes. Also I do believe it uses grip position

#4

You can just get the linked sword from the toolbox and get the values and stuff from it then put it in your remodel but you may have to re-grip the positions.

#5

Put a script into the sword, containing the following:

Tool = script.Parent
Handle = Tool:WaitForChild("Handle")

function Create(ty)
	return function(data)
		local obj = Instance.new(ty)
		for k, v in pairs(data) do
			if type(k) == 'number' then
				v.Parent = obj
			else
				obj[k] = v
			end
		end
		return obj
	end
end

To add a MouseIcon put a LocalScript into the sword, containing the following:

Mouse_Icon = "rbxasset://textures/GunCursor.png"
Reloading_Icon = "rbxasset://textures/GunWaitCursor.png"

Tool = script.Parent

Mouse = nil

function UpdateIcon()
	if Mouse then
		Mouse.Icon = Tool.Enabled and Mouse_Icon or Reloading_Icon
	end
end

function OnEquipped(ToolMouse)
	Mouse = ToolMouse
	UpdateIcon()
end

function OnChanged(Property)
	if Property == "Enabled" then
		UpdateIcon()
	end
end

Tool.Equipped:Connect(OnEquipped)
Tool.Changed:Connect(OnChanged)

Add a Sound, name it SwordLunge, put the audio ID as 12222208

Add a Sound, name it SwordSlash, put the audio ID as 12222216

Add a sound, name it Unsheath, put the audio ID as 12222225

Then add a TouchInterest

Okay, so I tried pasting the scripts from the original sword into the remodel (same scripts as you posted above) and the position is completely off. I have absolutely no idea as to how I should manipulate the script to direct the grip to the correct position

#7

Use that to reorient your sword and determine the origin grip, then work in terms of that. That’s considering LinkedSword hardcodes grip changes with a position and rotation matrix.
