Sword sprite doesn't show weapon trail on swing.

[Satoh]

So I glanced at this thread, which helped with some of my issues, but my custom weapon isn't displaying the weapon trail or playing the correct sound when swung.

 

My item ID is 13500, and is listed thus:

Weapon_IDs = { 
    --normal IDs here...
    WEAPONTYPE_Wizardy_Staff = 97,
    WEAPONTYPE_Blackrose = 98
}

WeaponNameTable = {
    [Weapon_IDs.WEAPONTYPE_NONE] = "",
    -- ....
    [Weapon_IDs.WEAPONTYPE_Blackrose] = "_13500"
}

Expansion_Weapon_IDs = {
    [Weapon_IDs.WEAPONTYPE_Main_Gauche] = Weapon_IDs.WEAPONTYPE_SHORTSWORD,
    --...
    [Weapon_IDs.WEAPONTYPE_Blackrose] = Weapon_IDs.WEAPONTYPE_TWOHANDSWORD
}

WeaponHitWaveNameTable = {
    [Weapon_IDs.WEAPONTYPE_NONE] = "_hit_mace.wav",
    --...
    [Weapon_IDs.WEAPONTYPE_Blackrose] = "_hit_sword.wav"
}

(Commented lines represent the rest of the entries)

 

The sprites are in this folder as such:

±â»ç/±â»ç_¿©_13500.spr

±â»ç/±â»ç_¿©_13500.act

±â»ç/±â»ç_¿©_13500_°Ë±¤.spr

±â»ç/±â»ç_¿©_13500_°Ë±¤.act

 

The weapon itself appears as it should, but as I said before, but the 'woosh' animation that accompanies a swing, doesn't show up, and the sound effect is a generic club sound. (This is a sword, so that's incorrect)

 

I'm using 2012_04_10a RE.

 

Am I forgetting something?

DO NOT CHANGE ANYTHING HERE

@EDIT

In your luafile's you need to set the view_id of Blackrose to 98

In which file would I place that? I don't see any files that handle view IDs except accessoryid.lua

[Tales]

Go to your/path/ro/server/System
Open the systeminfo.lua and dont forget to Increase my Rep

let's rock

I mean ClassNum
In your "/serverFolder/System", open the file itemInfo.lua and add this code:
 

[13500] = {
        unidentifiedDisplayName = "Black Rose",
        unidentifiedResourceName = "Blackrose",
        unidentifiedDescriptionName = {
            "A rose that's increase your life.",
            "^000088+45 HP^000000.",
            "^FFFFFF_^000000",
            "Weight: ^7777777^000000"
        },
        identifiedDisplayName = "Black Rose",
        identifiedResourceName = "Blackrose",
        identifiedDescriptionName = {
            "A rose that's increase your life.",
            "^000088+45 HP^000000.",
            "^FFFFFF_^000000",
            "Weight: ^7777777^000000"
        },
        slotCount = 0,
        ClassNum = 98
    },

I was afraid you were going to say that.

For some reason my client completely ignores that file.

[Tales]

Do you have some screens? Some Warnings/Errors?

There are no errors. My client doesn't read any information from iteminfo.lua or .lub

Its still reading from the old plaintext files. I don't know why.

 

I know its not being read at all, because I don't even have a translated version of iteminfo, yet all my items are in english, and modifications to num2*** and idnum2*** files work.
