---- remember about the ViewID above? specied your own id!lol

And for the finale steps

Download luac5.1.4

then download notepad++ open it

click file>save as>batch>file type as .bat

after save it this will look alike

as you notice there is already accessoryid.lua and accname.lua meaning withtin that folder those .lua will convert in .lub even how many .lua's you got in that folder.

so open the batch this will pop up after opening it

after that press any key as what cmd said

then poop the two lua file it become lub

then you are done put the .lub in your luafiles514 > lua file > datainfo and you are done

NOTE:

You have to make sure that you have latest data folder!!!! to avoid other errors

[Emistry 1,993]

for those people who are not really familiar with batch command / stuff...

you can just simple use the notepadd++ click on "Save As" and save the file as LUB ...

[Damaso 1]

how does it work for custom weapon sprite? I tried to add view ID in the lub files but i think weapon sprites won't work??...

P.S. Sorry for bad english..

[Boogiepop 4]

luac5.1.4: accessoryid.lua:1008: '}' expected <to close '}' at line 1> near '='

luac5.1.4: accname.lua:1034: ']' expected near 'S_HAT'

Press any key to continue . . .

 

 

If anyone is having the above issues, the first one is because you are missing a comma at the end of the previous line (1007 in this case), and the second is because your accname is missing [ ].
