Simple Cog

[H.Q. Pendragon]

I don't know much about cogging, but I remember something about being able to create an unfair lightsaber. I'm not planning on using it in mp, because I don't play mp. I recently downloaded the Haven 16 level, and I need something other than quick fists that can help me beat him. It takes forever with a lightsaber, and when I do vanquish him (ghosts cannot be kill, only dematerialized), he respawns back in his original cell. Surely you could help me Shred. Some thing that simple could take you like 1/bijillionth of a second.

[Shred18]

Me? I'm an artist, not a cogger... yeah..

Why dont you just play with a mod active? heres one: http://www.massassi.net/levels/files/1060.shtml

[H.Q. Pendragon]

Thanks man. I know it's like asking Da Vinci to draw a stick figure, but that ghost is friggin' hard to beat.

[H.Q. Pendragon]

I use to have this mod. All this will do in close range is crush me to death. I just want a "one-hit-kills" lightsaber, besides, this pack interfears with the have one.

[H.Q. Pendragon]

Once again, what's little to you will bring years of ghostbusting enjoyment to my JK. Thanks. :D

[H.Q. Pendragon]

Come on Shred, what are you trying to pull. I'm no expert at cogging, but I can at least change sounds, projectiles, and animations. Your cog only made Kyle reach for his hip. Funny thing is, when I change the value you changed, I can't get it to work either. What's up with that? :confused:

[H.Q. Pendragon]

Once again my fault. Sorry for pointing the blame Shred. I created a gob with the original weap_fist.cog from the res2.gob, and it does the same thing. What am I doing wrong!

[H.Q. Pendragon]

Sorry to post a new topic so soon, but Shred18 gave me a cog, and it should work, but I can't get it too. How hard is it to get some help around here? I don't mean to sound ugly, but I'm having a legitament problem, and on one is answering me. Sorry again to the moderators. I would just like some answers before I get one of theses: :banned:

I've got a Cog. It's for a weapon. When I use it, all Kyle does is reach for his holster, and replace his weapon with the exact same weapon. (Bryar -> Bryar; Fist -> Fist). First thing I did was lose my cool on Shred, which was wrong, and I apologise, but I did some testing, and I found out I couldn't even get it to work in the resource/cog file. Then I tried the saber cog lucasarts made, and it did the same thing. It must be something wrong on my part. I've tried gobex, patch commander, and manual input, how do you correctly get a lightsaber cog to work. If you need referance to the cog, it is in the simple cog post right under this one.

Sorry again to the moderator for two consecutive post on the same subject in the same day. :(

[zagibu]

I can send you a complete gob this evening, if I don't forget it...

[H.Q. Pendragon]

That would be very aprecieated, pardon my grammer. I'm just so confused when it comes to anything but texture editing. Thank you very much.

That usually indicates some sort of problem with the cog. Have you run PARSEC on it?

Thats ok. I took the liberty of merging them.... ;)

[H.Q. Pendragon]

I have never heard of PARSEC, but I think the problem lies with me. I went as far as to pull the "weap_saber.cog" from the JK res2.gob, and placed it (unmodified) in a gob made with gobex, a gob made with patch commander, and even in the resources/cog file. Even the un modified cog gives me problems. But if PARSEC might help me with my problem, I'd be willing to try.

[H.Q. Pendragon]

I GOT IT TO WORK! :D All I had to do was change the beginning numbers, like Shred said, but to a value that JK would except. My saber has 5000 hit on every swing, even scratches. So thanks a whole lot guys, I weild a lightsaber that can wreck an chicken walker in one hit. :cool:
