One of the most badass-looking short swords ever is now available for your Soldat.

[IMAGE]

Includes a vertical slashing animation in place of the stab. Most of the credit for the animation goes to Ivan the Psycho. I copied the animation from Mecha Soldat and edited it, chaning the placement of a few frames and continuing the slash almost to the ground, instead of the stop at mid-slash. I didn't consult him beforehand, but I didn't think he'd have a huge problem with it, and I am citing him for it.

I am fully aware that the interface graphic is grossly oversized. It wouldn't have looked good in any other size, and no amount of being a smart-aleck about it is going to change it. =P

Remember to back up all the knife files, including and especially bije.poa in your Anims folder, before installing.

Edit: Mod is playable online. Also, you'll have to change the name in weaponnames.txt yourself; the mod doesn't.

Clicketh hereupon for yon download

Looks cool. Can you play online with modded animations? If so I'll download. Nice shading and everything BTW, what program you use?

This mod should be playable online, yes, I forgot to mention that. Apparently, only certain animations can't be modded, but a modded punch/slash works online just fine.

I found the image of the sword on soulcalibur2.com, rotated it, added the outlines and some shading in MS Paint, and some of the shading in openCanvas. In-game graphic made entirely in Paint.

Yeah apparently you can play online with the modded animations, i never knew that, very cool nice sword/razor lol could make it shorter to make it a smaller knife would look good.

Yea! This is very nice shaded. I like it very much when modder make tons of feature about his mode ...that's just avesome and I must say "good luck".
Features. In this mode I mean those animations and nice in-game look of that "sword".
Hmmm and nice forums pic. Absolutly awesome. :D :D :D

Wow, glad you like it.

One wee disclaimer, though: It turns the punch into what looks like a girly slap.

that's odd, because i installed sprocket's punch/stab combo mod and it f*cked up my soldat.

ownage mod. i hope there's no red background with it.

Nope, the red background is my interface. Glad you like it.

Bahaha! I want to see that!
Maybe it has something to do with maximum frames? Online play, I mean.
I'll download this... I broke my teddy on re-install. Looks great and shading worked well.

July 16, 2005, 5:23 am
Thanks. Let me know what you think once you've tried it.

All of you, that is. =P

I've become all but addicted to it already, but that's just me. It's much more fun to lop somebody's noggin off with a nice swift slash then with an unenthusiastic stab.

about that. look at the throw weapon animation.

Zero72
July 17, 2005, 2:40 am
I can't right now because I don't have the program on this computer, so do me a favor and get right to your point. =P

As a side note, I just got Insane Kills with this weapon in a zombie match. That was awesome.

my point is i think theyre identical (ivan's and the throw weapon).

Zero72
July 17, 2005, 2:45 am
I assume you're talking about the grenade one... In which case then at least he changed it to one arm instead of both. I'll check it out tomorrow.

Zero72
July 17, 2005, 4:01 am
I don't think it's such a big risk. Even if it doesn't work, for some mysteriuos reason, that's why you back it up first.

Failing that, the graphics still work without the animation, even though it's really a slashing weapon and not a stabbing one. =P

It will work. Do u have Ivan's Mecha soldat ??? It's from there and U can play with it normaly.

You find reinstalling Soldat a pain or what? Like (Please refrain from swearing) itll take 1 minute 2 minute tops i do it all the time due to trying/testing out mods and other things that may screw it up but i find that silly it aint Source where you have to use 5 cd's to install :| but anyway, i installed the razor it works very well once again id like to compliment you on a job well done.

Zero72
July 18, 2005, 6:10 am
Thanks a lot. =) I'm really glad you like it.

By the way, I feel I should mention, for those who don't know, that I didn't design the sword -- it's from Zelda: Majora's Mask.

Will u make any more sword ? Coz U'r Is cool. Mine no1 like U_U'

Zero72
July 18, 2005, 6:45 pm
lol, my only problem with your sword is that the in-game graphic is too big to be a knife -- in my opinion, anyway. The actual design is awesome.

To answer your question, I'm not sure about other swords, but I do have a few tricks up my sleeve.

I know I'm bumping the topic, but I really don't care, because I want to say great job zero. I downloaded this weeks ago, and I'm extremely impressed. I had been looking everywhere for a knife mod, and there are no others that can compare. GREAT job :-)

P.S. I saw your BC Gun (nice job on that too) and I was wondering if you could make another replacement for the soccom. Maybe a gun from Contra or another nes game. This is just a suggestion.

Who [CENSORED]ing cares? He brought up this thread to give feedback about mods, which, last time I checked, was the whole [CENSORED]ing point of this forum. Reviving a thread with a post that is on topic is better than going off-topic and complaining about the revival of said topic.

EDIT: Two people were post fined about half a year ago for the exact same reason.

Loki: If I do make a Contra gun, it will probably be for the Steyr. I've been considering a 2-weapon Cave Story mod, too.
