Bow Template (1.20.60 Fix Update)

[ocean nimbus]

I want to contribute something that many people usually look for when creating items, making bows, it is a Custom Bow that works 80% the same as vanilla, it is free to use as long as they give me credits.

(Newest/Recent) 1.20.60 version:
https://www.mediafire.com/file/nax1pyp0ruyo6qe/VactricaKing_Bow_Template_1.20.60_FIX.mcaddon/file

1.20.10 version:

[fresh turtle]

Nice!

[winter crescent]

Very cool

[tough vector]

I only noticed one difference, the FOV increase and speed decrease with a normal bow

And yours has none of that

Otherwise, very cool 👍

[timber garden]

amazing

[gleaming bloom]

neat

[lofty torrent]

curious, could the camera command do something about that?

[gleaming bloom]

i don't believe it has any fov settings

[lofty torrent]

Yeah but camera manipulation to make it look like you're changing it

[tough vector]

Just make the bow slow you down with the api

You can’t sprint at normal speed with a bow

Just reduce the players speed a bit with js

[frail horizon]

@ocean nimbus mind if i duplicate the files so i can make multiple? its just for a server im in

[ocean nimbus]

Yes, sure!

[frail horizon]

ight

thx

[pine plume]

@ocean nimbus how about crossbow?

[ocean nimbus]

Not yet

[pine plume]

Can we use this template in any addon but...?

[ocean nimbus]

Yeah!

@pine plume If you manage to make a crossbow with my template please tag me

[pine plume]

Well let my try it to make crossbow when I'm free from lazy and college's life

[dry quest]

I Have One, But It's Not Able To Shoot. The Animation Works. As Well As The Bow. Just Not Shooting Arrows

[frail horizon]

@ocean nimbus I would love if someone else could take a look at trying to make an elytra template, I've been trying, but fail, as i make mods on my phone.

[paper dew]

Can you add custom arrow entities ?

[dim scarab]

Looks like the recent update messed with this some unless I'm using it wrong.

Toolbar item animations no longer work and I can't seem to get the 3rd person animation working properly, though that's likely easy to fix or just something I've done wrong.

[ocean nimbus]

Thank you for informing me, in a few days I will check if I can fix the error for current versions

[pine plume]

@ocean nimbus I need to know when you make a custom arrow and that arrow can use in vanilla bow or crossbow?

[gentle spade]

has it been fixed yet? I'm curous because I have been struggling a lot on making a custom bow.

[ocean nimbus]

No, sorry, I forgot to update the template 😅

I will update it soon

[gentle spade]

No worries

[ocean nimbus]

Fixed! 😃

[ocean nimbus]

Bow Template (1.20.60 Fix Update)

[paper dew]

can you send ?

[ocean nimbus]

https://www.mediafire.com/file/nax1pyp0ruyo6qe/VactricaKing_Bow_Template_1.20.60_FIX.mcaddon/file

[pine plume]

In arrow, can I make custom arrow?

[ocean nimbus]

Yes!

[pine plume]

Thankd

[acoustic verge]

For 1.20.50 should I use the 1.20.60 or the 1.20.10 version?

[ocean nimbus]

I didn't think about that, because it's still a next version, better wait for the next official version to come out haha

[onyx shoal]

hey, the link that you marked as 1.20.60 doesn't quite work with 1.20.60.. is that the newest version?

judging by the format version, its 1.20.10

[pine plume]

I think you downloaded the wrong version?

[onyx shoal]

I've triple checked, to me, it looks like both links resolve to the same thing
got it to work though, just had to add said component

[pine plume]

You try to download two versions and you compare it

[gleaming bloom]

do you know what might cause the animation of the player holding the bow up while drawing the bow to not play? sorry for pinging you btw

[gleaming bloom]

aired 😞

if i figure it out, i'll put the solution here in case anyone else has that issue too

[ocean nimbus]

I can't, well, not in a conventional way, I don't want to modify player.json, the only solution is with the /playanimation command, the bad thing is that it breaks the wield animation in first person

[gleaming bloom]

well it worked when i just used the example pack unedited

that's why i was confused

it's alright tho, don't worry

[ocean nimbus]

Which example pack?

[gleaming bloom]

.

[ocean nimbus]

That's weird, it's never worked for me.

[gleaming bloom]

odd

ah well, it's just a visual thing, so i'm not that bothered

[distant obsidian]

@opaque shuttle

C'mon ,someone pinned this on dev resource 😭

[opaque shuttle]

Yessss

I finally found how to make bow

[stable radish]

thank you so much, I was planning on making dungeon custom tools and gave up on the custom bow bc of how hard it was.

[amber wren]

hey there! I used your bow template to create a custom bow for my addon. Everything is working fine except for the third-person animation when drawing the bow

I activate both my addon and your template and to my surprise, your template is working just fine but mine isn't

[pine plume]

Is this fixed? And also is it fixed in previous versions?

[uneven vortex]

Is there a way to remove the charging up of the bow fully

[limpid sable]

how would one add more pulling animation

past the 3 already added ones

im kinda new to this sorry

like i mean 6 pulling textures for example

[uneven vortex]

I think I know how too

[opaque shuttle]

how to?

[uneven vortex]

Okay. so there is 4 files you will have to edit

the 3 blue ones contain the animation stuff(bow_pulling) and in the red one all you have to change I think is this

[uneven vortex]

If you need any help just hmu in DM's

[limpid sable]

Oh alrighty thanks

Also

How does one make a custom crossbow

Or is there a crossbow template somewhere in this server

[uneven vortex]

your just going to have to learn how to do that yourself. If I tried I could figure out how but I am still rattling my brain on how to remove the bow animation.

[opaque shuttle]

Hey!

Can you please make a Custom Crossbow Template?

please🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[spiral pumice]

ooh

[opaque shuttle]

Can you please make a Custom Crossbow Template?

please 🙏 🙏 🙏

[jaunty plover]

Can you please make a Custom Crossbow Template?
please 🙏 🙏 🙏

[opaque shuttle]

wtf did u just copy my messege

lmao

[limpid sable]

you could probably make your own basing it off the vanilla files

using the attachables, animations, render_controllers, player.animation

[opaque shuttle]

do you think its easy

bruh

[strong laurel]

Hey @ocean nimbus I recently tried out your custom bow template, My only goal was to have custom textures, but despite changing the texture PNG's I still cannot get it to work, it only displays the default minecraft bow texture

[fringe prairie]

Love this template, a few adjustments and it works in the newest version just fine

[sly lynx]

hey!, did you manage to make the bow not show the arrow when you don't have an arrow in the inventory, I made the animation not to play but the arrow still appears 😦

[fringe prairie]

It doesn't shoot the arrow already, making no changes

Do you have ammunition in the shooter component still?

[fringe prairie]

Also how did you get the animation to not play?

[sly lynx]

yes, but it looks weird to run everything :/

[sly lynx]

with this

q.main_hand_item_use_duration > 0.0f && c.is_first_person && (t.iterator = 0; loop(27, {query.is_item_name_any('slot.inventory', t.iterator, 'minecraft:arrow') ? {return true;}; t.iterator = t.iterator + 1;}); t.iterator = 0; loop(9, {query.is_item_name_any('slot.hotbar', t.iterator, 'minecraft:arrow') ? {return true;}; t.iterator = t.iterator + 1;}); return false);

[fringe prairie]

[fringe prairie]

This doesn't seem to be working for mine

[sly lynx]

yes, I have it the same, I mean the arrow does not fire when there are no arrows in the inventory, but the animation is still running, the frames change

[fringe prairie]

Ohh

[sly lynx]

I don't know why, in fact right now my bow is stuck haha, it won't shoot

[fringe prairie]

i thought u meant the arrow wasn't spawning

Prob gotta modify the render controller

[sly lynx]

the arrow should be removed with this but I can't find a way to make it detect the inventory as well

[fringe prairie]

Am trying smt

[sly lynx]

it would be great if you could find a way because I've been trying since yesterday xd

[fringe prairie]

idk what i did but i broke it now

[sly lynx]

why?

[fringe prairie]

I tried making this into a variable

but it didn't work

It's like it's always returning false

[sly lynx]

I tried many times, I honestly don't even know how that for works, I only saw it in a thread a long time ago

[sly lynx]

yes, but not in the “wield_first_person_pull” animation, because otherwise it would continue executing the bow pull animatio

[fringe prairie]

oh no

i'm getting in too deep now

hmm

[sly lynx]

I don't know what it means, it came out in several of my attempts

[fringe prairie]

idk bruh, i ain't able to get it

i tried lol

[sly lynx]

no problem, ty 😄

[rugged olive]

Does this works for 1.21+?

[fringe prairie]

It needs a lil update to the item json, but yeah it works after that

[rugged olive]

What kind of update?

[fringe prairie]

not entirely sure, did it a while ago

I just updated the stuff to the most recent format

[modest horizon]

I’m having this wierd issue where if I change the identifier or anything like that the bow use animation stops working

I’m using @fringe prairie updated code + whatever else was in the original

[modest horizon]

It’s fine when I basically just retextured the existing bow

(Replace the textures and model file)

but when I try and edit the code itself straight up just changing the identifier the bow use anim just stops working

[ocean nimbus]

Bow Template (custom components update) coming soon!

[modest horizon]

Perfect

[pine thicket]

@ocean nimbus
is it out yet ??
if not then can you help me make a rocket launcher ??

[spiral pumice]

Guess not

[strong laurel]

Commenting so I can be updated when it drops. in desperate need of this haha.

[ocean nimbus]

It'll take a while to update this, I've been really busy with mods, but not Minecraft.

[magic fable]

hey! any luck with the custom components template?

[rugged olive]

Does this work for 1.21.50?

[fringe prairie]

https://tenor.com/view/angai313-spongebob-sad-spongebob-crying-gif-21679826

It still worked w/o custom components for me

I just had to update some stuff to the new format

[modest horizon]

My issue was the 3rd person bow animation not working

[gleaming bloom]

it's linked to this duration

at 9999 the anim plays incredibly slow

[ocean nimbus]

That time does not extend the animation, it only ends it.

It is very necessary to place 9999

Otherwise the animation will loop.

[ocean nimbus]

Haha, I haven't done it yet, I had another custom component pending that is for my door, I don't have an estimated date yet but I doubt it will take more than 1 month since I found a good method to optimize my code

[gleaming bloom]

it was directly linked to the speed for me

[ocean nimbus]

Unless that component has been updated and now works like this, I'll check it out.

[gleaming bloom]

it's real weird

i made a crossbow out of this template, or rather, am making one

it's not perfect yet lol

[modest horizon]

it does the eating anim 4 me

the annoying thing was everything else was perfect

Or close enough anyway

[magic fable]

Do pre-Custom Components content simply not work anymore?

Or can I set to 1.20.60 content version in the file and use the old one?

[magic fable]

So just a heads up, it appears that your code is largely fine. At least from what I've seen and tested in the most recent versions. What's sticking out to me is the draw animation not working, but I'm looking into getting that done

[strong laurel]

so at this point what needs to be altered for the first person animation to work?

[magic fable]

Update: I’ve fixed it to work in stable. It takes a few tweaks in the RP side mostly.

[strong laurel]

just curious, what tweaks were made to get it going correctly?

[magic fable]

You need to make some changes, afaik, to the item definition (to bring it and the arrow up to 1.21.4x standards)

Then you need to repoint some of the textures in the RP files. I’ll look back if I can fit it in tomorrow and try to see what exactly was done

Most of it is in the resource pack though

[rugged olive]

.

Don't mind this, I just did that because the files are buried.

[gilded elbow]

Can this still be made compatible with 1.21.x?

[still grove]

make sure the animations use the same identifer

[modest horizon]

It does

[still grove]

does the attachable state what animations to use and the animation controller??

And in the controller does it have the same Identifer(Idk if they do have identifers tho)

[silver iris]

Where is third-person animation defined in this addon?

[stiff drift]

This template isn't working anymore

[lofty torrent]

I should probably post mine

I combined his and the other guys and made some other tweaks lol
