Please I am confused and frustrated

wide bear
#

You can use the new flver editor I believe.

#

this is ER but I believe its similar for DS3, if not you can do this in the old flver editor too

slim dove

#

which flver are you editing? and where is it located

slim dove
tribal crystal
#

? it probably only has one bone. And you wanted to edit dummyPolys, right? those are not bones

tribal crystal
#

so, you added it to a flver inside a partsbnds?

#

did you repack the partsbnd afterwards?

slim dove
#

how do I repack?

tribal crystal
#

the flver needs to be inside of the weapon's partsbnd

#

you can unpack and repack using witchybnd

slim dove
tribal crystal
#

that's how it works

slim dove
tribal crystal
#

overwrite the original flver inside, yes

#

it's frankly weird you didn't do this to get the flver in the first place fatcat

slim dove
tribal crystal
#

the partsbnd to unpack, then the unpacked folder to repack

slim dove
#

ok, here's what I did

#

I dragged sister friedes weapon part on to witchy it became a file

#

I dragged sister friede's edited flver into the file

#

and overwrite/replaced the existing flver

tribal crystal
#

so far so good

slim dove
#

I dragged the file on witchybnd, but the file is still here

tribal crystal
#

the file?

#

or the folder?

slim dove
#

folder

tribal crystal
#

if you dragged the folder, then it updated the partsbnd

#

check the partsbnd last modified date to verify

slim dove
#

ok it was updated

#

do I check in anims now?

tribal crystal
#

yep

#

if you're using mod engine, you will need to tell dsanimstudio where the project folder is

slim dove
tribal crystal
#

which partsbnd did you modify

slim dove
#

sister friede's weapon

tribal crystal
#

gimme the name

slim dove
#

1018

tribal crystal
#

full name

slim dove
#

wp_a_1018.partsbnd

tribal crystal
#

did you also do the _l variant?

slim dove
#

oh, no

tribal crystal
#

that probably isn't the problem though

#

do it just in case anyway i guess

slim dove
#

so I go back to flver editor and edit the bones on it

tribal crystal
#

you can just copy the flver you already modified

#

it's the same weapon, just slightly lower detail for phantoms

slim dove
tribal crystal
#

? just copy and paste it

#

into the partsbnd

slim dove
#

ooooh

#

I copy and paste the partsbnd into the unpacked wp1018 folder or just the parts folder

tribal crystal
#

parts folder

#

are you using mod engine

slim dove
#

if you count the convergence file as one, yes.

tribal crystal
#

oh! also when using dsanimstudio, did you tick "use unpacked game files"

slim dove
#

No, no I did not

tribal crystal
#

yeah, try that. also where exactly are you putting your modified partsbnds

#

in the mod engine folder?

slim dove
#

in the parts folder

#

in the game file od ds3

#

its a file named "The Convergence"

#

I guess it isn't mod engine

#

when I click inside the modengine file isn't present

tribal crystal
#

if it's a folder named The Convergence then it's using mod engine

#

when using dsanimstudio, tell it that's your project folder

slim dove
tribal crystal
#

did you unpack the game with uxm?

slim dove
#

yes, but I unpacked the parts folder with witchybnd

tribal crystal
#

just parts folder? then no

#

but wait, is the modified partsbnd in the convergence folder

#

if no, you should put it in there

slim dove
#

yes

slim dove
#

the parts didn't work, but the chrbnd I worked on before did work

#

I see it now

slim dove

#

when I customize the entity untils and click on it, it only shows golden ritual spear for some odd reason

tribal crystal
#

are you sure you didn't replace friede's scythe flver with the wrong weapon lmao

slim dove
#

I even have a image that the model is 1018

#

also, the bones would be on the golden ritual spear if I did
