A while back I uploaded a small tutorial on shooting a weapon in CS. At the time I wasn't aware of the shooting animations on the Coldstone CD. WOW! they are great! The graphics that is. So, instead of making your own graphics, which is what half of the tutorial is about, look in the Coldstone CD under Art Lib/ Medieval outdoors(folder)/fx_anim...these are the animations. under fx_Anim_Frames are the graphics for the animation. So all that stuff about how to set up the animator is already done. now just jump to the part about making a new item and set that all up just as the tutorial states. The arrows all shoot in the direction you aim if you are using the "bow hero". Try some of the other animations using the "bow hero as the shooter. Interesting effects!
Just in case you forgot how to choose him... got to menu/project/game options...select misc tab, click players map display, select. In the game root folder select the NPC_Hero. You will see a red square with an arrow in it next to the character. That arrow means animation. Scroll down until you see another animation arrow. As you click on it, it should say HeroBow. Click the select button. and save. Now you are a bow warrior. Get the tutorial and make him shoot arrows ,fire balls, or whatever you find in the Arts folder.
