Equip any character with any weapon

Thatguy, from agetec's forum offer's this groundbreaking trick:

Hello

I thought this was interesting... I was able to equip my Knight model character with a katana and soon found out this works with most or all weapons and characters. Not sure but i tested this a few times on a couple of my characters with different weapons and it worked every time.

-Create a class that can use the desired weapon.
-Switch the current class of the character you wanted to use it to this class.
-Create the Weapon and set equipable to you character.
-Now Change your characters class back to what it was.

The weapon should be equipable and usually looks pretty good. (havn't tried the little girl with the Great Sword yet but curious) It seems if you ever attempt to edit the weapon after you did this, it will "reset data" no longer allowing the character to equip the weapon again.

after you start the game, will it still allow you to purchase that weapon type in a shop for that character?

DarkMajin · 09-25-2005, 01:32 AM

Nope. I believe iff you do that method, your character will have to keep it for the whole game if you want them to keep that type of weapon.

WONDERFUL! WONDERFUL! WONDERFUL!! I've wished that I could have different people equip different weapons! Now I can have a Ninja using a Dagger!! HIGHFIVE!!

Wow..... this is very cool. Very nice find indeed.

I just tried it. It does work if you buy the weapon at a shop.

writersblocksucks · 09-25-2005, 09:03 PM

Awesome, thanks. great find

. I didn't want my main hero looking like a roman soldier just so he could hold a great sword.

The White JackeL · 09-26-2005, 12:20 AM

it wont let a warewolf have a sword, it still limets the animals *sigh*

but yes indeed ty and it still helps. haha although a elf shots arrows out her sword haha

UBER LAME!

Dragonsbrethren · 09-29-2005, 03:05 AM

Before I do this for my main character I want to know something. If I do edit the weapon, can I trick the game into letting a character use it again? By changing the class back to the one that can equip it and repeating the process? I tweak my weapons constantly, I'd never be able to do this if I can't touch them after creating them.

If I don't get a reply I'll probably test it myself next time I play.

Dragonsbrethren · 09-29-2005, 05:21 AM

As I thought it works fine. Now my two knights can share some swords, rather than having to make two complete sets for them.

Dyne · 09-29-2005, 09:21 PM

The only downside to this trick is that it does not work with opposite sex characters. I.e., no males holding spears or females using tonfas.

Chuck · 09-29-2005, 09:36 PM

Considering what an improvment it is over each model only having one weapon type, that's not much of a downside.

hitogoroshi · 09-29-2005, 09:38 PM

I don't really care. I try to establish the storyteller heads as their primary look, so the whole model thing is shot to hell anyway.

Never said it was a big downside, did I? I was estatic when this information was released.

The Magic Hat · 09-30-2005, 01:49 AM

Couldn't quite get it to work. I want a "kunoichi" type character to use a great sword. Each time I switch character class back to where I want it, the weapon I want to use becomes unequipable. Do I equip the weapon on my character before switching classes or do I not equip at all?

I had the same problem. Unfortuantly, you cannot have the character equip it before hand (through the People section). They can only equip it in-game.

The Magic Hat · 09-30-2005, 09:20 PM

Aah, that answers my question. I'll have to try that later.

The White JackeL · 10-01-2005, 01:16 AM

So theres no way to have a Warewolf use a say... GS or a S&S from what i understand, right?

HolyPhoenix · 10-03-2005, 11:07 PM

Yes. I wanted other weapons for a different class. This is a most exiting find. Thankyou thatguy from agetecs forum and valk for bringing it to us.
