I was thinking of doing a bow and arrow some time ago but it looks like you beat me to it

One bug: The arrow missile proxy is backwards. (flys backwards)

So lets talk about the katana. Can i slash fools? Does it work in multiplayer as well? Is there a custom animation for the sword?

[reedkiller 0]

no custom animations for either weapon

Arrow flys backwards

katana men don't attack anyoone

katana is FAR too big

textures are poor

but on the up side - it hasnt been done before

Nice effect with the arrow in the bow.

As a sidenote, I wish someone would make a modern crossbow - there have been one or two medieval ones, but I'd like to see a modern hunting crossbow, maybe with a scope, like a Barnett or Horton:

Thank you for trying this addon

I will change reloading BOW animation.

But I dont know how to change custam animation of KATANA.

If you would like to create some new animations for use with the Katana, I can recommend some good vid downloads or pics that demonstrate most of the moves used in Kendo and Iaido. I understand that only one or two "attacks" would be prefered, and there are dozens in real life. But you can look over the various ones and see which you like most or which is easiest to animate.

u can have only 1 anim anyway

i think some guys has made custom sword animations before, look around in the bayonet thread i think thats where it was.

katana is FAR too big

I'm not sure about that... Some katanas are really big, though this is obviously bigger than a normal katana. But katanas aren't that small.

Maybe a No Dachi?

Whatever, I'm intrigued by that bow even more, good job mate!

The sword's just out of proportion. The average katana's about three and a half to four feet long, with a blade that's about an inch across. The one in the picture looks like it's just as tall, if not taller than the soldier. Make it half the size and it'd look a lot better. If it was a no-dachi, it'd have a longer handle and blade about a foot or so longer, with a slightly more pronounced curve towards the tip.

It'd be great if it had proper animations, but the majority of common katana cuts are just as much about footwork as the blade. Might be a bit awkward to animate it and get it right, but if it was done, I for one would be really pleased about it.

As it was 9 months before the thread was dug up I guess we can assume there have been no updates, perhaps try waking up the author, if he's still working on it the thread can be resurrected
