[REQUEST] Create Magic weapon

I want to create a sword that can also be used as an item, and what happens when you use it as an item is a magic fire spell is cast.  Only problem is how do i do this and by default when you use an item it disappears after use, how can i resolve this issue?
Thanks for your help,
~Ryu

You will need to have some kind of script for that. And, the other question was answered in your other topic but you set consumable to NO

EDIT::
Also, it would be possible to do the first through events - BUT, anybody could use the item :/ Which doesn't make any sense unless your guys are cocnstantly throwing each other a flaming sword.

I'm a noob at scripting, I just started to read the help file from rmxp about scripting so I'm still in the process of learning how to script.  Could someone please write this script for me or tell me where i can find such a script which will allow a weapon to be used as an item that casts a fire spell.

Are you sure you want it to show up as an item? Why not a skill?

Moved to script requests, please adhere to the script request forum rules within 24 hours.

<<yes, i searched>>

Where did you search?

P.S. Falcon, is this what u meant by "please adhere to the script request forum rules within 24 hours."
Please disregard anything i said in the previous posts, I only want it to appear as a weapon and i no longer want the weapon to be used as an item effect.  This might sound confusing so please just tell me if it is and I'll try to explain it better.

I think I will put that in my scriptlets too :<

EDIT:: Tell me if anything goes wrong :O)

Well done modern!

If Modern's doesn't work, I believe Sepiroth Spawn made one like that.

Thanks 


There's one problem with it right now ryuu, and that is that unequipping the weapon will always make the actor forget the skill, even if he had the skill through natural means (i.e. got it from something besides the weapon). Is that going to be a problem for you? If it is, the problem is fixed by this other version:

Thanks modern for your help and ill check out the other version your talking about and see how it goes.

Modern your scripting skills are awesome. Thanks for your script it works perfectly.
