@zarockfaith - when making an "XAS weapon" you must:
- create an event on the TOOL map (study how the sword was made.)
- create the mini script for that tool in the Script database (F11)
- edit the ITEM and SKILL scripts according to the type of weapon
- configure your weapon in the Database (F9) under the Items / Weapons / Skills tabs.
starting off in XAS isn't easy... but once you get the hang of it,
you'll realize the many possibilities... grab a copy of Calvin's PDF.
it's very helpful, even for those who are at expert level.
