[VX] Smithing -- Simply Upgrade Your Weapon

[Richter_h]

Smithing -- Simply Upgrade Your Weapon version 1.0
Version: 1.0
Author: richter_h
Date: June 5th, 2013

Version History

• <Version 1.0> 2013.06.05 - Original Release

Planned Future Versions

• Socketing feature; Weapon will inherit the socketables, a la Diablo or maybe a la Suikoden as well.

Description

Ever played Suikoden? That game has some blacksmithes that provide weapon upgrades and (maybe later) some enchantments, making your fights would be easier than using a simple stick to the brawl.
And based on that reason, I made this script.

Features

• Add parameter in every weapon's level. So you can add some ATKs in first levels, then add it more PLUS some SPI. Just for your pleasure.
• Change your favorite weapon's name from simple "Longsword" into "Longersword", "Cloudcleaver", or "Titan's Toothpick" or even "Sword of the Dark Flame Master"? No problem. You can set weapon's name in every level as you want.
• Changeable weapon's icon as you desire.
• Change weapon's description (and whatever the Longsword's description when upgraded is at your hand.)
• The blacksmith can has lines to speak! It's highly customizable as you want, however, only one kind of quote lines could be added; A generic quote would work.

hey man it is a really nice script I needed this for a long time now what I need to know is if there's any way to activate a switch when a weapon evolves ( changes icon and name ) so that we could add special effects like new skills to the player when the weapon is a high enough level? :O
