Exceptional weapon damage issues?

[LordHogFred]

I am trying to alter the weapon damage that exceptional weapons recieve to 15%.
I have changed the code to the following:

	      
                    //if ( Attributes.WeaponDamage > 35 )
		    //Attributes.WeaponDamage -= 20;
		    //else
                    //Attributes.WeaponDamage = 15;

                    #region New Code
                    Attributes.WeaponDamage = 15;
                    #endregion

However upon crafting a weapon it recieves 41% damage increase .
I remember running into this issue before but I cannot remember for the life of me where the incriminating code is.

Any ideas?

Thanks ,

you must be using a runic tool for crafting with

just use a regular tool for crafdting with

Can't be, no runic tools even exist on my shard atm it's a fresh server.

then i do not know how you are getting bonus weapon damage (like the 41%) unless you have modified some other files to produce weapon damage

I ran across this problem last year also ... if I remember correctly the same code appears in CraftItem.cs and BaseWeapon.cs and you need to change both files...

.... perhaps

... and isn't there something about a bonus being applied if the smith is GM somewhere too? Again if memory serves a non GM smith makes +20 exceptional weps where a GM one makes +35?

[Lord_Greywolf]

it is gm of armslore bonus you are thinking about
15% & 20% are the 2 diffferent bonuses (exceptional and armslore)
at least they USED to be
I had to manualy put them back in for them to show up correctly
not sure when they where lost in code - could have been distro change or maybe a package i put in long long ago, but the bonus went poof

but for the Exceptional bonus damage - anyways it is NOT shown on the weapons display - it is only figured out when the weapon actualy hits and is calculating damage

[Bujinsho]

hrrrm .... could be ... I'm still trying to remember what the hell I was up to last year *grins* I can hardly remember why I was doing some things, never mind how

Still .... on my shard I have this code ....

if ( quality == 2 )
{
	//if ( weapon.Attributes.WeaponDamage > 35 )
	//	weapon.Attributes.WeaponDamage -= 20;
	//else
		weapon.Attributes.WeaponDamage += 5;
}

.... in both Craft Item.cs and Base Weapon.cs and a gm smith always creates a +10% exceptional weapon (when using iron). Obviously the weapons are starting at 0% bonus so why the commented out check for values greater than 35 was there in the first place, I couldn't say.

Perhaps the bonus for resource used is calculated first and thats where the problem lies?

[Lord_Greywolf]

those are from if it was made with a runic tool and had the bonuses added that way

osi believed you should loose your bonuses from skill if using a runic tool
(i modified those sections 2 years ago lol - i believe runic is bonuses to your skill)
