I'm currently working on a project to give all sword characters (in Project M) infinite sword glow. To do this I have a terminate glow command followed by a sword glow command on Wait1, then I removed all sword glow and terminate commands from other moves. I have finished Ike and Marth, and I am currently working on Link, Toon Link, Metaknight, and Roy.
Link and Toon Link are 90% done but I am having trouble with neutral special and side special. Those attacks are arrow and boomerang respectively and they were a bit troublesome to do because I had to have an asynchronous timer (as he puts sword away to pull out bow/boomerang) then a terminate glow as he fires the bow/throws boomerang, then another asynchronous timer as the projectile is out, and finally a sword glow when he pulls his sword back out again. It all worked out, however if he is interrupted during his neutral special and side special, the glow will go away until he returns to Wait1. How can I fix this? I assume I need to put a terminate glow + sword glow in the animation where he is being damaged, but I can't find where that is. I tried putting it in DamageFall but that didn't work.
As for Metaknight, everything is working except for his down air. I guess in Project M the sword glow is coded for his Brawl animation as the sword glow appears to be going up while his sword is going down. To fix this I believe I need to use XYZ rotation/offset but I'm not sure as to what values I should try to use.
Finally with Roy, his situation is different as he has multiple sword glows (he uses Saki's trace). I did the usual terminate + sword glow on Wait1 but removing all of the sword glows will result in up special not having the trace. My idea was to set GraphicID to 0 so that there is only the trace, not the glow, but I don't think I can use the terminate glow after that while still having the sword glow? How would I terminate the trace after the up special is finished while retaining sword glow?
Any help on any of this would be very much appreciated. Thanks.
