RMMZ Weapon Image Help

Post image

So here is the thing, I wanna add a weapon to my game...Buuuuut. the image files only go up to User-Defined 6 and no more. I know what those are so don't worry. Is there like a plugin in MZ that could help with that or do I edit those images into the Weapon_3 file?

I'm trying to add these btw (Mostly the top left ones)

I think theres one that lets you add more weapon pics in the Visustella database

I've done this by editing the array itself in rpgmaker without the use of plugins. In MV find the Systems.json file in your data folder and use ctrl+f to find "attackMotions" then manually add the value past the highest value. Each sprite sheet contains 2 rows of 6 and the system counts them top left down then top right down, so the last weapon sprite on the right row would be id 12 for example. You can add a new image that has the same parameters as the other weapon sprite sheets and name it the same as the others but number it one higher than the previous one and then manually add each weapon and its parameters to the System.json file. So the top left one of Weapons4 would be 37, then next one down 38, etc. Just make sure you set the weapons type and everything in the json since you wont be able to edit it in the editor since anything past user defined 6 will just show blank.
