I've run into some problems with a halfling rogue when useing the crossbow. Regular small crossbows works totally fine, no problem there at all. Masterwork crossbows work. The problem is with enchanted masterwork crossbows (+1 and later +2), when I try to equip them it gives me the msg that the weapon is too large for my halfling. Sometimes I could equip my +1 xbow after a little fiddeling around in the inventory and opening/closeing it some times. Now with the +2 i can't equip the xbow at all. Halfling rogue (lvl 5-6 first time i had my +1, now lvl 9) nonmagical crossbow = equips. unenchanted masterwork crossbows = equips enchanted masterwork crossbow +1 = can sometimes equip enchanted mastework crossbow +2 = can't equip at all Is the size of those xbows set wrong? Halflings should be able to use them, enchanting them does not make them "bigger" :roll: If anyone could test this also, and/or check the itemlist to see if their size is wrong i'd be really grateful. btw, I'm talking about the small/normal crossbow not the heavy/large one.
Using the JaDE editor and checking the relevant fields, Light Crossbows are under item code 4096 which gives size_medium, whereas Heavy Crossbows are under item code 4097 which gives size_large. However Masterwork Light Crossbows under item code 4177 are incorrectly coded as having size_large. Wonnilon's repeating crossbow +1 (item code 4130) which gives weapon type as light_crossbow also has its weapon type coded as size_large. Considering it once belonged to a gnome, this must have been at most size_medium for him to be able to use. I suppose you can try altering the code in the protos.tab file after saving the original file as backup somewhere else, but I will defer to the more experienced modders here for a better solution. EDIT: Was looking through other posts when I spotted this: http://www.co8.org/forum/showthread.php?threadid=296&perpage=30&pagenumber=3 Spats ran into the same problem I believe. Hopefully there will be a fix for it soon.
Thanks, nice to have confirmation. Not waiting for a patch my rogue started useing shortbows instead.
