Morrowind talk:Area Effect Arrows

Bows

This is all lies. None of these bows or other changes are added by the official plugin. Alphax 21:18, 9 February 2007 (EST)

Sorry, folks. It's not "lies" per se, but rather that some other mod installer has deemed fit to change this file instead of adding onto it as a good modder should. I suspect it may be the Marksman Mod, which adds a lot more marksman weapons, but I have no idea why it would feel the need to overwrite this official mod file instead of just adding onto it. Thing is, I did this all so long ago I've got no idea where anything came from. I'll fix this tomorrow. At any rate, except for the bows and non-marksman changes at the bottom, all of this article is accurate, I'm pretty sure. --TheRealLurlock ^Talk 23:17, 9 February 2007 (EST)

I'd have to check the dates to be sure, but I believe the Marksman mod was completed before the Area Effect Arrows mod was. I know that both mods contain the "enchanted arrows", though the particulars may vary. In any case, the Marksman mod contains a LOT of changes to different things and because of that is known to conflict with a lot of other mods. Which is unfortunate since at it's core, Marksman mod is great... bringing a whole "new system" of code for how to handle archery. Would probably be a good idea to look at the changes that mod makes and compare them to this entry overall. --WildKard 23:48, 9 February 2007 (EST)

I've removed the incorrect information. Until we can determine the source of the other version of this plug-in, I'm inclined to keep the old version, which I have preserved at Morrowind:Area Effect Arrows/Changed. It's possible that it is a common mod that is floating around or distributed somewhere as if it were the official one, so the information may still be valid for those who have found that version. Anyhow, the main page is now correct. --TheRealLurlock ^Talk 18:44, 10 February 2007 (EST)

As I've noted on Morrowind talk:Area Effect Arrows/Changed, it's definitely from the Marksman mod (or at least the last version of it, 1.46) - I've linked the old revision in my comment above to clarify what was going on. Alphax 16:56, 7 February 2008 (EST)
