Title: Diamond - What are the "tag" and "force" effects? Post by: skribs on April 22, 2017, 03:08:49 PM I've figured out most of the default effects in the font editor, but I'm not sure what "tag effect" and "force effect" are, or how they are triggered.

A "tag" is the sound that plays as you change the fonts so you know what each is. There is a multi-color effect that plays each time you change to the next font. I would suggest changing that to just the main blade color of the Font so it's easier to tell. Not sure why they gave each the same multi-color effect so you need to remember what color each font is. As for the Force, it's just that - when you make a certain Motion, I think the sound is meant to be like a "Force Push" or something. At least, that's what I'll be doing with it eventually. :) Hope that helps! Title: Re: Diamond - What are the "tag" and "force" effects?

If it goes off while actually using your saber normally, that means you somehow accidentally assigned that Effect to a different Motion. You'll need to test each one in the Configuration software and see which one it is. Title: Re: Diamond - What are the "tag" and "force" effects?

When Emory mentioned that he meant turning the hilt in the same way as a force effect is how you access the menu if you have the button held down when you do it.

In order to see/hear exactly what the tag effect is, please take a look here http://rsx.ro/tmp/menu_change_font.mp4 (http://rsx.ro/tmp/menu_change_font.mp4) and jump to 00:50 (you will hear 'Obsidian' as a font selection confirmation). As for the 'Force' effect, you can see it demonstrated here: http://rsx.ro/tmp/force.mp4 (http://rsx.ro/tmp/force.mp4) Cheers, Adrian |
