    Hi,

    Just wondering if it's at all possible to remove the jump animation of the Iron Mace Uniform Weapon? It's a great looking NX weapon but the jump animation (middle in image) is extremely annoying when fighting. Constantly jump-attacking is unbearable and makes it so a great looking weapon goes to waste.

    EDIT/REPLY: Considering we're divided, it'd be nice if we could somehow have the option of disabling jumping effects. For me personally, I love the effect in isolation but when jumping around killing mobs it looks very 'twitchy' for lack of a better word, especially when the animation is cancelled half-through when attacking. Also, when using weapons with jump effects if can be hard to see when jumping on little platforms.

    Many nx weapons have this issue of being overly flashy when jumping... Idk if they'll ever change it but i agree that this weapon is just too much. ~f12

    I would be all for removing those jump images with weapons. It just doesn't look good when it's just a single static image instead of an animation. (Idk how the rest of the staff feels about it, this is just my opinion.)

    It’s one of the important factors for me when choosing a NX weapon, for eg the feather pen has this blue wings thingy that looks great, so i think the jump animation should stay as it is. Of course if somehow it can be made into an option i’m all for it!

    How about having two separate version of the weapon? One has the visual effect, second one has the effect removed and call it metal mace.

    I don't want it to be cluttered and how would we distinguish which one is which, I'd be down for a reskin of it though.

    I bought it for the effect though

    I am okay if it is toned down, but would be sad if the jump animation is completely removed

    I think having an option to disable jump/attack effects of all nx weapon is a great idea! Those flashy effects are so annoying during jump quest.

    Doesn't sound very feasable, as it might require adding more code, which as far as i know, is not possible on a non-costume client.
    The only realistic solution is checking case by case of each nx and deciding if its too extreme or not. But from this thread i also see people who like these jump animations, so it will be unfair to just remove those or make them less flashy.

    Honestly, if I’m doing a Jump Quest I just remove any nx that gets in the way of me seeing the screen. Put it back on when you’re done.

    In the current Maplestory (GMS) they implemented a feature which added an extra button on the equipment screen.

    It basically allowed you to tweak the effects on certain equipment:
    • Once this feature is toggled, all equipment displaying visual effects will have a green highlight around their icon in the window.
    • You can right-click each item you want to turn off visual effects for, and their highlight will turn red in the Equipment Inventory window.
    • You can then exit the window and your changes will be saved.

    I don't know if it's possible to add this feature in this version but it would be a nice addition.

    It's not possible to toggle the effects on items, as there is just a single sprite for the jump animation. The image could be edited to remove the effect, but it would have to be either/or.
