Modding:Weapon data

← Index

This page explains how the game stores and parses weapon data. This is an advanced guide for mod developers.

Raw data

Weapon sprites are in TileSheets\Weapons.xnb, and weapon data (parsed by the MeleeWeapon constructor) is in Data\Weapons.xnb. The files can be unpacked into a text file. Here's the raw data as of 1.3.36 for reference:
