..it's either me; meaning i dont know how to use the feature,or maybe the precise weapon placement feature in the nightly build does not work correctly.
..and oh,midis are not playing too. |

I have the same problem, and it has been bothering me for quite awhile now.
The Quest 64 character looks good with his Japanese-style (called Scimitar in-game. I drew it like a katana without thinking so I will have to change that too. >_<)
But Marcellus uses a floating Rapier (another poorly drawn weapon which I actually had a better version before, but drew it like this in hopes to adjust positioning.)

(.GIF quality, as to lower file size. Quality isn't an issue anyhow. NOTE: I accidently re-pasted the "0>" image for the Rapier, but the values for <1 are the SAME.)
As you can see, you would think that he would stab with that rather thick looking rapier. Nope. It floats on either side of him for no apparent reason. I am trying to figure out how to fix this. |

Are you using the "Dash In" attacker animation? If so, the weapon placement will *NEVER* be right no matter what, and it will even vary from target to target (we will fix this eventually, but it requires a lot of code cleanup)
If precise weapon placement is failing on any other attacker animation type, let me know. |

It is definately not working for this character when set to the normal strike.
In fact, I switched the weapon to the Scimitar, and it works perfectly. It even looks better than the other hero's because the Scimitar will be behind him on the first frame.
I will try and find some way to record what the actual in-game animation looks like for the Rapier.
EDIT: Done and done. I have never seen a Rapier work like that before.
If it helps, Rapier is Item slot #2.

| I have suffered under the same problem for a while now. No matter what I set the weapon position to, it's always floating in the air a foot away from the guy's arm. |
