Latest release (for outdated Vintage Story v1.20.0-pre - v1.20.6):
GlowingArrows-1.2.2.zip  1-click install


Make your arrows (and other projectiles) glow so they are easier to find (even in the daylight).

Features:

  • Works on client side only (does not need to be installed on server)
  • Works on both single and multiplayer modes
  • Works with all vanilla and modded projectiles
  • Works even if the projectiles were unloaded (respawn/log off/etc)

Enjoy! ^_^

This mod and freedom units work perfectly fine on game versions above 1.18 SonarTheSynth

You are probably just seeing the false warning in the client's modlist telling you the mods are out of date. This is false because the mods minimum version is 1.18, so games above that see this setting and assume it is outdated. I assure you they are not ;)

For future reference click on the "Files" tab at the top of this page and you will see the "For Game version" for each release. This is the most accurate compatibility list, not what the client is trying (and failing) to tell you.

This mod is helpful--thanks for making it!

I was also thinking it would be very helpful to make arrows emit particles--that way, you can even find them in the snow. What do you think BillyGalbreath

💬 SonarTheSynth, Feb 26th at 1:47 PM

uld be nice if this and dreedom units actually worked on Game Versions above 1.18

Very nice mod, thank you for sharing.

I just noticed that bowtorns projects also glow.  Makes it easier to see where they shot from.

Thank you, I'm losing a lot less arrows now! I knew my eyesight wasn't the best, but I've been losing so many arrows that I almost gave up on using them.

@BillyGalbreath You are terribly wrong!  You built this for me, and every other player with visual issues.  The visually impared community is recieving massive support just by using your mod.

It is true that you owe us nothing, we definately owe you!

Thank you so very much!  😂

perhaps it would be worth leaving glowing trails on arrow tails and spears, like on knives in Metro. I think it would be more VS game like feature than a fully glowing item.

Thanks for the report DiZek ^_^ It has been fixed in version 1.2.2

💬 DiZek, Mar 16th 2024 at 6:55 AM

Thanks for this mod, it's a real nice QoL thing.


Do want to report that unfortunately it has a compatability issue with the mod Rustbound Magic, because that mod uses custom projectiles for spells.

It will crash the game immediately when paired with this mod, here is the Pastebin if you were curious. https://pastebin.com/XRuMHcZG

I don't intend this as an ask to fix or mitigate this issue, only to spread awareness that it is incompatible!

I'm glad we were able to get your mod up to par! \o/ I have updated this mod's description.

However, since there are still some differences between our mods I will be maintaining and leaving this up so my friends and I can access it. ^_^

💬 DanaCraluminum, Sep 2nd 2023 at 4:31 AM

My mod is also purely client side and works on both single and multiplayer, I tested on both dedicated and official public test servers, my mod works exactly the same as yours

💬 Kara, Sep 1st 2023 at 2:37 AM
