I am using
cloneObject{
name = "super_machete",
baseObject = "machete",
uiName = "Super Machete",
attackPower = 12,
damageType = "shock",
description = "This machete radiates with strange energy.",
}
Put it in the lua file, and reloaded and a got an error, how can i make custom weapons using defualt sprites and 3d graphics, for minimal effort, and performance impact.

You do not use the correct definition format. In Log2 everything works with components. Have a look at the asset pack.
The definition of the original Machete looks like that:
Code: Select all
defineObject{
name = "machete",
baseObject = "base_item",
components = {
{
class = "Model",
model = "assets/models/items/machete.fbx",
},
{
class = "Item",
uiName = "Machete",
gfxIndex = 23,
impactSound = "impact_blade",
weight = 2.2,
traits = { "light_weapon", "sword" },
},
{
class = "MeleeAttack",
attackPower = 12,
accuracy = 0,
cooldown = 4.5,
swipe = "horizontal",
},
},
tags = { "weapon" },
}

I would like an explanation on why all this works, and how to find the asset pack to change weapons for myself.

Look up on this side. The menu-entry "Modding" leads you to a lot of informations about this - a link to the assets-pack, a scripting reference and so on...
Also have a look at Skuggasveinns Editor Tutorials about using the editor:

And have a look at the modding Superthread with Links to other helpful threads:

In the words of a stick figure comic that i once saw, "I am not a smart man"
Edit: I just spent 5 minutes clicking the title because I didn't notice the download button.
