says there is no way to add a ranged weapon if so then im kinda screwed with this hole thing so before i tri to much harder with this wanted to ask if any 1 knows a way to add guns to eclipse
thanks ahead of time for the help

You could always use eclipse stable but I do not recommend. It has range weapons. But it is not impossible just no one made a code for it.

Even telling them about Stable is a very bad idea. With knowledge and skill with vb6 it is possible.

You would basically need to (find someone who can) code the ranged weapon/firearms feature in.
It shouldn't be too difficult, but it could be awkward.
You can either learn VB6 yourself or find someone who will do it for you.

If you can't do any of that, you could do an idea that I just thought of, which is make a spell, and make it instantly damage the enemy, so it looks like your firing the gun/bow/projectile/whatever, but it goes so fast you can't see it

Yeah thats a good idea, you could also edit the source so that when you attack normally while holding a gun the damage will be applied to any enemy that is in the direction you are facing rather than just the block in front of you. A good gunshot sound and animation would make it look great.
