Just wondering. A while back I was able to slap down an arrow placeable for manipulation and use in a cutscene. In the latest version I see no arrow placeable available at all. (Only a very limited number of weapons...axe, longsword, trident, hammer.)
If I recall one of the developers once said that models could be made into placeables (as in BioWare only created placeables as needed.) Has anyone been able to create placeables from models?
Placeables...did these change in the last update?

emm im confused.. why is the placeables limited for you? I have real manny but havent seen an Arrow yet. How long was that ago, because the latest version is half a year old or something. Or arent you talking about the Toolset..

I'm talking about the toolset. In the global list of placeables there doesn't appear to be any weapons placeables in the palette. If I create my own placeable and scroll through the appearance list there is no arrow placeable. I know in the previous version of the toolset I had used an arrows placeable ina cutscene (physically manipulating it.) Now I can see no way to get an arrow placeable and slap it down.
Now I just thought of something, I believe I was doing this in the cutscene editor. Perhaps if i go into the area editor the placeable lists will be different?

dont think the placeables change at all between editors. If you want to make a model into a placeable, its not too tough and theres a tutorial that walks you through it (not checked this tutorial myself, but i have made placeables from models, so know the process is ok):

Ah yep that list is abit smaller. Weapon is there but no Arrow thou and i have the first Version? If you create a new placeable anyway, then it is realy easy to add some like.. if i remember correctly the only thing you need to do as well is a placeable 2DA with the modelfile and restart the Toolset.

The arrow placeable isn't on the Placeables list. There is however one, actually -- it's named "plc_arrow_01"
The way to get it in the cutscene editor is to right-click->Insert Proxy and then enter the item name in requester which pops up (or simply select it from the items presented in the requester).

Thanks tmp7704. I've always wondered what that proxy was for, just never had incentive to look into it.
