Sword Lunging Problems

Hey, Im trying to make the sword lunge super far like it use to before all the patches came out. I took them off, and i lunge across the map and stabs someone in the face, but when i put the updates back on, it just lunges like 1 ft then stops and i need to keep on lunging...does anyone know how to fix this?

maybe the patches rely on tag names, try renaming the sword.

no, the sword modded does work, but only from a limited "extra" distance...I dont see what renaming it would do...

say the patch opens a map, loads all the tags into memory, searches for a tag named /blah/blah/blah/energy_sword finds its meta data, and rewrites it with some preset values. what happens if it doesnt find it?it either crashes, adds a new tag, or return a failure and keeps loading.

Just a wild guess though.

Actually it'll probably wont work now that I think more about it.... because It might search for the Tag ID or something similar to that
