Well you have to script and you have to make your model with somthing that has a torque exporter. This video will help!

Modeler to make the model with is Milkshape download it here

Also when you are done go to in Milkshape then say
file\export\Tourque Game Engine\---Then put that file in Blockland\Add-ons\shapes\---after that download these example scripts and just follow the <YOURWEAPONNAME>
by the export saved name... and save the script when all the <YOURWEAPONNAME> things are gone and replaced with the saved export. finely save the script into blockland\add-ons\� save it as .cs

This is how I started

Here are the Example files for <YOURWEAPONNAME> thing

That does not substitute not knowing english.

To make a .dts, you'll wanna use a modelling program, such as Milkshape3D.

Orly, admitting that you are a n00b doesn't help you very much.

weapon tutorial tutorial

You require a tutorial on how to write weapon tutorials?

First, export the model you have made (I can't help you with that) as a DTS model. Put this model in your Add-Ons/shapes folder.
Since it's a staff, download Azerath's mêlée weapon script. Save it in your Add-Ons folder as Weapon_Staff.cs.
Open the file in Notepad or any plain text editor. (Not Microsoft Word, that adds random characters to the file for its format). Use Find and Replace to replace "<YOURWEAPONNAME>" with "Staff".
Change the filename parts of the sounds at the top of the file if you want a different sound instead of the sword draw/chop sounds.
Save the file. Start Blockland and enable your weapon in the Add-Ons menu.
Try changing random values in the file for things like the light colour/radius in the Explosion, the textureName and lifetime of the particles, etc. to see how they affect it in-game. Restart the game after saving the file with these new settings to see what it looks like. Alternately, open the console and type:

Code: [Select]

exec("Add-Ons/Weapon_Staff.cs");to reload these settings for you. Other people in your server will not see these changes until they rejoin, however.
