I'm quite interested in seeing how the two-handed function will work as well. Is that a new sheet? Or, could you please explain that in more detail?

It wont be a new sheet. That wlould require a custom client, as the current client can only support the sprites that are there already.
I assume its just a variation of shield's but with some cool features.

The entire concept is just a little odd though. In no frame does the sprite use both hands, and the shield is just equipped, never actually used. I can understand how dual wielding works, as you just need to pixel the off-hand weapon where the shield would normally go, and assign it attack points rather than defense points. But a two-handed?
I just don't get it quite yet. A screenie of the feature in-use would be splendid.

Yeah, the quest actions are kinda limited right now, there's not much you can do to affect the player yet. Hoping to cover everything by 0.6.1.

There's no graphical indication of a two-handed weapon, it's just a feature that came along with the dual-wield system, and something that EOSEP and the EOSEP pub editor has had listed for a long time. The one duel-wield weapon I tested with did look pretty silly not attacking, but maybe someone's custom client one day will add two-handed stances and attack animations.

Is it possible to see a small little video or a screenie of both attack and non? I'd love to see it in action. (I'm a weaponaholic. c:)

You need at least one Quest-type NPC with a vendor ID of 1 ("Quest Script" in EditPub).

I did that may it have something to do with the way my file saved such as i saved it as .eqf but it is still considered a text document

@stealthy. if this is the first time adding a quest file, you have to set a npc"monster" with a quest id number, and in your quest it will point to what ever npc you want in the next state.

@sausage im finding this rev to be bad ass so far.

the error log with quest errors helps alot with changeng from my old rev to this.

if we find any bugs should we post them here or somewhere or a simple pm?

Look at the end of the action lines, you forgot to close most of them;

action AddNpcText(1, "Look over there. That's Focus Tower, once the heart of the world.");
    action AddNpcText(1, "An old prophecy says, ''The vile 4 will steal the power, and divide the world behind 4 doors.");
    action AddNpcText(1, "At that time the knight will appear.'' The prophecy has come true.");
    action AddNpcText(1, "4 monsters have locked the doors of the Focus Tower and escaped with the keys.");
    action AddNpcText(1, "They're draining the light from the 4 crystals of the earth, and the world is in chaos. The people are in desperate need of help");
    action AddNpcText(1, "Only you can save the crystals and the world.");
    action AddNpcInput(1, 1, "Me?");
    action AddNpcText(1, "Yes you! Only you could be the knight spoken of in the prophecy...");
