How to make WHAT?
Even being an expert in rpg maker, i don't know what are you talking about.
Could you be a little more specific?

I think he said, "I just got RPG Maker XP and I can't figure out how to make the weapons I just created equippable, and I don't know what I'm doing. Any help?"

I've only used the PS and PS2 versions of RPG Maker, but I have a strong feeling he made his "weapons" regular items by mistake.

Oh that, well you see, it's like this.
When you start a new project you get a lot of pre-made weapons, screw them and leave them as they are, just press the 'Array size' button below that list of pre-made weapons, select a higher number. (default is around 90, set it to a higher number, let's say 91), now you'll get one empty space at the very low part of the weapons list, there you can make a new weapon, select the empty slot and pick 'Weapon' from the item selector list, name it as you want, set the item explanation, set the attack, the animation and the global settings of your weapon. (it all depends on how strong do you want to make it, wether you want it to be a special weapon that inflicts potential damage or any special status it's up to you)
And it's done, if you want to make more weapons, just put a higher number in the array size panel, wich will add more items in the list.

If that doesn't help you, then i'll make a quick movie on how it is done.

Wow now that i read the first post i made it didn't make any Sense lol sorry about that....

Thanks for the help i will see if it works!

[gartjack]

so i made the weapons so they almost copied the pre generated weapons except stuff like attack name description but in game it will still not let me use the weapons and I'm sure I'm making a wepond.....like i mean i can't equip them on the char..

Ok, first of all, here you go:

That is a video explanation made by me about the weapon thingy, just to make sure you get it the right way.
And about what you just posted, you have to make the character be able to equip the weapon, for that, select the weapon and give it to your character first, in order to do this, give it to him using some even in the map or something, i'm sure you know how to do that.

Next, open the properties panel and check the boxes of the characters you plan to make them use the weapon. If you don't get what i'm saying, i can make another video for you.

Woah, dude. Stop double posting! Anyways, the problem here is resolved, so methinks this should be locked.

Okay. In the meantime, gartjack, if you have any more questions about RPG Maker XP, just PM Mirak about it (or I can Fly! or whatever other name he decides to go by.) He knows what he's doing.
