[Help]Adding Custom Items to private server.

03/18/2008 13:25 funhacker#1
I am wondering what I have done wrong and if anyone can point it out for me.

Firstly im trying to add numerous amount of items including gear pets and casuals but my test is just 1 casual, a modified version of obsidianmail.

Firstly what I done was make a new texture for it, gave it the name 001190600.dds [190600 is the id in the server itemtype original id for obimail is 1190400] I then copied past and renamed the .c3 in mesh folder of the client for the obimail. Then added it to the cq_itemtype and cq_goods, I then went ahead and edited the clients itemtype.dat by copying and pasting [by increasing the file size] the hex for obimail and changing its id to 190600, I didnt bother making mapitem icons or invent item icons for it as i know u dont need them for it to work, I am curious as to if I have missed any other client sided file.

side note I know i have the item in my inventory as it says so in cq_item problem is it isnt seeing it on the client is their some kind of id range i have to edit on the soul.exe or somewhere else for it to be read?...

you need to edit some inifiles in /ini folder of client as well

:D

dont ask me which one though cuz i dont have the names in my head :D
this is basically the steps u need to do:
1. add new itemtype in database in cq_itemtype
2. add the same id to itemtype.dat (hexedit)
3. make new dds,c3 files with same itemtypeid as the item u added
4. add the new items in the corresponding inifiles in the client

(adding it to cq_goods is only needed if you want to add the item to a npc but not necessary if you want to test it with /awarditem command)

but we know the answer now!! :D tome to answer !!

Well, if they add "new" items.... than he needs to add it all intro

3dtexture.ini , 3dobj.ini , armor.ini, ItemMinIcon.ANI and MapItemIcon.ANI


and best is to make map icon and item icon the same time and edit all in 1 :rolleyes:

also cq_goods is not for the npc but for the shopping mall :D


Maybe this is a "old" topic coming back ... but that doesn't mean i may not answer this .. so .. :bandit: do not start flaming to me :bandit:
