[Tutorial] Changing NPC appearances

02/06/2010 23:02 Mr_Troy22#1
Ever wanted to change a mob or boss it's appearance(Especially for the Wrath of Centaur cave) to gain an advantage in hunting Vengeful Centaurs (Aeriagames)? Than I have news for you , I have decided to post a tutorial about this because many people have asked me to altho those people were lurkers.

Things you can do with changing appearance of a NPC :
1. Changing the NPC in a stone which makes them unable to attack you
^^ Godmode , but it still has that 15 seconds delay if you don't have a bypass for that. But it works well for bosses << this method is also way faster as the address is very easy to find
2. Changing NPC's appearances for hunting for example in the Wrath of Centaur Cave
3. Making mobs look cool if you find them ugly.

Now to the business: (I'm using Vengeful Centaur as an example)

Step 1 -------------------------
Find the mob's / boss' name just like on Godmode and right click the address to move to that memory region

Step 2 -------------------------
Press the arrow down button once (of the scrollbar) and look at the most left byte. (+ at the bottom line) , for Vengeful Centaur you will see 36 or 54 (depends on which view you are , 1 byte or 4 bytes). That is the appearance code , it has the same location on ever NPC

Step 3 -------------------------
Right click on that byte (in 1 Byte view) and add it to your Address list

Step 4 -------------------------
Change it to whatever number from 1 to 130 and freeze it

Known appearance codes:
1 = Monks from the first map
2 = Goblinkin mobs from the first map
79 = Royal Lion
99 = Sacred Blood Lord
104 = Big horned boss
111 = Holy Stone

You'll have to experiment with the codes yourself to find them all out.


And an extra tutorial for the lovers :

Drop name hack! (Take anyone else's drop if you changed the value to their name)

Step 1
Search for your current character name

Step 2
Try the 3 static addresses (change it to a random name and drop something (FREEZE the ADDRESS) and try to pick it up , if you cant than you have the right address)

Step 3
Enjoy it! (It works quite slow but U might find out a way on getting a name from chat input or getting names from people near you(fast))

^^ the three static addresses start with 00F

Nice tut dude :)
Here is a list of all the MOB id's that I have pulled for the private server.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

The id's are not the same as display id's however as these are only the id of the monster. You can see it a little bit in hex view before its name :)

The Display is a 4 byte integer not a 1byte I Belive.

BTW I was checking out the mob structure section in memory view to make the image below and I may have found a new way to do god mode that works forever without getting diced :) It will require a code inject to cmp for the monster you want to get god mode on and JMP over code however. *not global god mode just makes a monster not reteliate at all :P* and its not setting range to 0 either :D

There are even bytes here that you can change to make mob's run faster or slower. Or even not move at all *handy when you wanna count them all providing no one kills them*

They might have patched it on Twelve Sky 2 , I come from Twelve Sky 1. And I tested it with my own items.

Heres a fast way to change mobs, in CE search mob name the first name in the list that starts with 07 select that address now add F0 to it and you got your mob apperance address and I have found mobs as high as 274 not just to 130. Note there is some gaps that when you change the number there will be no apperance.

At one point last year I wanted to make a bot that turned all mobs into a unique looking mob so that the pixel bot would be super accurate.
10/13/2010 03:55 Mega Byte#11
An interesting idea :) Still prefer memory and defiantly packet over pixel however :D but it would be cool to see it pulled off.
10/14/2010 05:59 strikeraid#12
Yea, got the idea from 2moons. Some dude turned all the mobs SUPER PINK so they stood out like crazy. The bot was a success. But I know what you mean. Memory n packets are way more dependable n accurate.

i do everything ok but i get stuck at step 3. idk what to change. i added the address and changed the value to 130, but that only makes mob's name to change to . what do i have to change? pls help. ty

Re read the instructions and understand how address work they are in hex so you need to convert to decimal or hex etc.
