[Help] changing drop rates inside monster.csv. I'm confused....

[jpxtreme]

I'm confused on how to modify monsters drop rate inside the monster.csv.

I've read a guide somewhere that you need to change itemsetdropratio_x but when I try to make the values to 100 it didn't work. I tried to experiment it to 100000 but also didn't work.

Janvier123's monster.csv rates are too high for me. Although using his makes drop ratio very high. How did he do that?

I need to know what values affects the drop ratio. Could some one please explain because I'm confuse right now.

I'm planning to make drop rates including argates drop about 50%. Please help.

Uff, here we go.


Drop rate is affected by:

Monster.csv. Yep, it's itemsetdropratio. 100000 is 100% chance of getting the item x.
formula.ini. fMonItemDropRatio. Default is 1.0
itemset.csv. You can set drop chance for every item in the set.


Here's an example. So you want to make a monster drop argates. You will have to find the correct itemset, which contains argates (4075). So in ItemSetIndex_X you put the index 4075 and itemsetdropratio_x you set to 50000 (Monster.csv file).

100000 - 100% chance
50000 - 50% chance
1000 - 1% chance

the files i used my itemsetdropratio worked differently.
i had to put 1-100 for 1%-100%.

also remember to edit monster file in both creature and monster folder.

There is just one monster.csv file, and it's in creature folder.

You should seriously consider cleaning your client.

Share folder shouldn't even have monster folder.


Get different server files.

doesnt really matter to me either way as long as it works and is stable.

do I also need to adjust fMonItemDropRatio to 100? can you give me a share files that has 50% rates on drops (equips/argates). Thanks!
