.xml mod... well well...

First things first:
Do you want to make a graphical or technical mod?
Most xml effects are stored in a sub called effects or something...
gfx/fx/effects

If you want to make some functional mods I must disappoint you, nexon is moving most of the functions into dll's. There were hacks regarding those modifications which were mostly private. But as far as I can tell most of them are patched already.

The files are still located in the sup /db/ but at different spots so you gotta search really.

quest-less pally is "wunschdenken".
Obviously Server-Sided functions are impossible to hack. And since nexon is moving most of the stuff to dll's or server, xml hacking got mostly useless.

Good news is they won't move much of the previously data handled stuff to the server, since every function call that has to be synced with the host costs traffic and causes lag. They will have to leave it client sided, brobably stored in Dll's.

EDIT:
you mentioned Microshit Excell...
Please, lets stay serious in this forum.
Use Notepad++

Yea... I made it.
(somebody else released it tho)
Also the infinite Ressurection range mod.
The item hack mods were all xml based... also some other skill hacks were like that. -> almost everything patched.

Nothing else will work like this, don't worry, I tried everything.

totally free, totally awesome.
I'd recommend Hex plugin and Lua plugin to use with it. (well if you like coding Lua... but hex is a must)

If youre looking for the xml with data I'd say you have to unpack the biggest .pack file.
Best way is to download the whole client so you get everything neatly packed into ONE .pack-file. And then like you mentioned for the tiara bs..*sigh* in /data/db/ just look into all the folders, you'll find interesting things....

Of course its possible.

Well thats what I wanna see...

If DeadlyData can do it, we can do it.

But lets emphasize at a Bypass first, we gotta build a Ship until we set sail...

Some people don't know what they're talking about.

Do you have any idea of what DD does?
I doubt that, because if you would, they would pathetically miss their purpose.

I have no respect left for them, because for what they do, they take too much fame.
Like your average boygroup....

Besides you're blowing this out of proportions, we don't want to do anything here that would break the law.

I wanna make sure everyone read that.

Any illegal stuff here is going to be deleted and the Poster infracted/banned.

I also think that TD and most of all DD are going way too far. But hey, they show what they can.
Its not our problem if they go to jail.

DeadlyData and TheDefaced are doing stuff that is out of your imagination.

No matter how well you know C++, I don't think you will ever become as good as him.

-sudden bump-

been a while, couldn't really change a lot >.< AP cost changes are only client side, so it shows like "0 AP needed, you have 7 AP" and you can't advance till you have the 10 needed

i wanted to ask you tho, any way to monitor packets and/or alter DLL files? google didnt come up with much Q~Q

also, i think i understand how the item modifier mod worked, and im trying that out now too.

>.< i'm sorry for burdening you with all these questions, its actually my fist time doing this myself instead of just leeching, trying to give the nice people something back.

edit 1: awwww :< the item modifier mod has been patched, it was working too DX. ah well, at least i have fireball and thunder now ^^
