New rideable animals.

Duskman · Post by **Duskman** » Tue Apr 04, 2006 12:20 am

Hi.
I've made some graphic for new mount (two - first, if player mounted, second - alone) and i've downloaded some animations from internet (polar bear and drake) - and maybe i'll write a post about one of them, polar bear.

So, polar bear original graphic is 0xD5 (from insideuo). Second animation, downloaded from internet, is: 0x1BB (from insideuo too). And i want to do this animal rideable.
I've typed this in tamed.src:

Code: Select all

0xd5: mounttype := 0x1BB;

next ecompile and pol.exe
And what we have here, .createnpc polar , polar bear has arrived, i;m making a 2xclick on it and... i'm on it, but there isn't any graphic of mount ! My player is flying with riding animamation...
What am i doing wrong? Maybe i need to type another mounttype number, but from where i need to get it? Please help...
/sorry for my english/
Here are some screens:

You need to create a mount item first.
E.g. create an item at 0x3f0f (if it's free). This item has to be wearable for layer 25 (mount) and must point to the ridable polar animation (gump entry).

Ater you've done that the line will be:

Code: Select all

0xd5: mounttype := 0x3f0f;

How do you set the layer?

There is a tool called paradise that lets you edit layer and other info for tiledata. I'll try to get it up for download in a few.

Here is the Paradise link:
www.hopelives.us/Files/Paradise.zip

Open the fileloc.cfg file and edit the locations of your mul files. Best if you copy the originals to a folder and modify the copies.

Paradise needs to have the numbers in decimal format. Use the Windows calculator in scientific mode or a conversion program to convert the hexadecimal (0x) numbers to decimal.

Ok well ive done all that and it still does not work

Ok well its that stupid program, You can't save the edited files..

You mean Paradise?

I don't understand because I use it all the time to edit and save the tiledata file. Make sure the file is not in use. Be sure the client is shut down and any other programs using the tiledata file and verdata file is closed.
