If you're looking to use an image type system, you can use my bodies pkg I sent you which will return the frame graphic of any currently known npc graphic you send it. I originally wrote it to replace WoD's tracking system, where all that crap had to be defined in each npcdesc file at the top becaus...

I compiled my code, and mind you the only reason I needed to have a hand crafted array was to test gump placement for stuff so I can see why this might not have been discovered sooner, after compiling, I looked through some bits of code to make sure everything was peachy and that I had not forgotten...

So not sure where to put this but since it is a friendly advisory I thought I might post, if you are using GetProcess and running the core version built on or after 08-21-2019, there is an issue with GetProcess, I will splain. var pid := CInt(GetObjProperty(mobile, "#TimerControlPID")); var process ...

I'll take a look at the files you sent me. Was busy over the weekend. I'm not sure how this class system works and in terms of actually writing something beyond a class system that's a no, I'm a scripter for another shard and I'm working on that to update a lot of it's many systems and skills while ...

So if you could tell me if you have a classes.inc file in /scripts/include/ in your main folder and could send me a copy of it I can compare the two to see if we are dealing with roughly the same class system here. I am certain it is but want to compare the differences. This is the shard I have foun...

I might have found exactly or something very close to what you're looking for in the forums, ironically posted by Harley so I can pkg this up for you tonight when I get home and you should be able to drop it in. I'd still suggest dropping the skill book OR instead of it being a dot command, have you...

Well I'm not really sure what's going on in that screen shot, I have seen a similar skill book in WoD or Sanctuary and those were I know for a fact always made available for public use. So there'd be no issues with using those,the issue being that for what you're looking to do I don't believe which ...

A minor necro as this is only a few months old. First WoD uses regionspawner for it's area spawner, so in there you have two commands, .regionspawn and .cc I am not too sure what cc does as I just briefly skimmed through the command but as someone who is working on a shard that is running WoD as it'...

Going to look at a couple bugs encountered and hopefully have an update soonly.

Need to finish up another minor rewrite I started before I jump back into here but that should be done easily tonight if I can figure out the issue I am having.

Probably most shards have bulletin boards, this however uses the packethook stuff to handle the bulletin boards, 0x71 . There are somethings that I might have been able to do differently and I consulted another emulator for some additional information I could not manage to find elsewhere. I did abou...

I'll post this here too, this is a very useful link to help you on the design aspects of a quest system. It describes the types of systems out there and their pros and cons as well as the types of quests.

The quest for the custom quest system

The link I posted is specifically because there appears to be more information there then the pol packet guide has, not sure if you looked at it Turley but I guess my question without really asking it was: Does or should the methods that work with this packet need to be updated with the new informat...

Not sure if this is at all useful to you but I have a good many if not all of the patch files up to 7.0.24.2: Patch Files Maybe more useful stuff? I have a good many of the older clients too if you are interested stored in my google drive: Clients up to 6.x something... It should be noted I did not ...

Well I recently looked into this packet and stumbled across a bit more information on this packet specifically, I am not sure how the packet is assembled in the core using the build in methods but the pol packet guide does not have as much information as is over here on this packet list site so it w...

First, just a general note, the squiggly lines while the general term for parenthesis, the squared things and the squiggly things I have been informed is braces for all three combined (at least that is what it is in the lexer I use and modified for escript as well as a C# book I am reading through),...

In terms of unused variable names: When it comes to escript, I can not tell you whether they are harmful. When it comes to auto removing unused variable names, there is no way to currently remove them other than going through each script 1 by 1, little by little. Most people I imagine ignore the unu...

Since many people have been asking, I've just chosen to publish it . There are two branches: the master works on POL093. The "untested" should work on POL096. If you make improvements, you are welcome to contribute back. I can assure you the 096 version works swimmingly, there is some cleanup invol...

At this rate, we can just combine all the "ListObjectsInBox" functions into a single function with an additional parameter of behavior :D, I am kidding of course. This would also be a nice function to have, I think we discussed this function not too long ago, the context of which if I am not mistake...

This would be a good, would make things a lot easier for doing certain things and can already think of at least one use for a function such as this.

You also have additional control of the decay system and specifically preventing items from decaying. With the CanDecay syshook, you can use a myriad of conditions from preventing an item from decaying when the trash collection rolls around. This is handy if for instance you want to have a static ho...

I know this is an old thread, but I wouldn't mind seeing someone write up a script package of XMLSpawner for POL. I think it would be a wonderful spawner system that would be easier to work with than what there is now. In terms of ease with XML spawner or a system like it for POL, I would say you m...

Hehe, cwo, I didn't even look because I know the shard the original op worked on uses this packet, as a long time player and now staffer.

I will say this about the storage area work around, the thing to remember is that if this method is used, your corpses will auto close when they are open if the player moves at all. As a player I would find this exceptionally annoying and more annoying than the corpse dressing itself. I intend to lo...

shard of my friend use old clients 2.0.0. 4.0.3 i didn't see any 0x9d at all from that clients not by server hook not by sniffer. is it old clients for that packet and if yes then from what client version 0x9d packet start sending to server? Bit of a necro eh? I will tell you regarding this packet,...

I'll if you are interested, sit down and see if I can come up with a non storage area solution, I have an idea how to but it will require a number of changes to your equip and unequip scripts as well as changes to your death and corpse on remove and on insert scripts and potentially others unless I ...
