How to add npc Sprites?

[nobukadnezar]

i know this is some kind a basic question but i can't find any guide about it, How do we add new npc sprite?

i have the sprites but don't know the steps to do on client side and server side.

thank you.

First of all put the .spr and .act in data/sprite/npc/

Then go to lua files/datainfo/jobname.lua

Let's consider you have for example f_npcname.spr and .act

Then at the end add:

   [jobtbl.JT_f_npcname] = "f_npcname",

Then open lua files/datainfo/npcidentity.lua and add at the end:

   ["JT_f_npcname"] = 658,

Why 658? Well there's a gap between 658 and 699 so that way you wont need to replace another npc with your custom one. But still, the ID is up to you, wether you want to replace another one or not, it's fine as long as the ID doesn't go over 999.

And that's all, if you've done all that then #658 will be your new npc.

[Deimler]

Use lua-> lub converter or people say to change the extension but i havent tried that.

So just a quick question, where can I check which ID's for NPC's are Free?
