Custom Mobs looking like a Player

[Rikimaru]

Dear rAthena Board,

I just found this article on the wiki : http://rathena.org/wiki/Custom_Mobs#A_mob_looking_like_a_player

Now I'm not sure if there is still the possibility to Create Custom Mobs looking like a Player in the Database.I thought,that there isn't the possibility to create a Custom Mob like that,or did I get something wrong?

If I got it wrong and it is possible to do this,then how do we create a Mob,which looks like a Player,because I'd add a little description on how to do this and add iit to the article.

Thank you!

Yours,

~Rikimaru

I remember rewriting this article on eA but it was lost in the rollback. x.x

I have lots of custom mobs that look like players. When used as guardians they show the guild emblem above there head. Mob_avail doesn't work for them because of changes to the clients with out adding some stuff. Using mob_avail alone will just cause sprite errors.

The picture is not a clone its one of my custom mercensaries. I have them for basically every class.

I'm not completely sure if any new clients will support this without adding files. I did get them to work for the rAthena client. I created them back in 2007 to work as custom mercensaries because the game mercensaries didn't work... For you to try to add them might be a nightmare. It is one of many unique features that I have managed to discover along the way, lol. I have custom mercs on most maps and I have had players confuse them with actual players, you can right click on them and get all the same options. However, if you try to add them as a friend or anything it says player not found.
