increasing item_db limit

[Saisho]

i was reading this topic but i dont got this part

and

uint16 type of nameid in struct item_data should be redeclared a wide range of type

can someone plz explain?

the rest if i understand is just change this line in the itemdb.h and recompile...

#define MAX_ITEMDB 0x8000

[michaelsoftman]

In itemdb.h, there's a line that says this, inside of struct item_data

uint16 nameid;

You need to change nameid from uint16 to a variable type that can hold a larger number total.

And then change this

#define MAX_ITEMDB 0x8000

to this

#define MAX_ITEMDB 0x10000

thx for the reply

You need to change nameid from uint16 to a variable type that can hold a larger number total.

but what kind of variable?

i changed to uint32 and tested, the item shows in the @ii but cant get it w/ @item.

what else can i do to extend the db to over 40k?
