Finding script/npc dir

[BTNX]

What's the fastest/easiest way to find out the dir or file.txt that holds the script of an NPC...

Lets say, I want to edit Kafra1 in prontera, how do I find out which file to edit?

You can search the npc folder with a (built-in) search function of your operating system that supports searching text in files. That's the normal search for Windows or 

grep -n "search string" npc/*

for Linux.

notepad++ can help you too .... 

 

 

 

 

the window search option also can search for file name ..but not sure if you plan to search for the content inside the file..

I use BareGrep on Windows as it's countless times faster than the Windows search bar.

Wow great program. I use TSearch and WinGrep but I think Euphy's option might be faster.

Grep is amazinggg and lets you choose extensions to check in as well

^Thanks for the reply guys... The thing is, sometimes, multiple NPCs are stored in one text files... Meaning, I'd have to also search the content of the files in order to find the NPC...

Anyway, yeah, I know about windows search... I'm just trying to find the most efficient way to figure out which text file contains the scrip and such.

Let's say you want to edit the first default NPC you encounter in the novice training area but you don't know the DIR of that NPC, how do you guys go about finding the script?

Ima go try baregrep and wingrep in a bit
