Request Costume NPC

[boosack20]

Hi,

 

I want a NPC that convert your sprite into others. More like a costume or any other headgears.

 

Sample would be my valkryie helm then using the costume to turn apple o' archer..

 

Thanks.

read the quote below.. you can add this on NPCs and item scripts..

 

in your case for example, you can add the setlook/changelook function in the OnEquip area of the Valkyrie Helm entry in item_db into Apple o' Archer

 

5171,Valkyrie_Helm,Valkyrie Helm,5,100000,,1000,,5,,1,0xFFFFFFFE,2,2,256,,0,1,225,{ setlook 4,72; bonus bMdef,5; if(isequipped(2357,2421,2524)) bonus bAllStats,1; },{},{}

 

You can also work on it via client side, if you're going to add more items, just copy the resource data(idnum2itemdesctable, itemresnametable, etc.) then change the sprite ID in the item db, that way it would look like a Valkyrie Helm in your inventory but it would display AoA when equipped.

 

 

*setlook <look type>,<look value>;

*changelook <look type>,<look value>;

 

'setlook' will alter the look data for the invoking character. It is used 

mainly for changing the palette used on hair and clothes: you specify which look 

type you want to change, then the palette you want to use. Make sure you specify 

a palette number that exists/is usable by the client you use.

'changelook' works the same, but is only client side (it doesn't save the look value).

 

    // This will change your hair(6), so that it uses palette 8, what ever your 

    // palette 8 is, your hair will use that color

 

    setlook 6,8;

 

    // This will change your clothes(7), so they are using palette 1, whatever 

    // your palette 1 is, your clothes will then use that set of colors.

    

    setlook 7,1;

 

Here are the possible look types:

 

 0 - Base sprite

 1 - Hairstyle

 2 - Weapon

 3 - Head bottom

 4 - Head top

 5 - Head mid

 6 - Hair color

 7 - Clothes color

 8 - Shield

 9 - Shoes

 

Whatever 'shoes' means is anyone's guess, ask Gravity - the client does nothing 

with this value. It still wants it from the server though, so it is kept, but 

normally doesn't do a thing.

 

Only the look data for hairstyle, hair color and clothes color are saved to the 

char server's database and will persist. The rest freely change as the character 

puts on and removes equipment, changes maps, logs in and out and otherwise you 

should not expect to set them. In fact, messing with them is generally 

hazardous, do it at your own risk, it is not tested what will this actually do -

it won't cause database corruption and probably won't cause a server crash, but 

it's easy to crash the client with just about anything unusual.

 

However, it might be an easy way to quickly check for empty view IDs for 

sprites, which is essential for making custom headgear. 

 

Since a lot of people have different palettes for hair and clothes, it's 

impossible to tell you what all the color numbers are. If you want a serious 

example, there is a Stylist script inside the default rAthena installation that 

you can look at: 'npc/custom/stylist.txt'

Is this even possible?? I wanna know if this possible cuz i want to have this script!

[boosack20]

There is another topic that have costume npc which turns your items to another.. but his npc removes the cards, refine and so on.. on my request I just want to change the costume of the sprite.

[Jesky]

of course, you can't change the item type from item_db by script (from my knowledge).

 

so the npc is just exchange your equipment with costume item based on item_db...

that's why the cards, refine, enchant, etc will gone...

But, it will removed when the player relogin isn't?

Yeah setlook does, so I recommend the 2nd part where editing of the sprite of the item_db entry is involved.. that way it would be permanent.

 

I used to do this on my server before, I created costumes by duplicating items without hassle...

 

Read the item_avail.txt for more info
