1) Your storyline is horribly written.
2) The whole games concept is based around a war cause by an orc shooting someone.
3) Your main feature is a race system.
4) Your other systems are generic, tacky, etc.
5) Shamans summon spirits, not undead.
6) l2use proper forum software. It's not hard.
And that's it. Don't bother giving one of your long silly argument posts with some silly argument that isn't relevant like you usually do, instead take those points into consideration. -

Do you even know what "inb4 crit" is? If so are you being a complete idiot on purpose?
Go outside, it's not all one patch of green and a house, is it? No, ofcourse it isn't. He's the used the perfect amount of detail. -
@Stach:
> Your mapping needs some serious help.
You need to give some actual help.
Just basically try and make the maps less squarish. Also, use a lot more detail; flowers, long grass, rocks, more trees, etc. -

@Smore:

If they don't know how to search then they shouldn't bother programming. -
Get CodeSmart :P.

His title and sprites already make his game 200% epicer than yours. -
You been playing with the source? That sometimes happens when you duck up a packet.

And thanks. -

This tutorial is basically about making a party chat message system. I use /p for mine. So you will have to change the numbers in the "/p" code to fit the way you're chat messages work. Lets begin.
**Client Side**
At the bottom of "modClientTCP" add:
```
Public Sub SendPartyChatMsg(ByVal text As String)
Dim Buffer As clsBuffer
Set Buffer = New clsBuffer
Buffer.WriteLong CPartyChatMsg
Buffer.WriteString text
SendData Buffer.ToArray()
Set Buffer = Nothing
End Sub
```
In "modEnumerations", above:
```
' Make sure CMSG_COUNT is below everything else
```
Add:
```
CPartyChatMsg
```
In "modInput", in "Sub Handlekeypresses" under:
```
' Handle when the player presses the return key
If KeyAscii = vbKeyReturn Then
```
Add:
```
' Party Msg
If Left$(ChatText, 3) = "/p " Then
ChatText = Mid$(ChatText, 4, Len(ChatText) - 3)
If Len(ChatText) > 0 Then
Call SendPartyChatMsg(ChatText)
End If
MyText = vbNullString
frmMain.txtMyChat.text = vbNullString
Exit Sub
End If
```
And thats it for the client side. Again you will have to change the numbers in the above code if you want to use symbols to chat.
**Server Side**
In "modHandleData", in "Sub InitMessages" above the "End Sub" add:
```
HandleDataSub(CPartyChatMsg) = GetAddress(AddressOf HandlePartyChatMsg)
```
At the bottom of "modHandleData" add:
```
Sub HandlePartyChatMsg(ByVal Index As Long, ByRef Data() As Byte, ByVal StartAddr As Long, ByVal ExtraVar As Long)
Dim Buffer As clsBuffer
Set Buffer = New clsBuffer
Buffer.WriteBytes Data()
PartyChatMsg Index, Buffer.ReadString, Pink
Set Buffer = Nothing
End Sub
```
At the bottom of "modServerTCP" add:
```
Public Sub PartyChatMsg(ByVal Index As Long, ByVal Msg As String, ByVal Color As Byte)
Dim i As Long
Dim Member As Integer
Dim partyNum As Long
partyNum = tempPlayer(Index).inParty
' not in a party?
If tempPlayer(Index).inParty = 0 Then
Call PlayerMsg(Index, "You are not in a party.", BrightRed)
Exit Sub
End If
For i = 1 To MAX_PARTY_MEMBERS
Member = Party(partyNum).Member(i)
' is online, does exist?
If IsConnected(Party(partyNum).Member(i)) And IsPlaying(Party(partyNum).Member(i)) Then
' yep, send the message!
Call PlayerMsg(Member, "[Party] " & GetPlayerName(Index) & ": " & Msg, Color)
End If
Next
End Sub
```
In "modEnumerations", above:
```
' Make sure CMSG_COUNT is below everything else
```
Add:
```
CPartyChatMsg
```
And that's it. Goodluck. -

You might aswell pixel your own trees and waterfalls tbh, they don't work together at all.
-
Give them a range.
-
Eq position
in Q & A
```
' Character consts
Public Const EqTop As Long = 224
Public Const EqLeft As Long = 18
Public Const EqOffsetX As Long = 10
Public Const EqColumns As Long = 4
```
Have a play around with those. You can find them in modConstants. -
1\. Try this: http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,70769.0.html. You need VB6 to compile/save your changes after adding it, though.
2\. Again, there's a tutorial for it: http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,71740.0.html. And yet again you need VB6.
3\. Yes they do, you can change it in the NPC Editor (it's caption is "Range"). -
What you've done isn't really an option.
This would be how to add an actual option:
Go to modTypes and scroll down to the "OptionsRec".
Before the "End Type" add:
```
Movement as Byte
```
In modDatabase find:
```
Call PutVar(fileName, "Options", "Debug", Str(Options.Debug))
```
And under it add:
```
Call PutVar(fileName, "Options", "Movement", Str(Options.Movement))
```
Still in modOptions, in Sub LoadOptions under
```
Options.Debug = 0
```
Add:
```
Options.Movement = 0
```
Under:
```
Options.Debug = GetVar(fileName, "Options", "Debug")
```
Add:
```
Options.Movement = GetVar(fileName, "Options", "Movement")
```
Before "Error handler", add:
```
If Options.Movement = 0 Then
frmMain.optW.Value = True
Else
frmMain.optR.Value = True
End If
```
Finally, add these two subs at the end of the frmMain code:
```
Private Sub optW_Click()
' If debug mode, handle error then exit out
If Options.Debug = 1 Then On Error GoTo errorhandler
Options.Movement = 0
' save to config.ini
SaveOptions
' Error handler
Exit Sub
errorhandler:
HandleError "optW_Click", "frmMain", Err.Number, Err.Description, Err.Source, Err.HelpContext
Err.Clear
Exit Sub
Private Sub optR_Click()
' If debug mode, handle error then exit out
If Options.Debug = 1 Then On Error GoTo errorhandler
Options.Movement = 1
' save to config.ini
SaveOptions
' Error handler
Exit Sub
errorhandler:
HandleError "optR_Click", "frmMain", Err.Number, Err.Description, Err.Source, Err.HelpContext
Err.Clear
Exit Sub
End Sub
```
Thats it for the code. Remember to add: Movement= 0 in your config.ini. -
Client side > modDD7\. You need VB6 to compile/save your changes.

(For 3) Go to frmMain and open it's code. Under the "Option Explicit" at the very start add these:
```
Private Declare Function ReleaseCapture Lib "user32" () As Long
Private Declare Function SendMessage Lib "user32" Alias "SendMessageA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal wMsg As Long, ByVal wParam As Long, lParam As Any) As Long
```
Now, in your Form_MouseMove sub above:
```
If debug mode, handle error then exit out
```
Add:
```
Dim lngReturnValue As Long
If Button = 1 Then
Call ReleaseCapture
lngReturnValue = SendMessage(Form1.hwnd, WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN, HTCAPTION, 0&)
End If
``` -
Oh for god's sake. Yes, they do have the transparent backgrounds, well done. Changing them to bmp will make the transparent backgrounds automatically white.
-
Those are converted forms of the RMXP RTP. Go download it, it has the sprites in EO format already (you just need to make them BMPs).
