:o :o :o Please keep us updated on that one!!

You are looking at an outdated friendslist, go into the Source Tutorial Index and Crzy's friendslist is in there, it works fine with EO 2.0 and isn't too hard to put in.

Ok so this is like my 2nd tutorial and probably one of the simplest you will see me post. Basically I have modified the way EXP is calculated once a player is so many levels higher than the NPC that that player kills. THERE ARE 2 WAYS OF DOING THIS * NOTE THIS AFFECTS PARTY EXP SHARING TOO Server Side only **Way #1** (Only scales the Exp when the attacking player is so many levels higher than the NPC) In **ModCombat** in **Sub PlayerAttackNpc** find ``` ' Make sure we dont get less then 0 If exp < 0 Then exp = 1 End If ``` Under Add ``` 'Make sure higher level players aren't camping on lower level creatures for EXP If NPC(npcNum).Level - 5 < GetPlayerLevel(attacker) Then exp = Round(NPC(npcNum).exp / GetPlayerLevel(attacker)) End If ``` –------------------------------------------------------------ **Way #2** (Always scales your Exp) In the same file and sub as above find ``` ' Calculate exp to give attacker exp = Npc(npcNum).exp ``` change to ``` exp = Round(NPC(npcNum).exp / GetPlayerLevel(attacker)) ``` Here is a little breakdown for those of you who have no idea what this code is saying, so you can modify it to your needs. In the code (WAY #1) **- 5** signifies how many levels different the player has to be from the NPC in order for the EXP scaling to take effect. You can make this number whatever number you wish. The exp is equal to the amount of exp that you put in for your NPC to have DIVIDED (/) by the attacking players level, meaning if you are level 100 and the NPC gives you 100 EXP you will only gain 1 EXP when you kill that creature. If you are in a party the exp is divided as stated above, and then split between all of the party members. I am not sure as to why I explained all of that as it doesn't take rocket science to know >.<

>_< me = newb thanks Scott I am glad there are great people like you and all the other contributors and helpers in this community for stupid ppl like me lol

I fixed the issue I was having, thanks Scott and Deathbeam for clarifying what I did wrong to get it working properly Server side find this in ModServerTCP ``` If Player(index).GuildFileId > 0 Then If TempPlayer(index).TmpGuildSlot > 0 Then Buffer.WriteByte 1 Buffer.WriteString GuildData(TempPlayer(index).TmpGuildSlot).Guild_Name End If Else Buffer.WriteByte 0 End If ``` under add ``` If Player(index).GuildFileId > 0 Then If TempPlayer(index).TmpGuildSlot > 0 Then Buffer.WriteByte 1 Buffer.WriteLong Player(index).GuildMemberId End If Else Buffer.WriteByte 0 End If ``` Save and compile then Client side find this in ModTypes ``` GuildName As String ``` under add ``` GuildMemberId As Long ``` in ModHandleData find ``` If Buffer.ReadByte = 1 Then Player(i).GuildName = Buffer.ReadString Else Player(i).GuildName = vbNullString End If ``` under add ``` If Buffer.ReadByte = 1 Then Player(i).GuildMemberId = Buffer.ReadLong Else Player(i).GuildMemberId = 0 End If ``` Finally in ModGeneral find ``` If GuildData.Guild_Members(MyIndex).Rank > 5 Then frmMain.lblGuildDisband.visible = True Else frmMain.lblGuildDisband.visible = False End If ``` and change to ``` If Player(MyIndex).GuildMemberId > 0 Then If GuildData.Guild_Members(Player(MyIndex).GuildMemberId).Rank > 5 Then frmMain.lblGuildDisband.visible = True Else frmMain.lblGuildDisband.visible = False End If End If ```

@devilfrenzy: > Can not find it. Help me !! > Now in Sub LoadGui search for > > Code: [Select] > frmMain.picOptions.Picture = LoadPicture(App.Path & "\data files\graphics\gui\main\options.jpg") It's in ModGeneral, just use cntrl+f make sure you click Current Project and it searches all of the files in the project

What was the most recent source (tutorial) you added? I had that problem when I added the multi npc drop mod and had to take it out

@devilfrenzy: > i get an error for variable not defined > > ReOrderChat Header & Name & ": " & message, colour Make sure you are putting that line in **ModHandleData** in the **HandleSayMsg Sub** and not the AddText Sub in ModText

There isn't anywhere I see in Server that sends the guildname… and where at in serve is SendPlayerData because all I see is``` Sub SendPlayerData(ByVal index As Long) Dim packet As String SendDataToMap GetPlayerMap(index), PlayerData(index) End Sub ``` in ModServerTCP.. I am still a little new to this EDIT is this the code you are talking about editing server side ``` If Player(index).GuildFileId > 0 Then If TempPlayer(index).TmpGuildSlot > 0 Then Buffer.WriteByte 1 Buffer.WriteString GuildData(TempPlayer(index).TmpGuildSlot).Guild_Name End If Else Buffer.WriteByte 0 End If ```

@ ^ I already assessed this in my last post -.- I have found a problem though This line seems to not be doing its job! ``` If GuildData.Guild_Members(MyIndex).Rank > 5 Then ``` There is a guild member who is rank 1 and they can see the Disband Label.. although it does them no good to click it cause it obviously won't let them disband a guild they didn't create. I am not sure if it is cause I edited the lbls a little bit or what I have is the same as yours except I added .lblGuAdmin.Visible = True (which it shows up for the Rank 1 user as well *I DO have it set to false in frmMain as well as in the ELSE for this IF*) which adding that really shouldn't have bothered anything it was simply adding that line, I have tried fixing it, but it doesn't matter what I do it doesn't fix it… I tried taking the label I added out but the Disband label still shows even with the original code.

it isn't there just comment out that line, it works just fine believe me :)

Great tutorial thank you so much!! I was in the midst of making this myself last night and BAM I log in this morning and there is one up, saves me A LOT of time really appreciated!!

I totally overlooked it! Found it though for others who may be interested here is the link http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf2/index.php/topic,79295.0.html

Unfortunetly that's not the one I found the other day, this one is great too, but I want one that's outside of the main GUI, but if I cannot find the other one then this is the one I will use, thanks for the help though

The other day I was browsing the forums and I saw a thread explaining how to make a help menu EXE file that opened when /help was typed in or a button was hit, and now I cannot find it anywhere!! I bookmarked it, but between then and now I got a new computer and no longer have the bookmark -.- If anyone knows which topic I am referring to could you please please please link it! Thank you so much!!
