A whole lot of stuff

Post by noelleionscowl »

I have whole lot of stuff to ask.
1. Is it possible to use two different attacks for one weapon? (e.g. shoot and smash with bow, or stab and slash with sword)? How hard would this be?
2. How do you design items?
3. GMs - Can someone please tell me what to do? As in how to use the commands properly? THERE ARE ONLY 2 PEOPLE ON THE SERVER. EVER. The other one is a GM too.
4. How do I use skill points? Are they good for anything? The "use" button is greyed out.
5. What is the Dark Talisman good for? How do I use it?

Thanks all, hope to see you around.

1. I don't think that's possible.

2. To design them, come up with an idea. To create them you need to make entries in item_db.txt (server data) and items.xml (client data), and supply the client with an icon and sprite .xml if necessary.* You'll have to get someone else to explain getting clients to receive your updates.

3. Try @help. Also, when making a complaint about a server you should specify which or - preferably - contact the server's administrators.

4. They used to be used to raise the Basic skill, which unlocked sitting, trading, and emoting. They have no use now.

5. The Dark Talisman is a special item that was used in the Easter event 2010. No player has one and they are unobtainable.


* I think that's all you need to do.

Uh... Yeah. I kind of created a bunch of items to see what they could do. I made bone arrows, a desert bow, a rock knife, assassin outfit, and golden warlord plate. And the talisman. From what I can see, it makes me look like a skeleton. How do I use it?

It increases various stats. Equip it and look at your hitpoints.

If you aren't up to date, you shouldn't answer questions like this. There was a content update which introduced new skills.
See this link and the wiki for more information:

They aren't up to date so I personally think that they should do an update to remove the unneeded things in the game..

The Dark Talisman is a special purpose item. It is not and never was made generally available for player use.

i could get you one for about 40kk, but do to the nature of the item, it would be gone as soon as an admin noticed you had one ( so basically 15 minutes after you used it the first time.)

Oops. I guess I should eventually look up what happened while I was away.
