Need a little help incorporating new items

[PurpleYouko]

I am trying to add a bunch of new items from Arua into my evo server.

First I am testing with the new wing items that they use then if that is successful i will bring over the whole lot..

I have deciphered the differences in the STBs between evo and iRose and have copied the wing item data across.
I have also brought over the icons that are used in the inventory. I can now see the wings and their stats in inventory.

I have also imported all the zms and dds files from 3ddata/avatar/back, where they are kept.

The problem I am having is how to get the wings to appear once i have equipped them. They don't show up at all. I have seen some stuff written about .tsi files but I'm not sure what needs to be done with them.

Any ideas?

I am a little reluctant to just grab tsi files from Arua and import them to my evo VFS since I don't know if there are any significant differences in structure.
Ah heck maybe i will just make backups of the originals and try it anyway.

tsi files are for the icon file layouts, it wouldn't stop the item from showing up on your character.

for example, a tsi file shows what area goes to icon '45' in icon01.dds, etc.

you want the zsc files. thy are the ones that link each STB entry to a specific mesh and texture. if it's not in there, it won't show. we had the same problem with hairs, but got it fixed. it's a crappy process of hexing for now, as my editor ain't done.

Oh so that's what the tsi does.
It would appear that it isn't necessary to mess with it then because the STB has a field that directly references the index of the icon anyway. I have had no problem changing the reference to make different icons show up just by editing it from there.

Do you think i could just import the zsc file? or will i need to edit it?

[Geobot]

you'll need to edit it unless every item in your STB is in the same row as theirs is, since it goes by rows in the stb(item id)

i just went through the zsc files in both Arua and my basic NA Rose installation and they appear to be identical other than the new stuff that they have added. As the STBs are the same as far as rows go I figured it would work to simply copy the files over.

I just copied over the zsc file from Arua (just the one for backpacks and wings) and it works. I have access to all of the backpacks, back shields and wings.
Both in inventory and actually to equip them.

Now for the other sets of stuff.
There are a hell of a lot of files to bring over but it's not tat difficult to do once the STBs have been modified. One thing i will have to do though, is to edit the crafting recipes as the iRose servers use a completely different numbering system.

Very good job. hmmm... how were you able to extract something from Arua afs anyway? or were you using an old Arua Client?

[PurpleYouko]

it's the up to date client using the link that cellcote posted above.

It extracts all the files in the AFS system.

After that you just need to compare and merge the STBs, STLs, ZSCs, icon.dds etc.
The STBs in iRose are different in a lot of ways so you need to be a little careful about how to get the values over.

It's a lot of work but is not really all that difficult.
