Magic effect problem

Thorn · Apr 23, 2014

Hello, i'm trying to make an item to give an outfit, and when it does, it makes a magic effect. Recently i added one into my dat but i have no idea how to use it, if anyone could help me plz, here it is

Code:

function onUse(cid, item, frompos, item2, topos)
    if getPlayerSex(cid) == 1 then
            doPlayerAddOutfit(cid, 842, 1)
            doSendMagicEffect(getPlayerPosition(cid), CONST_ME_FIREAREA)
            doCreatureSay(cid, "Felicidades, ahora posees el Ash Avatar", TALKTYPE_MONSTER)
            doRemoveItem(item.uid, 1)           
    elseif getPlayerSex(cid) == 0 then
            doPlayerAddOutfit(cid, 842, 1)
            doSendMagicEffect(getPlayerPosition(cid), CONST_ME_FIREAREA)
            doCreatureSay(cid, "Felicidades, ahora posees el Ash Avatar", TALKTYPE_MONSTER)
            doRemoveItem(item.uid, 1)
    end
end

CONST_ME_FIREAREA is set to an integer in global.lua. It looks like the numbers have to be between 1 and 254.

When you created and saved yours did you get an index number in that range? If so, try the number instead of CONST_ME_FIREAREA. If you're not sure, try the first unused number (in my TFS it's 76)

i'm sorry i'm not following you, i replace once that CONST_ME_FIREAREA for the ID of the new spell but it didn't work :S

Your original post is ambiguous: it's not clear of you're having a problem with the new item, the new outfits, or a hand-built magic effect.
I guessed a magic effect but I might be wrong.

Also if you're using SpellCreator you should be in the Tools forum.

You need a better english man xD...

You problem is because you add a new effect to your client, if you want to server to recoignize it you have to recompile the server and add the effect in enums.h and in tools.cpp, and then the server will show what you add to the .dat

damm looks difficult, do you know if there's any tutorial about this? about the compiling specially?

Raiden · Apr 24, 2014

Yeah of course man, here in the tutorial section have a lot of them, if you are using TFS 1.0 it would be easy for you

Those tutorials are just for compile, when you done it if you want msg me in pribate and i help you in what you need to edit

Check out the tool SpellCreator in the Tools sub-forum.

Yep, no way, server have the list of all the effects, if you add one without add it to the server the client won't show you the effect
