its my first ot.. so any problem with that?
i strongly believe that u had been on my position once and with the passing of years ur exp increrased..
but though i have to start from sthing dont u think so?
Yeah don't mind me, I was just acting bitter. The owner of the last OT I managed doesn't know what a budget is and failed to maintain a positive account with the dedicated hosting provider resulting in no service for half of September and the cancellation in October. It was only $99/mo and he averaged $350 a week from January to first week of April. -.-
Moving on.
Remere's is fail in that (in Windows) it stores some of it's configuration in the registry (HKCU\Software\Remere\Remere's Map Editor). Ah well.. Everything else is just ordinary extensible markup in the programs root and sub-trees. i.e \data\ and \extensions\ Familiarize yourself with these files and how they work immediately.
For example, in the \data\
version_number\ directories you'll find
creatures.xml files with entries like the following
<creature name="Rat" type="monster" looktype="21" lookhead="20" lookbody="30" looklegs="40" lookfeet="50"/>
By editing these files you can make Remere's supports your OTs custom monsters without having to share the servers dataset/monsters tree with your mappers.
the doodads.xml is helpful to expand. tilesets is the core though! for example <tileset name="Containers"> does NOT contain all regular backpacks. Something I find irritating. I always have to manually add Brocade Backpack and co with any fresh Remere's install. >.<
I also find it convenient to just copy the tibia dat and spr to these data directories.
