How do item IDs work?

[Lordfire]

I was messing with CandyBot constants, and I started to compare item IDs (of rings and necklaces, for instance) were different (and A LOT) from my server's item IDs.
How does item IDs work with OTClient, and how is it possible to get them? I'm very confused with it and I'm not very proficient with C++ to explore the source code.

Client sided IDs are probably the ones in .dat and server sided are the ones in .otb

Is there a reliable dat editor for Linux?

 

[zakius]

Hmm, otclient as core, modules as editor itself

 

[Lordfire]

Err... how am I supposed to do that? Is there a mod to simply show item ID?
I know Elfbot can see clientsided IDs, but I'm not really in the mood of using Windows just for that. And I would like to see how this would work.

Well, you can try looking for the forgotten map editor and if you manage to make it load .dat and .spr properly then you're almost done

It seems FME project is dead and all links are broken
