I'm working on a 8.54 Open Tibia Server using The Forgotten Server - Version 0.2.7 (Mystic Spirit).

I've tried to make 'cleaver' useable (item id: 2568).
I changed settings within my 'item.otb' file but still i can't use it.
So I decided to change the name and graphics of an existing item, which can be used, into the ones of a cleaver. And now this new item also can't be used. (changed witchesbroom, item id: 2324).

Anyone has any idea how to fix this?

Thanks in advance.

Don't know so much about changing items usability. But do you use any otb editor? Are you aware of that it will cause you to change tibia.dat, which cause all other players to use a custom client?

Actually not every edit makes you have to edit your client, as long as you keep using the same sprites, stacks etc. everything that is already included within the 'tibia.dat' and 'tibia.spr' there will be no problems. And if you make edits in the wrong way without editing your 'tibia.dat' you will get debugs in game, so you can check it easily.

Okay, I'm not so good at client related questions. I'm sorry. Did you use an itemotb editor to try to change the usability? I'm sorry I can't help.

I tried it 2 ways already, I did edit the usability within the 'items.otb' using an itemotb-editor. And as that didn't work i changed the look of an item which can be used to be the same as a cleaver and then suddenly the item was not usable anymore.

I'm sorry, if the otitemeditor doesn't work I can't help you. Used it one to make a lumberjackscript. I think it worked at the first try.

All other items I have edited with the 'itemotb-editor' work perfectly. I have made corpses into fields, made stuff invisible etc. You name it and I probably did it, as long as it doesn't involve changes within the .dat file.

That's why I'm so surprised this ain't working. For some strange reason usability is connected to the sprite, it seems.

Well it doesn't have any reason to create a crash since the server just tells you to show picture id x when you see item id x.

There for example if you make an item stack-able it will crash since it does not have the sprites to put the numbers over this item.

And that's the reason why certain edits do need a .dat edit and others don't.

Nopes :) As many people who will play my server also combine it with playing real tibia they do not enjoy downloading something which could have a key-logger implanted in it.

+ then there are no limitations to what can be achieved meaning I will never be done with making my server so it will never be online :p
