Solved Setting an object/tree/tile as 'looktype'

[Sinth]

How?

Want to have a creature looking like a tree(example).

And, why doesn't editing item.otbm work in so many ways? Like editing tiles walkability etc. Is it connected to something in the client? Example: Can't make 'void' walkable, can't put lighting on tiles etc.

Only been using what already works so far so just now getting into object-editing.. feels like its sort of step 2 and then 3 or 4 is your own client Never though i'd think about source-editing but getting more and more tempted. Is there a tutorial on the basics? (i'll look myself, but drop if you can recommend 1)

You can make a creature look like a tree or whatever just go into the monster file and edit the line: <look type="X" /> to <look typeex="Y" />, where Y is the ID of an item.

Am I really that retarded?

brb.. LOL!

My client crashed instantly when trying to summon a rat looking like a shining red stone.. again: LOL!

Haha, what's up? Did I pick a bad object or you fkn with me? haha

SOooooo, I GUESS I just missed that it should be 'looktypeEX'.. with an extra EX after looktype.

So, just semi-retarded But I think that makes 2 of us as you COULD(maybe not should, but could ) have highlighted those 2 letters..

thanks a lot! Made my day!



You're right @HalfAway ! And thanks for demo(pun intended). Sorry for double-post, slips sometimes. What I reaaaally can't fkn understand though is this:

Spoiler: Bad monster-pack

Why the hell does a Rat win over a Cat??

Results in:

You need to take a closer look on what @Beto06 wrote, it works just fine.

Next time, read the rules for the support board also.
