Hello Hercules,
Here is a Guide on how to ADD a Custom Homunculus into your Server and Client .
Special Thanks to "Neo" for helping me and providing me the xDiff file for it
The Hardcoded Client Limit of Homunculus are 6052, The xDiff file raises this
limit till 7000. So we can use many Custom Homunculus now
For this Guide I'm using the IDs 6080 and 6081, you can use any ID between 6053 - 7000.
Server Side Configuration.
First we need to ADD our Custom Homunculus in the db/homunculus_db.txt
Simply follow the existing format.
In my example here I am using ID 6080 for my Custom Homunculus ID and 6081 will be the Evolved Custom Homunculus ID
Code:
6080,6081,Hercules,537,60000,0,1,7,0,700,150,40,17,20,15,35,24,12,60,100,4,9,5,19,5,19,5,19,4,20,6,20,6,20,1,10,10,20,1,5,1,4,1,5,4,10,1,10,1,3 Now let add some skills for them. Open db/homun_skill_tree_db.txt
Here we need to set all Skill for our New Homunculus , in my Example I Used the Skill from the Vanilmirth Homunculus.
Code:
//Hercules Custom Homunculus6080,8013,5,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 //HVAN_CAPRICE6080,8014,5,8013,3,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 //HVAN_CHAOTIC6080,8015,5,8013,5,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 //HVAN_INSTRUCT Server Source code Modifications
Now lets move on to the SRC folder.
Open mmo.h (SRC/COMMON/mmo.h)
search for this line
Code:
#define MAX_HOMUNCULUS_CLASS 52 Currently this limits usable IDs to 6001-6052
Change to
Code:
#define MAX_HOMUNCULUS_CLASS 1001 now we can use IDs from 6053-7000 as well for Homunculus.
Remember the xDiff only raises till 7000 now so if you add it beyond that range you are out of luck for now.
Next we open the homunculus.c (SRC/MAP/homunculus.c)
here we search for
// Normal Homunculus
you will see a few case statements following this line. We need to add our Regular Homunculus here
In my example I am adding case 6080: (it should look like this)
Code:
// Normal Homunculus case 6001: case 6005: case 6002: case 6006: case 6003: case 6007: case 6004: case 6008: case 6080: In my example I am adding case 6081: (it should look like this - you can skip this step if you dont have an evolved one)
Code:
// Evolved Homunculus case 6009: case 6013: case 6010: case 6014: case 6011: case 6015: case 6012: case 6016: case 6081: Client Side Changes.
First what you need is a client that supports the addition of custom Homunculus.
Make your patched client (better to have official patches already patched up first).
Download the xDiff file for your client date from http://sourceforge.net/p/neocustoms/code/HEAD/tree/xDiffs/
Patch your client with the downloaded xDiff File using xDiffPatcher (Select Enable Custom Homunculus)
You are Ready to Rumble.
Now that you have the client, let's make it use our homun sprites.
First we add the Homunculus ID to npcidentity.lub at the end. (dataluafiles514lua filesdatainfonpcidentity.lub)
Mine are as follows.
Code:
JT_MER_Water_Ghost = 6080,JT_MER_Water_Ghost2 = 6081 You will also notice the following line in the same file
Code:
JT_MER_LAST = 6053Now that we have more 6052 it would be wise to set it to the max value + 1 = 7001 to avoid confusion i.e.
Code:
JT_MER_LAST = 7001, Save & Close npcidentity.lub
Now we add the sprite information in jobname.lub at the end (dataluafiles514lua filesdatainfojobname.lub)
the same way you would add for a mob or npc.
Code:
[jobtbl.JT_MER_Water_Ghost] = "Water_Ghost",[jobtbl.JT_MER_Water_Ghost2] = "Water_Ghost2" Now that the Lua files are done we can add the sprite files into the appropriate folder which is => data/sprite/homun
In my example I will add the following files to that folder : Water_Ghost.spr, Water_Ghost.act, Water_Ghost2.spr and Water_Ghost2.act
All the files are set . Now you can start your client and test out your homunculus.
Fastest way to check => use @makehomun 6080
Enjoy your Custom Homunculus!!
