[Guide] Removing "Battleground" and "Navigation" buttons

[raPalooza~]

The "Battleground" and the "Navigation" buttons are somehow useless for our clients, so i'm going to show you how to remove them from the client, keep in mind that this Technic is a little hackish as it consist in changing the HEX value, misleading the image information for those buttons.

Needed:

HxD ( Or some other HEX editor )
[*]Your patched client ( Tested on 08.07a )

Search and replace the following Hex values to hide the buttons:

Navigation:
Search:
[cbox]5C 62 74 6E 5F 4E 61 76 69 67 61 74 69 6F 6E[/cbox]
Replace
[cbox]5F 62 74 6E 5F 4E 61 76 69 67 61 74 69 6F 6E[/cbox]

Battleground:
Search:
[cbox]5C 62 74 6E 5F 62 61 74 74 6C 65 5F 66 69 65 6C 64[/cbox]
Replace
[cbox]5F 62 74 6E 5F 62 61 74 74 6C 65 5F 66 69 65 6C 64[/cbox]

Replacing the first 5C for a 5F is what i'm doing.


What it does?
It changes the image path, so the client do not reach and load the buttons.

It goes well with the skin that I've released, where i hided the navigation from the menu for a better fit.

I already doing this also, because im using pre-re mechanics and doesnt want to use navigation system. So this is only a option if don't want to have navigation system in your server.

..and the battlegrounds will be functional soon-ish I believe.

Yeah, I believe too..

Well let's say you have a medium/high rate server with a warper NPC and you don't want to mess around with all the lua and lub files. In the end you would have all navigation pointing towards your warper NPC ( that's why i called it kinda useless. ), i tried to be brief and forgot to specify the uses of it. ;]

..and the battlegrounds will be functional soon-ish I believe.

 

Well, not fully working yet... but looking towards having a more professional client, i believe people would like to know how to hide a non all functioning button. I'm not using the hide function on the battleground myself. ;D

 

hmm should i add this to NEMO i wonder

Would be amazing to see an option like:

( - )Hide buttons

- Hide Battleground

- Hide Navigation

- Hide Bank

and so on? idunno xD

@raPalooza how about the mini map icons possible to remove the Navigation Function from Icons like Merchant, Kafra etc.

You can do that by erasing the contenst of TownInfo.lub

 

[iZeal]

so nothing will happen if they accidentally clicked the icon from the Mini map?

This gives error if you don't add Ignore Missing File Errors. and would be pretty hard to debug client errors.
