[Louis T Steinhil 4]

Hello guys, I don't know if this is a client version or script but how to add that item icon in dialogue?

[ Q ] How to show item ICONS inside NPC dialogue (Hercules)?
[ A ] Use item *links* in your messages: getitemlink(<item_id>)

────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
REQUIREMENTS (client-side)
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
1) A client that supports item links (any modern 2014+ client is fine).
2) When diffing your client (e.g. NEMO), enable:
   - “Enable Item Link” (sometimes named “Enable Monster & Item Link”).
   That’s it — no custom LUA needed.
 

Note: Zeny does not have a built-in icon in dialogue; only items do.

    mes "  ^000000* 100,000 Zeny^000000";
    mesf("  ^000000* %d x %s^000000", 10, getitemlink(984));  // Oridecon
    mesf("  ^000000* %d x %s^000000", 50, getitemlink(7063)); // Lower Weapon Stone (example id)
    mesf("  ^000000* %d x %s^000000", 25, getitemlink(7064)); // High Weapon Stone (example id)
    mes "Would you like to salvage it?";
    next;
    switch(select("Yes:No")) {
        case 1:
            mes "You chose ^00AAFFYes^000000.";
            close;
        default:
            mes "Come back later.";
            close;
    }
}

/// NOTES:
/// - Replace 7063/7064 with your server’s real item IDs.
/// - getitemlink() renders the item name clickable and shows its small icon
///   automatically in the dialogue window.
/// - You can also use it inside mesf/select strings anywhere you print text.

────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
COMMON PITFALLS
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
• Using getitemname() — this prints only text (no icon). Use getitemlink().
• Old client or diff without “Item Link” → icons won’t show.
• Expecting Zeny icon → not supported natively; print plain text for Zeny.
