[Guide] Adding New Status Icons

[Dastgir 1246]

Hello Hercules Community,

Here's a Guide to Add a New Custom Status Icons(the one displayed on the right)

 

 

What you Need?

• Knowledge of Editing and Compiling Server(and ofcourse custom icons)
  

 

1) Server Side Edits:

open

src/map/status.h

 

Find

 

SC_MAX 

Add Before

 

SC_MYCUSTOMBUTTON,

 

 

Find

SI_MAX,

Add Before

 

SI_MYCUSTOMBUTTON = ID_OF_BUTTON,

(ID of Button can be any, but I suggest to have them > 2000, so not to avoid any updates with kRO(which is at 900) now)

P.S: Remember that ID_OF_BUTTON, we gonna need them later.

 

 

src/map/status.c

Find

status->IconChangeTable[SC_DECORATION_OF_MUSIC] = SI_DECORATION_OF_MUSIC;

Add Below

status->IconChangeTable[SC_MYCUSTOMBUTTON] = SI_MYCUSTOMBUTTON;

 

Recompile 

 

2) ClientSide Edits

Get a CleanCopy of statusicon folder (https://github.com/ROClientSide/Translation/tree/master/Data/luafiles514/lua%20files/stateicon)

 

Open efstids.lub

Find:

__newindex = function()error("unknown state")

Before it add,

 

EFST_MYCUSTOMBUTTON = ID_OF_BUTTON, 

P.S: ID_OF_BUTTON should match the one on source(status.h)

 

 

Open  stateiconinfo.lub

Find

 

StateIconList[EFST_IDs.EFST_JUMPINGCLAN] = { 

Add Before

StateIconList[EFST_IDs.EFST_MYCUSTOMBUTTON] = {  haveTimeLimit = 1,  posTimeLimitStr = 2,  descript = {    {      "My Custom Button Heading",      COLOR_TITLE_BUFF    },    {"%s", COLOR_TIME},	--do not edit this, this shows time remaining    {      "Description 1"    },    {      "Description 2"    },	{      "Description 3"    }  }}

Open

stateiconimginfo.lua

Find

 

[PRIORITY_GOLD] = {

OR

[PRIORITY_RED] = { 

OR

[PRIORITY_BLUE] = { 

OR

[PRIORITY_GREEN] = { 

OR

[PRIORITY_WHITE] = { 

(Depending on what background your Custom Button is)

Add below

 

[EFST_IDs.EFST_MYCUSTOMBUTTON] = "MYCUSTOMBUTTONFILE.TGA", 

P.S: Your Button File must be in .TGA form only.

.tga file must go to data/texture/effect/ Folder

 

And Its DONE!!!

 

NOTE: Replace MYCUSTOMBUTTON with your own Icon/Effect Name

Awesome, I've been looking around for one of these. Now I don't have to memorize the process. Just click->search-> read lol. More space in my tiny head to do other things now =P

where I went wrong?

 

status.c

status->IconChangeTable[sC_DECORATION_OF_MUSIC] = SI_DECORATION_OF_MUSIC;

status->IconChangeTable[sC_STATUS_CONVERT_AGUA] = SI_STATUS_CONVERT_AGUA;

 

status.h

SI_STATUS_CONVERT_AGUA                   = 2000,

 

SI_MAX,

};

recompiled

data:

efstids.lub:

EFST_AKAITSUKI = 660,

EFST_STATUS_CONVERT_AGUA = 2000,

__newindex = function()

error("unknown state")

end

}

stateiconinfo.lub:

StateIconList[EFST_IDs.EFST_STATUS_CONVERT_AGUA] = {

  haveTimeLimit = 1,

  posTimeLimitStr = 2,

  descript = {

    {"Conversor de água Ativado",COLOR_TITLE_BUFF},

    {"%s", COLOR_TIME},

    {"Bônus contra a propriedade Fogo"},

    {"Penalidade de Dano contra água by:Ravnos"}

  }

}

stateiconimginfo.lub:

PRIORITY_BLUE = {

[EFST_IDs.EFST_STATUS_CONVERT_AGUA] = "STATUSAGUA.TGA"

item_db.conf

{

Id: 12115

AegisName: "Elemental_Water"

Name: "Elemental Converter"

Type: 11

Buy: 2

Weight: 10

BuyingStore: true

Script: <" sc_start SC_STATUS_CONVERT_AGUA,10000,1; itemskill ITEM_ENCHANTARMS,2; ">

},

?

[Zirius 1]

Do I need to put somewhere in itemdb to make the status icon appear after using an item, example Cursed Water?

[malufett 247]

@stiflerxx

you missed something..if you will use the SC statuses to scripts or item you need it to declare in 'db/const' for it to work...

 

@Zirius

yup..or you can use @displaystatus just to test if its really working...

 

[Alphoccio 0]

nice 

[Chatterboy 8]

really nice

how to run in this part:

 

StateIconList[EFST_IDs.EFST_MOVHASTE_INFINITY] = {
 haveTimeLimit = 1, posTimeLimitStr = 1, descript = {
   {"%s", COLOR_TIME},
   {"Increases Movement Speed"}
 }
}
 

Prob: the time doesnt show instead %s only (ingame)

really nice ^_^how to run in this part: StateIconList[EFST_IDs.EFST_MOVHASTE_INFINITY] = {  haveTimeLimit = 1, posTimeLimitStr = 1, descript = {    {"%s", COLOR_TIME},    {"Increases Movement Speed"}  }} Prob: the time doesnt show instead %s only (ingame)

First one in descript should always be title, timer can go on 2nd or greater .

[Anisotropic Defixation 18]

Hmm, it seems like some status icons are hardcoded? Cloaking exceed is using a wrong icon (poison smoke) but changing it absolutely doesn't work.
