Guides Cloning Dungeons CLONING, HOW TO CLONE A MAP: Locations of What Needs to be Changed: -The map folder itself (in /element/maps) -instance.txt =>inside=> CONFIGS.PCK (contains World ID and above map directory location) -LITMODELS.PCK -SURFACES.PCK (Map and mini map) -LODDATA.PCK (For some maps) -Directory: \element\maps\ -Server-side: /root/kdxy/gamed/config " From cloning existing maps, I have noticed something when it comes to naming (without changing any of the actual map files "inside"). I cloned b05 -to- house, well here was the file naming scheme within /element/maps/house:" - The file can be named whatever you want. But some file names CAN NOT be changed. (Specified later). Directory of E:\PW_Client\element\maps\house (Example is for PWE, but works the same) 06/01/2011 08:37 PM . 06/01/2011 08:37 PM .. 06/01/2011 08:37 PM bsdata 09/17/2010 05:17 AM 703,718 b05_1.t2bk 09/17/2010 05:17 AM 526,424 b05_1.t2lm 09/17/2010 05:17 AM 526,424 b05_1.t2lm1 09/17/2010 05:17 AM 249,272 b05_1.t2mk 09/17/2010 05:17 AM 38,236 b05_light.dat 09/17/2010 05:17 AM 32 house.cld 09/17/2010 05:17 AM 7,519 house.ecbsd 09/17/2010 05:17 AM 92,459 house.ecwld 09/17/2010 05:17 AM 4,372 house.t2hc 09/17/2010 05:17 AM 404 house.trn2 09/17/2010 06:27 AM 834 precinct.clt 01/19/2011 04:27 PM 1,914 region.clt 09/17/2010 05:17 AM 3,704 scenelights.dat "and ofc the map itself I called "house" -- so it's in /element/maps/house ==> instance.txt points to "house" ==> and LITMODELS/house ==> SURFACES.PCK house.dds etc..." So... I guess what if anything I've learned about using (or "cloning") an existing map is you can name it whatever you want. However the above files (just like in my b05~house example) should NOT have their filenames changed (unless you feel like editing "INSIDE" the files that actually point to those)... So, the files that CANNOT have a name change from their original names (in /element/maps/mapname) are: .t2bk .t2lm .t2lm1 .t2mk xxx_light.dat The ones that HAVE to be changed (to match your new map name) .cld .ecbsd .ecwld .t2hc .trn2 Server Side:  Server side is really simple, just copy the map you're cloning to another directory within ../gamed/config/ with the new name you will be giving the new clone map. This time you won't have to change any file names. EX, say you're cloning b05 => house, you would make a copy of the directory (and all the files in it): ../gamed/config/b05/ => ../gamed/config/house/ Then, all you have to do is configure your new map/clone in GS.CONF and GSALIAS.CONF. Duplicate the section from the map you're cloning and change a few settings to make your new map/clone work.

Basically we're going to copy everything with the ID 34460 for a new ID.  Pet Speech (continue the sequence):  If the last ending number were 2446, add 2447 and so on. NOTE: ALL OF THE FOLLOWING IS FOR SERVER-SIDE AS THIS AS MORE SETTINGS TO BE CHANGED. Unconfirmed as to what this edits, but we need to make sure to copy the format of #34460.

Server Side (all you need to do is change the number to another item ID): Client Side (change the item ID, but the name must remain Chinese for this section to work or your game will crash): Elements (shown in Rody's Angelica Editor): -Game model is changed in the highlighted area to whatever you want the pet to look like -Drop path: What the pet will look like if you drop it (default is an egg) -Icon path (item appearance in inventory) -File Icon Unidentify: what the pet looks like in inventory without mirror identification (suggested not to change) -G1 Normal Icon - Usual icon -G1 Mutated Icon - Usual icon -File Head Icon - Uses egg icon (suggested not to change) Models Model Effect Paths .smd file (SkinModelPath:) files located at .\Game\element\models.pck.files .ski files (AddiSkinPath:) files located at .\Game\element\models.pck.files\Models .wav files (FxFilePath:) files located at .\Game\element\sfx.pck.files\sfx .gfx files (FxFilePath:) files located at .\Game\element\gfx.pck.files\gfx .att files (AtkPath:) files located at .\Game\element\gfx.pck.files\gfx\skillattack About animation: .ecm files links to animation by CombineActName. In .smd file there's name, and link to animation file (in 8 version of smd file). About effects: .att files links to .gfx files, and that's how it works. Configuring LoMA Models should be below MOXTVersion: 67 (anything 67 does not work) Use MODFIX for these and change version to 60 or 59 or lower CustomData AtkOrient PSFileVersion GfxRotWithModel Downgrading from MOXTVersion: 71 MOXTVersion: 71, 1.5.5 only supports 67. To downgrade these, remove lines that say "AudioEventGroupEnable: 1", "ParticleBonesCount: 0" and "GfxUseFixedPoint: 0" and then obviously change the version number on the 1st line. AudioEventGroupEnable: 1 ParticleBonesCount: 0 GfxUseFixedPoint: 0 These settings are listed multiple times in the .ecm file and need to be removed with Notepad or Notepad++ Structure of Model .smd = Skeleton Model .ski = Skin Information .bon = Bone Model .stck = Skeleton Track Animation .phy = Not currently used .ecm = link gfx (effects) to items/equipements.
