[Guide] add block/line ITEM.EDF client side

[meylan]

Not to perfect guide u must combine with other guide
but ya its clearly can be easy to understand it
and yes u can use this guide for
add line client all EDF / server script whatever u want just analysed it and learn it

example :
my tutorial for add new line weapon

1. weapon column = 10094

2. find offset first and last column

3. use HXD or other tool for copy paste
better look my other guide thread
http://forum.ragezone.com/f480/guide-editing-resource-edf-1019160/

4. important step (change offset)
example i add 50 new line weapon

Spoiler

*after change the column weapon (before edit 10094)(after edit 10144)
WeaponBlock : 2785952
WeaponOffset : 8752908
WeaponColumn : 10094
WeaponSize : 276

ShieldBlock : 432728
ShieldOffset : 11538870
ShieldColumn : 1803
ShieldSize : 240

CloakBlock : 483128
CloakOffset : 11971608
CloakColumn : 1980
CloakSize : 244

this my formula :
WeaponBlock = WeaponColumn * WeaponSize + 8
ShieldOffset = WeaponBlock + WeaponOffset +10

******remember keep repeating this formula till the end of ITEM (change all offset)
so will gain
WeaponBlock : 2799752 < after formula
WeaponOffset : 8752908
WeaponColumn : 10144 < add 50
WeaponSize : 276

ShieldBlock : 432728
ShieldOffset : 11552670 < after formula
ShieldColumn : 1803
ShieldSize : 240

CloakBlock : 483128
CloakOffset : 11985408 < after formula
CloakColumn : 1980
CloakSize : 244

keep repeating till end

correct please if wrong or false something

be better write your formula in your STRS.
im doing this since Augs 2013

Use curoffset for get your starting offset..
with this formula

calc [value=curoffset-6]

and use this formula for getting your items block size

calc [value=[B][COLOR="#FF0000"][Example is Face][/COLOR][/B]Column*[B][COLOR="#FF0000"][Example is Face][/COLOR][/B]temSize+8]

How to apply this to my strs? or do you have a sample file for me to look at. Please.

just example

//seek UpperItemseek(FaceZero+FaceOffset+10+2);
cstr [value=("---------------------->> UPPER")] "<<--------------------------------------->>";
u32 UpperBlock;
calc [value=curoffset-6] "<==== New Offset ====>";
u32 UpperOffset;
u32 UpperColumn;
u32 UpperSize;
calc [value=UpperColumn*UpperSize+8] "<==== New Block ====>";

//seek LowerItemseek(UpperOffset+UpperBlock+10+2);
cstr [value=("---------------------->> LOWER")] "<<--------------------------------------->>";
u32 LowerBlock;
calc [value=curoffset-6] "<==== New Offset ====>";
u32 LowerOffset;
u32 LowerColumn;
u32 LowerSize;
calc [value=LowerColumn*LowerSize+8] "<==== New Block ====>";

//seek GauntletItemseek(LowerOffset+LowerBlock+10+2);
cstr [value=("---------------------->> GAUNTLET")] "<<--------------------------------------->>";
u32 GauntletBlock;
calc [value=curoffset-6] "<==== New Offset ====>";
u32 GauntletOffset;
u32 GauntletColumn;
u32 GauntletSize;
calc [value=GauntletColumn*GauntletSize+8] "<==== New Block ====>";
