[Guide] Make STRS from Header

[aurielly]

Search for [datname]_fld

so unitupper_fld, or even upper_fld

still not found sir :

now i make strs 2.2.3.2 for UnitFrame
here,

[filemask="UnitFrame.dat"]


struct UnitFrameFile
{
i32 nUnitFrameBlocks;
i32 nUnitFrameColumns;
i32 nUnitFrameSize;
child UnitFrameBlock [count=nUnitFrameBlocks];
}

struct UnitFrameBlock [preload=1]
{
u32 m_dwIndex;
cstr[len=64] m_strCode;


u32 m_nFRAType;
u32 m_nUnit_HP;
float m_fDefGap;
float m_fDefFacing;
float m_fMoveRate_Seed;
float m_fHeight;
float m_fWidth;
u32 m_nMoney;
u32 m_nStdPrice;
u32 m_nStdPoint;
u32 m_nGoldPoint;
u32 m_nKillPoint;
u32 m_nProcPoint;
u32 m_nStoragePrice;
u32 m_nRepPrice;
u32 m_bDestroy;
u32 m_bRepair;
cstr [len=64] m_strDFHead;
cstr [len=64] m_strDFUpper;
cstr [len=64] m_strDFLower;
cstr [len=64] m_strDFArms;
cstr [len=64] m_strDFShoulder;
cstr [len=64] m_strDFBack;
cstr [len=64] m_strDFBtA;
cstr [len=64] m_strDFBtS;
}

its work sir. i can editing HP and other, but before file size of UnitFrame.dat is 3kb after i edited file size change to 16kb so ZoneServer cant run..?
what wrong sir?

anyone know, how to search header for client side??? :

 

[lifestream]

you cant search it.. it doesn't exist.


the header for zoneserver was possible since it had debug database ... you don't have it for the client.
But there is this ancient sourcecode... it has all the definitions and structs that help somewhat at least.


also if file-size changes - you need to hex edit and delete all extra added bytes at the end.


armors should be something like armoritem_fld or such.. since upper,lower etc are identical.

u can just search for _fld and cycle through until u find right one.

overall its quite simple to convert them over to the structorian.

int = i32
float = float
char + size = cstr + size
byte = i8
int16 = i16
bool = i8
double = double
unsigned int = u32

and if there is anythign else like _mon_block etc... that's the name of another struct in the header.. just search for it.

so, header for client really doesn't exist???
:
then, how i can create strs for client??
it was so hard to create the right strs for client, it's possible to create it, but it's not as accurate as server side which have header from zoneserver...
:

 

[lifestream]

that's when you use the old sourcecode (tho they dont match new versions and only give u few hits for some files).
Thats when real skill matters. You have to test and use ur imagination and figure out what each byte or group of bytes does, compare to the server side values etc.

Thats why if you search you only find server side ones that are complete. Never client strs.

 

[novanakal]

client have a header files. but for find it, its more difficult more than server side
first, you must unpack .bin file to full sources

it's confuse me :/:
is it really exist or not? both of you have different opinion :/:
i already have unpacked bin version, what's more???
still i can't figure it out, i have try that ida pro in unpacked bin,...
still can't find header for client...

 

[novanakal]

Unpack the bin not just with IDA PRO..
you can see the all Sources from BIN here

[Bombillo]

Hello, I have a question... wonder from where the (repeat 8,10,200, etc)?
Thanks! :

 

[novanakal]

look at the first page ..
see this

 char m_strItemlist[200][64];

its mean

repeat 200
{ str[len=64] char m_strItemlist; }

 

[Bombillo]

:O: I understood!
Thanks Nova :

i have a problem nova , i do my weaponitem.strs but i get this errorView attachment 121574





this is my weaponitem.str



Sorry for big post!

version?

Your WeaponItemBlocks not match with count of your Child count

See this

u32 WeaponitemBlocks;
with this
Child Weaponitem [count=[B]WeaponItemBlocks[/B]];

thanks so much man, this solved my problem, now works perfectly!

thanks so much man, this solved my problem, now works perfectly!

All right, but now i have just more one litle question novanakal. How to input this new str file to my script, i try just put in my script but i got error so i change the name and change extension strs to .dat , this solved the error, but now my zone stay in loading and my pc lock and i need restart the system. This dont happen whit old file .

My pc config:

i7 2600k 3.7g
8 gb ram
windows 8
9500 gt 1gb

 

[lifestream]

you have any idea at all what you are doing? Why would you ever even put the strs to your scripts and rename it to dat?

Do you know what strs is for?

 

[tiagogbr]

about strs files?not , for this i am her to learn!

But in my script folder ,have a weaponitem.dat and a weaponitem_str.dat, so i just make a new and put in the place of weaponitem_str.dat with the same extension.

Obs: i get all str files from member bobilo and i replace my storelist.dat with the same mode but i dont change the extension and i dont have any errors, but with weaponitem i have error with the two modes, leaving extension . str i get this error:


If i change to .dat, my Zoneserver just stay in loading and my pc lock.

Thanks for all is trying help me and sorry my very bad english. i from Brazil!^^ See you in world cup!

strs are to edit the dat files with structorian.. then you save the edited file. you don't rename or place the strs to the server scripts.
