how to change instance dungeons [spoon-fed]

[ravenvannato]

Monsters corrected see below. First off do not flame or argue or this will get closed/deleted by the mods.
That being said here is how to make all the instance dungeons non instance. First look at the normal code in the PartyDungeon.Lua (I am only going to show it on one of the dungeons but this works for all of them.)

AddDungeon( "WI_INSTANCE_OMINOUS" )
--{
	SetClass( CLASS_NORMAL )
	SetLevel( 1, 130 )
	SetCoolTime( MIN(30) )
	--SetTeleportPos( ID_NORMAL, 1358, 102, 1315 )
	--SetTeleportPos( ID_MIDBOSS, 695, 90, 684 )
	--SetTeleportPos( ID_BOSS, 695, 100, 684 )
	SetMonster( ID_NORMAL, "MI_PRICKANT04", true, 1280, 101, 1640 )
	SetMonster( ID_NORMAL, "MI_MAULMOUSE04", true, 1234, 101, 1393 )
	SetMonster( ID_NORMAL, "MI_CRIPESCENTIPEDE04", true, 1089, 101, 1590 )
	SetMonster( ID_MIDBOSS, "MI_LYCANOS01", true, 1078, 101, 1359 )
	SetMonster( ID_BOSS, "MI_VEMPAIN01", true, 1079, 101, 1457 )
--}

Change that to this and voila no more instance dungeons.

AddDungeon( "WI_DUNGEON_OMINOUS" )
--{
	SetClass( CLASS_NORMAL, CLASS_MASTER, CLASS_HERO )
	SetLevel( 1, 200)
	SetCoolTime( MIN(0) )
	--SetTeleportPos( ID_NORMAL, 1358, 102, 1315 )
	--SetTeleportPos( ID_MIDBOSS, 695, 90, 684 )
	--SetTeleportPos( ID_BOSS, 695, 100, 684 )
	SetMonster( ID_NORMAL, "MI_PRICKANT04", true, 1280, 101, 1640 )
	SetMonster( ID_NORMAL, "MI_MAULMOUSE04", true, 1234, 101, 1393 )
	SetMonster( ID_NORMAL, "MI_CRIPESCENTIPEDE04", true, 1089, 101, 1590 )
	SetMonster( ID_MIDBOSS, "MI_LYCANOS01", true, 1078, 101, 1359 )
	SetMonster( ID_BOSS, "MI_VEMPAIN01", true, 1079, 101, 1457 )
--}

Now just in case that is not clear to everyone. Change this,

AddDungeon( "WI_INSTANCE_OMINOUS" )

To this.

AddDungeon( "WI_DUNGEON_OMINOUS" )

You can also change this,

SetCoolTime( MIN(30) )

To this.

SetCoolTime( MIN(0) )

Then you have no cooldown as well.

Then change this,

SetClass( CLASS_NORMAL )

To this

SetClass( CLASS_NORMAL, CLASS_MASTER, CLASS_HERO )

That will allow anyone access to the dungeon.

Now onto the boss monsters you will need to open each dungeon in world and look for the RGN file. I will give you the codes for each dungeon. Add these codes in for each dungeon. Just for reference 65535 is the re-spawn rate in seconds feel free to change these.

Now after you add these to the appropriate RGN files add the files to the .RES files in each corresponding world, then move both the .RES and .RGN files to the server and client folder. Open and enjoy, no need to kill the totems to spawn the boss for each dungeon.

Now you say you want larger number of bosses to spawn well my friend here we go a small breakdown of the .RGN file code.

Number of bosses spawned.
Respawn rate.

This was done without beast once you learn .rgn editing beast sucks.

I hope all of you enjoy the time it took me to get this done. If any of this does not make since feel free to ask me for help. But keep it on topic please.

Nice guide man
Ive got a question, in the code it says:
SetMonster( ID_MIDBOSS, "MI_LYCANOS01", true, 1078, 101, 1359 )
The last 3 digits, does it mean Lycanos spawns on
X: 1078
Y: 101
Z: 1359
..?

 

[ravenvannato]

If i understand it correctly yes, so in theory if you are trying to add a blinkwing to just the boss you can by using the coordinates. If that is in fact what you where getting at.

 

[Jelle]

Yep thats what im trying to get at..
Would be good for custom dungeons..

 

[ravenvannato]

yes it would this will also help most to understand how to make new dungeons.

 

[devilmadz]

sir anyone know how to remove the party requirements to enter the dungeon???

 

[ravenvannato]

yes see the first post in this thread, that is exactly whats this describes.

 

[devilmadz]

what im saying is how can i go in dungeon without a party any idea how to do it?i already do that first post and my hero level 126 can go in the wilds but it needs a party to go in there

 

[ravenvannato]

change the word "INSTANCE" to "DUNGEON" without quotes. that opens the dungeons to be able to just walk in.

 

[Military]

Nice guide , I rather suggest a cooling time because I don't like the same person spamming the dungeon over and over.

 

[ravenvannato]

as far as i know everyone can go in at once now. now if only i could find out how to turn on or off mobs, then and only then will i be able to get the bosses working. as it stands now they do not show up.

 

[ravenvannato]

edit irrelevant post now.
just looking for how to edit the mobs on or off now.

 

[Jelle]

I fail to understand why there is hate, the guide does exactly what i said it does and is very clearly written. I also fail to see what V16 items have to do with my post. If you can see something clearly written wrong on my code please share. Especially since this is just a few things modified in the original v15 files. The file i noted at the start of this thread is for making the dungeon open, now what i am looking for is where to edit the spawnability of the bosses for the dungeons. Once i find that i will be able to clearly note in this same thread how to turn them on all the time. If you know where that file is then again please share.

Use Beast for mobs?

 

[ravenvannato]

Use Beast for mobs?

Shot you a PM about beast.

EDIT: If anyone uses this and gets the bosses to work post up what you did. please and thank you. I am going to bed been coding for 36 hours now.

 

[sidneydegeus]

Thanks!

One question though... What if I would want that dark illusion is unable to be used once you entered a instance?

Since I guess I would have to make a line that would be something like this?

setSkill ( ID_SKILL, "SI_ACR_SUP_DARKILLUSION", UNABLED )

Plus, I'd have to put the 'skill' part into the InstanceDungeonBase.lua file, I guess? Or atleast make a variable of it, right?

I am not that good with coding yet, since I started recently. So I am still having a hard time figuring out how and where to start to start and such. xD

 

[ravenvannato]

Monsters fixed see first post.

Thanks for writing this "spoon-fed" tutorial... also known as a decent tutorial. LMFAO
