The game loops through these items and reads them in, to help prevent hacking and to optimise loading you usually cut down the loading by simplifing the solution.
So the game reads in only what it needs to for that version, the trouble is us being us we always want more, so to add something new you have to change the amount of loading cycles it performs for each object type. Its not easy to trace someone elses program when its in a high level language without comments, let alone assembler but its not impossible.
But when ive traved all the functions inside the main.exe and the references etc.. it should be alot easier to deactivate things that wont work with a 97 server and make a less buggy client.

This what you are doing its hard :P , congrats, i will wait for a beta release, i have 110.000 users so i can put a little "test" :P

Dude i agree with that, I am still developing my own 99 server, I really don't want to release it until I am happy that its portable to other people mahcines and I have gotton alot of the bugs out alo made it more customisable.

I do hope you release something nice, I'm sure you will :)

Well it crosses over several thread this work, im picking up on common problems and first finding the sub procedures that deal with them, then documenting how to make the changes and how the changes take effect, i dont want to release justa main.exe or a list of hex codes to change i want to release a mini manual on how to edit your main.exe with al lthe common references mapped out. Im currently 5% done. so if you have a specific problem that you arnt sure where it is post the problem here and ill tell you where it lies so you can either do it ureself or wait for the release.

Well it crosses over several thread ....

Very nice indeed! And intruder5 if you are darkav or don't, but know how to add monters why you don't post a tutorial here... Like I said in other post.

Not everyone here is dumb ass noobs, some of us just need a guide for work on it. Even you doesn't born with asm knowlegge, you have to learn with something or someone...

Easy is : to come here and say nasty things showing bad attitude...

Hard is : teaching ppl what you know watch some of them possible do a better job than the teacher... don't you agree?

Maybe if "those who release stuff 2 years ago" care to teach maybe, just maybe that "useless community digging same shit over and over" could be developing other add ons, for example put codes to make golden archer to work, or have the knowledge to try add darklord in 97 series, or adding M shortcut in 97 mains...

And about darkav releases (just in case intruder5 is not him) I saw many ppl here deeply thanks him in posts... So his "beserker barrage" attitude is not well justified... Noobs will exist in any game, forum or place you go.

And even you having knowledge about how to make the wheel spinning don't give you the right to threat ppl like garbage...

Darkav know this, I'm one who likes a lot your job, and honestly always look forward for your releases, as many ppl here... If you don't receive all credits you deserve for many users here, you receive credits for others... I guess knowing so much of "things" you should know this, right?

so, any idea of how to add new monsters :P ?

i have realy much problems with that guide :/

Cyber love has written a nice guide on adding monsters for 99b and Sarovek has produced one for 97 so all u gotta do is find them.

Not really, one of the biggest mistakes of cyberlova was = posting darkavs project without telling him on vzkj...
