PHP script to Decode style

[john_d]

reason for this release is cause i wanna see if any of u find faults in it

function decode_style($r) {

      //get gender
    $gender_array = array('Male', 'Female', 'Male 2','Female 2','Male 3', 'Female 3');
    $style['Gender'] = $gender_array[round($r / hexdec(4000000))];
    //GET AURA
    $style['Aura'] = round(($r % hexdec(4000000)) / hexdec(200000));
    // hair 
    $style['Hair'] = round(($r % hexdec(4000000) % hexdec(200000) ) / hexdec(20000));
   
    //hair color
    $style['Hair_Color'] = round((($r % hexdec(4000000)) % hexdec(20000)) / hexdec(2000));
    
    // get face 
    $style['Face'] = round(((($r % hexdec(4000000)) % hexdec(20000)) % hexdec(2000)) / hexdec(100));
    
    // get rank
    $style['Class_Rank'] = round((((($r % hexdec(4000000)) % hexdec(20000)) % hexdec(2000)) % hexdec(100)) / 8 );
    
    // get class
    $class_array = array(4=>'Force Archer',5=>'Force Shielder',6=>'Force Blader',
    9=>'Warrior',10=>'Blader',11=>'Wizard',12=>'Force Archer',13=>'Force Shielder',14=>'Force Blader');

    $style['Class'] = (((($r % hexdec(4000000)) % hexdec(20000)) % hexdec(2000)) % hexdec(100)) -  (($style['Class_Rank'] -1) * 8) ;

    $style['Class_Name'] = $class_array[$style['Class']] ;
    return $style;
    
} 

how to use decode_style(STYLE);
returns an array

something like this

  [Gender] => Male
    [Hair] => 4
    [Hair_Color] => 6
    [Face] => 3
    [Class_Rank] => 1
    [Class] => 9
    [Class_Name] => Warrior

haha, kk testing..

[muochi]

very good, sir

[john_d]

updated:

added aura edit:

u can also reverse it to create new style codes.
warning: not all faces will work since most clients do not have some faces/hairs/colors... so better experiment 1st.

download??? nice style *.*

[02goswej]

Can you please explain what's going on in English, so i can apply this to other programming languages.

Thanks (I don't understand PHP very well Q_Q)

It's just a set of mathematical formulas to extract specific values from the class. Just take each line one at a time and pull it apart. $r is the class.

$style['Gender'] = $gender_array[round($r / hexdec(4000000))];

hexdec(4000000) = 3D0900
http://uk.php.net/manual/en/function.hexdec.php

So $r divided by 3D0900 (and then rounded) = your gender.

You can look up the other operators like modulus here.

You can tell no-one understands it as there are so few comments on what is one of the best posts here ;)

Thanks ALOT (again) LOL, ill try this right now :), only problem now T_T how do i get the remainder from windows calculator lol

easy as pie

NUMBER1 DIVIDE NUMBER2 =

[I]NUMBER3[/I].DECIMALS ...

SUBTRACT THE [I]NUMBER3[/I] AND MULTIPLE BY NUMBER2

Sample:

23 / 8 = 2.875
2.875 - 2 = 0.875
0.875 * 8 = 7

okay so, can you give me an example of working out the whole of a style, because i want to make sure it's correct, so what would this give you? Just the first two or three (Like sex, aura) would be enough to make me understand really, sorry lol >_<
Style example: 213934124

As you can see it goes 100% wrong when i do it, although i did it all as decimals as you can only get whole numbers when using Hexadecimal numbers

213934124 / 4000000 => 53.483531 - 53 => .483531 * 4000000 => % 1934124 'Gender
1934124   / 200000  => 09.67062  - 09 => .67062  * 200000  => % 134124 'Aura
134124    / 20000   => 06.7062   - 06 => .7062   * 20000   => % 14124 'Hair
14124     / 2000    => 07.062    - 07 => .062    * 2000    => % 124 'Hair Color
124       / 100     => 01.24     - 01 => .24     * 100     => % 24 'Face
24        / 8       => 03.00     - 03 => .00     * 8       => % 0 'Rank

[john_d]

u totally ignored the fact that it the whole numbers there are HEX not decimals. i only put 4000000 cause i was too lazy to type up their decimal values


gender :

   $style['Gender'] = $gender_array[round($r / hexdec(4000000))]; 

213934124 / 67108864 = 3.187866866588592529296875 = 3
- gender gets only the whole number ( ROUND IT )
- 3 would be female 2. ( array starts with 0 )

aura:

  $style['Aura'] = round(($r % hexdec(4000000)) / hexdec(200000)); 

213934124 / 67108864 = 3.187866866588592529296875 - 3 = * 67108864 =
12607532 / 2097152 = 6.0117397308349609375
= 6

same goes for the rest. it is just a repeat process just adding new values.
notes:
% mean find remainder
/ means divide
round means to get the whole number
() means calculate priority. inner-most comes first ie. (3nd cal((1st / cal) * 2nd cal ))

anyway here is the output of 213934124
[Gender] => Female 2
[Aura] => 6
[Hair] => 0
[Hair_Color] => 3
[Face] => 0
[Class_Rank] => 6
[Class] => 4
[Class_Name] => Force Archer

Thanks ALOT i understand now :)

But im hitting a snag in my program, and i don't understand why O_o

            Style = DataReader.GetValue(12)
            Gender = Style / 67108864
            Aura = (((Gender - CInt(Gender)) * 67108864) / 2097152)
            Hair = (((Aura - CInt(Aura)) * 67108864) / 131072)
            Color = (((Hair - CInt(Hair)) * 67108864) / 8192)
            Face = (((Color - CInt(Color)) * 67108864) / 256)
            Rank = (((Face - CInt(Face)) * 67108864) / 8)
            txtRank.Text = CInt(Rank)

when it gets to my variable color, it ALWAYS ends up as a whole number. meaning everything else (face and rank) become just 0.

I notice you don't carry the aura down to the hair color, could this be the problem?

Can you spot a problem? :S

[limpamesa]

Thanks jhon_d for this code. Very good.
02goswej seams you are trying to translate to vb or asp. If this is the case I have made a simple translation to asp:

<%
Function hexdec (sStyle)
hexdec=clng("&h" & sStyle)
End Function
%>
<%
Function decode_style (sStyle)
DIM gender_array(5)

'gender_array=Array(Male,Female,Male 2,Female 2,Male 3,Female 3)
gender_array (0) = "Male"
gender_array (1) = "Female"
gender_array (2) = "Male 2"
gender_array (3) = "Female 2"
gender_array (4) = "Male 3"
gender_array (5) = "Female 3"
'GET Gender
Gender= gender_array(round(sStyle / hexdec(4000000)))

'GET Aura
Aura = round((sStyle mod hexdec(4000000)) / hexdec(200000))
' hair
Hair = round((sStyle mod hexdec(4000000) mod hexdec(200000) ) / hexdec(20000))
'hair color
Hair_Color = round(((sStyle mod hexdec(4000000)) mod hexdec(20000)) / hexdec(2000))
' get face
Face = round((((sStyle mod hexdec(4000000)) mod hexdec(20000)) mod hexdec(2000)) / hexdec(100))
' get rank
Class_Rank = round(((((sStyle mod hexdec(4000000)) mod hexdec(20000)) mod hexdec(2000)) mod hexdec(100)) / 8 )
' get class
DIM class_array(14)
class_array (4) = "Force Archer"
class_array (5) = "Force Shielder"
class_array (6) = "Force Blader"
class_array (9) = "Warrior"
class_array (10) = "Blader"
class_array (11) = "Wizard"
class_array (12) = "Force Archer"
class_array (13) = "Force Shielder"
class_array (14) = "Force Blader"
sClass = (((( sStyle mod hexdec(4000000)) mod hexdec(20000)) mod hexdec(2000)) mod hexdec(100)) - ((Class_Rank -1) * 8)
Class_Name = class_array(sClass)
decode_style= "[Gender] => " & Gender & "<BR>" & "[Hair] => " & Hair & "<BR>" & "[Hair_Color] => " & Hair_Color & "<BR>" & "[Face] => " & Face & "<BR>" & "[Class_Rank] => " & Class_Rank & "<BR>" & "[Class] => " & sClass & "<BR>" & "[Class_Name] => " & Class_Name
End Function
%>

So you can test using:
<% response.write ( decode_style(12984740)) %>
and result is:
[Gender] => Male
[Hair] => 3
[Hair_Color] => 1
[Face] => 2
[Class_Rank] => 20
[Class] => 12
[Class_Name] => Force Archer
==============================
Or you can use sql analyzer to show rank 18 class:
use [SERVER01] -- or use [GAMEDB]
SELECT Name,Style from dbo.cabal_character_table WHERE
round(((((([Style] % (67108864)) % (131072)) % (8192)) % (256)) / 8 ),1)= 18

and even update class 18 to 20 :) :
update dbo.cabal_character_table
set [Style]=[Style]+16 where round(((((([Style] % (67108864)) % (131072)) % (8192)) % (256)) / 8 ),1)= 18

@limpamesa Nice Post

[02goswej]

Thanks for the help, just checked today but I fixed it a long time ago, adding more to it now, how would I rebuild the style after I have edited things like the rank/Hair etc

[john_d]

just reverse the math

[02goswej]

What's reverse of mod O_o

[cypher]

google is your friend when your logic is being exceeded

[02goswej]

All im finding on google with string "Reverse Modulus" is basically....Impossible ;P im retarded when in comes to complex maths :o (And i have been up since 5AM and just woken up now :P)
here is my VB Code for decoding the style:

            Style = DR.GetValue(12)
            Gender = Style / 67108864
            Aura = (Style Mod 67108864) / 2097152
            Hair = ((Style Mod 67108864) Mod 2097152) / 131072
            HColor = ((Style Mod 67108864) Mod 131072) / 8192
            Face = (((Style Mod 67108864) Mod 131072) Mod 8192) / 256
            Rank = ((((Style Mod 67108864) Mod 131072) Mod 8192) Mod 256) / 8
            PlayerClass = ((((Style Mod 67108864) Mod 131072) Mod 8192) Mod 256) - ((Rank - 1) * 8)

so in reverse would i be somthing like

Style = 2097152 * (Aura / 67108864) or would it be  (Aura Mod 67108864)

-02goswej

bump, Help please :S

[john_d]

all u have to do

create the value for each category ( hair, haircolor, face, gender, class, class rank )

then add them all ^^

[02goswej]

So using this code:

  Style = DR.GetValue(12)
            Gender = Style / 67108864
            Aura = (Style Mod 67108864) / 2097152
            Hair = ((Style Mod 67108864) Mod 2097152) / 131072
            HColor = ((Style Mod 67108864) Mod 131072) / 8192
            Face = (((Style Mod 67108864) Mod 131072) Mod 8192) / 256
            Rank = ((((Style Mod 67108864) Mod 131072) Mod 8192) Mod 256) / 8
            PlayerClass = ((((Style Mod 67108864) Mod 131072) Mod 8192) Mod 256) - ((Rank - 1) * 8)

it would be

NewStyle = Gender + Aura + Hair + HColor + Face + Rank + PlayerClass

Or not O_O, i tried this and it gives me an incorrect number hehe

[MarmotaXD]

hello could use calculations
most could not understand how to identify which type
hair, or auria the character is?
