right click->Follow in dump-> Selection
-
In the hex dump below, Right click on the first ascii byte "." -> Binary -> Edit
uncheck keep size
backspace until there are no dots
type: QuestBookCaller
Click Ok
-
Back in the main cpu window
right click->go to->expression->43B5C7
double click where it says push yourunnablename.#
when it pops up it should say push #
change it to PUSH 5E5112
right click->copy to executable-->all modifications
right click->save file


Now unpack default.mrs
open lobby.xml in a notepad
look for

	<!-- BMBUTTON : 상점버튼 -->
	<BMBUTTON item="ShopCaller" parent="Lobby">
		<BUTTONLOOK>NormalBmButtonLook</BUTTONLOOK>
		<BOUNDS>
			<X>289</X>

Ollydbg arent even needed, had this on my server years ago.

[Nayr438]

w/o editing the runnable it will show as a regular square button in the bottom left hand of the screen

[WhiteMoga]

Why does it not work if you use the calls already implemented for MonsterBookCaller? Do you know? I haven't looked much into it.

[Nayr438]

you can use MonsterBookCaller and it will show up but it just shows as a Grey rectangle button that says Monster Book, that cant be edited

edit: Nevermind, I got it to work. All I had to do was restart the server. Awesome tutorial and even better than I expected. This is WAY cooler than that ugly button. You're the best.

[Aimed]

you forget to tell the dimentions of the images you use need to be the same as the
<W> x </W> and <H> x </H>

for example, for W 100 and for H 50
your image will need to be 100 pixels wide and 50 high. or else your image will deform.
