Adding new maps in v15

**pongex** · 06-01-15

I have a v15 Flyff
I have successfully updated v15 Maps to v19
(note: what i mean by updated is changing not adding new ones, so basically I have the v19 Flaris Map but still don't have traseia, dark traseia, kalgas dungeon etc..)

So I tried adding Traseia in CoreServer.ini

Spoiler:

But an error occured

Spoiler:

So I tried to copy mdlDyna from the v19 client using Flyff ResEditor and put it inside my v15 Resource, But then I also get an error.. I understand for example I cannot use v19 propitem since there are more columns that in v15, but for this error, can someone explain to me the missing files? so I can change them to make them compatible with my v15. Thanks.
WARNING: THERE IS A LOT IN INSIDE

You need to do an lot more then that. You need to define those in an .h file.
Also make sure they exist inside Model Folder.

Yeah, what @raventh1984 said. You can't get tell the server "Hey, please display map ID 266" if the server/client has no idea what map that's supposed to be.

I gave you this link a little while ago, maybe look at it and try again.

How to make your v19 *.rgn file work on your v15 server:

How to make your v19 *.dyo file work on your v15 server:

So, in summary, what do you need to do?

1) MANUALLY edit all the *.rgn files and change all of the monster spawns in the new maps to v15 monsters, or just remove all monster spawns (temporarily) until you get the map themselves to work.
2) CHOOSE between the two options: Import v19 character files so that v19 NPCs show up in the new areas, or just remove them completely until you actually get the maps to work.
3) LOOK at the first link I've posted. There is a lot more to adding a map than just adding it to CoreServer.ini, since there are many other files that must also be edited (in your Resource folder, to be duplicated to your Client folder once the edits are complete). You might even be able to get away with just copying the v19 world.inc, defineWorld.h, and world.txt.txt files.

After you do this, then continue on your efforts to implement v19 monsters. And as mentioned several times, due to file format changes, is a much harder task than just adding a world, so, you know, baby steps.

Sorry for the tough love but I know I've told you all of this before via PM. But I thought I would elaborate so that anyone attempting do a similar task would have an idea of how to do it.

I have done that too. sorry for not adding that in my first post.
I replaced the v15 with the one from v19 using reseditor. still no luck.

EDIT: @Cuvvvie, Thanks for that elaborate explanation.
I now know that I have made a mistake.

"That the map I copied doesn't contain any v19 .rgn and .dyo since I copied them from a client. I thought there would be no problems since the .rgn and .dyo I copied are from the v15 files."
But I guess it doesn't work as what I supposed it was.

About this "So, finally, what do you need to do?"
1) Skip. I like the new monsters =)
2) I'll import the v19 characters and monsters
3) Yes I have edited those files along with CoreServer.ini and
"You might even be able to get away with just copying the v19 world.inc, defineWorld.h, and world.txt.txt files."
this is True too, I was able to start my server with just copying them and I was able to open client without problems but there are no changes (I suppose, or I guess I wasn't able to check them out.).

But for starters, what files should be change in order for them to work (changing v19 npc and monsters)?
I don't necessary need all of them now and how to edit them.
I'm good with you guys telling me the file names of the things I need to change and I'll try to change them and understand them using winmerge.
Thanks.

Incase you haven't seen it, please read my updated post.

And for now, please just don't use reseditor. While you are in the middle of getting something to work, it's completely OK just to copied the modified files from your Resource into your client folder.

The game will see these files and read them first, and simply ignore the original copy inside the *.res file. You're probably doing the reseditor thing fine, but it's a good idea to both make the edits easier to implement as well as eliminate a potential variable as to why you're not able to get this to work.

If you still can't get it, I will spend some time either tomorrow or Wednesday implementing a v19 map into my test server just to make sure I can get it to work in case I'm actually pushing you further down the wrong path.

- Yes I have seen your updated post, that's why I also edited my reply.

- Sorry, What I meant from my previous post is that I use reseditor to extract the files from v19 so I could see the changes made from all the updates made by flyff and try to apply them in v15.

- So this part makes me wonder if everything I learned is wrong.. I thought that in order for client to work under my server, the files inside .res files should be the same as the one inside the resource folder. so basically, I haven't touch my client folder, aside from the .res files, world and model folder. Am I doing something wrong? But one thing is for sure, the server isn't working so I'm going to stick with that first and fix the client after.

If you still can't get it, I will spend some time either tomorrow or Wednesday implementing a v19 map into my test server just to make sure I can get it to work in case I'm actually pushing you further down the wrong path.
- Ok. Thanks for always taking your time with my problems =)

btw, I know this would be a lot of work, and I would like to start now so I could atleast lessen the workload before the start of your lectures so I could understand more of what you are talking about.

could give a few list of files which I should change or which is related to the new maps..
(note: I have read the link before, so I made all the changes there, but I guess there are more but I don't have any idea which)

EDIT: ok i'm good with the list of files. trying to edit them now.

So yeah, I basically did what I said to do and it worked. http://puu.sh/egjlx/916dbc52ff.jpg

1) Copied WdRartesia from v19 client to my v15 resource.
2) Extracted the WdRartesia.res file
3) Removed all of the lines starting with "respawn" in the .rgn file
4) Didn't need to edit .dyo since there are no NPCs in trazzy
5) Copied the WdRartesia folder with edited *.rgn file into v15 client
6) Copied defineWorld.h, world.inc, and world.txt.txt from v19 client to v15 client and v15 resource
7) Added the line "4 0 0 5 5 00 00" to CoreServer.ini
