Questions regarding Item Creation +4
Hello,
So I was wondering if it is possible to create your own items in game?
Now, before you rush ahead and click the reply button, let me explain a few things first =)
1. I am not asking to have a custom model, or even graphic for said new item - it will use an existing model/graphic that already exists in the game
2. The item will be sold on a vendor
3. The item will be sold for the same price it was purchased for - HOWEVER - when taking it in and out of the warehouse - it would cost nothing (or very little, for example 1g)
So, from what I understand of the game files so far, I would need to copy a item type first, so lets say #19 (the potion type)
Now, the next # I would need is the type of potion, now this must be called from somewhere else .. but where?
I ask because if I knew where this was being called from, then you could simply keep adding #'s to the type id's under a specific category while using the same model, only editing the name and location.
Then the next step would be to find the vendor IDs and place the new item on that vendor (this is already possible so, no worries there)
However, this last step could be tricky - if we can create the item with an existing model - then it should be np at all to adjust its worth - however does anyone know where the function is that lets us adjust the cost of items being taken in and out of the warehouse resides? they must be somewhere...
**Update: Also from what I understand, if you try to add a custom item, it causes the server to crash. Is this true?, and does this only happen when trying to add a completely custom item (ie: new model / etc)?
--------------
So that is my pet project for now - the +4 portion of the post is below:
>>>
Q1: How to alter spawn times of bosses? (ie: from 1hr to 15mins as an example)
Q2: How to edit a item given as a quest reward without changing every other item of the same type in the game? (ie: a pair of level 30 hellraisers set to legendary given as a quest reward, how to make that quest reward level 25, but not change every hellraiser in the game to level 25?)
Q3: Why does GRB work, but doesn't give points when people kill mobs?
Q4: Finally, Is anyone working on a proper way to increase the level cap?
Thanks so much in advance,
Cheers,
Magister.

On the client you will need to edit Item.SData and NPCQuest.SData. On the Game Server folder NPCQuest.SData and in the DB PS_GameDefs.dbo.Items.
