[Guide] Placing Monster Spawns

[Lwdmaster2]

where to find the max spawn per spawn
i saw some spawn 10 per spawn some 3 1 but could not find where to set it.

What issue are you having in your first post as i cant tell from your screenshots.

Second question you can add more dmm on the same line as the orginal then add the cords and names into them.

 

[Lwdmaster2]

ok i will try to do so

Ncount Portfile   Time in ms Portfile      time in ms
     0   coram02  1              dmm02_0   100



for dmm02_1  

Ncount Portfile   Time in ms   Portfile      time in ms   PortFile     time in ms 
     0   coram02  2              dmm02_0   100            dmm02_1   100

Right

and in SPT name the cords

This Guide will be compatible with 2.1.5-2.2.3.2

Placing Monster spawns can be a lot of work depending on the number of new spawns you wish to make.

Lets start with elf_skyA02 for an example



You require a elf_skyA02-[BLOCK].dat

This should have all the monster you require and it will load the elf_skyA02m01.dat.

For me elf_skyA02m01.dat contains a monster code and the elf_skyA02-[BLOCK].dat will contain spawn times and secondary dmm monsters to call that you can set in the spt file.

You also require a elf_skyA02.spt

The spt file contains the monster.dat name that has the mob code inside and then the spt will spawn it ingame depending on the cords you set.

Copy a map that already has working monsters then copy its monster m.dat files and Block.dat

Rename the Block.dat like this

mapname-[BLOCK].dat

rename the m.dat if you want but it isn't necessary the m.dat files as it will be simpler this way you can rename them on a later date.

Open up your spt file and start filling in the cords a long with the m.dat name and dmm name.

This is how the Block.dat should look like with only 3 m.dat files linked

This is how many mobs should be in game if you have set it up correctly

The number can change randomly depending on how the zone spawns every thing. Restart your zone server a few times and you will notice it will spawn 0-8 randomly if you set up the server to load 3/6 mobs.

If you see any errors with this please let me know and i will correct it.

Here are the files for this map elf_skyA02 for the few mobs i did. They will spawn flems ^^

Nice tutorial Working

this is my error

what? is the server do you use?

 

[Dadj Dadjey]

Can somebody please make a video guide of this one? i'm more of a watcher than a reader :/

 

[GreatDay]

sir , your file is corrupt when i want to extract that ..
can you help me please ?

 

[rfan72]

sir, how to decrease monster spawn ?

 

[ammandes]

mon_block.dat if iam not wrong. in that tables have amount of monster

 

[rfan72]

where ?

 

[ammandes]

oh sorry my mistake.

I give you example.... look @ my pict.
1.you must know,where your monster coordinat.
2.when you get coordinat.or near with coordinat.look @ what file.for example coram21 in cora.spt
3.and then edit coram21.dat

REMOVED

 

[NotGod]

replacing monster spawn will see at .spt file mon_block for add new monster in the map

Example:

coram06 to mon_block search coram06 to spt file and you will see there coordinate of the monster

 

[Agungg]

soo if i want move coordinate spawn monster in spt file ?
in the bottom figure , with place name m.dat ?

 

[Sushi2k7]

Is in the monster str file _mstrCode equal to the monster id?

and did somebody already searched for the aba (0920B) in neutral zones and would tell me in which files i can edit them?

 

[listenscream]

thanks before for your tutorial,but i have question,how to change monster code or replacing monster ? after i change value in m_strCode in elf_skyA02m01.dat i'm get error open zone server
