Veki:
Hello, my name is Veki, i was play many fonline servers, and this days i was thinking to start something mine, something with new content. I was think to create "Vekiland" on this engine. I dont have experience in this, but i will try to learn and understend how to do it. I have many question becouse i was think to start everything from scratch, to not just edit some relise. I have everything on paper what i want to do. I was think to create something small for begining. world map, 2-3 encounters map, 2-3 towns, 2-3 dungeons, 5-6 quests, not all weapons and armors in use( i need to remove some weapons and armors, others to change icons, discriptions ), remove items what i dont need, also some change icons, few encounters, create some perks, put charisma into use, remove some skills what i think i dont need. I know is gonna be a lot work, time consume.

First question :It is better to edit fonline reloaded 2, remove all maps, some weapons, all quests, encounters, modife what have ...or is better to start from begining add one by one content, rip-add content only what i need??? what is simplier by your opinion.

No tutorials. Only questions, answers, own dev experience.

Text editor (I recommend Notepad++ with some plugin extensions), tools included to SDK.

FOCRAFT.MSG (tool is included to SDK)

--- End quote ---
proto\items\ and there you have .fopro files, descriptions are in FOOBJ.MSG.


--- Quote from: Veki on January 06, 2019, 04:06:26 pm ---How to create new perks?

--- End quote ---
_defines.fos, put your new perks into scripts or DLL extensions, descriptions are in FOGAME.MSG.

--- End quote ---
Easiest but dirty way: Make the empty desc line in FOGAME.MSG for it. Other way: scripting.

--- End quote ---
Depends where you want to use it. You can make exceptions in dialogs and/or in scripts.

--- End quote ---
Very similar way like for perks.


--- Quote from: Veki on January 06, 2019, 04:06:26 pm ---How to make shop and what they gonna spawn, timer?

--- End quote ---
Initial function for traders and what should happen with them in game's loop. Don't forget about critter's flags and dialogs.


--- Quote from: Veki on January 06, 2019, 04:06:26 pm ---How to make character skin? to add and remove characters skins?

--- End quote ---
CritterTypes.cfg for skins and proto\critters\*.fopro for constant defined critter's prototypes.


--- Quote from: Veki on January 06, 2019, 04:06:26 pm ---How to level cap characters, but experince points to continue?

--- End quote ---
Scripting and config.fos.

--- End quote ---
Same way like for adding skins.

After few more tries i found that cheats dont work on npcs, i mean if i use any `command on npc (control,crinfo,param,etc.) it does nothing or use it on me instead. I checked everything and i dont know what im doing wrong, maybe there is something i need edit in cheats.fos or other?
Its look like cheats is dissabled for npcs or cheats cant read npcs id

Please any hint?
