Forum :: Client Editing :: Adding New GFX files.

I'm trying to add new Weps using new GFX files but it doesnt seem to work. I have not been able to find a guide that helps with my problem, All the guides show how to replace not add new GFX files.

When I add them in using reshacker do I add them in as bitmap. Because I've done everything perfectly except when i equip the wep my player goes invisable.. So somebody please post something with advice or an actual guide that shows me.

I seem to be having a similar problem.

I have added the resource for the item (New set of wings) in each of the gfx files it would appear in. 19, 20, and 23. My only problem is, how do I know what gfx id to use?

There is a maths equation for it.

Say item one is 101 and item two is 121 and so forth. We know there is a gap of 20 between each item. Those are the frames and then the extra gap of nothingness.

I cannot remember the equation for it but I'm sure you can work that out. I haven't the time to sit here with a pen and paper at the moment to do it for you but I have done it before and it was pretty simple.

I've done it before :P You just have to look at the relationship between all of the items that are in the resource file and how it inter-links with the pub files :p

If money doesn't grow on trees, then why do banks have branches?

Trust me done that. You can find the new GFX file your new item should have by looking at the last item in your GFX files. Example would be if it was oron that was last in your male armour GFX then all you gotta do is go to pub edit and find oron. See what the GFX number is then you know thats thelast GFX number so the new one is just +1.

Or it may the the first two numbers that show up in your reshacker. Example file 8991 -> Gfx number = 89

Ive done all this but my new items don't seem to show on my character.

I will try that as soon as I can. If I continue to have problems, I will return. Thanks.

Okay i've figured it out.

Okay it is know that you add a new resourse in res-hacker using bitmap files. You save each indivdual GFX file as a new resource number. But here is the important thing. You have to round off the file. The last GFX number could of been 9274, But if your adding a new item the next GFX number would have to be 9301, next bmp is 9302 - 9303 and so on for the whole 17 bitmaps for a new item. Meaning the GFX number in pubedit for the new item is 93.

To find out the GFX to use in pubedit for that new item/NPC you just added you simply just take notice of what the last NPC/Item was in the GFX file on res-hacker and then find that data on pubedit ( That will now tell you the GFX number being used ) So you know thats the last GFX number beingused. For the new item all you do is make the number +1.

You do the save with ICON number aswell.

I'm testing all these things now see if i actually get it working then i'll make a tutorial.

Cool, I will be looking forward to it. At this moment, I am working on trying to figure it out as well. I will test your theory.

Okay my previous post is the right information on how to add new items. If you can do that succesfully then you should be able to add anything else to your server.
