[Req]Monster Drop Tutorial...

[ADDKiD]

Ok, so basically, the name says it all, I need a tutorial on how to change what drops. I was told by Jensen, its Server side, if so, under what .cpp or .h? And what does it look like, because I've had one hell of a time searching for it..

in game.ccp
write in find Slime.
Search untill you find something like this :

case 1: // Slime, Giant-Ant, Amphis, Rabbit, Cat
switch (iDice(1,3)) {
case 1: iItemID = 1; break; // Dagger
case 2: iItemID = 8; break; // ShortSword
case 3: iItemID = 59; break; // LightAxe
}
break;

and there you go.

and if you add there more cases then your dices will change.
example if you want to add 2 more cases then you're dice will be (iDice(1,5))

Thanks for your quickness, I was getting impatient. I want to get my server setup right...


case 1: // Slime, Giant-Ant, Amphis, Rabbit, Cat
switch (iDice(1,3)) {
case 1: iItemID = 1; break; // Dagger
case 2: iItemID = 8; break; // ShortSword
case 3: iItemID = 59; break; // LightAxe
}
break;
So, if I added say 6 more it'd look like this...

case 1: iItemID = 1; break; // Dagger
case 2: iItemID = 8; break; // ShortSword
case 3: iItemID = 59; break; // LightAxe
case 4: iItemID = (#); break; // (Item)
case 5: iItemID = (#); break; // (Item)
case 6: iItemID = (#); break; // (Item)
case 7: iItemID = (#); break; // (Item)
case 8: iItemID = (#); break; // (Item)
case 9: iItemID = (#); break; // (Item)

Yes and dice is


switch (iDice(1,9))

It's actually very simple, but If you still don't understand I suggest using Drajwar's XML based Drop List

Its very useful when you don't got access to sources

Thanks alot. I think I might try both. I'm thinking about releasing server files with Angels + Crafting working. But I think that'd bring back more noob servers and such. Don't want that now... Max lvl 519/600 gayness...
