I'm not a expert but make sure you aren't changing the size of media.pk2 when you edit it.

you could at least tell us what you did lol. that way, i could figure out what you COULD be doing wrong (have just started messing with items).

I opened itemdata.txt. Find GM armor codes. Copied them. Than looked for my 7 degree armors and change them to GM armors. And to save the size of txt I copeid cos/c_horse1.ddj(or something like that) to something which our server doesnt have (like pegasus.ddj etc.)..I made file size same as the normal than I put it in to Media.pk2..That is all I have done.. :banghead:

Ah. so you changed "item\china\man_item\heavy_07_HA_super.bsr " for head into "item\china\man_item\heavy_07_ha.bsr" for head, etc for the rest? i think you just have to change the .bsr, not the entire line o.O

THen you should just change the .bsr codes.
how you "put" it in media.pk2?

Okay, well here would be the exact process you should take:

1. Open itemdata.txt
2. Find your 7D armor
3. Copy the appropriate armor code over the BSR path for each piece.

Code: Select all

item\china\man_item\heavy_07_ha_super.bsr
item\china\man_item\heavy_07_sa_super.bsr
item\china\man_item\heavy_07_ba_super.bsr
item\china\man_item\heavy_07_la_super.bsr
item\china\man_item\heavy_07_aa_super.bsr
item\china\man_item\heavy_07_fa_super.bsr
(for girls, you should use "\woman_item\")

4. For adding extra space, I suggest you search for "worldcup". You will find the World Cup event items which are a pretty safe bet because I doubt they would ever reuse them for another event. Look for

Code: Select all

0   xxx   item\etc\drop_ch_eventbox.bsr   item\etc\e060607_worldcup_g.ddj   xxx

and replace it with

Code: Select all

0   xxx   xxx   xxx   xxx
(Note that for adding extra space you do not need to copy shorter resource names over the old ones like it sounds like you did. All you have to do is type an xxx over the old path and it will nullify it.)

5. Now save the file as "itemdata.mod" and open it up in your hex editor.
6. Right click -> Properties on itemdata.txt (the old file) and look at its file size in bytes. Now in your hex editor, look at how many bytes itemdata.mod is. With HexEdit it should be in the lower right of the frame. Subtract the file size in bytes of itemdata.mod from the file size in bytes of itemdata.txt to get how many bytes of null padding you need. Put your cursor at the end of the file and go Edit -> Fill. Then type in the number of bytes of null padding you need and hit okay. Finally save the file and inject it back in to Media.pk2.

This whole guide assumes you are of course working with an up to date itemdata.txt file. Re-extract it just to be sure.

Sorry if this is REALLY off topic,

I feel ashamed, i've been wondering for like 2 months.

^rofl i got it in 30 seconds, when i really looked at it. i remember holding alt+ (number) to get something. Then i saw F in cruror's sig, so i knew it was hex, so i thought if i converted Hex-> Decimals, then alt+ the deci number, i'll probably get cruror.
