How did they edit the Pk files to show 9th deg gear?

PureOwnage · Post by **PureOwnage** » Tue Feb 06, 2007 8:18 am

Just wondering, because it looks fun. I'm sure they downloaded the 9th deg .pk files from a version of KSRO and plugged them into the ISRO version or something of that nature. While backing up the origional ISRO sprites just incase things got buggy. If I'm right let me know. If I'm wrong please feel free to correct me as I am very interested in this. I soo want to be able to play looking at my character in 9th deg equipment and a 9th deg weapon.

It's pretty easy to do actually. All of the 9th degree textures and models are already stored in the media.pk2 and data.pk2 files. You just need to search data.pk2 for the path and filename of each item you want to switch, then open media.pk2 in a hex editor and do a find/replace for each item.

I did it for my blade before. Replace all instances of item/china/weapon/blade_06.bsr (and .ddj) with item/china/weapon/blade_09.bsr (and .ddj). I haven't gotten my armor to switch yet though. I've heard of people turning their wolves into horses, but I've been unsuccessful. My goal is to turn my wolf into Tiger Girl hahahaha.

Unfortunately it's only a client-side change, so other people won't see it. However, when you make a change, everyone with that item will be changed as well.

Is it possible to replace the SRO textures with the WoW textures? :shock:

I have no idea. I guess you could try. If it's even possible, you'd extract data.pk2, replace sro textures with wow textures, and compress it again. Not likely to work though, but maybe.

If you want to find the paths to the different textures, search through data.pk2. weapons, sheilds, and clothing are under res/item/china/..... wolves, horses, tiger girl, isy, and the like are under res/cos/......

Lol it was a joke but whoa it will work.
If i knew how to do that i'd use Ryoko's nightsaber mount instead of my horse. -.-

If you can read the paths to different items, like the 6th degree blade: res\item\china\weapon\blade_06.bsr (and blade_06.ddj) you can use xvi32 to do a find/replace swapping 06 with 09 for example to get the 9th degree blade.

There's a couple options you want to set in the replace menu on xvi32 but I forget what they are.

So what your saying is that you can change the apearance of armor to look like something else,
You should make a guide PR0METHEUS so i can do this it would be very much apreciated or send me a measage on how

mcclane1 · Post by **mcclane1** » Wed Feb 07, 2007 7:48 am

OK i got it and my winrar does allow me to view the files just now what is the file path for armor?

Well yes you can change your 5th degree armor to look like 9th degree. You can change your 8th degree protectors to look like 1st degree garments. There's a lot you can change, not just clothing. However, it is client-side only, so no one else on the server will see your new look. Additionally, if you change something, you will see that change in anyone else that has what you changed. Meaning if you swap 5D armor with 9D armor, and I'm wearing 5D, I'll look like 9D as well on your screen.

Since you are making changes to the client, It's possible that Joymax would detect it and consider it a hack and ban you. I'm not sure on that, since it's just graphical changes. Therefore, I won't be creating a guide at this time.

I didn't think to check if the pk2 files have the nude skins in them, and I'm not home to check right now. If they are, then yes you'd be able to make everyone nude - well down to underwear anyway.

From what I understand, you can only switch textures that are in the same folder with each other. In that case, you should be able to switch wolf with a horse or tiger girl, but not with armor or a spear. However, I have not been successful changing my wolf anyway.

Cool. I have a friend in game she's lv. 80 and let her friend use her account.
That guy used diffenrent silkroad.exe that ahve the nude patch on..IDK not sure she send me the pci being naked and told me that

it's a hack, it's illegal, it allows you to see 8th degree final set(lv70-76) as 9th degree so in pvp you can easily tell who's lower lvl even if they all wearing 8th degree and kill them 1st.

What do you mean it's not the client? When you edit the .pk2 files, you are editing the client. A client application consists of more than just the .exe file. It's all of the files that are loaded on your computer as part of the software installation.

Unless I misunderstood you.

Vandango · Post by **Vandango** » Wed Feb 07, 2007 6:49 pm

The Client is the EXE

when u open the sro folder u get
alod of icions like Silkroad.ICON

PK2 Files are the Particles.pk2

its a differnt Extension then client

The Client is referred to the EXE files which is called sro_client
pk2 files are seperate

Silkroad Online Forums

How did they edit the Pk files to show 9th deg gear?
