...

Have you tried creating more than 5 characters on an account?

 

[Ravenal]

hehe i cannot make more than 5 characters why?

 

[hcker2000]

Yep wrong file open but i still cant find it when i do [props

 

[Ravenal]

hmm let me add something to my mobile real fast relating to that...

 

[Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams]

Yep wrong file open but i still cant find it when i do [props

Change CharacterCreation.cs:442 to read:

[code:1] return (a = new HNetPlayerMobile());[/code:1]

 

[Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams]

hehe i cannot make more than 5 characters why?

Correct. So why then do you have the other two for loops?

 

[Ravenal]

okay this is what you do...


in serialize do this
[code:1]
writer.Write( (string)m_RareName );
[/code:1]

in deserialize

[code:1]
m_RareName = (string)reader.ReadString();
[/code:1]

 

[hcker2000]

Ok just for referance and for other people to learn from this is my current custom player mobile

[code:1]using Server;
using Server.Network;

namespace Server.Mobiles
{
public class HNetMobile : PlayerMobile
{
private string m_TravledFrom;

[CommandProperty( AccessLevel.GameMaster )]
public string TravledFrom
{
get{ return m_TravledFrom; }
set{ m_TravledFrom = value; }
}

public HNetMobile()
{
TravledFrom = "SomePlace";
}

public HNetMobile( Serial serial ) : base( serial )
{
}

public override void Deserialize( GenericReader reader )
{
base.Deserialize( reader );
int version = reader.ReadInt();

switch ( version )
{
case 0:
{
m_TravledFrom = reader.ReadString();
break;
}
}
}


public override void Serialize( GenericWriter writer )
{

base.Serialize( writer );

writer.Write( (int) 0 ); // version
writer.Write( m_TravledFrom );

}
}
}
[/code:1]

And This is my charatercreation

[code:1]
private static Mobile CreateMobile( Account a )
{
for ( int i = 0; i < 5; ++i )
if ( a == null )
return (a = new Mobile());


for ( int i = 0; i < 5; ++i )
if ( a == null )
return (a = new HNetMobile());

return null;
}

[/code:1]

hehe i not sure... but i guess it still works, so everyone has different ideas

 

[Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams]

Remove the first for loop.

Do yourself a favor and tear them out. That way they won't confuse you in the future.

 

[hcker2000]

Ok corrected the lines like u said and i still cant see them in the [props. Dose it matter that im checking a newly made admin account?

 

[Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams]

It...shouldn't. But you'll have to create the character from scratch. After having modified the scripts and restarting the server.

 

[hcker2000]

ok so my file looks like this now

[code:1]
private static Mobile CreateMobile( Account a )
{
for ( int i = 0; i < 5; ++i )
if ( a == null )
return (a = new HNetMobile());

return null;
}
[/code:1]

 

[hcker2000]

I got it I freaking GOT IT now if you could tell me how to set the variable from a script that would be vary nice wouldent it be some thing like mobile.TravledFrom = "my whoo haa hear"?

 

[Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams]

If you're in a method that has from as a Mobile then you can use the following:

[code:1]if (from is HNetMobile)
((HNetMobile) from).TravelledFrom="blahblahblah";[/code:1]

Well, once you've got "travelled" spelt properly...

 

[hcker2000]

Ok that works. Oh if your still around awakenlands whats your script look like to convert old players to the new playermobiles?

 

[Ravenal]

my converters sucks, i tend to wipe all the characters
