************************************************** ******

This is a nifty little script. It takes common script change needs, and puts them all in an Item called the ShardControl.

I just know some clever scripters are going to improve on this thing, and add all kinds of stuff to it. That's cool. There is a gump that has plenty of room to add more stuff to it. (Sorry, no control of the features through the gump in this release, so you have to [props it.)

OK, as usual, back up your files, and only add this once you understand what files you are replacing and/or changing. Please don't mess up a file you spent a month perfecting with no backups!

INSTALLATION

If you prefer to make changes manually, here is the list of files, and what you might be able to do manually instead of installing the files included in the release.

Look for #region code identifying what sections were changed or added for Shard Control:
CharacterCreation.cs
AccountHandler.cs
SkillCheck.cs
AutoSave.cs
Spell.cs
PetResurrectGump.cs
ResurrectGump.cs

These files are new or have been totally rewritten:
ShardControl.cs
TestCenter.cs

THESE FILES WERE CREATED WITH RunUO 2.0 SVN 181.

IF YOU HAVE A CLEAN INSTALL, OR DON'T MIND REPLACING YOUR EXISTING FILES, DROP THESE IN THE SCRIPTS FOLDER, OVERWRITING THE EXISTING FILES. (YES TO ALL)

[ABTOP]

Cool & Simple. Thx man!

[septor]

Nice!

You could add other commonly changed things here as well:

Map rules
FC & FCC rates
Skill gain rate
Characters per account

..?

[Lokai]

Stay tuned...a new improved version of this will be out shortly.

[wulf monat]

i cant wait to see what else will be added to this or made from this, thanks for sharing with the community, even though i pretty much have all the things this controls setup manually, but im sure it will become something even greater with the creative minds at work here.


PS + Karma

[money]

this could be actually pretty useful, thanks man

[Lokai]

You are welcome. Of course, I don't even know what FC or FCC rates are, nor did I do anything with Map rules yet, so if you have any additions that could be added, feel free.

I have just dropped your script in keeping proper structure and it's throwing this error.

+Misc/ShardControl.cs
          CS0115: Line 90: 'Server.Misc.ShardControl.DisplayWeight': no suitable method found to override

Could you help me figure out how to fix it?

What SVN you using?

[zetamine]

I'm retarded, I'm using RC1 not even SVN. So I guess I'm boned.

Not at all. You may comment out that part and be fine.

Look for #region code identifying what sections were changed or added for Shard Control in these files, and add them to your files in the same place:

CharacterCreation.cs
AccountHandler.cs
SkillCheck.cs
AutoSave.cs
Spell.cs
PetResurrectGump.cs
ResurrectGump.cs

These files are new or have been totally rewritten:
ShardControl.cs
TestCenter.cs

In ShardControl.cs, comment out this method:

PHP Code:

        public override bool DisplayWeight { get { return ResetProperties(); } }

I don't know. My version does not refer to Hashtable's at line 225 or 227, as it is using the Dictionary type in SVN 181. Not sure what you did, but I think for this file, all you need to do is use the code that is within the #region tags.

As stated several places in this thread, that code is for the SVN version. Simply comment out that code, and your scripts should work just fine.

Thanks.

We installed the script (along with the Advanced Player Gate) and it's exactly what we need for our shard. Thank you, Lokai. Wonderful, wonderful

One thing I did run into, though... not sure if this happens with others. After you install Shard Control, skill gains stopped until you reset the skill gain option in Shard Control. I tried fishing, mining, and other skills, all at 0.0, with no gain until I set the Shard Control to [shard gains 4, at which point the gains started.

Also, [skill gains 3 is "fast", not "normal". No big deal, just wanted to note it.

Thanks for the great script. It has allowed us to change a ton of things all at once that we wanted, and be able to keep track and do it on the fly.

These scripts were created with SVN 181, not RC1 version of RunUO, so comment out the entire 'DisplayWeight' method, and it should be fine.

[kcwolfy78]

Ok I did that and I got all new errors
