OK getting a little old

Been around for over a year now and the one thing that boggles me is aos resists I have tried various ways to enable aos and still have old school like armors. Now I have been told it can be done. the question is how large of a procedure is it and what files do i start with? due to the fact that I think I am not the only one that is wanting this I think maybe a simple on/off swith in destro would be a cool add on. the other question is will this require a core edit? the reason I am asking is the possibility of runuo going open source. anyone who agrees with this possiblity please step up and let it be known.

Edit BaseArmor and take the checks out.

Or edit AOS.cs Damage method?

Or PlayerMobile.cs...

PlayerMobile does not control Base Creature so this will not work either Aos damage method couldnt see how this could work virtual armor its just not in that file

AOS/Damage should still work... I think virtual armor gets treated like normal resistances...

VirtualArmor is only used for Pre-AOS. And it acts as if they are wearing armor.

yep spider knows what im talking about

I thought I knew that too.

If you have AOS enabled, AOS::Damage is called for all damaging actions. Virtual Armor will not be used. So if you edit AOS::Damage, you can edit the calculation for damage vs. resists.

for damage vs. resists? thats the problem I dont want resists if I want to play with resists Ill pull out the pokemon cards lol. no really ill check that out and see what I can do.

If you have AOS enabled, chances are, you will not be able to quit using resistances. If you don't have AOS enabled.. then do a search for where VirtualArmor is used (I dont know where.. but it may be in BaseCreature.cs).

OK we must of lost topic after all the discussion. but heres what I want to do. set core aos enabled but use the old virtual armor system for armor.

Thats fine.. you will still have to look for where VirtualArmor is checked and used in BaseCreature.cs and change that to work with AOS. And go into AOS.cs and change how the Damage method works.

this little peice of code looks like it might do a little something for using the old system am I correct?

			if ( !Core.AOS )
			{
				m.Damage( damage, from );
				return damage;
			}

this is line 68 - 72 in AOS.cs

Yeah, but that is done after the VirtualArmor is taken into effect. The VirtualArmor is done in BaseCreature.cs.
