Edit server files

There used to be some files you could edit and then use make to recompile for example bsty pets...
Is it still possible to edit these with new setup?

Que?

Bsty pets?

What are you talking about.

If you mean source files?

Github.com/eqemu/server

If you use the installer you cannot modify your source code; however, if you actually compile your own source you can check zone/pets.cpp for Mob::MakePoweredPet and look for this:

Code:

if(record.petnaming == 2)

{

        switch(GetBaseRace())

        {

        case VAHSHIR:

                npc_type->race = TIGER;

                npc_type->size *= 0.8f;

                break;

        case TROLL:

                npc_type->race = ALLIGATOR;

                npc_type->size *= 2.5f;

                break;

        case OGRE:

                npc_type->race = BEAR;

                npc_type->texture = 3;

                npc_type->gender = 2;

                break;

        case BARBARIAN:

                npc_type->race = WOLF;

                npc_type->texture = 2;

                break;

        case IKSAR:

                npc_type->race = WOLF;

                npc_type->texture = 0;

                npc_type->gender = 1;

                npc_type->size *= 2.0f;

                npc_type->luclinface = 0;

                break;

        default:

                npc_type->race = WOLF;

                npc_type->texture = 0;

        }

}

Thanks king.... I'll compile later on
I'm using installer atmo but database should be OK to use with self compiled too?
Just case of changing config file id imagine?

Yes. All you have to do when you compile your own is copy the executables over your current ones. No changes to your .JSON are required.
