Item IDFile info.

[Joetuul]

I understand the whole bit about the IDfile with weapons and how they show what graphic is shown in game. I was wondering where that info is kept? The actual graphic files is what I mean. Mostly because I would love to be able to use graphics from the newer expansions on my server. But for a reason I have no clue about some of the items show up with no graphic and the drag icon is the cloth choker.

Where would I extract the newer graphics along with the icons to make them show up in game? along with where would I put them?

If this is way to hard, it won't bother me at all. I would just like to use newer drag icons and weapon/armor graphics in game.

TIA for any info!

Do you mean, newer then titanium's?

If you are summoning normal items, like epic 2.0, and cannot see it's graphic nor the icon, then something must be wrong with your client. Try reinstalling.

You can use GeorgeS tools to view icons and weapon models:

Hope it helps.

i think he means like solteris gear and SoF gear but i found that at http://www.raidaddicts.org/index.php?q=node/7 if you download the KMRA patch (regular zip) and drop all the extracted files into your main playing folder and overwrite where prompted that you're able to see most of the wep graphics and item icons so what im working on is since that narrows my search down is looking at all the files you get from live and finding exactly which ones give me them all since there's still a bit missing even with the patch mostly just solteris gear though

Ya I mean stuff newer than Titanium. I can see all weapons up to DODH, just not very much after wards, if I am correct.

I have been searching these forums for quite some time now for any bit of info, even on posts that are really have zero relevance to what I would like. I didnt even think to look at any custom downloads from another server.

When you are done with looking over all of the files I would love to have a copy of that and I would be forever grateful. I have a somewhat small player base but that is fine with me, but I am having tons of fun doing this, even though I am not playing I am creating custom content. Even if you dont want to give up a copy of what you find, could you at least tell me where you got the info and I can attempt to do it myself? Well thanks again!!!

I looked at the download for the KMRA, there are things in there I dont want. I only want just the weapon, armor graphics and the use of the newer icons. Where would I get those at?

I cant seem to get the right files from the KMRA zip to view the newer graphics. Well if I cant get it working, then maybe its not supposed to be. But I am going to keep trying until I can figure it out.

if you own eq expansion past T - those in game graphics can be extracted from those files (don't ask me how to do that thought, I never done it but its posible)

note however, that anyone just posting that graphic for download is in violation of SOE copyright and by downloading that you risking to bring SOE down on yourself

[Joetuul]

I have all the expansion up to the one before seeds... didnt buy that one.

Ya I know all about SOE and their intellectual properties. I wouldn't "post" them anywhere. Last thing I want is SOE breathing down my neck.

Anyways. If any one has the know how on how to do that and would like to share that info with me that would be great. I don't necessarily need someone to go this for me, just someone to point me in the right direction of doing it myself.

I have given up on this quest... disregard unless you have info others might want.

Well, just as an FYI, Secrets of Fadwer should be coming to an emulator near you pretty soon :) That will let you load all of the new zones, races and item models up through SoF. I know it isn't exactly what you were looking for, but IMO, it is a better solution. Shouldn't be long now until it is playable. Of course, you would have to get a copy of SoF to be able to see the new stuff.

That is great news! better than what I was shooting for. Like I said, I have given up on my little venture that is not going to work the way I would like. But if you can get SoF to work trev that would be awesome! Like you said, it would be better than what I was looking at. I have been reading up on your progress in between customizing my server. It sure would require a ton of testing before I would put that in though! Keep up the good work! I for one am really looking forward to SoF being part of Emu.
