Permitted race/class/deity/city combos
 

Where in the source can I find the permitted race/class/deity/starting_city combos? Or is this client side?

I see. It's in the db migrations. Table char_create_combinations

How do I map the value `allocation_id`?

e.g. Human wizards/mages have an allocation_id of 51, human Enchanter allocation_id=50, high elf encs = 44. etc.

Check the 'char_create_point_allocations' table.

Is it possible to restrict character creation to 1 class by modifying this table?

I am creating a server with only one class, and I want to make it so that when a user creates a character, they can choose any race, but only have that one choice as the class no matter what race they choose.

Also, is it possible to change the name of that class? That would be awesome.

I'm trying to do all of this with only database and text file changes. I really want to refrain from making any code changes that require a custom compile of the server unless absolutely necessary.

Thanks.

Based on your description of how far you are willing to go, you will be severely limited on how custom you can get.

Hmmm... that's disconcerting at best. I was really hoping to keeping this design to database, client-side text file, and server side quest file changes.

Got it to work. I tested it by making it so that the only available class to choose at character creation was Shadow Knight. Worked great.

Hey, sorry to drag up a dead thread but I was wondering how you did that? And can you do the opposite (allow more race / class choices than standard)?

I ask because my experiments doing these things have been unsuccessful. (Using the Titanium client if that makes a difference.)

Thanks!

Edit the char_create_combinations in your DB - set any combination you like, such as Dark Elf Bard following Tunare.

NOTE: I done this on ROF. This may or may not work for Titanium.

That is what I did, and it worked in Underfoot and RoF2. I have not tested Titanium.

Dead thread?

This one is still boiling on the back burner!

Try the ones from 16 years ago :P
