Legit-PvP World that I wish to create.

Greetings,

I am attempting to make a 24/7 server that is Legit and also is Player vs. player after lvl 20. I want it forced that you are pvp after 20. Sorta how they do on the Live servers at lower levels. I am a beginner with C++ and going to try teaching myself that and some 3D gaming coding. I would appreciate any help that I can get in this matter as I haven't the slightest at where to look. Thank you and God Bless.

edit client.cpp and where you find

Code:

Message(15, "You have gained a level!  Welcome to level %i!", check_level-1);

add

Code:

if(check_level-1 >= 20) {
  this->SetPVP(true);
}

right under it and recompile. the only issue i can see is if they drop below 20, and get it again, they'll get another "You follow the ways of discord." message.

I just tested this.. works exactly as stated.

So do this...

Code:

if(check_level-1 >= 20 &amp;&amp; !this->GetPVP()) { 
  this->SetPVP(true); 
}

also, you wanna make it

Code:

if(check_level-1 == 20 && !this->GetPVP()) {
   this->SetPVP(true);
}

>= becomes just ==

the previous incarnation would make a non pvp who was dinging to any level 20 and up turn pvp, which may not be your desire.

Can anyone confirm if this does still in fact work? Can't seem to get it to work correctly. I hate to dig up old posts, but this is something we want to do on our server.

Also would it be possible to one make certain zones PVP like the arena? My partner and I have talked about this we're just not sure it can be done very easily.

BTW: The guys on the IRC #EQemu channel lastnight where great. Couldn't have fixed my problem without you guys.

Edit: Ok this does work, however it only seems to work after you reach the PVP level and then zone. It also don't seem to effect SysOp Account Characters.
