Hello everyone , as the title says i have this problem. i try to open a .bmp file from systextures in order to create my own splashscreen. However the format that comes out of decrypter is not supported from any painting program like paint or photoshop. Any ideas why this is happening and how can i solve this?

Drag the UTX file onto L2decrypt.exe > filename.clear.utx

Open the *resulting file* in  L2Tool to save a readable file. > filename.readable.utx

Open this "readable" UTX file in UTPT. You should be able to right-click and export any texture within the package. "First mipmap as TGA" always works fine for me. :)

splashes are bmps, so the i think the utx stuff is irrelevant

 

not a 100% sure answer but have you tried making your own bmp and encypting it then overwriting the original yet? (make sure to keep backups of the original bmps)

I know about unreal but it has nothing to do with bmp. Well master i want to edit a bmp not to create a new one because i want to see how alpha channel is placed cause i tried to replace as you sayed with a new one but turned to failure

Posted

BMP file format doesn't hold alpha channel. Only GIF, PNG, TIF and TGA do.

I didn't dig into splash screens structure, but if it uses an alpha channel it must be stored somewhere else other than into BMPs.

well maybe you get me wrong here and it's my mistake , but when i create a new bmp , encrypt it , rename it properly and place it in the systextures when i open l2.exe i see my splash faded so it has to be an alpha channel or smth similar..that is why i want to edit an already existing splashscreen in order to study it and learn the proceedure

Posted

I see. Could you please post a screenshot of how it looks like when you launch the game?

 

Right now, I suspect that the fade you're talking about lies in another image that is over-imposed to the splash background.

i am afraind i can't. My computer has an issue when it comes about uploading. however i will give you a PM that contains my skype so you can add me and i can share my screen with you

you have to decrypt the bmp files with name sp_32b_01.bmp (only this and when you make your splash screen you just change numbers and save them) and sp_256_01.bmp too (do the same only this and when you make your splash screen just change numbers).

when you decrypt your splash screens open them on photoshop and follow this guide

so the problem should be the number on the end? xm...i was trying with elfocrash guide too but no results..nvm i will check and fix it somehow thanks everyone for your answers

    • Hi, I'm selling Interface sources. I was working with one of bigger Essence projects (for ±1 year) delivering them Interface source KR. Per this period gathered knowledge about UE, UE Scripting, saw a lot of tools and their progression. So finally I decided that I can open up my own sales topic. I'm selling source for any protocol - If I don't have source, I will need you to provide whole system folder or for Essence/main - provide me protocol number. Sources are acquired by my OWN decompiler - written in Java, so we're not using popular UEExplorer upgraded by anyone. Decompiler extracts already compile ready sources. It outputs clean code, however constants are mapped 60-70%. Why only 60-70%? Well tl;dr when you compile any sources, they take at that time constant value and place it instead of = CONST_NAME to = THAT_CONST_NAME_VALUE, so it's not possible to have const name instead of value. Example of output: https://pastebin.com/cjyXcJvT for bigger .uc class (557p). p.s pastebin messed up encoding, but KR symbols are preserved - you won't see "?" symbols, rather you will see proper original korean text. I will give you guide as well, how not to mess it up with your editor VS Code/Notepad++ or what you use it to make them preserve it. You will get source + my compiler wrapper (written in java) - works on Windows/Mac/Linux - it has small GUI but supports CLI. Small notice, who thinks 'this is decompiled source' - basically all sources that are on sale are made by decompiling .u and applying changes. I think powerhouse few years ago was ArtToKill/kick (kick added support for INT64 to the publicly available compiler sources) etc. So no - there are no straight from 'creator' sources anywhere, all sellers offer the same - just the quality is different. UEExplorer upgraded was a big step, however, it introduces still a lot of nesting, if statements wrapping incorrectly which could lead to bugs. There are many things how to identify poor quality sources, as if the seller tries to sell 'out-of-box' when they see it compiles - sad news, some bugs are in the logic due to seller focusing only on 'it compiles' rather than issues that their decompiler is not capable so solve. On request I can restore ±100% const mapping.   Later I can attach compiled .u to try. Price is 400EUR. Payment methods USDT (Crypto). I'm still in debate with myself, wether to start selling XDat Editor with structures and ClientDat with 100% all files openings (no unk namings) and improved experience (such as comments support in .dat files, mass sync, improved performance and so on). P.s. If you ask me to give you some project's custom interface - the price may vary - there are couple things per project that need to be hand checked and adjusted (for example Innadril completely changes tokens which then I need to adjust my program to their token Ids). So it might take more time = more money. P.s.s. I have more things in the garage, like my own dsetup source that can allow you 'unlocking' system with your desired encrypting - you don't need to wait till 'patched' systems start appearing and so on, but I think at this time everyone who needs it make them selves it. AAC crypt removals and so on, BuildZone, everything that 'unlocks' client, however, I don't plan to make them on sale as mentioned, everyone can do them.  
    • It has been a while since I updated this thread. I am currently actively working on a full-scale port of the shader library to ensure the fast and accurate transfer of all effects. I have decompiled the original game and created a tool that fully logs the entire *Lineage 2 Interlude* particle system. This allows me to extract the original formulas hardcoded into the game, resulting in a high-fidelity port. For instance, *Lineage 2* uses an `appRnd` system that generates unique randomization patterns for different skills, giving them distinct visual characteristics; there are countless formulas and technical nuances like this. Ultimately, I will derive all the key formulas and replicate the geometry with high precision. Twelve basic geometry formulas have already been ported. The effect was created in 10 minutes using a .uc file, HLSL formulas, and SpriteEmitter particle blending formulas.   https://prnt.sc/_3UDLQVX_Y-_
    • Good luck my friend! 😃
    • try this one instead. The one he shared affects every single NPC/player character in the game, the one I posted only affects player characters  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UtccbD9e50x3WEnQBab2PTZnBHwpcGYM/view?usp=sharing or perhaps i misunderstood; if you could please post a full explanation of the problem you're having with the files, unfortunately i think whatever you're using to translate to english is a bit bad nevermind, i got what you mean, here's the fix   https://drive.google.com/file/d/1av7OHaGSdnVQtcBgb9MhtiIkxVXy3P2y/view?usp=sharing   CanIngnoreCollision=True CanBeIngnoredCollision=True
