Help Abnormal effects in Lineage 2, how do they actualy work?

[darta]

Hello,

For some days now i try to add some new abnormal effects, but i do not understand how do they work, how does the client know the abnormal effects sent by server to client?  I looked inside hi5 client, there is no abnormaldefaulteffect.dat like in god clients (ertheia and above), and even in them, abnormal numbers start from 67, but bleed for exemple si abnormal number 1 and works fine,

so where are the abnormal effect numbers stored in client in reality?  

[Rootware]

All abnormal effects is hardcoded inside client and have own binary mask. You can't add the new effect w/o edition engine.dll.

is there any way i can see the list that is hardcoded or make client be able to read from lineageffect2.u instead of only lineageeffect.u as default path?

can anyone edit engine.dll?

Lol good luck buddy

If you are using goddess i had no problem editing abnormaleffectdata to add a new one. You also need server side support for it.

On fafurion it tells you the class of the effect. Show me what you see

163    a,u_ave_snow_hold\0    0    a,    1    0.00000000    0.00000000    -20.00000000    0.00000000    0.00000000    1.00000000
 

exemple of abnormaldefaulteffect.dat

 

writing lineageeffect2.effect_name will not work for some reason, but dat is saved fine.

 

writing Lineageeffect.effect_name will work tho

Test with l2clientdat but i dont think it will be different, but doesnt hurt to do so.
