Recently I found some pretty cool npc effects that would add to the character.

I would like to know which programs to use and how to create my own abnormal effects, using the ones from the npcs I found?

Can't remember if that's possible or not, as far as i remember abnormal effects like Vitality and stuff like that are hardcoded, so you can't 'add' new ones, you can just replace existing ones if you can recompile lineageeffect/lineageskilleffect for your client, that's how i managed to change stuff like Bleed, Vitality, etc. 

we also tried to use that to make enchant armor effects, but ended up switching to another alternative.

otherwise, if your client supports Agathions and you don't use them at all, you can create invisible agations with an effect attached to them, then you can have as many 'abnormal' effects as you want (on players)

In addition to this one, this can only work on H5++ clients where NAgathion class contains the chest bone as attach location. "take a look on zaken swords agathion".
I don't know if you can do it on older clients by completely repositioning the effect's location.

Forgot to mention. I use the Gracia Final client. That's exactly what I would like to do, not create, but be able to manipulate the existing ones and change to some that I found inside lineageeffects.u. Like the glow of raid bosses.

You mentioned recompiling the files, but I don't even know where to start. Any direction?

I use Gracia Final client. I use L2Pride Packs. Is this possible on this client?

Everything's possible depends on the time/money you have to invest for it.
But for sure it's not something easy to do on clients lower than H5 because there's not enough client support.

It's not as hard as everyone says, it's just that there are no guides whatsoever. You'll need to learn how .u files work, how to extract scripts from .u files, how to fix errors on .uc scripts, etc etc etc
i suggest you start here:

https://wiki.beyondunreal.com/Commandlet
https://wiki.beyondunreal.com/Legacy:Compiling_With_UCC
you'll also need to get L2Editor and probably UE Explorer

https://github.com/UE-Explorer/UE-Explorer
 

There are also some guides about how to recompile LineageSkillEffects.u and stuff like that

(you'll need to get some files from those guides as well)

overall it's not worth learning it if you're only planning to change 2 o 3 abnormal effects, in that case i'd suggest you to ask @NevesOma to do it for you (for a price of course)
 

though if you spend some time learning this you'll be able to do stuff like porting skills from higher clients to any lower client, change abnormal effects, create your own weapon effects, soulshot/spiritshot effects, or even create your own skill effects. I.E.:

https://gyazo.com/f82e27c0e5a61286045801a14e8bf511


i'm planning to do a bunch of guides later, when i have time, and if i feel like it.

If you have doubts just ask away

You just gave me an incredible north! I'm going to go deeper into the subject and whenever I have questions I won't hesitate to ask! Thank you!

      Yes, something like that. More specifically, the running, attacking and attack wait animations for female human with a bow.

      I tried searching, but couldn't find an answer to my question. That is why I created the topic.

      L2 Interlude Edit Animations

      By kawerte · Posted

      I'm looking to edit existing character animations for the L2 Interlude client. What I did successfully so far: Exported the files files from animations/Fighter.ukx (to get the .psk and .psa files) Imported a couple .psk + one .psa file to Blender and made my changes to the animations. Exported the resulting .psa file (which ended up being the same size as the original file, so everything should be fine). I downloaded multiple different UnrealED editors - the one from UT2004, L2Editor posted by lordofdes here, L2Editor posted by 911reg. From there on I had trouble with converting back to .ukx. Below are different methods I've tried and failed. Method 1: Made a new .ukx file inside UT2004's UnrealED, containing only my edited .psa file and 1 .psk file Converted my .ukx file with Gildor's tool Placed the resulting file in the animations folder Used L2FileEdit to change the LineageWarrior.int file in the systems folder in order to reroute to the animations I edited Started up the game, but the changed animations were replaced instead with a simple walking animation for some reason   Method 2: Tried the following workflow with both L2Editors (911reg's version and lordofdes's version) (using and not using Gildor's UnrealED patches) Trying to open the original Fighter.ukx file resulted in some of the L2Editor variants crashing. With the ones that didn't crash, I saved the .ukx file with another name (even tried adding my custom .psa file but the result was the same as below). There was file size difference between the .ukx I made and the original .ukx. I tried both substituting the .ukx file as is in the animations folder and after I encrypted it using 911reg's version's encdec.exe In both cases the game crashed when I was about to go to the character screen (made sense since the file size should have been the same). What am I missing here? Is it at all possible to edit the original character animations?
