Hello guys,

I was trying to add a new mob starting from an existing model in the game files. What I did is:

1- make a new .u file that contains the class of my mob (I called it LineageMonsterExtra.u). I compiled it with ucc and it's just the simple script

class mymob extends LineagePawn
  Config(User);

defaultproperties
{
    GroundMaxSpeed=180.00
    GroundMinSpeed=46.00
    bSpineRotation=True
	//ControllerClass=Class'LineageMonster.HerdMonster'
    DrawScale=2.50
    CollisionRadius=28.00
    CollisionHeight=100.0
}

(Should I care about the controllerclass herdmonster? I commented it out because it was giving me errors while compiling)

 

2- In the npcgrp.dat I simply copypasted an existent line of the mob I want to use the model of (I just want to increase his size for now), and edited the first 2 parameters: mob ID and the name of the package in which to look for the script (LineageMonsterExtra.mymob). Rest I left untouched.

3- I created the file LineageMonsterExtra.int where i copy-pasted the animation names of the existent mob (I changed the class name in the beginning ofc).

 

When I launch the game, the mob is loaded correctly (I see him with textures and 2.5x size) but it doesn't play any animation, except maybe 1 or 2 when i make him test some skills.
Did I miss any step?
Thanks for help!

 

 

EDIT:

Sorry guys was a stupid mistake (wrong encryption for the .int file).

You can close here!

Can you show me what you put inside the .int file? also, is it a custom 3d model with custom animations? if so, send a pic of it in unrealed

The problem was that the L2 file editor was encrypting the .int file wrongly, for some reason. I used the encdec inside the Unreal Editor that you posted a while ago and it worked fine. 

Thanks for answer though, you can close here I think 🙂

    • A misaligned badge or a heavy shadow is not evidence of AI. If anything, small inconsistencies are usually proof of years of manual modifications layered over an old codebase. AI-generated UIs tend to be overly clean, symmetrical, and generic because models optimize for visual patterns, not long-term product evolution. What you’re calling “AI design” is actually a very common style in older gaming communities: strong gradients, metallic buttons, glow effects, dense information blocks, and high visual emphasis on rankings/votes/sponsors.    Also, good UI is contextual. A toplist platform for MMORPG servers is optimized differently than a modern SaaS dashboard or a portfolio site. Here, visibility, CTR, sponsor highlighting, fast scanning, and information density matter more than minimalist whitespace trends from Dribbble. And honestly, if the UI was actually generated by AI, it probably would’ve looked more modern and generic — not like a platform that clearly evolved piece by piece over many years 😄   The funny thing is that a lot of these new “AI web designers” can’t even write 20 lines of CSS by hand without ChatGPT holding their hand 😄    They see a shadow, a gradient, or a rounded border and instantly scream “AI-generated” because their entire understanding of design now comes from prompting tools instead of actually building interfaces from scratch. And honestly, @Elfo was right — your own website looks far more AI-generated you built it with Tailwind/shadcn-style aesthetics and probably Next.js ,m i right friend? you built it with Tailwind/shadcn-style aesthetics...  You literally scanned the entire site just to find a tiny shadow behind a button as “proof” 😂 Real developers know the difference between a handcrafted project that evolved over many years, and a generic AI-generated template pumped out in 30 seconds.       Anyway, no hard feelings. Different tastes, different opinions 🙂
    • If it is AI-generated, you used a really shit model. Even AI wouldn't be able to generate obvious errors like the badge misalignment.   I do find it funny, however, that out of everyone to accuse you, Splicho, who used AI to fully generate this https://nimeracp.com/, is the one to talk.
    • You’re free to dislike the design, that’s subjective and totally fine. But calling everything you personally don’t like “AI generated” is not really an argument 😄 The funny part is that the layout constraints you’re criticizing are actually intentional design decisions for toplist platforms — ads, rankings, visibility blocks, sponsor placements, and high information density. This isn’t a portfolio landing page or a SaaS dashboard where you can leave half the screen empty for aesthetics. Also, AI-generated UIs usually look generic, over-animated, inconsistent, and impractical for real long-term usage. Our platform has been evolving for years based on actual user behavior, server owner needs, CTR optimization, and functionality requirements. You may not like the visual style, and that’s okay. But confusing “I don’t like this design” with “this was made by AI” just shows you’re judging emotionally instead of technically. Anyway, appreciate the feedback. Good luck to you too 🙂
    • You don't get it what I am trying to say. Your UI is simply ai generated, entirely. The current theme what you are using. I am not talking about the backend. It's just my personal preference/opinion that I think your UI looks really bad because it's AI generated and whoever worked on it didn't give a single fuck about how it looks, or at least take the time to rework the UI that AI generated yourself.   AI is just bad with design and your website is a proof of concept once again. But how would someone know what looks good and what does not look good if one doesn't have the design skills or knowledge.   Whatever, good luck with your site.
