Discussion More than one mount in Interlude

[Straw Hat]

Hey guys, is everything ok?

I've been looking for a way to add more than one mount to Interlude for some time and I haven't been able to, since when you add more than one mount without replacing the Strider, when you mount the added mount, the character appears on top of the Strider.
Many people say that in Interlude, this is not possible due to its limitations, etc. etc...
But it turns out that recently I was on Facebook and saw some L2 Royale posts and there are several mounts there, and the client is the Interlude c6 and not a Classic Interlude.
I believe they did it in a different way, can anyone imagine a way to make this work?

Thanks!

They replaced existing ones

That doesn't even make sense.
There are only 3 striders and they use the same mesh and the same textures.

There are around 10 mounts there.

Send me the website of that server, propably extended dll if its c6, or downgraded client

Envie-me o site desse servidor, provavelmente dll estendida se for c6 ou cliente rebaixado

Probably, when you open the site you will think "this guy is stupid, clearly this is not an interlude, the client is the Grand Crusader (Classic)".
Don't be fooled by the texture below the character's feet, this is common to add to the interlude interface nowadays, I have it on mine myself.

Hello everyone,

I'm facing exactly the same issue mentioned in this topic. I've correctly implemented several new mounts in my Lineage 2 Interlude server, but whenever I use the ride/mount action, the client always displays the default strider animation (lineagemonster.strider_m00), even though in my npcgrp.dat everything is correctly referenced to my custom ride.u files (e.g., ride.wolfhound_m00).

I've examined the server-side code and realized the problem likely comes from the client only looking at the _rideType (which is 1 for STRIDER) and ignoring the _rideNpcId when determining which animation to load.

@Banshee Garnet mentioned an "extended dll" - does this involve modifying the L2.dll or L2Client.dll so it checks the NpcId in addition to the rideType? Has anyone already made this modification and could share more details on how to proceed?

Looking at l2royale.com, I can see they indeed have multiple functional mounts in their Interlude client. I'd like to understand which approach they used:

1. Is it indeed a DLL modification?
2. Which specific parts of the DLL need to be modified?
3. Are there already patches or tools that allow adding this functionality?

If anyone has successfully implemented multiple mounts in Interlude or knows the precise technical solution, I would be very grateful for any information or help.

Thanks in advance!

You can actually make a pseudomount code in your server, that way it can be displayed.. a friend made it for the l2off and i extended it a bit.. if u have l2off i might be able to help u on that
