i tried to search on how to edit sprite but that page is kinda outdated and some of the link is not available anymore
so anyone have any site that i can learn on how to edit sprite

*changing sprite is not illegal right ><?
well..i dont expect i can do the sprite edit
but at least lemme try

You could go to a character simulator site and edit the images off there.
There should be some links in the 'Useful RO Links' post from the General Discussion.

thanks nyru ^^
but i actually want the sprite to be shown in-game

well
as i google around web
i think i'll just try
but im not sure if it's against rule..i'll send support ticket regarding this i guess

[Nyru]

I don't think it's against the rule to edit sprites.
I've seen simulators with hair styles that aren't on RO, so I guess it's okay because they're distributing them.

If you want an in-game sprite, why not take a screen shot?

Or do you mean you want it animated because there are simulators that do that too. xD

If you go to Tools on RMS you should find something called; grftool-win32. If you don't, try to find a download on google.


Then you'll need a sprite bible, you can use the RMS one in conjunction with this:

Since they both have info the other doesn't.

Then open the GRF tool, use it to look in, I can't remember if it's adata, or sdata, probably s since I guess it stands for 'Sprite'. Anyway good luck finding what you want to edit in there, extract it and use actOR (Should be on RMS too) to extract the individual sprite/item frames to edit in paint/photoshop.

Then use actOR to re-compile it, and well, good luck getting it into the game. I haven't had any luck since my computer is set to Japanese so it doesn't read the data folder names properly. But it shouldn't be..... very hard, right?

[redhairweasel]

yep i've done it ^^
it's not that hard tho thanks to Fidelis

but i dont think spreading this would be appropriate
as it is event item

[Arkensark]

Ahh, you modded something to make it look like the Black Valk helm didn't you?

[redhairweasel]

indeed 

[Fidelis]

The picture you showed me is not the "real" Black Valk Helm though.

[redhairweasel]

arh yea...i thought the one I post is black valk..it's actually black helm
i thought the 1 that gonna be implemented as black valk is the one i edit as i saw people walking with it[even tho it's orc hero helm]

well
at least more variety for my view as not everyone using so i'll not see everyone wearing them
and i think pally look better with black helm rather than black valk xD

thanks again Fidelis!!~
