5.How to add zone portals

Example using quest files for what ever zone you wish.

I made my own for Bazzar quest for Red and Blue Translocator

Translocator_Blue.pl
sub TL
{
movepc(1213.00,921.00,3.2

; }
}
movepc(88.00,265.00,36.00); }
}

Translocator_Red.pl

sub TL
{
movepc(1212.00,-891.00,3.2

; }
}
movepc(261.64,-91.47,36.00); }
}
----------------------------------
This is a quest for what ever zone

Example Dummy.pl for nexus

sub EVENT_SAY {
if($text=~/Hail/i){
quest::say("wish to go");

if($text=~/wish to go/i) {
quest::movepc(-882.00,132.00,51.47); #Arena <--- This will move a charter to another zone location.
}

sub EVENT_SPAWN {
$x = $npc->GetX();
$y = $npc->GetY();
quest::set_proximity($x - 170.68, $x - 261.52, $y - 156.31, $y + 0);<--- to spawn a ncp type in the location where you want him/her to show up.
{
}
To find the location type /loc in chat window.

Ok. I have a question. How do i get 329 - portal to show up in other zones? I can't figure out how to add static objects, and what there id's are so I guess I'll use that its the only one I Portal like I can find can find.

Edit nvm i used one from Wall of Slaughter.

when you say objects are you referance to objects Example
Goto your Everquest directory find the zone you known where the file
is in like example Tutorialb_assents add the objects name to the file.
to extact the objects if need use the program called s3Dspy.

under xxxxx_EnvironmentEmitters is where you want to put 329 - portal to show up
look at that zone EnvironmentEmitters file it will give you a number and the location.

helman · #19 01-16-2012, 04:52 AM

Well I'm using one from wall of Slaughter now. Its in and every thing, but setting it to work like pok stones is a bit hard. I have it set to South Q but it set it self back to none. I'm thinking i didn't set it right and forgot to put South Q.

Edit Yeah those kind of objects.

I'm sorry now i understand what your talking about when you say portal.

example veeshan_assets
voidportal.eqg
make sure you add the file name to xxxxxx_assets file for what ever zone your placing the portal in.

helman · #21 01-16-2012, 05:11 AM

Ok what about the a crystalline portal from wall of slaughter? (asking cause i got it to load just fine with out doing that)

Noport · #22 01-16-2012, 05:18 AM

what ever works is fine. Good job!

helman · #23 01-16-2012, 05:24 AM

Thanks. Most of this would not have been done with out yours and blackdragonsdg's help. But I'm far away from being done. I only have starting gear made for one class, only 2 Class GM's, Still need to get my zones made out, and figure out how to make quests, Further work on the story, Edit what Aail the Enlightened says-never said his name but its the text i was having problems with-, Look for someone to do the hosting for me. Lets just say i have a new found respect for the people that have made a server, and the people that can do this like its nothing.

Noport · #24 01-16-2012, 05:33 AM

I"m working with the newer client Voa . i had to use Station & Lauchpad to make one good client. Exported all the zone files so far 1.22Gb with Voa client now been 9.25Gb Total

Noport · #25 01-16-2012, 06:01 AM

don't use %t if you want your charters name to show you'll have to use $name.

helman · #26 01-16-2012, 06:10 AM

ok. And I'm haing troubles again. XDD

Code:

sub EVENT_SAY {
	if($text=~/Hail/i) {
			quest::say("-You Hear a Voice that seems to come out Of the Rift.- This Will send you back in time to South Qeynos.(I'm still working on this So just Say (Send).");
	}		
	If($text=~/Send/i) {
			quest::say("Please be careful to not change the future.");
			quest::movepc(302,0,10,5);  
	}
}

Whats wrong with it? My Portal wont talk to me. I have the .pl named right and in the right folder but it just wont talk.

Also with what I'v learned I think I can make my own Waypoint. All i need is to make sure every zone has the same npc and Script for it. The only thing i can't do is the banking system and the withdraw from it. But i can still make it my buff bot, skill trainer, Spell trainer, Disc trainer and what not.

sub EVENT_SAY {
if($text=~/Hail/i) {
quest::say("$name Hears a Voice that seems to come out Of the Rift.- This Will [Send] you back in time to South Qeynos. Please be careful to not change the future.");
}elseIf($text=~/Send/i) {
quest::movepc(302,0,10,5);
}
#END of FILE

helman · #28 01-16-2012, 06:45 AM

Thank you. XDD as you can see i'm still getting use to this.

Sadly that didn't work. still testing.

I think i know what it is. $name Hears a Voice that seems to come out Of the Rift.- its the (-). I copyed the text from one of my other npcs and it worked. So its got to be that (-).

Got it to work but, now i need to figure out why it sent me to dracknick(sp) -I so missed up that name XDD- scar

I was looking at the wrong ID 302 is the zone id for DS 1 is for SQ

Noport · #29 01-16-2012, 07:31 AM

xxxxxxxxxx.pl plugin name of file

#!/usr/bin/perl
sub name_say {
my $text = shift;

if($text=~/hail/i){
quest::say("$name Hears a Voice that seems to come out Of the Rift.- This Will [Send] you back in time to South Qeynos. Please be careful to not change the future.");
}elseIf($text=~/Send/i) {
quest::movepc(302,0,10,5);
}
#END of FILE
put this file in plugins dirctory to work in every zone.

put this file in every zone replace xxxxxx and pluginname
xxxxxxxxxx.pl plugin name of file
#generic pluginname quest
sub EVENT_SAY {
plugin::pluginname_say($text);
}

helman · #30 01-16-2012, 07:35 AM
