Pet Spells?

[Borsung]

Looking to create pet spells and have questions.

Is it possible to summon custom pets? ie. fire beetle, snake ect.? If yes, how?
if no, is there a table for "npc_types" in the EOC editor?

How do you scale pets to only do a certain amount of damage?

Appreciate the reply!

Yes, there is a way to make custom pets, just make an npc_types entry, pets entry, and spells_new entry. Yes, there is an NPC Editor. Pets are just npc_types entries that also have a spell and pets table entry associated with them.

Example:

npc_types ID: 665
pets npcID: 665
spells_new ID: 5460

Hey King,
If you create a custom pet I assume you would need to add the Race Model to a global load file or something?

Can you advise? Hoping I wouldn't have to add the model to each zone individually...

Thanks!

Not necessarily, if the race is already loading in the globalload, a custom pet will not require any changes to your globalload.txt, but if the race is a race that is not loading, you will have to add a line. Please note, custom pets do not mean custom models.

[utbbop]

Understood.

The model is not a global model already so I need to add it to globalload.txt

Can you advise on the format in doing this?
Trying to add Lava Spider...

lsp,lsp is what the EOC generates for me in the Race Viewer.

Adding lsp,lsp to the globalload.txt isnt working...


Any help you can provide is appreciated as per usual!

Actually, putting the lsp,lsp value in GlobalLoad_chr.txt seems to have worked...
