New effect?

[Yiv 316]

Dear community,

 

I wanted to ask you for a method to create a new effect for metin2 like the potion effects or status/level up effect.

 

Which programs I need?

Can somebody explain it to me?

 

Regards

The worldeditor contains this function

I tried but I don't really know how to use it.

Maybe you would be so kind and write a small tutorial?

Let me i explain to you

 

1.If you don't unpack property.eix, unpack it then log in property/b/eff (this just for example)

2.Create a file. File extension must be .pre

 

Example:

YPRT
780392666
effectfile		".mse path"
propertyname		"name"
propertytype		"Effect"

3. If you don't unpack effect.epk then unpack it after log in ymir work/effect/etc and create a folder. (For Example : fall)

4. If you have dds and mse, paste it else create a dds and a mse files.

 

Mse file Example: 

BoundingSphereRadius   5000.000000
BoundingSpherePosition 0.000000 0.000000 -2000.000000

Thank you!

I think you don't want to explain it more clear e.g. which function is for what?

Ok.Its an old topic but if its dont closed its better and maybe now people find it util.I have 4 solutio for making great effects:

1.With 3dmax+fumefx+krakatoa+(mde tool by ricky)+world editor.(hard method)---Tested method

2.Cryengine particle editor+cry sdk plugin for 3dmax+ 3dmax+mde tool by ricky+world editor.(medium method)---Tested method

3.Cry engine,some animated objects+warp tool+mde tool by ricky.(easy)----Tested method

4.World editor(maybe its great for editing but for creations idk.)(unknow)----Undested

I will make some new tutorial about how to do it.

Yesterday I asked myself how I can do that, I want to learn how to do professional effects.

If you explain how to do effects and/or habs  with a video I would appreciate you.
Regards.

Srry for my english but i think it isnt bad  .

[Thanatos 70]

Edit.I test to create effects from just an tga image in world editor and can be done easy(but not verry verry quick).

Its slow process but work like an charm  in game.

New test

[z35 168]

I would like to learn how to do that, feel free to post it if you want and have time to make a tut. 

[pewi 772]

Everything can be done quicky if u know what u want to do and how do that.

If u using WE and u know all functions/settings then it's easy. But It has its limitations without mde - e.g. when u need a mesh in ur effect.

Btw a lot of effects in the metin2 r a pure mse, becouse it's more optimal than mde.

So at the start I suggest you play with editing existing effects - to find out what is responsible for what.

Yah, I know that. I use 3D Max a lot. But I dont know exactly how to in WE.

Right, I did that with some effects  .

[Thanatos 70]

After  a lot of tests i suggest: pack of existing effects from what game you want(like terra online) from here you need just dds or tga img of effect after create new effect(bassic) with that texture and after go in 3dmax and animate it(its slow but will result will shock you).and after back to world editor and finish effect.

Dont mess with old effect to edit them.Take this like an advantage.
