Only finished items atm, will do this for the other thinsg too, like shops, spells (maybe maps).. etc.

wont this method make binary conversion harder?
also what exactly is the point of saving items in different formats?
- William - 07-02-2007
It's all good
Different formats, well thats basicly just for fun. But the things is that the same idea will be used for maps for example, and people might find it fun to use a different format.And the main idea for this is that there wont be: items1.bin, items2.bin.. instead they will have a name like: IronSword.bin etc..

hmm that's an interesting way of doing it. But i like it Good job
- William - 07-02-2007
And conserning binary, it's not going to slow it down anything.
Thanks

When it loads the file into an item slot.. How does it save the order of the items? I was just curious..
- William - 08-02-2007
Well basicly it saves the items into a items file. Numbered from 1 to MAX_ITEMS, in on those slots in that file is the names of the filenames.
Bah, I show you:
Code:
[Items]
1=test.itm
2=
3=
etc..- Dark Echo - 08-02-2007
Oh ok.. Yeah i thought it'd be sorta like that.. I guess saving it client side is alright.. Wouldnt it be safer server side?? Although now that i think about it.. Im not really sure what purpose that would serve, saving it server side.. Oh well.. Nice work mate.. :wink:
- William - 09-02-2007
It will be better saving it client side. If you saved it server side, you would have to send 1 more packet. It's not much, but still; since ms uses the index form I recommend using the client to save it. Or you will need to rewrite a few things. And I will merge this system into a big development system in the client.
