Editing Ascent Core

[xX EPIC Xx]

Hey all i've decided to make me some rep so i made this guide

~I DO NOT TAKE FULL CREDIT FOR EVERYTHING HERE.~

Editing your announcements:


Open up "Ascent Compile/src/game/level1.cpp" "Ascent Compile/src/ascent-world/level1.cpp"

Announcements:

input2 = "|cffff6060<";
    //if (m_session->GetPermissionCount())   input2+="GM";
    if(m_session->CanUseCommand('z')) input2+="Admin";
    else if(m_session->GetPermissionCount()) input2+="GM";
    input2+=">|r|c1f40af20";
    input2+=m_session->GetPlayer()->GetName();
    input2+="|r|cffffffff broadcasts: |r";
    snprintf((char*)pAnnounce, 1024, "%s%s", input2.c_str(), args);   // Adds BROADCAST:
    sWorld.SendWorldText(pAnnounce); // send message
    sGMLog.writefromsession(m_session, "used announce command, [%s]", args);

Announcement colors - ffff6060; 1f40af20; ffffffff. You can change these to whatever color codes your heart desires. your heart desires. (I personally don't change this because I like the original announcement colors.)

Example: <GM> Admin broadcasts: I love me some yellow!

Announcement tags - Change GM to Game Master on both GM Tags (You can also change Admin to Developer etc. to change the announcement to this:


<Game Master> Admin broadcasts: Test123.
<Developer> Admin broadcasts: Welcome to the server.

It is the same with Wannounce, just scroll below and change that.

Announcement Tags 2 - Change "broadcasts:" to anything you would like, such as "announces:".

Here is some example code:

     input2 = "|cffffffff<";  
   //if (m_session->GetPermissionCount())   input2+="Game Master";
    if(m_session->CanUseCommand('z')) input2+="Developer";
    else if(m_session->GetPermissionCount()) input2+="Game Master";
    input2+=">|r|cffffffff";
    input2+=m_session->GetPlayer()->GetName();
    input2+="|r|cffffffff announces: |r";
    snprintf((char*)pAnnounce, 1024, "%s%s", input2.c_str(), args);   // Adds BROADCAST:
    sWorld.SendWorldText(pAnnounce); // send message
    sGMLog.writefromsession(m_session, "used announce command, [%s]", args);

You will get the following with that code:

<Game Master> Admin announces: Test123.

<Developer> Admin announces: Test123.

Increasing Item Storage amount:

Open "Ascent Compile/src/shared/Storage.h" and find this line. "Ascent Compile/src/ascent-shared/Storage.h"

#ifndef STORAGE_H_
#define STORAGE_H_

#ifdef WIN32
#pragma warning(disable:4312)
#endif

#define STORAGE_ARRAY_MAX 200000

Change 200000 to 99999999.

Flying mounts in Azeroth

Changes to make your core 'Azeroth Flyable' - Quick Guide.

All these changes are made in folder trunk/src/game.
 All these changes are made in folder trunk/src/ascent-world.

============================================================

Open Player.cpp

Change:

!=530 

to

>580

Change

!= 530

to

> 580

Save Player.cpp

============================================================

Open Spellauras.cpp

Search for:

void Aura::SpellAuraEnableFlight(bool apply)

Replace the "else" with "if(!apply)" which should look like this:

Code:

void Aura::SpellAuraEnableFlight(bool apply)
{
if(m_target->IsPlayer())
{
static_cast<Player*>(m_target)->FlyCheat = apply;
static_cast<Player*>(m_target)->flying_aura = m_spellProto->Id;
}

if(apply)
{
m_target->EnableFlight(true);
m_target->m_flyspeedModifier += mod->m_amount;
m_target->UpdateSpeed(true);
}
if (!apply) //replaced else with: if(!apply) to allow flying mounts in the old lands
{
m_target->DisableFlight(true);
m_target->m_flyspeedModifier -= mod->m_amount;
m_target->UpdateSpeed(true);
}
}

Save Spellauras.cpp

============================================================

Open Unit.cpp.

Change:

!= 530

to 

> 580

Save Unit.cpp

============================================================

Compile your source.  Credit to Sinister at Ragezone.
