How to make a new currency and adding it to your DB.

[P1raten]

:Introduction:

Welcome, I hope you will understand how to make a new currency better after you read this Guide.
Happy Learning!

You know what item you want?
Good, if not, I did just modify the 20515 (Abyssal Scepter) so it Binds on Pickup and made that one my Currency.

Follow This Guide Down Under.

:Step I:

Download BOTH CSVed and DBCutil if you do not have them already.
Links at the bottom.
Find the DBC you want.
In this case we want "ItemExtendedCost.dbc"



:Step II:

Convert the ItemExtendedCost.dbc with DBCutil.
Just Drag and Drop.
Open ItemExtendedCost.dbc.CSV with CSVed.





:Step III:

Press "Edit" and then "Add Record ..."
Fill it in as the template I did show you before.
TIP: Currency ID should be over 3000!
Press "Apply Changes" and then "Ready"







:Step IV:

Save the File.
Convert back to DBC.
Put it back into your DBC folder.
Go into your DB and add / edit what/wich items will use your Currency.







:Step V:

Want to make it a .SQL file?
Think it will go Faster with a .SQL file?
Heres the .SQL template!

insert into `items_extendedcost`(`ItemId`,`CostId`) values (ITEM ID,CURRENCY ID),(ITEM ID,CURRENCY ID),

Dont forget the "," between every ")" and "("

This will make "ITEM" cost - if you did exactly as I did - 50 Abyssal Scepters.
It will not be visible in the shop as Scepters.
So my tip is either name the vendor or make a GameObject to say.
"All Items in this Vendor costs äx number' of 'x item' "

Is it possible to override the Gold, Silver, and Copper? To make it something else? Like a custom token or something like that?

Other than that question, this is a good guide. Well written and easy to understand! +Rep
