Faction Leader's blue ring of light

Post by bustygals »

anyone knows the AI code to activate the "blue ring of light" found on FL ? :idea:
would like to ability to toggle ON/OFF client-side for own viewing pleasure. :roll:

(it's ok if other GE players won't be able to see cos it is not server-side)

Server tells the client that they have the ring, no idea how your meant to activate it I'm pretty sure there isn't a command for it best bet is looking through the IES and finding an appearance you can switch it with.

To my knowledge there is no toggle, the server tells the client which files to load up by referring to the ClassName in the IES Files so the only way to do the appearance is by looking at the IES files and see if you can do some appearance switching.


2 options

1) Switch the appearance of something with the ring light, the possible way to do it is there is an "addon" SFX for the orge series and 92e weapons etc, there is a IES which contains that (weapon attachment or something), the weapons you use a lot add an extra appearance and force it to load the belt appearance instead of the glow or something.

2) Remove Xtrap, edit incoming packets of your appearance and add the ring.


I suggest option 1.

A = ID Space from IES.
B = Column
C = Data Name
D = New Value

Like I said this will only work if you switch appearances with it.

You switch one model (appearance) with another.

So like a costume you can switch it with a different costume by editting the IES files to "point" to a different model or you can use the command which you mentioned and look at the information I gave about it and you can switch the appearances.
