The quest for the new tiledata flags

Redmoon · Mar 7, 2014

I'm currently hunting for the new tiledata flags for the newer clients (post-muls).
What used to work for custom wearables and mounts, doesn't ~completely~ work anymore.

The issues I'm having are:
1. Any custom wearable disappearing while sitting
2. Custom mounts disappearing.

Mounts:
It used to be you could set the quality flag to 25 for mounts, but I believe OSI has put this in the client.
I've extracted the exe(s), and it all looks greek to me at the moment.

Here is an example of the horses, one doesn't have a animation set, but does IG..the other still does.

(Without animation in tiledata)

(With animation in tiledata)

Clothing:
It seems there is more to do than before. There are more flags on "StackOff" and "MiscData"..which I'm not sure ~exactly~ what these are yet.

Any insight or help with this would be greatly appreciated, as I'm not a Hexer.

StackOff is the stacking offset in pixels when stacked. The higher the number the more pixels "away" from each other the multiple items will appear in a stack. At least that has always been the description and my perception of that particular flag.

This was posted as a revision to UOFiddler a while back:

renamed Unk1 to MiscData (old UO Demo weapon template def)

Unk1 is explained here:

Hopefully all that helps you out in your quest oh noble Redmoon!

PS - The "Quality" flag, when couple with the Arm/Weapon and Wearable flags, refers to the layer of the item. Why this is necessary for us when we can reassign that via serverside code, I'm not so sure - but I still flag it appropriately when adding something regardless.

I'd totally play the damsel in distress!

I'm stumblin' around in the dark here, but I know it's possible to get this much needed info. I have all my customs set correctly. They work perfect in lower clients...I'm not sure what OSI's smokin'..but maybe I need some of it to get in their frame of mind.

So, if your wearable needs to appear properly in the sitting position, put it in between slots 0xC4E (50400) and 0xC737 (50999).

All of the above links are for clients 7.0.23.1 and below; mounts clients 7.0.10(ish and lower)... and my customs work flawlessly with those clients. I'm using the newest client (7.0.34.6-7.0.36.15), and none of the older work-arounds fix this issue.

Ugh! Well I found the clothing issue. Apparently when I did a mass import in UO Fiddler something wigged out and flagged things really wrong. Now to find the Mount flags.

ah I had no idea.

Redmoon said:

How do you go about finding these flags? I mean lets say you added a custom item that is a shirt. How do you know what to set quality and misc data?
the rest I'm fairly familiar with such as the check box options and most of the input boxes.

This is what I'm currently looking for. I'm sure it's in one of the exe(s) or dll(s). I have peeked into them, but haven't found what we're all looking for yet (?e_flags?). From what it looks like, OSI is linking all art/gumps to animations via the client then flagging in tiledata as a "after thought" reference"...to make it harder for people to customize. It would be ~really~ nice to have custom flags/layers in the next publish, ie; just add the art/gump then script in and add the flags/layers via the script.

I have just about sorted out my clothing issues, but some still have the wrong animations. <-This is one of the new issues.

Here is an example of the new issue, and how it's now all combined:

#HK Shirt Needs Hue CHANGE
772 {913} 0
772 is gump 50772/0xC654 (used to be a good slot per the 50k-50,999 / 60k-60,999 rule)
913 is the animation for a doublet
0 is the hue (or lack of a hue in this case)

When you wear this it is fine on the paperdoll, but the animation is of the NPC_Adranath(772) on the character.

Here is one that is fine, but the gump "anim number" isn't currently in use:
#Pegasus Robe GOOD
#C514 50452 452
452 {987} 0

So what it looks like (I'll be testing this today), is any gump slots that end up being a currently used animation will be forced to be the new animation. Meaning, like the HK Shirt; it's tiledata gump number 772 is Adranath and when you wear it your character will wear a Adranath. I found this type of looping when I did the exodus encounter.

The old way was the gump was linked to a animation number then added to body.def minus 50k. (mulpatcher)

Here is a tiny script I made to make all this a ~little~ bit easier:

Code:

I haven't looked at the flags in great detail, but I always wondered why Inside UO and fiddler had several unknown flags listed. It seems like we haven't ever had a complete listing, even though it was readily available in the 2.x.x.x client series.

Compare this screenshot with UO fiddler:

So i added an item and it added the stair_right flag, why it doesnt work as an stair? hehe

Falkor · Dec 10, 2018

I copied an existing "stair right" item and the flags were: Surface, Bridge, NoShoot, StairRight. Also, it needs to know the height -- I used 5. The item works perfectly as a new stair.

StairLeft uses just Surface, Bridge, NoShoot.
