I'm trying to change what a specific Scarab Beetle drops but I'm unable to find any references to change the item that's dropped.
The NPC in question is entity 41915066
And I believe it drops a Somber 6
This NPC is located in Deeproot Depths, I've searched the Treasure references & ItemLot Params with no success.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
Cannot find References to an item drop
wise isle
Have searched for the EntityId in the map as well as events?
dry ether
I don't see anything listed "EntityId" in the Map Editor
wise isle
Look at the scarab, he almost certainly has an EntityId
dry ether
Entity ID of the Scarab is 12030354
wise isle
Look for that value in the Deeproot Depths event file
wise isle
You aren't looking for these, events are scripts for each map file and special drops like the scarab are handled there so they go right into your inventory without having to pick them up
dry ether
So I can't find the referenced drop using Smithbox?
wise isle
Not with this type of drop
Treasure events here are for items found throughout the map, not dependent upon enemies.
dry ether
Well scarab beetles are the only thing so far I've been unable to change
Every other drop type is handled through Treasure or baked directly into the params
Very strange, but thanks for the help
wise isle
Every single drop is defined in ItemLotParam_map, the difference between methods is how it's awarded to you
dry ether
But that's what I'm saying, this specific drop isn't listen there, well it probably is but it's un-named for some reason. I've been able to change scarab drops in the past using ItemLotParam_Map
But this Somber 6 isn't named, and with no references to go off I'm unable to find it
wise isle
It's not listed here because these are not the types of events I am talking about, events are scripts for each map that handle a bunch of things one of which being scripted drops for enemies, you need Darkscript to edit them as they are seperate from the map editor
dry ether
But other Scarab drop are listed under ItemLotParam_Map
Just with no references
I can confirm that changing them here does change the dropped item
wise isle
Some params are named and some aren't, also the names in these params aren't From's they are community names. From stripped the params of names when the game was released
dry ether
Ye I'm aware of that
wise isle
But other Scarab drop are listed under ItemLotParam_Map
Then I am not certain what you are saying here, the Id of the ItemLotParam used for the Scarab will be directly referenced in the Deeproot events so if you look there you will find it
dry ether
I'm just not sure where to look, Under the Event tab I can only find asset references
wise isle
The events tab in the map is not the events I am talking about.
Download the newest update of Darkscript and you'll be able to edit the events

Much appreciated, I'll take a look

Tried opening up event -> m12_03_00_00 in DarkScript
It then opens up the event -> directory & asks for a .dll There is no .dll to select, closing the window just gives an error
solar mist
yeah you have to copy oo2core_6_win64.dll from the game install directory
to the darkscript folder, next to the .exe
it needs it to decompress the event files
dry ether
Fixed it, thanks!
dry ether
TY! haha
solar mist
dry ether
At least I know how to find it myself in the future
solar mist
that instructions calls a parametrized event in common_func, one of the arguments is the itemlot
it's the only match for the scarab's entity ID in the map, so that one's easy
dry ether
Seeing this makes me have so much more respect for the people who named everything in the params
solar mist
yep lol
