Intro

You can have up to 10,000 mob IDs. This guide was written without testing on
Git; use at your own discretion. Well, its pretty easy if you do it correctly
and go step by step without rushing.

Gettings Started

Database Structure

Let's take a look at the structure of the entries in mob_db.conf:

Note: If you're adding custom mobs, it's better to add them to mob_db2.conf

Fields	Description
Id	ID of the mob
*SpriteName*	This first name is the DB name. When you use
@spawn/@summon and you know the name of the mob, but not the ID, type this
name instead. Try making the normal name the same as this so you wont get
confused.
*Name*	This is the name the server shows.
Lv	Level of the mob
Hp	HP of the mob
Sp	SP of the mob
*Exp*	Exp granted by the mob

*Attack2*	Affects MATK of the mob
*Def*	Defense of the mob (Tip: 100 def = Invulnerability below 8K
attack. Watch out, only melee/ranged attacks, but generally direct hits
attacks are drastically reduced. Setting this high enough may make monks
pretty cheap to level because of of Psychic Wave/Occult Impact/Investigate.)
*MDef*	Magic Defense of the mob (Hint: 100 mdef = golden thief bug
effect below 9K magic attack. It's for all magic-using skills.)
*Stats*	All Stats of mobs belongs to this block.
Description

*Int*	Intelligence of the mob. This also affects its MATK.
*Dex*	Dexterity of the mob. This also affects the mob hit rate.
*Luk*	Luck of the mob. This also defines the mob perfect dodge/lucky
flee/perfect flee/lucky dodge rate.
*ViewRange*	Maximum Skill Range
*ChaseRange*	Sight limit for mobs. If set to 1000 or beyond, mobs will
follow you all over the map.
*Size*	0 if its Small, 1 if its Medium, 2 if its Large

or Small=Size_Small, Medium=Size_Medium, Large=Size_Large

Race | 0=formless, 1=undead, 2=animal, 3=plant, 4=insect, 5=fish,
6=demon, 7=demihuman, 8=angel, 9=dragon.

or formless=RC_Formless, undead=RC_Undead, animal=RC_Brute, plant=RC_Plant,
fish=RC_Fish, demihuman=RC_DemiHuman, angel=RC_Angel, dragon=RC_Dragon.

Element | This is a two-digit number representing the rank (level) and
element of the mob.

Element(Type) | Element Type of mob as mentioned below.
| | Neutral | Water | Earth | Fire | Wind | Poison | Holy | Shadow | Ghost |
Undead
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---
Type | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9

or "Ele_Name" (Neutral, Water, Earth, Fire, Wind, Poison, Holy, Shadow, Ghost,
Undead.)

Element(Level) | Element level of mob from (1-4).

Mode | This defines the mob behaves.
MoveSpeed | Walking speed of the mob. 1 is the fastest, 1000 is the
lowest. 100 is the normal walking speed.
AttackDelay | ADelay= Attack Delay, also known as ASPD. This one will
change the aspd of the mob. The lower the faster, but don't make it too low or
it will lag when mobbed by several of these.
AttackMotion | Attack animation motion. Lower this value and the mob's
attack will be displayed in higher fps (making it shorter, too) (Thanks to
Wallex for this)
DamageMotion | Damage animation motion, same as aMotion but used to
display the "I am hit" animation. Coincidentally, this same value is used to
determine how long it is before the mob/player can move again. Endure is
dMotion = 0, obviously.
MvpExp | The MVP exp the mob gives when it is defeated (to the player
who got the MVP reward) (This exp is a percentage of the exp the monster
gives.)
The following fields are for drops and drop rates. Remember that these are in
percentages; i.e. 100 = 100% MvpDrops | The MvP Drops goes here,
format is:

AegisName: Chance

Example:

Poring_Card: 1000

Drops | The Normal Drops goes here, format is:

AegisName: Chance

Example:

Poring_Card: 1000

Making it visible

Server Side

If you've got a sprite and you're happy with it, then you can skip this part.
If you would like to make your mob look like another mob, or even a player,
then you need to take a look at {{git|db/mob_avail.txt|full}}

For normal mobs, you can use the data that's already in the file as an example
to work on:

// mob_id,sprite_id,equip #
// iRO Halloween Event 2008
//3000,1015,0
//3001,1036,0
//3002,1298,0

// iRO Halloween Event 2009
//3014,1179,0
//3015,1272,0

However, if you would like to make your mob look like a character, you need to
add more options:
// Valaris

MobID | SpriteID | Sex | Hair | Hair_Color | Weapon | Shield | Head_Top
| Head_Middle | Head_Bottom | Option | Dye_Color
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---
1900, | 4013, | 1, | 1, | 1, | 1254, | 0, | 67, | 12, | 54, | 16, |
1

You will need to use the Item ID for your mob's weapon and shield instead of
the View ID of the item. Doing so may have undesirable effects.

A more in-depth look at each value:

MobID : This is your mob ID.
SpriteID : The Job number you want it to look like. They are:

Job_Novice 0
Job_Swordman 1
Job_Mage 2
Job_Archer 3
Job_Acolyte 4
Job_Merchant 5
Job_Thief 6
Job_Knight 7
Job_Priest 8
Job_Wizard 9
Job_Blacksmith 10
etc

They can also be found on {{git|db/const.txt}} file.

Sex : 0 for female, 1 for male
Hair : The mob hair style, goes from 1 to 23
Hair_Color : The mob hair color. Goes from 0 to 8 or 10, but it depends
on the server's palette files.
Weapon :The ID of the Weapon you want. See Custom_weapons for it. Also read at the end of the pre if you cant find the
headgear you want.
Shield : Same as above
Head_Top : Same as above
Head_Middle : Same as above
Head_Bottom : Same as above
Option : this option parameter will make the mob change its status, as
well as give them carts, pecopecos, and falcons. In other words, this will
change the visual effects of your mobs. The options are these*:

 1 Sight             32 Peco Peco riding   2048 Orc Head
 2 Hide              64 GM Perfect Hide    4096 Wedding Sprites
 4 Cloak            128 Level 2 Cart       8192 Ruwach
 8 Level 1 Cart     256 Level 3 Cart
16 Falcon           512 Level 4 Cart
                   1024 Level 5 Cart

Dye_Color : Same as hair color. It goes from 0 to 77

Client Side

For your mob to exist in the client, you need to add it to a few [Lua]
files.

datainfo/npcidentity.lua

Example at the end of the file:

    ["JT_4_F_TAEKWON"] = 644,
    ["JT_4_F_SWORDMAN"] = 645,
    -- Custom Mobs
    ["JT_JACOB"] = 2500,
    ["JT_AQUARING"] = 2600
}

The number after the = sign denotes the mob's database ID number. Other
sprites in this file have their view ID e.g. Adding_a_Script#Client_Side.

datainfo/jobname.lua

Example at the end of the file:

    [jobtbl.JT_GIBBET] = "GIBBET",
    [jobtbl.JT_DULLAHAN] = "DULLAHAN",
    [jobtbl.JT_LOLI_RURI] = "LOLI_RURI",
    [jobtbl.JT_DISGUISE] = "DISGUISE",
    -- Custom Mobs
    [jobtbl.JT_JACOB] = "jacobmob",
    [jobtbl.JT_AQUARING] = "aquaring"
}

In this file, the value after the = sign is the name of the actual sprite in
your data folder/[GRF]

Your mob in other files

Dead Branch

Adding your mob to {{git|db/pre-re/mob_branch.txt}} or
{{git|db/re/mob_branch.txt}} will allow Dead Branches to summon it.

Bloody Branch

Adding your mob to {{git|db/pre-re/mob_boss.txt}} or
{{git|db/re/mob_boss.txt}} will allow Bloody Branches to summon it.

Poring Box

Adding your mob to {{git|db/pre-re/mob_poring.txt}} or
{{git|db/re/mob_poring.txt}} will make your mob spawnable via the Poring Box.

Monster Racial Groups

Adding your mob to {{git|db/pre-re/mob_race2_db.txt}} or
{{git|db/re/mob_race2_db.txt}} will add your mob to a Racial_Group. Guardians, Goblins and other mobs are members of particular Racial
Groups.

Red Pouch of Surprise

Adding your mob to {{git|db/mob_pouch.txt}} will make your mob spawnable via
the Red Pouch of Surprise.

Spawn Points

Let's look at the syntax of a mob spawn point:

&lt;map name&gt;,&lt;x1&gt;,&lt;y1&gt;,&lt;x2&gt;,&lt;y2&gt;%TAB%monster%TAB%&lt;monster name&gt;%TAB%&lt;mob id&gt;,&lt;amount&gt;,&lt;delay1&gt;,&lt;delay2&gt;,&lt;event&gt;{,&lt;mob size&gt;,&lt;mob ai&gt;}

Only the things between
map name : Name of the map. Use /where along with the following
coordinates
x1 : X axis coordinates. It start from the left side of the map, and the
higher it gets, the more it gets closer to the right side of the map.
y1 : Y axis coordinates. It start from the bottom, and the higher it
gets, the more it gets closer to the top of the map.
x2 : X axis coordinates. It start from the left side of the map, and the
higher it gets, the more it gets closer to the right side of the map.
y2 : Y axis coordinates. It start from the bottom, and the higher it
gets, the more it gets closer to the top of the map.
These 4 coordinates will make a spawn area where the mob will spawn, however
it won't limit its movement, so lets say you put 120,150 on the first pair,
and 130,160 pair- That's a 10x10 cell area where the mob will spawn randomly.
If you want the mob to spawn at a random point, use 0 for all the coordinates.
monster name : The name of the mob you want to be shown (using --ja-- in
place of a name will display the "Japanese Name" from your database).
You can specify a custom level to use for the mob different from the one of
the database by adjoining the level after the name with a comma. eg:
"Poring,50" for a name will spawn a monster with name Poring and level 50.
mob id : The ID of your mob.
amount : How many mobs you want to be spawned.
delay1 : Minimum amount of time before a monster respawns.
delay2 : Maximum amount of time before a monster respawns.
delay1 and delay2 are used to define the time it takes for a monster to
respawn; in milliseconds. Normal mobs usually have 0 (Instant Respawn), while
MVPs have 7200000 (2 hours). If delay2 is greater than delay 1, the mob won't
respawn until the map server restarts.
event : Script event to be executed when the mob is killed. The event
must be in the form "NPCName::OnEventName" to execute, and the event name
label should start with "On". As with all events, if the NPC is an on-touch
NPC, the player who triggers the script must be within 'trigger' range for the
event to work.
size : Optional. Size can be 0 (medium), 1 (small), or 2 (big).
ai : Optional. AI can be 0 (default), 1 (attack/friendly), 2 (sphere), 3
(flora), or 4 (zanzou).

Adding Skills

Lets look at the syntax of a mob skill:

MOB_ID, a unused dummy character sequence (for information only), STATE, SKILL_ID, SKILL_LV,
rate (10000 = 100%), casttime, delay, cancelable, a target, a condition type, a condition value,
a value 1, a value 2, a value 3, a value 4, a value 5, emotion

*_NOTE: I had to cut the mob_avail structure so it could fit. It's a whole
line, not 3 lines. _ *

MOD_ID : your mob ID.
an unused.. etc etc : you can put any text here you want, its just for
information and to know what does this do. tip tipYou will see inside this
file things like Poring@TF_POISON. Well, you could use this too. It would tell
you: mob_name@DB_Skill_Name. tip tip
state : this is the state that the mob must accomplish before being able
to use this skill. The states are:

any, idle (in standby), walk (in movement), attack, dead (on killed), loot, chase (following target),
counterattack.

SKILL_ID : The ID of the skill goes here. To look for one, go to your db
folder and open the skill_db.txt file. You will see a lot of lines like this
one:

2,0,0,0,0,0,10,0,no,0,0,0,weapon,0 //SM_SWORD#Œ•C—û#

And the syntax is:

id,range,hit,inf,pl,nk,max,list_num,castcancel,cast_defence_rate,inf2,maxcount,skill_type,blow_count

so, the ID of the SM_SWORD, which is the Swordman's Sword Mastery by the way,
is 2:

**2** ,0,0,0,0,0,10,0,no,0,0,0,weapon,0 //SM_SWORD#Œ•C—û#

SKILL_LV : You can put the skill level as high as you want. Though, 100
is usually as far as most skills go.
rate : How frequent will the mob use the skill.
casttime : Skill's cast time.
delay : How much time must pass before the skill can be used again, in
milliseconds.
cancelable : if the skill cast can be interrupted. Set it either yes
or no.
a target : the target of the skill. It can be:

target (player), self (the mob itself), friend (slaves)

a condition type :a condition that also must be fulfilled before the mob
is able to use this skill. There are two kinds of conditions:

1. Mob Condition:

//conditions: (condition type) (value which specifies a condition value)
// always            unconditional
// myhpltmaxrate     when the mob's hp drops to a certain %
// mystatuson        If the mob has any abnormalities in status (condition value),
// mystatusoff       If the mob has ended any abnormalities in status (condition value),
// friendhpltmaxrate when the mobs' friend's hp drops to a certain %
// friendstatuson    If the friend has any abnormalities in status (condition value),
// friendstatusoff   If the friend has ended any abnormalities in status (condition value),
// attackpcgt        Attack PC becomes more than the  number of specification
// attackpcge        Attack PC becomes equal or more than the number of specification.
// slavelt           when the number of slaves is lower than the original number of specification.
// slavele           when the number of slaves is lower or equal than the original number of specification.
// closedattacked    when melee attacked (close range attack)
// longrangeattacked when long ranged attacked (like bows and far range weapons)
// skillused         when a skill is used on the mob
// casttargeted      when a target is in cast range.
// rudeattacked      when a target is rude attacked
// hiding            when a target is hidden *not implemented yet*

2. Target Conditions

// The character's state which can be specified to be a condition value
// by the statuson/statusoff system
//
// anybad      any type of state change
// stone       condition of being in stone state
// freeze      condition of being in frozen state
// stan        condition of being in stunned state
// sleep       condition of being in sleep state
// poison      condition of being in poisoned state
// curse       condition of being in cursed state
// silence     condition of being in silenced state
// confusion   condition of being in confusion state
// blind       condition of being in blind state
// hiding      condition of being in hidden state
// sight       condition of being in unhidden state

You can use only ONE of these conditions.

value1,value2,value3,value4,value5 : Basically they're only the same
but, when you want your mob using the same condition to trigger the skill, but
in different times, in case of the myhpltmaxrate when the hp is being
decreased, you can set them in a decreasing order, like:

80,60,40,20,10

emotion : Lets your mob use an emotion, at random times. The emotion IDs
are:

e_gasp 0
e_what 1
e_ho 2
e_lv 3
e_swt 4
e_ic 5
etc

For more info, go to your {{git|db/const.txt}} file.

Making it talk!

Another add, suggested by chronocrosser_x and Fenrir Soarblade:

Well, I believe you have seen some mobs on your server talking when certain
things happens. I never saw them again talking, dont know why but they used to
talk. I believe they still do it.

Ok, go to your Data folder. If you look in the files, you should find a file
called monstertalktable. If there isnt, we will create one with Wordpad =3!.
If there is, open it with Wordpad, not Notepad.

Once there, we will copy and paste this:

&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="euc-kr" ?&gt;

&lt;enemy_monster_talk_table&gt;

&lt;mob_db_name_here&gt; 
  &lt;discovery&gt;&lt;/discovery&gt;
  &lt;attack&gt;&lt;/attack&gt;
  &lt;hp50&gt;&lt;/hp50&gt;
  &lt;hp25&gt;&lt;/hp25&gt;
  &lt;kill&gt;&lt;/kill&gt;
  &lt;dead&gt;&lt;/dead&gt;
&lt;/mob_db_name_here&gt; 
&lt;/enemy_monster_talk_table&gt;

Well, lets see step by step =3!:

< enemy_monster_talk_table>: This is the start of the monster talk
table. Leave it as it is =3!
< mob_db_name_here>: The mob_db.txt first name you see, after the ID,
goes here =3! Its used to identify the mob
< discovery>%TAB%Text Here%TAB%</discovery>: This is an event, same as
the one below. When a monster see you, this one will be displayed =3!
< attack>%TAB%Text Here%TAB%</attack>: When a monster attacks you, this
one will be displayed O_O!
< hp50>%TAB%Text Here%TAB%</hp50>: When a monster's hp is at 50%, this
one will be displayed o..o!
< hp25>%TAB%Text Here%TAB%</hp25>: When a monster's hp is at 25%, this
one will be displayed x,x
< kill>%TAB%Text Here%TAB%</kill>: When a monster kills a
