Making a server and making a custom skin.

Two questions. One is how would I go about making a server? All the guides I found were out of date. Next is how would could I make an extra sprite? Its bothering me how A and F only have two characters while D and C have three.

Re: Making a server and making a custom skin.

If you want to set up your own server with code changes, this one is great:

Just skip the versino numbers and offsets, that's only if you're also making your own client I think.

If you're not doing code changes, that link also works, just stop after downloading the vm and running the server part (which is basically just following the first link).

If you're running a server on linode, it's slightly more complicated, but not much.

Sprites-wise, you'd have to ask someone else, but from what I hear it's just a drop in replacement, anyone can do it with a little knowledge of what to place where.

Re: Making a server and making a custom skin.

characters are objects, which is a set of sprites
you can technically make one by editing an existing one
you could make new one but others cannot load that in without client modification to my best knowledge

it's a lot of work
first of all you need a diff editor which shows the similarities and differences
then check each difference and create a new one instead
for example there are 5 hair changes (baby hair is too simple, not much reason to edit)
then 2 mouths(nose included), eye is same the whole life
females got tiddies and vags, males got braners, other than that the body is the same

there are categories in onetech you can check

if you do this it will only be client side change, and it cant even show up to others so new categories only work on private servers with custom files
if you edit the current objects to new ones, then you will see the changes but for others will look the same

you can do stuff that is visible to you, even create different looking pies cause they exist
a new character doesn't exist for others

Playing OHOL optimally is like cosplaying a cactus: stand still and don't waste the water.
