This is called SetGrav. While it doesn't have much of a use, it's fun to use. Late night MPG trial groups just type /setgrav .05 and jump around the room. It's like the matrix IEQL :)

REGULAR GRAVITY IS: .4

Rich (BB code):
VOID SetGrav(PSPAWNINFO pChar, PCHAR szLine) {

	CHAR szMsg[MAX_STRING] = {0};
	CHAR Arg1[MAX_STRING];

	GetArg(Arg1,szLine,1);

	bRunNextCommand = TRUE;

	if (Arg1[0]!=0)
		{
		((PZONEINFO)pZoneInfo)->ZoneGravity = (FLOAT)(atof(Arg1));
		}
	else
		{
		sprintf(szMsg,"Current Gravity is: %3.2f",((PZONEINFO)pZoneInfo)->ZoneGravity);
		WriteChatColor(szMsg,USERCOLOR_DEFAULT);
		}

return;

}
 
Re: A little fun set of code

This is kinda cool lol like u said not much of a use but neat =P
 
Ahh, this is what people were asking about?

Does this still work?
 
There's another thread for setgrav actually and it can be used to invert gravity and kill a mob with a bard by dotting it and never getting agro. Outdoor zones only because of the high sky.

OOOW! can someone tell me where to find this? been looking but cant find, sounds like a bad ass ability.
 
Ok i kinda hate posting this cause i've been playin with this for the past few nights... But i was wondering if anyone had any ideas or have done mobs with this... be it raid or not. I do know that you can do a02 with this... I've been tryin to get that darn 1hb for sometime now. Heres what i have tried... Stillmoon instance (fly's through the ceiling) The Nest Instance (for XP and loot, but no flat ceiling so can't cast, even if i could the casters start beating me) Ao2 (works like a champ on the eggs, just pick an egg in the middle of the room.. otherwise you go flyin) HoH (they grab agro) So any ideas?
 
Even if someone does feel like sharing the DLL. You get no experience from a kill using the /setgrav. You only get looting rights. Its not that hard to find such a .dll of this... I found it a while back. But i'm just clarifying that you have to basically be outdoors, within range, and you still get summoned sometimes, So, there is no real benefit for this to a certain degree. Have a nice day :)
 
Can I compile this and use it safe like the map? Or is it packet hack even if I'm levi.
 
You can compile and use it, but I'd warn you not to use it when there are other characters that might end up in line of sight to you.
 
Welll for those who think this is not of use man your so wrong lol. Its one of the coolest things to help you out that you can have. Especially if you Box toons. For instance if you do /setgrave 0 when you jump you go up to 2000 feet or so and I box a cleric to heal my rogue. Well when cleric is that high he never ever gets aggro and can't be summoned. I played with it so damb much it was so cool. Also when you were able to Ghost Kill I would /setgrav 0 jump monk and cleric up to 2000 feet and when someone comes into the zone they can't see you. I was being risky but anyhow you could ghost kill from 2000 feet and for the most part never be seen by anyone your too high up. For the most part I Ghost killed in instance to be safe. However I did it in Ashengate just setgrav 0 jump up and ghostkill upper right corner of map then warp to target ( dead mob in corner) then go to work ghostkilling upper left corner of map and could basicly wipe out whole zone in the early wee hours of the morning. Also seeing how no one hardly very rarely go their anymore it was cool because I kept monk at level 70 so everything was red in zone. I could get like 50 aa using the Lesons vet skill double exp on reds rocked. Also when your were able to warp you could do /warpsuccor and be at zoneline. Best thing though was I was boxing my rogue and friends cleric and a shaman and another monk all /setgrav 0 at 2000 feet invisible in general area of my killing mobs with monk sucking up that exp with no worries of getting seen or aggro. In other words it was very rare that I had to worry about dieing or wiping my group of boxed toons just move them around doing /warptarget ( some dead mob in general area) all hot buttons of course hit the /setgrave 0 hot button and go at it again. Very very usefull thing to be able to do. Hell even if you can't Ghost kill and your boxing a healer or slower or whatever heal your tank or whatever and not worry about aggro. My 2 cents on the skill one of the best to have lol. :)

You can get summoned but if your smart with it and practice its RARE. Also someone said you could be in line of sight. Well if your at /setgrav 0 you go up so high you CAN"T be seen unless someone is using the hack that lets you see all the mobs on the map . Be smart stay invis. I like my Rogue because you cant see me when I am SOS unlike invis unless your in my group.
 
Hmm actully I think You can see SoS if you have two worn See invis items, but any way I have a bard and wounder can I kill mobs even without ghost? If not is anyone claiming to have ghost plugin for sale. I have no other subscrips besides here and MQ2.
 
To see through SoS, you need to put a see invis aug on a faerune item. On Zek most people put a DoN aug on the Cloak of the Spirit Hunter, and that's standard issue if you're 70+ (and not a noob of course).
 
Ya you can kill without Ghostkill being a bard. You can cast on mobs from way up their. Can slow them or dot whatever. Its harder to get summoned from /setgrav 0 but you can be summoned. Thats why I liked /warpsuccor when it was available because if I ever got into trouble with any of my toons I just hit the hot button /warpsuccor and am at the zoneline heh. It so rocked.

Well, you can still just do /warp succor..
 
Could someone clue me in on how to use this bit of code? I've tried putting it in it's own plugin to compile but it wont work without errors, it seems to be a snippet to be put somewhere else?

Thanks ahead of time.
 
Ahh those were the days...

I used to (ghost)kill Raid mobs in Elddar Forest. Did almost every day for a month. That was a challenging zone. Once you start beating up on certain mobs the zone would get all stirred up like a hornets nest. Never got caught (well, never got banned or suspended anyway) and made millions of plat, not to mention looting that Sharpshooting cape for all 3 of my Rangers.

But, as far as I know, that kind of ability is no longer possible.
 
i read through these posts and didnt see anything mentioned so i will post it. you can also max safe fall using this, normal gravity is 0.4 so i set it for a higher number like 5 and jumped. you dont actually jump up but your safe fall will go up, also works if there is a ledge but careful because gravity that high and a ledge too far down can possibly result in death, not sure really because i havent died from it but im sure you would. anyway sorry if this is already posted i seem to recall reading something about this a while ago but i dont remember really.
 
if u set it hight enough i dont think u even need to jump lol u can just run around and it will max out your safe fall, at least from what i remember lol
 
I never did get it to work for me personally. Tried more than a few times, felt close but never got it
 
I used to use this as a bard quite a bit. If you FM every once in a while, you won't get summoned.
