How to add OT creature corpses to Xenobot!

[evultoad]

Update: Made a really quick video showing the process https://youtu.be/Vi3n1MqJohk
Information how to do this is scattered around the forum, so I thought I'd make a simple guide in one place with all the information that you need.

Ill warn you now, if you delete anything that your not supposed to in any of these files, you WILL affect the way the Xeno works and possibly break it. So follow these steps EXACTLY!

Step 1: Locate your Xenobot install directory. In this example we will use mine, which MAY be different to yours. In this you will need to open the Data folder.
C:\Program Files (x86)\XenoBot\Data

Step 2: Find the your 3 latest files similar to these highlighted files. Remember that these were the three latest at time of making this guide and if its been updated yours may be different
12627
it.0020.14.11.19.899.xml
it.0021.14.11.19.941.xml
it.0022.14.11.19.962.xml

Step 3: Copy these three files to a new folder on your desktop

Step 4: Find the ID of the corpses you wish to add (enable look ID's in xenobot Tools) in this case we will use a cyclops drone:
12629
17:26 You see a dead cyclops (Vol:10). [ID 772]

Step 5:So from this we know that we need to add the line
<item id="772"/>
to each of your three files in your new desktop folder under the <itemtype name="corpses"> section

example of finished file:
12630

Now saving these files in the current naming will throw out an error in most cases as windows doesnt like people using "." dots in their names.
save each file replacing all "." with "_"
example:
it.0020.14.11.19.899.xml
becomes
it.0020_14_11_19_899.xml

you can then delete the old file (The one with .'s in it) and rename the it.
0020_14_11_19_899.xml file to look like it.0020.14.11.19.899.xml

So for a recap:

You copy the files from the Data folder to a new folder on your desktop.
open them
add the corpse ID's.
Save the file with _ replacing the .'s.
Delete the old file (in your desktop folder)
rename the _ files to have .'s instead
then copy + replace these new files into your data folder


Found it really hard making the last part sound as simple as it is. If anyone needs more clarification please let me know.

EDIT: Please note, I copied the files to a desktop folder as my system would not let me save them directly to the xenobot folder. It may be easier to try and save there first to save alot of hassel. Otherwise if like my system you cant save there, follow my instructions in their entirety.
EDIT2: Everytime Xeno updates, you need to update the newly created config file!

Doesnt work. evultoad
I added exactly on the same spot as you did and it doestn work.
Maybe cuz i didnt had to to this step like you
"Now saving these files in the current naming will throw out an error in most cases as windows doesnt like people using "." dots in their names.

0020_14_11_19_899.xml file to look like it.0020.14.11.19.899.xml"

I dont really understand why i should rename it when I can keep it like it is. I just edited and saved it with notepad++. I had no errors.

If you open your edited file, do they have the changes?
plus you need to close tibia AND xenobot, then re-open for the changes to apply

and if your not following my guide exactly how I've described you cant really say it doesn't work.
Do it how I've explained, then come back to me if it doesn't work

I dont want to say that your guide is wrong. it just doesnt work for me. Well i did EXACTLY everything like you described instead of this step where i had to rename the filex like xx_xx_xx it was just not necessary at Win 7.

I still need your help Ill post how i did it

[Kaguya]

First step was to find those files you described
12693
Then i found out which id i had to take
but now im not sure which id was right which wrong, because after 10 seconds the corpses change their ID
1269412695
After that, I wrote the IDs, just like you described, in those 3 files
it.0022.14.11.19.995
it.0021.14.11.19.941
it.0020.14.11.19.899
12696
I added a second corpse id, cuz I need 2 mobs. nvm lets go on.

The next step was to save it in notepad++ and reset my Computer.

Well, it still dont work. Any idea what i made wrong.
I really appriciate your help.

PS: I used the ID which appeared immidiately after the kill.

[Kaguya]

Could someone explain me how Xenobot recognize what he should open what not. I mean you guys told me that i should just add this monster to corpses but all tall there are only like 5 or maybe 6 corps ID's . Tibia has a lot more. Hell yes a lot more. Where are they listed ? CAn i maybe edit them and put those corpses id there in ? Syntax DarkstaR

---------------
And yes im playing on an OT server called Hexera which has nowdays more then 800 players online.
I really need your help guys i made everything i could. Im lil but frustrated. shadowart

[Kaguya]

Small Edit.
I observed something strange. While my paladin was botting. He opened sometime the corspes of an Demon Outcast and sometimes not (mostly not and i did not put him into the xml file under "corpses" ). Well i did not marked the option "Ignore Unlisted : No"

[shadowart]

Corpses generally change id as they decay. Make sure you have the two freshest versions in your list.

[Dejq]

It doesnt work. I did everything step by step, and I can't open deepling corpse's.

[evultoad]

It doesnt work. I did everything step by step, and I can't open deepling corpse's.

so you updated the 3 most recent config files, then closed tibia+ xenobot before opening them back up.
also make sure your entering the correct corpse ID

[aureliodutr]

Também segui todos os passos acima, e não consegui sucesso.

No meu caso é otserv, monstro Stone Colossus e quando ele morre vira Stone Golem, identifiquei os id dos corpos 6005,4133.4134.4135.4136, adicionei nos últimos três
arquivos, fechei o tibia, xenobot, reiniciei o computador e mesmo assim não funcionou.


Desde já agradeço a boa vontade em querer ajudar.


---- Google Translator ----

Also follow all the steps above, and you can not succeed.
In my case is OTServ, monster Stone Colossus and when he dies turns Stone Golem, identified the id of the corpses 6005, 4133. 4134. 4135. 4136, added the last three
files, closed the tibia, xenobot, restarted the notebook and still not worked.
I thank the willingness to want to help.

Obrigado /Thanks

I have noticed something. I tryed to add a Ancient dragon custom id to Archlight OT. What i did i added the most freshest loot 5984, then second freshest loot 4092. And 4092 are for normal Dragon Lords. So i checked how long does it take for the corpse to change to 4092. And it only took like 7 seconds. So my guy only looted the Ancient dragon when there were only one moob couse when the corpse changed to second freshest corpse(4092) then he ignored it. So i am wondering if there is a way to make the character loot the ancient dragon(5984) instantly??

[liraras]

works perfectly to me ! thanks.

Just follow the steps.

[BobDog]

It worked for me! I went one step further and added the info on every single file and now it runs smooth and without any problem.

Thank you very much!

Having issues with getting this working. So in my example here I've tried to add behemoth to the list (Fresh ID = 4112, decayed = 4113). I added <item id="4112"/> (and 4113) under <itemtype name="corpses"> to the 3 most recent it.blah.blah.xml files in the dir\Data folder while Tibia and Xeno were closed, and it still won't loot the custom behemoth monsters. I took it further and added them into every config xml file and still nothing. Not sure if I'm missing something horribly obvious but I've followed the steps and the video (Except my system can save the "." and directly into the Data folder) and I've checked to make sure the changes are saved into the config files.


edit: I've tried several other monsters and I cannot get it to work on any of them, making sure I got the item ID that appears with the first second or two of the kill and the IDs that it changes to after. I've also tried adding/removing the "skin" option for applicable monsters and no change.
