1-Start out by going to you MY COMPUTER

2-Then go to C

3-Then go to PROGRAM FILES

4-Then go to SILKROAD

5-Then locate media-pk2, right click that file send to MY DOCUMENTS The reason why you send it to MY DOCUMENTS, cuz you want to work with the copy file not the original, just in case you mess up you still have a good copy on your SILKROAD folder to run you game.

6-Now load up your PK2 Extractor

7-Now locate media.pk2 file should be under
-C:\Documents and Setting\Administrator\My Documents\Media.pk2
or it should be where you send it to earlier locate it and load it

8-After you load it there is a button on bottom left call Extract file hit it

9-After you successfully extract it there should by a folder under MY DOCUMENT
call Media open that folder

10-Then go to resinfo

11-Then locate skilleffect text file, right click that file chose Open With,
Choose Program, Wordpad

12-After you have that open go to Edit, Find, find box will appear on
screen type in FIRE_GIGONGSUL_C, click find next, first time is short entry
skip that, click find next one more time, this time you will find something like below

13-Under there, there are two line of code, highlight that and copy

14-Then croll back to top of that file, then do another search, this time search
for LIGHTNING_STORM_A, then click find next, first time is short entry skip
that, click find next one more time this time it'll bring you to something look like below

15-Then highlight these two lines

16-Then paste other two lines of code there (the one you just copy)

17-Then rename it LIGHTNING_STORM_A

18-Then scroll back to the top do another search FIRE_GIGONGSUL_C, click
find next, this time you will find short entry there, highlight and copy that

19-Then scroll back to the top do another search LIGHTNING_STORM_A
this time you also find a short entry there, highlight that and past what
you just copy.

20-Then rename it to LIGHTNING_STORM_A

21-Then scroll back to the top do another search LIGHTNING_STORM_A,
click find next twice, it will bring you to the long entry one

22-Highlight those two lines of code

23-Then open new NotePad file and past two lines of code you just copy
from Wordpad

24-Then go back to your WordPad document, scroll back to top
do another search COLD_GIGONGSUL_B, hit find next twice, it should bring
you to something like below

25-Highlight all that and copy

26-Then go to NotePad, give it a couple of space and paste what you
just copy there

27-Then highlight just like I have it below and copy it

28-Then paste it, just like what I have it below

29-I'm runnin out of time, i'm going to move fast now, I have to go to work
in a minute, already spend 3hrs on this, Then change it to what I instruct it below

30-Change that

31-Change that

32-Add that

33-Change that

34-Change that

35-Change that

36-Then highlight and copy all that

37-Now go back to WordPad, scroll back to top do another search
LIGHTING_STORM_A, hit find next twice, you should have something like
below

38-Then highlight those tow lines of code and past on there what you just copy from NotePad

39-It will look something like below

40-Before you save the document, browse to your skilleffect file
should be under - My Document - Media - resinfo - skilleffect
right click and copy that then past it on your Desktop, reason why we do that
we just want to compare two files to make sure they have same byte.
41-Now save your documents from WordPad
42-Open your HexEdit 121
43-Load skilleffect file that you just save
Should be under - My Documents >Media>resinfo>skilleffect
Then right click skilleffect on your desktop chose Properties
(the one that I told you to paste it to your desktop)
now it look something like this, bytes are different

44-As you can see the one we edit got more bytes than the original one, so
in this case go back to Wordpad, load up your skilleffect again
Should be under - My Documents >Media>resinfo>skilleffect
45-Do a search for \\ like the one I have below

46-I took program class before so I know any code begin with that two
slask it's just comments, so if you delete anything with that two slask infront
it's not going to effect you file in anyway. Find a couples entry with that two
slack infont and delete them, do it until the bytes that you working on your
file is lower than the orginal. like something below. To check if bytes is smaller
than orginal use HexEdit121 like picture below

47-After you got the bytes on file you working with lower than the original,
scroll down to bottom of that skilleffect that you load it with HexEdit121, keep adding 0(zero) until it match like the one below

48-After bytes are the same go to Edit, Select All, copy

49-Now load up your media.pk2 file using HexEdit121
Should be under My Document
50-After load it do a search for
23 73 65 63 74 69 6f 6e 09 63 68 61 72 61 63 74
Like the one below

51-Then you should have something like below

52-Infront of number 23 paste what you just copy from skilleffect
53-Save your media.pk2
54-Now browse to you Silkroadk folder
-Should be under My Computer - C - Program Files - Silkroad
-Locate media.pk2 file on there and bring it out to your desktop
(Click and drag it out, dont copy it)
-Then go to My Document folder where we have the other media.pk2
that we just edit, drag that one and place it into your Silkroad folder
55-Run Silkroad and have fun.

Sorry have to go to work now, i'm working on tutorial tonight
and post it up as soon as possible, please also excuse my english,
i'm not good at english, so bare with, i trying to make it as clear
as possible.

thnx i'll be waiting for it..

Oh! I got it now, already repost to top, Thanx for advice! also thank you
for showing me how to post screen shoot.

Excelent guide, only one thing... i doubt extracting all txt files is needed... you can always just extract skilleffect.txt

The updates change their sizes anyway so, why extracting the whole package everytime you want to edit after an update? Waste of HD space imo

But great edit indeed.

Nice and clear guide with Pics.

Repost it somewhere as a separate thread? (If you haven't already)

+1

this way it'll be much more easier for your thread to be seen or u can just repost it at the top page of your thread..

Thanx! Hyorunmarouz for your advice on how to extract just that one
file, actually I don't know how to do that, but I'll try to find out how to do that
I'm going to work on more advance edit in the next couple of days, when
my work settle , oh BTW can someone please show me how to video skill and
post it up here.

To extract just that, go to Server_dep in the PK2 extractor (double click) then, find skilleffect.txt, and double click it, it will then ask you the directory...

If you want to record the in-game action, get a program like FRAPS, when you are running the game and have FRAPS in the background, you only need to press a key and start recording, though it slows down your PC a bit...

pls look at your pm viagrastim !!!! wanna tell you something......

It seemed so clear at the beginning, then I wasn't sure exactly what was happening... But it is the clearest guide EVER, I might try to pull it off myself in a bit.

are you the only person so see this ?
Or can everybody see the skill ?

Only you, as every pk2 edit we do here.

where cna i get the pk2 extractor from ?

NICE VERY CLEAR!!

Im gonna try it later

Nice!!!
