Assistance in Mounts!

[Hazmy]

Hello Everyone!

Most recently I have started working on Mounts for RoR, and sadly the old WAR wiki and other sites have limited information about the Mounts and I think I can say that this community is the best place I can ask for help, so I would be really happy for every LEGIT info you guys can get for me ^^

So far what I know :

Light mounts were obtainable at level 20 at the cost of 15 gold. 3 types of mounts could be purchased for each race. These mounts had 50% Speed Buff with 75% Dismount Chance.

List of these mount types : Ridin' Wulf, Ridin' Boar, Stallion(Empire) , Contraption ( Dwarves ), Mare(Elves) , Marked Steed(Chaos) , Feral Cold Ones(Dark Elves) , Discs ( Magus)

At guild rank 25, three more color options become available for purchase from the quartermaster located within the guild hall.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'd like to know the information on Heavy Mounts, I am mostly interested in what was their cost, and what was the level requirement.

This is the Info I know about them :

At guild rank 37, three more mounts become available for purchase as well. These mounts, however, provide a 60% movement speed increase and because they're armored, a reduction in the chance you have to be dismounted if you are hit.

Also I know their names and types.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Most of the help I would ask about Epic Mounts, since the internet has almost ZERO information about them, I only know their speed and dismount chance. So I am interested in everything you know about Epic Mounts.

I can't even find them in Database^^


Thank you very much in advance!

WAAGH!

Special MountsEdit
After inviting 3 people to WAR who then sign up you will earn a special mount.

Destruction - Manticore
Order - Gryphon
Note: These mounts do not fly as their wings have been clipped.

RvR™ PacksEdit
Timed to coincide with the release of 1.4.0 are two new booster packs that are available for digital download from the EA Store.These packs are broken down into the Progression Pack and the Personality Pack.

The Progression Pack gives players an opportunity to advance through the Renown Ranks faster and advance their character up to Renown Rank 100! This includes access to all bonuses, items, and rewards that are gated by the expanded Renown Ranks. The Personality Pack offers a variety of items to personalize a character. Included in this pack are several vanity pets (in a choice of 4 colors), new heavy mounts (in a choice of 3 colors), access to Barber Surgeon tokens to allow characters to change their look, and access to new and unique dyes on the dyemasters.In the patch notes, there may be references to these packs (as appropriate) with details on how the pack or pack contents affect the feature or notes.
http://warhammeronline.wikia.com/wiki/Game_Update_1.4.0

-Zandri mount /land of the dead (only horses) were 75% speed ( dont remembert dismount chance, maybe 45%?)
-Heavy mounts are refered as the mounts introduced with rvr pack, with 1.4.0 update.
-special mount (see gryphon and manticore) were given as gift for "introduces a friend", togheter with lash of servitude and noather thing.

So far this is the Site I looked for Mount structure :

http://www.zam.com/wiki/Cold_One_%28WAR%29

This site suggests that Heavy mounts are 60% Speed and require Guild level instead of character level, is this info an old patch then you think?

[Tesq]

no there ARE 2 type of heavy mouts one of origianl war system the ones you mentioned, then other got free with rvr pack i mentioned in my post with 1.4.0 rvr expansions. They should have both the same itiem icons but effects are differents and so mounts appereance different slightly.

The heavy guild mounts cost 150 gold and and had level 20 requirement too. They were the best mounts for a while. Then mythic indroduced the RvR pack mounts and with the pack everyone got faster mounts "for free" which made guild mounts obsolete.

[Hazmy]

Ahh thanks that was the info I needed ^^

the RvR Pack Mounts are non-existent so far in the DB so everything you know about them helps me create them and make them how there were!

[Tesq]

Will try to find some image around, expect an update to this post.
I will tell you the icon with the update too.( you can download all icons mounts in "armory need you thread" i make around pag8 a fix for folder of all icons so they are all in order divided by section.

EDIT:ONGOING

Mounts – Receive a high end heavy mount in their choice of three colors. These mounts are useable at Renown Rank 60 and provide a 70% speed bonus with a 45% chance of dismount ( So zandri mount should have a 50% dismount chance and a75% speed)

http://www.ign.com/articles/2010/11/19/ ... -rvr-packs

Exclusives( aka special mouts i wrote aboive, seems magus get his own version i didn0t know it.)
Available only through the Recruit-a-Friend Program, players who recruit six subscribers are awarded with a special mount based on their allegiance.

Order players will receive an Imperial Griffon.
Destruction players will receive an Enslaved Manticore.
Should the player happen to be a Magus, they will receive a special enslaved disk.

Just a note - I'm handling the casting / buff components of mounts as part of the ability rework. The extracted ability tooltips contain the information about speed bonus and dismount chance.

[Hazmy]

Thanks Azarael, the abilities are linked to the correct Light and Heavy Mounts now, I am waiting for them to work and try them out ^^

I still don't know though how are the individual Mount Models are connected to the Mount Summoning Abilities, so If you would need the list of Mounts and the Ability code they are linked to, let me know.

[Azarael]

I don't remember how the old code for mounting works, apart from that the info is stored in mounts_info in the world DB.

The actual mechanism of mounting is that you simply send an F_MOUNT_INFO packet to the client with the model ID of the object you wish to mount (these objects can also be found in the database.) This works mostly for horses, wolves, boars, gyros and Cold Ones, but you can also ride dragons, Empire Steam Tanks and gyrocopters.

The new code uses a Mount command which takes the model ID that you want to ride as part of the buff which handles speed boost and dismount events.
