EQEmulator Forums - Alternate Currencies

For the later clients like SoF and SoD, there are new alternate currencies available, that are not coded yet. I looked into them a little, but don't have much info to go on for them. I also don't have any access to be able to get collects of using "create"/"Reclaim" on them, or attaining or spending them.

Currently, the only info I have about them from collects is the single packet sent when zoning. Here is the packet from a ShowEQ collect:

Code:

May 04 2010 04:48:17:403 [Decoded] [Server->Client] [Size: 308]

[OPCode: 0x659e]

From breaking down that packet and doing a little searching around, here is the basic idea of the structures for that packet:

Code:

// Sent after OP_ReqNewZone from Client

struct AltCurrency_Struct {

        int32        unknown000;                        // Seen 8

        int32        total_currencies;        // Seen 12

        Currencies_Struct currencies[total_currencies];

};



struct Currencies_Struct {

        int32        currency_number;        // Starts at 10 and counts up

        int32        unknown001;                        // Seen 1

        int32        currency_number2;        // Same as currency_number

        int32        item_id;                        // Item ID used for the currency

        int32        item_icon;                        // Icon for the currency to display

        int32        stacksize;                        // Seen 1000

        int8        unknown003;                        // Seen mostly 0 and some 1

};

And here is a list of the ones currently sent on Live:

Code:

Plural Name - Singular Name - Item ID

Doubloons - Doubloon 79910

Orux - Orum 79911

Phosphenes - Phosphene 79912

Phosphites - 79913

Faycitum - ? - 

Chronobines - Chronobine 103000

Silver Tokens - Silver Token 43942

Gold Tokens - Gold Token 43943

McKenzie's Special Brew - McKenzie's Special Brew 41408

Bayle Marks - Bayle Mark 46779

Recovery Tokens - ? - 

Brellium Tokens - Brellium Token 47900

I don't know when/if I will get around to doing more work on these, but I figured I would post this here for future reference, or in case someone else wants to look into them further or add more info on them.
