Alright I decided to make a complete new thread about this seeing as many people pm us or make totally new thread about glow on weapons.

I will try to make it as clear as I can, because at first the original tutorial was hard to follow.

All right here goes:

Step .1
Back your media.pk2 up, the easiest way to do this go into your silkroad file and right click on media.pk2 simply click send to > My Documents. This makes a back up of the file.

Step .2
Open your newly made media.pk2 in the My Documents folder with a program such as xvi32 [ This will be the easiest seeing as I will base all my screenshots on this program ].

Step .3
At this step you should have media.pk2 opened in xvi32. If not restart this guide -lol. Anyways this is the important bit please read this carefully as you won’t be doing much but it is important.
At the top of your xvi32 there should be a tab called search. Click this then click on ‘ find ‘.

Step .4
Once you have clicked on find, you will get a mini screen similar to this. Fill it in EXACTLY like I have, for now it does not matter what item you want to change all we are doing is getting to the right part of media.pk2 .

Step .5
Ok once this is done it should put you at a certain point in media.pk2. Now here comes the tricky bit I will provide 2 .txt files both are of importance.

Link: This will contain 2 .txt files [ http://www.mytempdir.com/1312347 ]

Right here’s the tricky bit I will be showing how to change a +5 72 sword into a +9 72 sword. If you happen to have this lucky lucky if not just use common sense. Right now for the very hard part where a lot of people get stuck on. This code 3X 20 09 3Y will be filled in according to your item. Use the txt files to determine what the X and Y should be. others guides left it at this but I will show you what to look for. First open itemoption.exe
and look up your weapon.
My weapon a 72 sword was :
ITEM_CH_SWORD_07_C 4

A lvl 42 spear would be :
ITEM_CH_SPEAR_06_A 4

Get the picture? Right the purpose of this was to get the number at the end of your weapon, coincidentally they are both 4. Right first part over.
Now open itemtypenumber.txt. Look for the number you had, which would be in this case 4 and then what your CURRENT glow is, so my 2 numbers would be 4 and 5 seeing as my weapon is +5.

Indicated in the red line is my weapon info Notice the 4 and the 5 are the first 2 numbers? These 2 numbers are of importance.
Right Now we get that 3X 20 09 3Y back change X to the first number which in my case is 4 and then change Y to the second number which would be 5 [ X would be between 1 and 4 Y would be between 3 and 9 ]
So it will look like this now 34 20 09 35.

Step .6
Now go up to Search again and then find type your ‘ code ‘ which in my case is 34 20 09 35 in the search box as indicated in the picture below, then click on search. You should see this :

Step .7
After pressing done you will be at a different point in your media.pk2 again I’ll say if your doing a 72 sword +5 making it +9 everything should look somewhat the same. If you doing a spear obviously it will be different. Right now the blue arrow is where your cursor should be after pressing done. Whatever weapon you have somewhere after the cursor you should see 6 sets of X.XXX’s as shown in the red boxes ( X = number ) This is YOUR +3 / +5 / +7 / +9 weapon CURRENTLY.

What you don’t want is the same colour right …. so here I’ll give the codes.
+3 ~ 1.000,1.000,1.000 0.988,1.000,0.690
+5 ~ 0.996,0.173,0.510 0.902,0.122,0.761
+7 ~ 0.992,0.996,0.510 0.831,0.231,0.000
+9 ~ 0.388,0.502,0.890 0.094,0.580,0.380

Obviously if you want to be original you can randomize the numbers. If your familiar with RGB you can use those ie. 1.000,0.000,0.000 would be red.

If you have changed it successfully you can exit out it should prompt you to save. just save it. If you done that skip the next step.

Step .8
If you need to know how to change the values of the colours read carefully.

In this image mu cursor has the number 9 selected. I f you need to change it into a 0 simply press 0. Don’t go crazy here because to my knowledge there is no undo button.

Step .9
Right Now you have saved the file. The file if you have done exactly what I said so far should be in your My Documents file or whatever it’s called depending in your Windows Language. Now drag this to your desktop, and open your sro file. Drag the media.pk2 from your sro file into My documents if it prompts to overwrite re-read what I just said. Right now drag the media.pk2 that is on your desktop into your sro file.

And start sro up When you log in you should see if you have your weapon equipped immediate changes.

For kicks and giggles here’s my +5 spear now a +9 ^^

Hope this HELPS, the files you need to download are clean I spoke to a mod if I could post and they had given me the all clear.

Have fun guys, I will answer any questions you have about this
