Find the entries for them in the dbo.NPCResource and set their local_flag to -1

I believe it is ItemUp

NPC_ItemUP_Asura_contact()
NPC_ItemUP_Beginner_contact()
NPC_ItemUP_Secroute_contact()
NPC_ItemUP_Gaia_contact()
NPC_ItemUP_Ancient_relic_contact()
NPC_ItemUP_Rondoh_contact()
NPC_ItemUP_Deva_contact()

Many things involved here.

1. Find the NPC in dbo.NPCResource

2. Check their column for contact_script because this will be referenced in the lua.

3. Read the lua file to find out what market in dbo.MarketResource they will open when you talk to them. (scripted as open_market)

4. Add your items to dbo.MarketResource under the same market name.

5. Set your pricing ratio in the colums provided in dbo.MarketResource

Perfect! Thank you! Sure wish that could get stickied....would save alot of repeated questions.

Names are in the dbo.StringResource both the dbo.StringResource and the db_string.rdb in the clients resources must match in order for a string resource edit to work.

Since you have asked for help on names and GM log in announcements I am going to make an assumption at one point and time you had your server running.

If you can not start it now make sure to check that all of your SQL services are started and running.

Use the SQL configuration manager to check the services status.

Hmm. They are all enabled

[ThunderNikk]

You have had it up and running correct?

You have not made changes to any of your ports, passwords, database owners?

If you have restored any of your databases you may need to restore database ownership.
