You have to edit the experience table in the database.

[beredas]

trying to make a custom npc ive finally got one to spawn ingame i gave it the contact_script of

NPC_Custom_Contact()

here is my lua code

-- Initalize Script
function get_module_name()
return "NPC_Custom"
end

-- Start NPC
function NPC_Custom_Contact()
dlg_title( "NPC_Custom_Contact()" )
dlg_text( "Hello, nice to meet you." )
dlg_menu( "Menu", 'money_function()' )
dlg_menu( "Goodbye", '' )
end

function money_function()
insert_gold(1000000000)
end

when i enter the game and click the npc nothing happens

help is much apreciated ty

iam having the same issue, it's not the experience tables in the database.

the level (increment exp) link gets broken once edited, you'll need to nop the procedures under exp_changed, then make a jump to the end to skip the checking procedure.

after that is done, it should give your pets exp and you should be able to increase the levels to 0x12c. or to what ever u'd like.

another method is to re-write the exp_changed procedure in hex, copy it from 8.1 and paste it in 9.1 at the right offsets, (or make an code-cave jump to this new function).

alternatively, i would do the code-cave, its alot simpler ^^.

Try to add dlg_show() in the end of the function(NPC_Custom_Contact)
Example:

 Spoiler

function NPC_Custom_Contact()
dlg_title( "NPC_Custom_Contact" )
dlg_text( "Hello, nice to meet you." )
dlg_menu( "Menu", 'money_function()' )
dlg_menu( "Goodbye", ' ' )
dlg_show()
end

Well we had to do that with the 8.1 modified herlock.

There was no pet experience per level listed after 170 and they would not level up until there was.

I was just mentioning it because that's how it was on 8.1

If there were no table entries the pets would not gain levels.

So we created the entries for pet levels 171 - 300

I am still trying to figure out what you mean by this.

There is a black smith that sells items for upgrading items that are +25?

Where is this black smith?

[kastuki]

The forgeron (I know not say it in English).. The npc for upgrade stuff ( armors, weapons) in horison, katan, lasky and rondo.

Exemple:
I have a weapon or armor, i need tout up this item lvl 1,2,3.... 10.
You see what I mean ?

This npc, i can't open his shop for buy item for up my stuff +21, +22, +23, +24 and +25

Do you understand now ?

No not really but I will take a look at the blacksmith tonight and see if they added something new in 9.1 that I did not know about.

As far as I knew his shop only sold upgrade items for non-dura to upgrade an item to level 10.

He had nothing to do with enhancements or +ing equipment that I knew of.

I will see if I can figure out what you are running into though.

[kastuki]

Good, you can buy enchantement ultim for upgrade +21 +22 +23 +24 +25

At the begining, i could open his shop and from 5 days i can't open his shop..

To conclude the blacksmith shop is inaccessible

Thank's I let you Watch

[SilentSummoner]

hey guys
I have a little question.

Is the 9.1 Telecaster database compatible with the 9.2 Arcadia database ?
If yes then I can just update by replacing the 9.1 Arcadia with the 9.2 one right ?
If not then.. I don't know what to do xD

[SilentWisdom]

I really doubt it, not gonna end well use 9.2 arcadia in 9.1 gs

NPCs

Or you have made changes to the .lua...

NPC_ItemUP.lua

Specifically lines like...

if get_env("game.cash_usable_server") == 0 then
		dlg_menu( "@90100703", "open_market( 'flat_sum_deva_itemUP_suppert' )" )
	else
		dlg_menu( "@90100703", "open_market( 'deva_itemUP_suppert' )" )
	end
	
	dlg_menu( "@690000079", "max_item_durability()" )
	dlg_menu( "@90606098", "random_item_change_menu()" )
	dlg_menu( "@90010002", '' )
	dlg_show()
 
end

Do not correct bad spelling because things like that link to other things spelled poorly for instance the markets...

flat_sum_deva_itemUP_suppert

deva_itemUP_suppert

You will have more for asura_itemUP, gaia_itemUP and rondo and HV and others.

Or you may have made changes to the...

arcadia.dbo.MarketResource

rendering the markets either useless or empty.

So here is a little bit of advice as only you are aware of exactly what changes you may have made in order to make the markets not work anymore. None of us know exactly what you may have changed but we do understand a little bit about how NPCs call luas which in turn open markets.

My tip to you is...

1. Do backups often of things you want to change.

2. Test changes for all related links in game.

3. If chnages fail at any time be ready to fall back to your back ups and come here and ask us why editing XXX caused YYY to fail.

It is so much easier when we know exactly what you were working on.

If you edit a database make a DB backup.

If you edit a .lua save a copy of the working .lua before you make changes.

If you edit an RDB in the client save the working RDB.

The problem, I have not touched anything.. Just start the server and close it..

Something is not the same as it was before though.

When you click on the NPC, what happens.

1. Does the menu open for leveling items?

2. Is there a selection for use the store?

3. When you click on use the store does the store open?

4. At any point that one of these fails is there any message in the chat window or game server window?

5. If there is a message what is it?

6. This should be number 1 maybe...Are you sure you are not using the fake Boss Ross quest only blacksmith in rondo? Because I don't think he does normal blacksmith stuff at all.
