The awsome mercs..again
 

so i just recompiled server got it up and running
tested server worked fine

then i decided i wanted mercs and followed this http://wiki.eqemulator.org/p?Enabling_Mercenaries

when i hail NPC's in game nothing happens... i can hail other npcs and they work fine i hailed merc npc and hit #questerrors and it responds with current quest errors:

nothing after: so im guessing thats fine mercs are enabled in database (see below)


3 Mercs:AllowMercs true
2 Mercs:AllowMercs true Turns mercs on for the server - will not load merc data if set to false.
1 Mercs:AllowMercs true Turns mercs on for the server - will not load merc data if set to false.
10 Mercs:AllowMercs true
4 Mercs:AllowMercs true Turns mercs on for the server - will not load merc data if set to false.

any ideas pwease ?

Fixed it

Hey, are you able to help me out at all? I'm a huge noob, playing around with my own server, and mercs are the only thing that I can't seem to get working.

I've just been following guides, so could you explain to me how you sourced the text there? I only know how to source the sql files.

Or if anyone else is able to help, that would be awesome.

Whenever I try and source the mercs.sql I keep getting 16 errors. I've tried deleting all the merc tables and rules from the database, and started a fresh compile and a new database. Same issue :-x

Everything else works fine, I've even got bots running. Just can't seem to figure out this merc situation..

Thanks in advance! :smile:

Kilst

I am having the exact same issue.

In regards to getting the above query sourced, open your database gui (I use Heidi - it seems Navicat is the perennial favorite) and enter it into a query and run it.

I did so, but they are still not functioning. The merc vendors are there. Nothing happens when I right click them. Might give it a try, though. You may have sourced your initial .sql files differently than I.

Oh okay cool, yeah I'm using Navicat. Seems easy enough now. Really appreciate that.

Though, I just realised that I'm running the titanium client :oops:
Almost finished downloading a UF client. Fingers crossed!

Still no go. Guess I'll try and source it and see how that goes.

Update: Sourcing all that has given me a window when right-clicking a liaison.
New problem: all thats in there is "Unknown DB String 6120105-22", "Unknown DB String 6120106-22", "Unknown DB String 6120107-22" etc etc.. Under sub-type.
I'm able to summon a merc if I click hire though.

Edit: With a little more playing around, everything seems to work fine except for the naming of the merc class, the apprentice/journeyman naming, and the upkeep cost. Mercs work fine as far as I can tell, just summoned and dismissed all the classes. Cleric buffed fine.

Edit2: Found out I need to change the dbstr_us.txt for UF. All good now, names are working perfectly. Nothing has an upkeep cost, but I'm sure I can work that one out now. Thanks for the help :D

It means the text is missing from your dbstr_us file you can get what they are supposed to be from a live client if need be :)

Hah, should have refreshed the page before editing, but I found that info quick enough anyway. Cheers!
