some random newbie questions

[Faza]

also, where is the rez timer? is that a server setting or part of the spell? i want to shorten the amount of time a corpse can be rez'd to just 9 minutes

[corvanus]

well you can disable the nodrop in the variables table of your database

same for pvp

the other questions i gotta look into

[Faza]

i found that the list of GM commands does many things i didn't think GM's were capable of doing, like locking the server and changing nodrop flags

the GM commands (here on the wiki) let me do everything i asked about except the world building bit, and there's a whole other forum on that


thanks (nevermind) all!

still looking for a good kunark or velious interface - either one, so long as it's as close as possible to authentic

i was going to try to install the original velious expansion in a new directory and then find the files necessary -- anyone want to chime in and tell me that's impossible?


doesn't really matter, i can't find a solution to my issue in the other thread - can't move or walk around ingame

-setting all items to not be nodrop

well this one is simple one:

update items set nodrop=1 ;

[Faza]

right, thank you, i did learn strangely that in-game GM commands could do that

the part where i have no gravity and thus can't move (because i can't make contact with the world) is the thing that's totally driving me bananas

i got on IRC and was advised to switch from the angelox db over to PEQ's db and PEQ's quests (and PEQ's maps)

and did so, and everything seems perfect and stock and lovely - i will now begin customizing ^_^

woot!
