Make sure you're using the latest version. I fixed that bug a few minutes after seeing that myself.
Thanks

This kind of errors appear for more than one reason.
One of the reasons - if you have a table with fields that are "NOT NULL" but field has null values in it. (Other reason is a date/time field with all "0's".)

You mentioned it happens when you click on a column/field that = loottable_id, and crashes when there's no loottable_id there?

Then that must be a Null where it should'nt. I would check the table first.

I know with version 1129 of the emu, I had problems caused by the blocked spells table. For some reason I had null entries in it and it was working until I updated to 1129. After that, the zone it was being used in wouldn't even boot up. So, that might be one issue.

Another idea for any problems with GeorgeS tools is to make sure to run the register_ocx.bat after every update. Sometimes you need them and sometimes you don't, but it never hurts to run it anyway

Oh, and just finally noticed that it looks like GeorgeS signed up for dyndns No wonder I couldn't get to your old site :P

It looks like the links for downloads need to be updated to work with dyndns. I tried the link from your page to download the NPC Loot Editor and it tried to send me to your old IP again. I used the same link that it tried to send me to and I put the dyndns name in there and it worked for the download.

Another minor note: Apparently when you select ALL for slots on the new edit, it sets it for none.

Thanks for the report - New version should now support the proper Slot= "ALL" bit mask.

George, a small request.

With latest version of NPC Editor I noticed that 2 little buttons to add items into loot table have been moved all way to the right- and for some of us this is way outside of screen resolution area.

Coudl you perhaps move them in bewteen the 2 loot boxes? Or mayby on top of the loot box? Or perhaps make so I can use a Hot Key comob (like Alt+L) to simulate those buttons been pressed to add an item and Alt+R to remove selected item?

thank you much =)
