NPC's Spawning w/ Weps in Hands

[So_1337]

Yeah. Don't ask me why, but melee is misspelled in the table, so that's just how it is.

k im havign a problem its not showing but im trying to figure it out on my own and experiment but im sick of having to shutdown the server by X'ing out the 3 command windows that start the server up and restarting them up again (start.bat, world.exe, zone.exe) whenever i update something in the database, is there a way for it to take affect right when i update the database? So i can just zone out or something and itll take affect?

It depends upon what you're updating. Some things will take, some things won't. You'll have to give some examples.

As for it not working, what weapon are you trying to have them hold? And is that a custom NPC you're assigning it to?

[nezmyth]

Greatstaff of the four winds .. and yep its a custom NPC, does that matter?

[So_1337]

Check the raw data on the Greatstaff of the Four Winds and scroll down to the 'idfile' for it. It's IT10507, and we'll drop the IT off it to get what we need:

UPDATE npc_types SET d_meele_texture1 = 10507 WHERE id = 580001;

Looks like you were using the first value, the Allakhazam item ID

See if that doesn't work for you.

Haha. The name's tongue-in-cheek, I'm nothing special =P Glad I could help though! I try and suck up all the knowledge I can find. I had a feeling that when Cavedude explained this to me, that it'd be handy to remember.
