Bel your a butt lol at least I have the phpadmin linked to a web db. Thats pretty good for a noob lol
J/K bro.
But on a serious note I already found those files in the eq folder took them out and lava is back to normal and the mobs are now red gobbies again yeah!!! Sarepean thanks for the tutorial bro but I already tried all that and they still came out in podisease as humans. However I am trying to figure out from either the db or from ingame how I can use the #race and then make it permanent for that mob I choose.
IE.
If I make a ratman_warrior lvl 47 it was popping as a human with all the stats of a human. This is from in game by the way not from the db. It is already set up to the base creature itself. Now when I do a #race 268 it changes into the ratman with a blue cape (you all probably already know this lol). But I want to make it a permanent change. When I attempted the #permarace thing for podisease it said it was doing it properly however it didnt change it in the db.
Not sure how to do that. But I also noticed that using this tutorial doesnt quite work all that well for me globally. I am wondering if I have to change something in the global file under eq?
HTML Code:
Ok, now we have individual zone model forceloading working. Lets move over to making these same models load over every zone without having a zonename_chr.txt for every zone. Open the Nexus_chr.txt file you just made, then click "file" on wordpad or notepad, then click "save as" and save the file as gequip2_chr.txt.
gequip2_chr.s3d is a globally loaded file and since it is read the same way zones are read, it also searches for a _chr.txt file to load new models so then it loads over every zone.
NOTE: This is only client side, so if you wish to have everyone on your server to see these models, they "must" have these files or they will not see what you are seeing with new models.
This is a great tutorial however when I made the 406 model gequip2_chr.txt and placed all the mobs that I could find on the web section of spawn creation and found my own in the sony/eq sub folder. This is suppose to force load over all zones the mobs I chose out of the 406. When I go into the game I can change into a select few things however in each zone (and I understand why this is to disciminate between them) they are different char types that I can create. But if I wanted to make a diseased lioness up in podisease as a lvl 52 char I cannot figure that part out yet....
I hope this clears up alot of my problems and I hope you all can help me out thanks so much again. By the way the guide books are all broken and I cannot get a copy to look at so I am kinda stuck without knowing what is what as far as #'s and character mobs go. :(
LOL I just found this on a post from like 2003 or something like that when they started that guide book info from Mattmeck and Magicks post I didnt realize that the book was that important to have. If anyone has a copy would you please pm me and let me know that you can send it to my email thanks......

What makes it really, really interesting is that some races have different male, female and neutral models - in addition to the texture/material options What is that? like 400 x 36 x 3 ? 43,200 potential options for EACH zone if that's true. *boggle*
