man sounds like your screwed :(

Do'h that doesnt look so good

come to find out lights work on every server BUT Classic for me hehe

hmm, I'm not having any of the problems most of you are having except with the scripts, putexplosion doesnt seem to work, one npc I had to take offline because it went crazy and developed a mind of its own, and some other script problems also...looks like I have to go through and change scripts yet again...*sigh*
But I guess it is all worth it if this new exe is as great as I am told it is

It is. It really is.

I swear people. My computer isn't old or new,
(GeForce 2
1.2 Ghz
Athlon AMD Micron)
but I know it's not hard.

I just installed everything adn it worked fine. Remember, do not press the "Delete all my ****e" button, and everything works fine.

Leik OMG Jebus... wtf happened to my graal? Ive reinstalled it twice ALL packs!

Now I cant EVEN ACCESS gral because im getting that GetINputBaseDll problem, and yes I have the version released on the 15th

The halo is the newbie protection you should get from Sister Gertrude. As soon as your AP drop it will go away...forever.
Let me guess...they are displayed as chests?
I don't know why it is bugged (nobody touched the level the last month), but I'll rescript it.
Stefan thought it would be cool to disable the setlevel command. Now 50-100 scripts on Classic don't work anymore. One of them is the Zorbi Ring.
Should be fixed already...
Ok, here's the deal why many weapons don't work (including the system NPC which refills your MP):
Stefan optimised the scripting engine, so the weapon scripts don't get events/won't be loaded until something was triggered.
But the bow/bomb are constantly using timeouts which are initialized in if(playerenters) and something seems to be bugged there.

=> The new version nearly destroyed Classic.

Hate to say it, but you guys should convert to NPC Server.

Get a private server, and fix the levels one by one.

That would require three things.
1) An NPCServer. Unixmad said we'd be getting one sometime this week, but that assumes he remembers to pass the message on to Stefan.
2) A scripter who knows NPCServer that well. Miraculously, Com013's teaching himself the ropes.
3) Time. We don't have any and we're not likely to get any. While the most active (I might say the only active) LAT is working on the NPCServ version, Classic's gonna rot like this.

Okay, most of the NPC weapon bugs were due to the fact that they were not properly scripted.
I fixed:

• System (for your mp)
• Bomb
• Bow
• Zorbi Ring
• Perma Clothes (needed to be redone completly. If your stored clothes are messed up, delete the PermaClothes and get them again. Don't worry, you don't need to pay a second time).
• Hammer
• Fishing rod

I'll look at the shovel later.

The setlevel command is a huge problem...

They were misscripted?

Man. I scripted, like, all of those personally. Oops.

I hereby offer my services in helping convert the NPCs for the NPC server. I have NPC server experience with Providence and Graal2001, and I could help you get your conversion done quicker than with just one person figuring it out as he goes. If you want a sample of my work, forum PM me or AIM flee the nutter

NPC server = a good thing, believe you me. The ability to reliably store data alone is worth the time taken to update the npcs.

For 6000 levels? =_=

Granted, I estimate 2000 of them are just play ___.mid and setbackpal, but still.

Com, if you want the help go ahead and draft him...I'm stayin' outta it for now. ^_^

They used

NPC Code:

---

if (this.init == 0) {

  this.init = 1;

  //...

}

---

instead of

NPC Code:

---

if (created) {

  // ...

}

---

The problem of the Zorbi Ring was simply setlevel.

The PermaClothes...er...completly bugged. I couldn't find the problem. Redid them.
Just guess what my converter will be doing?
The timeouts are the hugest problem for autoconverting. I wanted to do this:

NPC Code:

---

if (timeout) {

  // ...

  timeout = 0.05;

}

---

would be converted to

NPC Code:

---

if (timeout) {

  for (c13sct=0; c13sct<2; c13sct++) {

    //...

  }

  timeout = 0.1;

}

---

But:

• that wouldn't work on NPCs which are using more than one value for the timeouts. (Just place the default NPC and set respawn).
• And it would be very hard to do anyway.

I thought we weren't allowed to give levels/level access to non-LATs? Do we have to hire him first? I could ask Loriel, too...
I will remember Jeff when we get the server and the levels got through the first conversion step.
