Hello, folks,
I've been lurking the forums for a few days now, and working feverishly on my private server; and I've come up with several questions, which I will now proceed to dump all at once.
I don't expect anyone to help me with all of these, but I'd really appreciate any help that could be spared. Tutorials or brief instructions are best; but even answers like "This can be done in the MYSQL Database", or "This requires LUA scripting", or "This requires C++ coding" would be excellent.
I am running AC Web Repack 7.7, and my client version is 2.4.2 (874.
Here are my questions:
1. How do I make a character into a class that's not available to their race?
I've followed the steps in this guide:
MMOwned Forums.../ascent-guides/126724-guide-playing-any-class-any-race.html
But I still get "Login failed" on the client side, and "guid 2 level 1 class 9 race 4 levelinfo not found!" on the ascent-world.exe side (I'm trying to play a Night Elf Warlock).
My database didn't have a player_levelstats table, so I added one to both the ascent and logon databases; and when that didn't work, I tried renaming it player_levelinfo because the error message said levelinfo (that didn't work either).
How do I get to player_levelstats? Is it hard-coded for the AC Web Repack?
2. Can I switch a player's faction?
I've tried making a blood elf, and copying the reputation numbers from a night elf's row in the Logon:Characters table. Now, alliance guards won't fight her (and Blood Elf guards will kill her on sight, heheh), but alliance characters still show up with names in red and can't be talked to.
Interestingly, Alliance questgivers DO have gold question marks over their heads, which leads me to believe that she fulfills the reputation requirement for the quests; but because they're alliance and she's horde, she can't talk with them. They both have PVP tabards by their heads, so my server may be configured as a PVP server, but I'm not sure. Is there any way to enable a horde player to function like an alliance player?
3. Can I get the scripted bosses working better?
AC Web Repack 7.7 claims to have implemented Moon++, and there are definitely some scripts implemented- I tested it out in the Deadmines, and Mister Smite stunned me and walked over to his chest. But not everything worked; Van Cleef never sent his bodyguards to attack me, and never spawned the additional 2 bodyguards that he normally does. Also, the cannon that you use to get into the cove didn't fire. Would these things work if I compiled Moon++ myself, or is this just the state of the art, and I have to accept it or join the Moon++ team myself?
That's all for now. Thanks in advance!
