Custom Npc Not Spawning?! Will Rep

[Strupantwn]

I made a custom NPC using ADE, and made the entry id 28000, I then typed in
.reload creature_names
.reload creature_proto
Then typed in .npc spawn 28000
it said
Invalid Entry ID
I then restarted my Server, same thing happened,
I then tried to spawn the entry Id below me that came with NCDB from
http://www.mmowned.com/forums/emulat...ted-world.html
and it didn't work!
So I tried scrolling a bit down to around 26000 and it worked,
spawned fine?! HmmHMMH?!

Any idea whats causing this?
Will give a quick rep

Maybe ADE didn't save it? If I were you make a SQL of the npc and execute to the DB with sqlyog. That always work.

[Strupantwn]

No.. it's in the DB, I checked it twice, it's in the DB.
I said it in my thread that I went inside my table and tried the others also.

EDIT: thanks for the help anyways + rep your now a Contributor!

Requires a simple server restart.

[Nebels]

Makes sure your ids are correct, and do a simple server restart like 2d said.

[Strupantwn]

It didn't work also, is it my DB ?

In both proto and names it has it the entry ID

EDIT: Pics


The whole squred RED doesn't work till around 25999 range

hmmm, ive seen this happen before with certain repacks.
I had the same problem with Panex, never could fix it though.

As far as making the NPC and spawning it, I had the same exact problem, but I forgot how I fixed it. Try using heidi and taking the Code from ADE and entering it into heidi and then execute.

[Strupantwn]

Hmm doesn't work, might be core + DB issue? not sure wtf is going on,
might use the updated database scythe has, how do I update it without getting my
things erased?

Anyone would help, I will greatly appreciated, will rep you greatly and making something
out of photoshop for you =]

PM your AiM or MsN

Thanks

Happened to my server, all it required was a restart.

[Mr.Zunz]

This might sound really simple.. but.. do the entry in creature_names and creature_proto actually match?

[Gastricpenguin]

Did you try checking Storage.h ....? There IS a max entry for these things you know.

[latruwski]

also did you try other entryIDs?

[pt1994]

If your ids go over 200000 they dont work apparently

What is that? want to give me a little tut on changing the max entry? thanks

My entry ID is 28000 not 280000 and isn't that only for item? and I think my NCDB have that covered up already.

Maybe try change IDs in both creature tables, to something unused in the smaller, maybe it is just to high or something is bugged with those.
