Hi, can i have different level caps for gms? so that normal players only can be 150 and gms can be 255?

[Power of Illuminati]

Yes you can.

In your Ascent-Optional.conf file you can find this line

<Optional    StartingLevel = "1"
             LevelCap = "70"
             GenLevelCap = "70">

By changing the area in green you set the normal players level cap

And by chaning the area in blue you change the GM ... or acctualy all level cap, but this can only be reached by .mod level <level>.

If you don't got the optional conf files (old revision) you can find something like this in the worldfile, it's called levelcap and Genlevelcap there too

Thx, +rep if it works ^^

Hello there all, I need some inside knowledge on how to give someone Database access as well as how to obtain the Scarab lord Title on a Emu-server, that has already has BC opened. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Aight before I go unnoticed, I done my fair share of helping now here it is again :P

Ehhh, sorry if this does seem a little pushy, but mah memebrs are crying. We also don't have the GM's to port everyoen around >_<

Now my problems need to be answered.


1) Okay. So no one can talk to the Battlemaster or Arena blokes.

The window doesn't pop up or anything and a sort of error code is output on the ascent-world.exe window.

(Sorry not enough posts to post links or images.. I'm sure you can add the extra '/' yourself. As if I need 3 )

There is probably already a fix for this but I couldn't find anything on it or it is jsut the simple fact that I may be on the wrong rev.

2) My teleporter NPC works fine for Alliance. It's great! I absolutly love it.

Then I started getting tickets from all the horde players saying that they can not talk to the teleporter. The teleporter is friendly for both alliance and horde. As I said before it works fien for alliance. On the other hand when a horde palyer clicks on the NPC the npc Window jsut doesn't open up. This is a real shame because I spent a S***load of tiem makign this NPC, gettign all the coords of about 50 different loactions.

This must be just a small problem. I have experimented by changing the npctype, flags and faction. NOTHING WORKS! If anything it will jsut break it for Alliance too.

Thanks for your time posters of MMOWNED :wave:

Hello everyone, I have my own server up and running and I've been spiffing it up on local before I make it public, but I'm having a few problems that perhaps someone could help me with?

First of all, I'm having a problem with some custom Game Objects, I've created a few, for my own purposes, such as a box for an auctioneer to stand on because I'm too lazy to find one, but whenever I restart my server (close out of all the things, MySql, Ascent, etc.) they are gone. Is there any way to fix this? Also, not closing my server is not possible, if I'm not playing on my server for a certain amount of time, it won't let me join the server, it stops me at connected when I try to log on.

EXAMPLE: I was playing on my server and wanted to grab some nachos and watch some TV, so I close outta WoW and go watch TV, I come back and it won't let me get on my server unless I restart all the stuff and that gets rid of the Game Objects! >.<

Okay, second thing, I have been searching for a good (noobish) Spell Template or Spell Maker for the past few days, and frankly, I haven't found anything at all. I really want to enhance my gameplay by adding new abilities, mostly for my GMs though, but how should I go about making the spells? If someone could point me to a template or a spell maker, I would be so thankful (no +Rep, I'm a leecher D=)

Lastly, when I began adding items to my database, only a few days ago, when everything else was set up, I noticed that all of my custom items, not just some, are question marks on my quick keys and inventory (not in vendors or while equipped however, bags just disappear when equipped) I have only tried using WoW-V, and the item maker in ADE, but that is because TBC Item Creater is too complicated for my small brain and SiPex only makes weapons. This is my biggest problem. Here are some reasons why:

For some reason, if I want to equip these items, I have to drag/drop them, a pain when trying to switch weapons in a PvP situation...

You cannot see their icons in your inventory and thus, will have to look around to find an item.

Etc....

Anyways, I've tried many things like, restarting the server, deleting Cache, WTF, Interface, etc. and so on. On another private server I play on, I noticed the same problem. Is this problem fixable? What IS this problem? Please help!

Also, is there any way to expand the max money cap? Just wondering

Thank you for reading and thank you in advance for any feedback!

First problem: Add a 1 after the ID of the object. Example

.go spawn 1337 1

That will perma spawn gameobject with ID 1337

Second problem: Gastric has a guide somewhere how to make custom spells, requires c++/core edit

Third problem: 2.4.x problem, can be fixed but it's complicated. Easy(not 100% working) fix is to download a clientside addon called Arkinventory

[Monarch]

Thanks, I'll download the mod for now and leave that as a tip for the others, anyways, I was just about to edit my post saying I found out about number 1, but thanks a lot for posting it too! As for number 2, well, I don't know C++ So I guess that's a failure.. =(

Thanks again for the help (+Rep inside, that's not where it counts, but who cares?)

[Yiddus]

Ahh what about me T_T :PI mreally lost here >_<

[Monarch]

lol, anyways, while I'm still here, how would you go about modifying one's starting points, I don't have Navicat (trial expired) and HeidiSQL dosen't work for me so all I have is ADE, what you tell me to put in Notepad and execute and that's it. lol.

[Power of Illuminati]

Define what you mean with starting points, doesn't realy getting that >.<
You mean like Str, sta and so? Or talent points?

Str, Sta, Spi, Agi and Int can be edited in playercreateinfo (table name). I think you will understand it pretty fast

Sorry for being unclear, I did mean where a player spawns after creation. I'll test this out!

Umm, how do I do this? I just tells me every time i try to Open a Connection it says:

Access Denied for root@localhost using (Password: YES)

Or something like that. All my information is correct soo....

[Power of Illuminati]

The player spawn can be found in the same table as I told in the other post, just change the cords in the table.

[Monarch]

lol, Posted above :P I'm havin' problems >.<

EDIT: yeahh,

[SectorSeven]

Edit in the playercreateinfo table in your database.
