Please help, if you can.

I've just started playing about with 1.9 files. I got the files via this forum.

My problem is

When I make a new character, it starts with 1000000 gold even thought setup states 0,

Also the chars have a full set of cloths and loads of skill at level 3 right from the start.

How do I change this to start normally (No Items, No Gold, No Skills)

I've had a look at some posts, but as I don't what to look for (Files, Hexing etc) I didn't know where to look. Please help. All the files run fine, and I'd like to seriously develop a server. But chars starting with skills and stuff, is not what I want.

Thank you for any help.

What files did you d/load?

 

[2fast2furious]

i got same problem think i am using tash or the ipwnj00 ones

O leey think i can think off is it is not reading the !setup lol I do not no much but an it this what you get given at the start of the game HumanTryModeMaxGold=50000 or is TestGold=0 ?? I think its the HumanTryModeMaxGold=50000 an it?

 

[Tkonian]

I'm using the files with the password "iownj00"

Everything works fine - apart from I got LOADS of translating to do :whathuh:

If it was just the Gold issue, then yeah, I'd say it's the !setup file, but it's adding skills at level 3 as well. I will continue to look around, but I have no idea what to look for - so even if I find it, I might not know I have (If you know what I mean)

Thank you for the replies so far - any further help, will be greatly appreciated.

iv never heard of this problem come up befor.

are you making a fresh account and brand new character? or are you using existing accounts and character names that might have been used with the last file owner?

somewhere in your files you should find a file called idx.db, delete that. it will remove all your current accounts.

sorry if thats abit vage atm. its 10pm and i havnt used mir2 files in months for any referance sorry.

If you need anymore help just give me a shout.

I've made new chars. I deleted all the old logs, and idx files.

I've used 1.4 files quite a bit, and had problem with making chars in the past. So I knew about deleting the char db's from that.

So all the accounts and chars are made fresh.

It's quite odd - a level 1 Warrior will Fencing, Slaying, Thrusting, HalfMoon, ShoulderDash FlamingSword, FireBall, and HellFire ALL level 3 (Yes, Warriors' have GreatFireBall and HellFire - don't ask why, ask the guy that did the files)

May be its the M2server?

i dont think it is afink u gotta edit a setup.txt not to sure

 

[2fast2furious]

i think it's something in querst diary then common as thts where it was in the dsy files i think, i also have this problem wheres milo ><

i dont think it is afink u gotta edit a setup.txt not to sure

:needcoffe Unless I missed the area it's in - it isn't in the Setup file. that sets up things as per 1.4 files, as well as name colours (ie Pet Name colours as the level), EXP's needed, and stuff like that. Doesn't seem to have anything about skills and stuff.

But I noticed 2fast2furious mentioned the Quest files - I look in there when I get home from work.

Any further help, will be HUGELY Appreciated.

I think it has something to do with the npc script wich appears in the start. I dont know if you get wot i mean but on Foundation server there is a npc script so that every time you log on, there appears a npc script wich tells a little bit of the server. Maybe your's has it set up so that when it appears for the first time you log on it adds the gold and spells.

QManage.txt and/or the chinese text file located in QuestDiary/Common

 

[Tkonian]

Right, Thanks for the advice so far, it has helped NO END

I found a file called QManaga.txt in the MapQuest_Def folder, and moved it away. When I made a new char, he started with nothing - which is what I wanted.

Problem I have now, I get an ingame message about the QManage.txt file. So I need to edit it to suit my needs.

I found a bit that says

;==================================================
#IF
CHECKLEVELEX < 35
#ACT
SET [004] 0
;==================================================
#IF
CHECKLEVELEX > 34
#ACT
SET [004] 1
;==================================================

So I assume the SET [004] 1 is the bit that gives me the stuff when I login.
I have never been anygood at NPC's, so have no-idea what to do next.

I have looked aroud the but can't find what the SET is getting it's information from. Can someone please tell about this SET command and how to change it.

In the meantime I'll ";" mark that section, so should be a solution for now.

Thank you again, and look forward to advice on the SET issue.

NEVER MIND - FOUND IT!!!

Isn't it typical, you look and look and look and find nothing, then you ask for help, and it's first flipping thing you find :S

For those that have the same problem,

In the Qmanage.txt file in MapQuest_def folder, there was a reference to a file called ActLogin.txt in the QuestDiary/Common folder.

In the ActLogin.txt files - it was all listed in there. The ADDSKILL lines.

Thank you again for the help.

PS. Don't go too far away - since I'm new to NPC/Quest stuff, will need help again soon (I'm sure of it)
