Default Merchant/Guard issues

I'll adress these one at a time.

1. For me merchants don't seem to have items, on my server or other pplz servers. I think this is a directory issue? Though I don't know.

2. Guards don't seem to protect people or attack the mobs on my server, they just stand there as an orc pawn rapes me up the #!@, think MJ paid em off. (JK, but its pissin my friends off, when they start a new character, they don't like running out of a zone to be saved to survive something stronger then them)

Any advice.

Thank you, I think I might have seen on involving the first issues already, a possible fix that is, but 2, I'm stumped!

I think it may have something to do with the database though. Used Cavedudes installer, not sure though. If its the database, how do I fix it.

W00T Cavedude is back, according to hez site.

#2 is a database thing, you have to set + factions and - faction then assign them to guards and mobs.. its a real pain in the backside

If you used the db provided with my installer, merchants and guards should work fine. Unless some of my code changes broke the binaries... Do you get any error messages when the server starts?

#1 is due to a bad EQUI_MerchantWnd.xml file (the live version isn't compatible with eqemu merchants), try to grab an older one and install it to your default UI directory.

#2 If you're running 0.6.0 dr2 or lower, you're pretty much out of luck. You need dr3+ to get guards working, and mobs assisting each other.
