No rewards for quest turn-ins.

[NickW]

I can't seem to get quests to work correctly.. I went back through the guide and still no dice.

"If hailing an NPC works but when you hand them an item they do nothing, then you either missed the step where you must copy the contents of C:\EQ\EQEmuServer\quests\plugins into C:\EQ\EQEmuServer\plugins and/or you missed the step where you must copy the contents of C:\EQ\EQEmuServer\quests\lua_modules into C:\EQ\EQEmuServer\lua_modules"

That describes the problem I am having. But, I have triple checked both of those steps..





Any ideas?

Is lua51.dll in the server root folder?

Can you give an example quest/npc/zone? (some use Perl, some use Lua). Also, bear in mind that it is entirely possible for certain quests to be broken, even though the PEQ team are fastidious about such things.

I have lua51.dll in the EQEmuServer folder. As seen above.

The quests I have tried so far:

Turning in the note you start with doesn't work for any class. I give the correct person the note. They keep the note. I get no dialogue or items in return.

I tried a couple of quests in Cabilis. Scaled Curskins and Shestar's Scaled Coif. Same problem as above. I give them the quest items and no dialogue/reward.

In PoK I tried Randi's Floral Specimens. Same problem.

In Gfay with the Spiderling Silks quest I have the same problem. She takes the items. But, no dialogue/reward.

I tried Tunare Scout Daggers. Surprisingly, he doesn't keep the quest items. He gives them back. Still no reward.

I also tried Scouts Cape. She gives me the coin AND Kelynn in Crushbone accepts the coin/gives me the information. But, when I come back to turn in the information to Geeda. She gives me the information back w/ no dialogue/reward.

I tried the first few steps and the final turn-in for the SK and Druid 1.0 epics. I got the dialogue and reward for both. Seems like the epic quests work fine.

Willamina's Needles in PoK worked perfectly.

Bone Chips in Felwithe worked perfectly.

Orc Runner in Felwithe worked perfectly.

It seems completely random? Sometimes they just keep the quest items and I get nothing in return. Sometimes they give the quest items back. Sometimes the quests works as it should. Sometimes I get completion dialogue. Sometimes I don't..

Might be worth reporting these on the Project EQ forum (http://www.peqtgc.com/phpBB3/ you want the "Quest bugs" section). Geeda.pl is expecting the wrong item (although my copy of quests is not 100% up to date). Open up Geeda.pl in notepad, find and change this:-

if($itemcount{67702} == 1) {

to this:-

if($itemcount{12183} == 1) {

And it will then work (you will need to restart that zone or issue the reload quest command, which I have forgotten :P )

The command you forgot is #rq or #reloadpl, vsab.

Alternatively you can do #reloadworld, repops and refreshes quest.

I was able to fix every quest using that method. Thanx again for the great info vsab.

#reloadworld doesn't work even though I am a GM. The game doesn't even recognize #reloadpl.

Did you set your status high enough for the #reloadworld command? Also, it's #reloadquest, not #reloadpl.

I believe while following the guide I set it to 250. Is there some way to check an accounts status?

[Kingly_Krab]

If you have direct access to your database, you can check the 'status' column in the account table. My #reloadworld is set at 255 by default, so just set your status to 255 and you should be able to use it.

Setting my account to 255 worked like a charm. Thanx.

You're welcome.
