View Full Version : Tracking Skill not working

Hello,

I've completed a 5.1 server using TCS MW_051_052_alpha1.

I had to replace the Zone.exe with an updated version I found in the forums to get spells working.

Now I find that tracking does not work on Ranger, Druid or Bard characters.

Is the tracking function tied to the Zone.exe? Or is it, perhaps, a function of the database?

It seems I had it working in one of my other server databases with the same TCS database version, so I'm inclined to think it's tied to the Zone.exe executable.

I just did a search in the forums and it doesn't look like anyone has reported this issue.

Any insight?

Thanks, in advance.

Arley

Sorry, I should have clarified the "tracking doesn't work" in my previous post. I'm using a ranger to test this because he will have the "distance" tracking option.

The tracking window appears but it does not populate with mobs in the zone. I have not checked every zone, but the 20+ zones I have checked, common zones, have the same results.

Thanks,
Arley

i have had this problem too (although i'm just playing on a server, so i'm not a GM). I noticed that when playing on semi-legit servers and setting the skill to 252, tracking works fine 8) . but when starting from scratch on a legit server, i get the same problem. there are no NPC/PC's that appear in the window that pops up, and there is no way for me to raise that skill's level (ie ranger GM).

EDIT: I have also noticed the same thing with taunt. in legit servers, i am unable to level the skill, but in semi-legit servers when i set the skill level to 252 it seemsl to work fine.
