Mass Weapon Model and Spell Viewer ($val issue)

[freewind1]

So i been playing with this for a few days now and I'm trying to get this figured out, both the player and default script aren't working, by this i mean that the player.pl does nothing (tested it by using a "on zone in" script to shout so i know that my PL works and i didn't screw it up just the sub EVENT_TARGET_CHANGE isn't working.


As for the default.pl everything is working but the $val variable, by this i mean that it spawns npc's perfectly but no one gets equipped with weapons or spell effects.


Thanks you for your time!

P.S. i am using instance version 1

You really need to provide more information.

Sorry here is some more information

is a video of what happens in game

this is placed in my default.pl

# This function generates random strings of a given length

my $length_of_randomstring=shift;# the length of
# the random string to generate

my @chars=('a'..'z','A'..'Z','0'..'9','_');
my $random_string;
foreach (1..$length_of_randomstring)
{
# rand @chars will generate a random
# number between 0 and scalar @chars
$random_string.=$chars[rand @chars];
}
return $random_string;
