eqemu merchants question
 

How do iI change where it says < eqemu merchant > under the merchants names ?? I have done a search and cant find answer

Theres a last name field in the NPC Db. Change that to whatever you want it to say.

Umm yeah and one thing he forgot to mention is that you have to change it for EVERY merchant(i think O.o)

You will have to edit source to change Merchant/Banker names.

If you just dont want a last name at all just type in

UPDATE npc_types SET lastname=NULL;

EDIT: Actualy you gota go into the code too hehe forgot its hardcoded into the source do a search for class=41 or something like that and you should find what it puts for all merchants.

Exactly where would i do a search for class=41 ?? . In what file ?

look in mob.cpp

Ok , that means I have to know how to do compiling , which i dont lol . I am assuming there is no way to do it with MYSQLFront then ?

I am trying to learn VB so strap yourselfs in cause i may blow something up lol . Oh and thanks alot for the responses , much appriciated :)

you can try the lastname field in the npc_types table.. not sure if it will work for ya or not

Tried that and it doesnt seem to work , is weird too cause if I put a last name in there it does not show up but when I do #showstats on the npc it shows the last name i put in , well guess i will have to stick with how they are for now , thanks

Does your server say using old DB format for NPCs when it loads up? IIf so you have to add the AC column so that it will use the new format and read the lastnames.

Have you tried this??
