Default Custom query

Well, I'm used to just diving head first into software and figuring out how to do it later. I started using GeorgeS Diablo II random loot program (great program btw) for implementing loot on my custom server about a week ago. I didn't bother to read the directions, and added loot to the tables. I was frustrated when I didn't get the results I was hoping for, and there were lower level mobs dropping level 75 loot.

After actually reading the help files and doing a little research, I figured out how to use the custom query tool that is built into the program, and I am now working on getting proper loot for appropriate leveled mobs using the program. It is simple enough... All you have to do is enter criteria for what you want to be edited into the tables. If you put "reqlevel<=10 AND an ac<=6". then a level requirement and an AC cutoff is made to distinguish those items.

I am doing all of the loots over again now, and hopefully it will be a lot better, and players will have gear to prepare them for the next level.
