Skills Issue... Please help

[Pdizzle]

I found one (maybe 2 posts) with the same problem in my searches, but they weren't answered. I simply installed akka's repack, updated it with his update, used his random loot tool, changed item information and different server rules. I didn't touch anything dealing with skills.

Also, my class_skills and skill_caps tables look fine. First time I've heard about export program. So, I looked into it, created an export folder and ran the export.exe... Still the same issue.

I'm clueless as to how I can fix this issue, and couldn't find anything in my searches. It's a bit of a game-breaker, too. Thanks for the replies!

What do you have your Max Level set to in your rules? If it is over 85, I have seen it cause the issue where GM Trainers only had the language skills you could train. Check that and reduce it to 85 if it is higher then check the trainers. I hope that helps.

IT WORKED!!!

You have no idea how happy you made me. So much relief... I've spent days (many many hours) trying to solve this issue.

Thank you!!! I'll go drink a beer in your name right now!

This is getting really strange, now. I ran some tests to try and figure my issue out. I grabbed a 2hb with a monk, manually set the double attack skill with a gm command all the way up to 400 and I didn't see a double attack. This leads me to believe that even if i manually set missing skills for players as a temporary work-around, it won't work.

So, I'm currently stuck with no work-around at all and skills that characters don't start with can't be obtained. Is it possible something went wrong when i installed Akka's repack? My skill tables seem fine, so I have no idea what else it can be.

Apparent facts:

1) skills don't show on trainers

2) skills that I bump with gm command do not level up

3) skills that chars don't start with and I bump with gm command do not work

As an example, the following is the code related to monk double attack:

class | skill_20
7 | 15

AND

skillID | class | level | cap
20 | 7 | 1 | 0
20 | 7 | 2 | 0
20 | 7 | 3 | 0
20 | 7 | 4 | 0
20 | 7 | 5 | 0
20 | 7 | 6 | 0
20 | 7 | 7 | 0
20 | 7 | 8 | 0
20 | 7 | 9 | 0
20 | 7 | 10 | 0
20 | 7 | 11 | 0
20 | 7 | 12 | 0
20 | 7 | 13 | 0
20 | 7 | 14 | 0
20 | 7 | 15 | 80

I apologize for the subpar tables above. I don't know the fancy way to paste the info. Based on the above tables, I would expect the monk class to be able to train double attack at level 15, and level it to rank 80. Does anyone know what I'm missing? Do I possibly have a corrupt install of the code behind the scenes?

Thanks again in advance for any responses! This is driving me nuts =).
