[06/08 19:05:46] Unable to read script 'pkg/npcs/townfolk/merchants/menu.ecl

Take a copy of old un-messed-up menu.ecl in that folder (for example the test server should have this?) and replace this menu.ecl (after of course taking a backup copy of the bugged one as well) and then just trying to get the server to work ? Or am I just being ignorant here ?

1) copy the bugged townfolk/merchants/menu.ecl to folder c:\backupfiles\2009-summer\
2) find some old version of the same file, one that has not been modified by Ioo, and replace the menu.ecl file with this old version which should not be bugged at least
3) then, if changes are to be made, let Ioo check the "bugged" one later and get the shard up now
4) later when Ioo has fixed and tested the file, make a server restart with the new file

... or does it work that simply?

Akka I'm just a creepy guy who does sexuall comments, not evil =(.

I think Alty and CO have been doing well, they save the files (no bigger timewarps).
There have been like 1 time warp (only 3 minutes back in time) since they took over.

yes kind of you are, the server dosent tell you exactly where to look just that it is something to do with the npc , wich then takes you on a ride around the system.
This is what makes it had to find anything in the scribts , since there is no telling where the files are lying.
i have a good hunch where to look , but Ioo will know right away where it is.

When i was making the steed for the religions i had a folder where all the rites are in , then you have another file where it tells what the tomes are holding , the colour of the religions, and who is enemy of hwo.
then you have a speach rite scribt you all remember that dident work , that was a word that was with BIG Letter , then it moved from there to npc/wildanimals holysteed wich is another place , then from there to the finel list that keeps track on who has them and spawns them when the server restarts.

The biggist problem with pol is that it do not forgive anything , this is why the scribters hate it + they have to know where things are or spend hours looking for the things.
Problems for every one has allways been that repsak placed the scribt , not much chouse he had where to place them , but he knew where they where.
For those that trys to understand how it works.

Hm, if I got it right menu.ecl has "links" to other files, and it is not directly menu.ecl that has been modified, but it could be any file "linked" to this menu.ecl

runuo version of pang would be nice

[Alteran]

yes.

There will be a time warp to 10-06-09 17:00 when we get it up and running , since it crashed when neon restarted the server , to run updates this morning.
But still need Ioo to redu what he did.

I tried making my own shard with both POL and RunUO... I managed to even edit starting locations, spawn premade stuff, and something, but that was it =)

I started from Ocllo and spawned stuff there+edited the map by removing stuff from houses, even some orcs or so were spawned there for the valiant adventurer

[Alteran]

took us 6 mounth just to spawn brittian map , and we where Avanger,repsak , nos, richard , and we went on the test shard after 4 mounth.

It all the little things that take time and effort.
