Mishaps after LJN use [Archive] - ForumsHQ

[Mythic]

Okay, my sysop decided to fook with LJN to fix the shops regen problems following the instructions in Chronics post. *Now after he's done that all the attack messages have changed. *I really dont think that was him doing that. *So for example: *Darkbane; *pre LJN

You critically slice and dice rabid monkey for 238 damage!

Post LJN:

You critically attack rabid monkey for 238 damage!

Any ideas on what caused this? *I haven't seen attack messages like that in ages.

Btw rabid monkey was the first thing to come to mind.

Just a follow up note as well - For some reason everything listed in shops throughout the realm is now listed in copper. For example, if it normally lists as 100 gold to buy a fine broadsword, it now costs 100 copper, or the white gang house, which was formerly 100 runic, how costs 100 copper.

?!?!?!?!

true.

Would a re-installation of mud fix this problem? Of course we'd be backing up all the pertinent files so we don't lose billions of exp in the process.

just to confirm -- this does in fact happen. *I did this tonight and i got the same results. *the DB did get created (had to have a empty file there first), and the edits did stay after the update finished ... but I also had the attack messages and copper in shops (i luckily made a backup before I did it though ).

so you CANNOT us LJN to make an update file for mod9

p.s. the order i did it in: delete update file, make edits, create update file, run offline db recovery, launch board

(and yes I posted this in another thread too)

I used it to create an update database with 1.11g earlier today. Made the database perfectly... however it did wipe out the user database.
