Nightmare v0.96 rev 77..... [Archive] - ForumsHQ

[paragon]

Hey, just wondering if this version of nightmare can compile updates.... or if its just for viewing?. I just wanted to multiply monster experience by 4... and i'm running mod 8. I don't want to upgrade yet.

I dont think it does.....Whats the address to ur bbs?

the old nightmare will allow you to multiply the monster expierience, but it doesn't compile an update file. that was something i added. LJN does though, so you could use the two in combination to get what you want.

unfortunately, the bbs is private for now... i've got some limits on my bandwidth, which I already meet every month.. and an extra 1k/s for 24 hours a day would push me over... =/

Perhaps I'll open it up later on though.





And when I try to compile an update db with LJN, it gives me a BTRIEVE INSERT ERROR 22 ON FILE "wccupda2.dat"

If I move that file, LJN won't create the update file, so it obviously has to edit an existing DB...

I've now also tried upgrading to majormud v1.11i, and when I run WG now, it gives me a btrieve error 22 on wccupda2.dat aswell.



Any ideas anyone?

Well, I upgraded to 1.11h instead, and then added mod 9, and I can now edit with the new Nightmare just fine. Perfect!

Me again.. heh

I've been playing around a tiny bit with NMR... but now everytime i divide monster exp by something, almost all of them go to 1 now.

The monsters experience have been multipled to be at 80x the original.... (I was just playing around with things.. wasn't planning on leaving it like that at all) If I divide it by 16, eveyrthing goes to 1 exp... any ideas why this might be happening? It shouldn't be setting the minimum in any case there...





EDIT

-------

I'm stupid.... [sigh] I was still using 0.6.1... works now.

I'll start testing/looking at things now before I come here for help.
