Can't Attack Or Talk To NPC

Post by Vlera » Tue Jul 07, 2015 2:13 pm

Hey Everyone! back with another discovered issue.

Recently our private server had players update to the latest Retail patch as of last Thursday. A big problem arose since, in this case players are unable to talk to NPC's or attack anything. Upon inspecting a reset we've come across that any errors showing up in the game servers box itself reveals that GoV/FoV are showcasing errors in both Zone/NPC. We're unsure if this specifically is what's causing the issue, but we've attempted the following.

"right click root DSP folder -> SVN Update

rebuild game server (the other two almost never change) in visual studio - F7 is your frieeend

rerun .sql files in navicat only if they've changed since last time you ran them - it helps to sort by date (and be careful with accounts or char tables, as they'll wipe everything they have)"

-This step was taken from a different post in the forums.

Any help on this situation would be greatly appreciated! If anyone needs any other detailed information please just say so!

I want to say this was fixed. Had something to do with npc id being changed during the retail update. Are you sure you're updating your server files using merge or pull?

SVN isn't going to update your server. We haven't used SVN for over a year now.

You can't talk/attack because your server isn't updated - you have to use git for that

You really should read through this so you can figure out where you are going wrong: https://wiki.dspt.info/index.php/Building_the_Server
