well, i am trying to make some tests in my eAthena TMW test server, but i can´t go above the id 199, is any limitation about this ? Any time i put a id above 199 the npc is don´t showed.

If have this limitation, is possible to put more than 100 npcs in any way ( ids 100 to 199 ) in eAthena server ?


Thanks for the Attention

eAthena supports NPCs from 100 to 999. The limitation you're running into is in the TMW client, which assumes that NPCs are from 100 to 199.

I *think* (but haven't tested) that you can change this limit with some simple edits to the client sources - File "src/beingmanager.cpp", lines 78 and 86, just change the "200" to "1000".

And what were the results of your tests? If NPC IDs can be higher than that, we should probably change that in our client.

sorry, i past some times with other things and forgot this for while ... well, i try change these options in the code, and it´s the same, i can´t use more than 100-199 ids, the npcs don´t appear with ids highter than 199. It´s any chance to solve this before the next release comes ?

My data : eathena latest git version, windows Xp SP3

Thanks ...

We can have the next release allow more (which I think eAthena does support), but older releases will still have the limit.

It´s very dificult to change this limitation ? if it´s not, you can share to us until the next release ?

And i think this type of thing it´s better limitless, or a really great limit. 100 npcs are to small to any game, and very smaller to a mmorpg.

They weren't expecting to stay with eAthena this long.
