I had this problem as well. From what I have been told, if u log out and then back in again a coupla (hundred) times, eventually he will talk to you.

It's to do with the size of the script. When you first talk to the NPC it downloads the script but since that one is so big it can actually time out while downloading, leading to a blank conversation bar. I think the only way to fix the problem is to relog and try again.

But imagine having one 'so big' that it 'times out' while 'downloading'... 8|
Oh, I really shouldn't post anything at this time of night. :lol:

Heres a tip that may help.

I noticed this bug on pluto, I relogged and tried again,several times, but same error, then I used task manager and noticed additional instances of neocron.exe still active in memory somehow.

So the fix is as follows: (in windows 98 at least)

Reboot PC:

Launch neocron and visit npc.

Then after you speak to the npc, and it is bugged, exit neocron and check task manager for any running neocrons, kill them all, then restart neocron and speak to the npc and it works :)



IMO somehow when you first speak to the npc it bugs the client, and then requires either a reboot , or taskmanager activity to fully kill the bugged client before you can then rerun neocron, log in to the zone and activate the npc successfully.

edit: probably why some ppl are more effected than others is to do with whatever OS is running, with some OS relogging is enough, with others you may need reboots etc...

well on Saturn the guy hasn't actually been there for the last 4 hours, is this another bug or has some thoughtless twats killed the NPC and it hasn't respawned?

If it's the one in the wastes he seems to be a very unlucky chap. In the first few days he was there I saw him ganked 3 times by plonkers and once by the Crahn guards.O_o
