I have advertising 3 already. I know about the customizing feature. How do I make it say, Hello, "Targeted Player's First Name"?

It does so automatically. No need to do anything, the NPC vendor will use whatever name of any approuching player and insert it into the text.

Y'all don't get his question.
If you use the *default* messages, it inserts the player name. If you use a *custom* message, he wants to know how you do the same thing.
I know that the variable is %NT, but I don't know if it works. I tried using %RT to put the target's race in there (since it's implausible that the vendor would know the character's actual name) and couldn't get it to work.

I feel your pain. It doesn't work. Or at it's not supposed to. Either way, it can't be done.

Yes, by turning it off.
Sorry, you have to live with the fact the your vendors are so stupid, they do not know their own boss.

What is the command to use in ad barking which lets your vendor greet people by name. I thought it was %NTT but that isn't working, or I need to do something else. Any help is appreciated.
