I am sorry if this has already been covered before, but I just got Advertising IV, where according tlo the Star Wars Book, I can place an NPC to "advertise" my store for me.

But it does not say how to aquire this NPC, nor does it say what restrictions it has, as far as placement goes.

If anybody can help me figure out how to onbtain this npc advertiser and where it can be placed,please advise me.

Thanks.

The "NPC" is just a vendor like any other. Go to one of your existing vendors and manage it.. seledt "Register Vendor" this will allow you to register it on the map under one of the categories.

Really, all Advertising IV does for you, is reduce the cost of using Advertising I - III.

The following link has some ideas for how to beef up advertising and other merchant skills.

So, let me get this straight: To advance my character, I have to give up my current abilities?

Penguin-X is correct. The feature of hiring wandering NPCs to bark ads was removed. And to be honest, so much has changed that the Star Wars Galaxies usermanual and any guides are more usefull as a place to place your coffee cup on to prevent rings on your desk.

I never found the Prima Guide all that useful anyway. Nothing in it that isn't in the game or on the boards except for skill trainer locations, which is the only thing I look up in it.

I totally mis-read this post when I replied. Yea that feature as far as I know never made it to the beta servers..it was described..and dropped before we ever saw it. Unless JTAlpha saw it. I never did see that feature actually implemented.

Nah. Never looked for it though. Hadn't looked at merchant then. Was testing smuggler.

I was testing Merchant in beta but I never got AD IV. But my memory was that the description got changed to the Adbarking thing..there was a lot of discussion about the spam factor of it and it never got implemented and got replaced with the discount for global advertising.
