After seeing some posts from Turmalin and Elssair gave me some motivation to look further in the scripts in the resource folder. I have tried on a few occasions to get Chaos Vortex running but failed.
Well here is what Resets/Initializes the database and starts the event. (code is in 02572.lua)
In game as GM type:
/gm ? pcall Lua_Zone2_WorldPE_Init
To check the event started you can be at the wishing well when you type that, and an NPC should spawn. Also the dbo.worldvar entries in the database for this will be reset.
1st Stage is Donating money, this takes a long time, but you can speed it up a few ways. Server offline just edit the dbo.worldvar entry for Zone2_WorldPE_Money_1, Zone2_WorldPE_Money_2, Zone2_WorldPE_Money_3. Totals must exceed 200,000,000 to trip the next stage. Or while in game try this macro:
/gm ? pcall WorldAC_Bless1(200000000)
2nd Stage is the portal just off to the side of Varanas Bridge, the idea here is kill the mobs, collect crystals and trade them to an npc close by. This stage becomes active after a scene near the wishing well completes. Complete this stage with this macro:
/gm ? pcall Lua_Zone2_WorldPE_PayCrystal(26000)
Then its a short wait till the next stage starts. (I did have to restart Zone2 once during my experimenting, if the zone colour doesn't change to dark purple or the next stage doesn't appear to start you may have to restart the zone as well)
There is a scene with NPCs talking at the wishing well and casting magic at the portal which does take a fair while so be patient, after that completes the portal to Chaos Vortex becomes Active.
Don't forget to open Zone194.
and Happy Killing.
