Permanent affects are not part of the original stock package, and are
therefore
not included in my updated 128bit patch (assuming you used it). Anyways, the
big question is here, how did you set up your GET_OBJ_PERM macro, and,
do you want it to have 32 bits or 128bits? Let's go for the 128 bits, since
that's
the most logical I think. Let's grab the mob macro for 128bits:

#define MOB_FLAGGED(ch, flag) (IS_SET_AR(MOB_FLAGS(ch), (flag)))

and the stock should be something like this:

#define MOB_FLAGGED(ch) (IS_SET(MOB_FLAGS(ch)))

The 128bit patch actually cuts up the MOB array into 4 smaller pieces of 32
bytes. So, the prf_flags are saved like this (Just an example, not the real
db.c
code):

 if (sscanf(line, "%s %s %s %s", f1, f2, f3, f4) != 4) {
   log("error, blahblahblah");
 }
  MOB_FLAGS(mob_proto + i)[0] = asciiflag_conv(f1);
  MOB_FLAGS(mob_proto + i)[1] = asciiflag_conv(f2);
  MOB_FLAGS(mob_proto + i)[2] = asciiflag_conv(f3);
  MOB_FLAGS(mob_proto + i)[3] = asciiflag_conv(f4);

And the stock would be:

if (sscanf(line, "%s", f1) != 1) {
   log("error, blahblahblah");
 }

MOB_FLAGS(mob_proto + i) = asciiflag_conv(f1);

Now back to the error, it's the compilers way of telling you're confusing
the 32 bits stuff and the 128bits stuff.

Hope this helps, this should give you enough hints to fix your problem
(Correct
me if wrong)
