(This is a guide for people upgrading from 6.0DR2 to 6.1DR1)
First of all, you will need to have a compiled 6.1DR1 from the CVS. (Sunday, May 08, 2005)
Projecteq.net is down currently, but you will need their Velious database release.
EDIT:: There are some incompatibilities column wise with the kunark database. Until I figure out exactly what they are and how to resolve them, you will have to go with the velious database. Sorry.
1. In the mysql command line, type source load_system.sql and wait for that to finish.
2. Now source load_empty_users.sql and wait for that.
Okay, now most of the hard stuff is done. Here is where it gets a little strange because this is what I did and it may not exactly be right.
Now, get these files:
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.p...rt.sql?rev=1.2
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.p...ems.pl?rev=1.2
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.p...ql?rev=1.1.2.1
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.p...FG.SQL?rev=1.2
http://eqitems.13th-floor.org/download/items.zip
type these exactly:
source items-0.6.0-DR2-0.6.1-DR1-convert.sql;
source 0.6.1-upgrade.sql
source ZONECFG.SQL
delete from items;
This is where it gets a little weird. I did this for Windows XP and the way I did it is a little hazy.
Go to Start -> Run --- ppm
install dbi
install dbd-mysql
Now, from command prompt in the same directory as the loading script from earlier (should also have the item.txt file unzipped in the directory)
perl load_13thfloor_items.pl -d db -u user -p password <items.txt
And that should do it.
If there are any problems, drop a message.
