Hello, NOOB here,
How do I "12) Execute this into your Char DB:" ?
Pretty sure you click to select the MOP_Characters table on the left, then execute the SQL queries by clicking the blue play button and running.

Hi,

i was asking myself, why don`t just create a new world.db. Therefor u only have to do the Dump & Import once.
In the worldserver.conf, you can simply change the world db connection like:


# Default: "127.0.0.1;3306;root;ascent;emucoach_v12_vip_auth" - (LoginDatabaseInfo)
# "127.0.0.1;3306;root;ascent;emucoach_v12_vip_world" - (WorldDatabaseInfo)
# "127.0.0.1;3306;root;ascent;emucoach_v12_vip_char" - (CharacterDatabaseInfo)

LoginDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;ascent;emucoach_v12_vip_auth"
WorldDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;ascent;emucoach_v17_vip_world" <-- simply edit the world db connection string
CharacterDatabaseInfo = "127.0.0.1;3306;root;ascent;emucoach_v12_vip_char"

In the DB Tool, you will then have both worlds. The new and the old version ~ my 2 cent

looking at the auth-db scripts, there are certain changes made to the structure, so you'll need to apply these as well.
BUT i'd rather dump to a file, instead create a new named DB and export directly to this. the steps for the scripts will remain the same of course.
