packet collector command line :)

[astreyon]

hy all,

i have browsed all messages board, but i haven't found anywhere some documentation on how to use packet collector :)

especialy this question :

can i use packet collector to upload in a customized mysql DB ?

again i do not want to steal information, let me explain my goal please :

i'm currently working on a postnuke module i've called NGR
(Nifty Guild Roster).

my goal is to link icons from eqfiles with the information packed in the items DB of eqemu.

to build it i need some information:

- how is the items DB builded.
- how to decode the RAW BLOB.
- how to Extract icons from EQFiles.
- how to link Icons with the appropriate item of the DB.

thanks to whom can help me building my project :)

PacketCollector /? for command line options. I havn't used it because I don't have a live EQ account anymore.

For icons I guess use eqinside from the hackersquest site.

I believe the icon numbers are stored in the blob data.

The blob data is hexdecimal data, for what stuff represents, check the source code for the admin tool windcatcher wrote (delphi code) you can also check the code from showeq. both sources should have the info you need.
