export_client_files.exe custom database
 

I have a custom database name for my server. Any advice how to change the export_client_files executable to point to my new database?

That executable looks at the database name from your server config file.

Hmmm, Yeah that makes a lot of sense.

Well when I run the executable, my dbstr_us.txt file only contains this

"Major^Minor^String(New)"


And I'm not sure what BaseData does either, if someone could shed a light.

Look in your db_str table in the database, if it's empty, then you could import the dbstr_us.txt
file from your client. Just put the db_str file into import folder and use the import_clent_files
executable. Look
at base_data table in database. If you make changes in there, export it, then player puts it in
Resources folder in their EQ client.

Basedata controls some stat calcs

Dbstr table is unpopulated by default. You have to import your dbstr_us.txt to be able to export one.
