3 Server Q's

arcticangel · #1 04-23-2006, 04:32 AM

first, i was wondering how to change my server name from "DBM says change me!" i tried going to my eqemu folder and in config.xml but it still pops on as the default name, would u suggest anything?

second, I've looked around and i still havent found out how to give myself full gm controll over the server. I tried putting the command line "FULL ACCESS TO ACCOUNT ...." whatever into mysql but it still hasnt done anything, what should i do?

then last but not least is there a was of making graphic files, server side?? as in if i were to change a zone to a UT zone and then make it public so the emu community could access it?

any and all responses will be greatly appriciated. thx for ur time !

To flag yourself as a GM. Go to Start->Run and type in cmd <enter>
now type in cd\mysql\bin <hit enter>
mysql -u root <enter>
Update account set status=250 where name='your account name';

Where can you find information on what the different STATUS settings are?

Another way to grant full admin access to yourself is to go into the command prompt and:

1) change directory to your eqemu folder
2) type in: path\eqemu\world.exe flag accountname 255

Where path is the path to your eqemu folder and accountname is the account you want flagged. If you are already logged in when you do this you'll have to use the #flag command to update your gm flag before using any other commands.

As for the first problem with the name of your server...

Are you opening the eqemuconfig.xml file and editing the long and short names? If so, did you restart your server since saving the new xml file? If you did, then you shouldn't be having a problem. I am assuming you used cavedude's release and meant "DRP says change me!" in which case you might want to take a look at the documentation that Cavedude supplied with his release. It can be accessed from the start menu folder created by the installer. He has a very good tutorial about installation and changing the name of your server. Make sure you followed it exactly and you should be good to go.
