WildcardX, I don't have the SQL files in front of me, but is it true that some tables are InnoDB already, and some are still MyISAM in the current PEQ database? If so, how is that determined, or is it just "guessed" by the server depending on the table you are creating? I've never quite grasped that (I tend to favor MS SQL myself
).
As I posted on PEQ, I am all for staying modern, especially since the alleged "supported" DB is no longer available from it's creators. Many have reported problems with MySQL 5.0, but many have also answered with solutions. I think it's time for the community to move forward with this.
It would be imperative that the devs acknowledge that using a newer DB will not out-and-out break the Emu. It's not likely, since SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE are pretty rudimentary. But you never know... data types and all. For instance, some older MySQLs do not support comments. ~twirls finger~ who cares about that tho.
