Mysql5

[soulshot]

So are the new builds all compatible with mysql5? Should we all be upgrading to mysql5 to stay compatible? Thanks again.

no and no.

[Angelox]

no and no.

alter table account DROP packencrypt;
alter table character_ change extprofile extprofile blob NULL;
alter table player_corpses change data data blob NULL;
alter table player_corpses_backup change data data blob NULL;

Does this go for MySql4x also?

yes, the hope is that the database and all changelog queries to it will continue to support all mysql versions used. It will be very clear if this changes in the future.
