faction editing

[sfisque]

the time has come for me to fix factions on my server, and i'm foreseeing a huge time sink.

basically, is there a tool, other than the PHP tool that i saw linked in the forums, that would help automate setting up factions. having 90% of the mobs run around indifferent isnt going to challenge my players much and i dont want to spend monthes doing it manually.

worse case, i'll craft something in java and release it for general consumption.

You can sort by table id (sorts by zone depending on your db) and multi select mobs and assign a faction.

Hope that helps.

nice!

i'll give it a whirl when i get home from work.

quick question...

would you anticipate it blowing up or working ok with a newer build? i'm running 871 and i see that its "guaranteed" for 840. worse case, i'll just give it a run through and post on your site any success/failure for others to know about.

The build is irrelevant to what database you're using with the editor. I loaded up the latest PEQ db and it worked fine.

Btw, that's not my site, I'm just using their tools.

If you have any problem with this editor let me know. WildCardX and I are working on a new version and I have not updated that one in a little while now but I will try and fix any errors that you come across in it. If you have any comments or question feel free to post them on our forums at http://eqemu.sesmar.net/forum/

Thanks for giving my editor a try and have fun.
