Also I just noticed no matter what your hp and mana and so forth is the personal/inventory window caps at 2757

I think off the top of my head it follows the same scheme as live, but I'm not certain. I simply numbered the deities 1 through whatever and made up some names and descriptions without trying to stay too close to live. I've designed a preliminary packet to let the world server change the deity --> race/class allocations, but haven't added support for it yet. Other things keep cropping up, and at the moment I'm working on letting users change server filtering options from the options pane (though at this stage just designing in my head, as ironically, the biggest PITA for it will be constructing a drop-down GUI component for my GUI library -- which, believe it or not, I created from scratch).

hrmm ok but i was meaning more the numbering for the item visuals dropdown in the admin tool, for instance scimitar visual is like 41 or something and in the scn file its like sword3 or something, so im trying to figure out how it assigns the number value for the database field idfile. I dont really grasp how it assigns the id # cause in the equipment.scn file they are all named not numbered

Take a closer look at the scn file, and if you're loading it in OpenZone, look at File...Properties. There are a number of entries beginning with IT, sich as IT8, etc. The number corresponds directly to the number in the admin tool's visuals drop-down.
