How to?- Customizing the server - 6.2-DR1

[EQEmu102]

Welp I tried to use EQ Admin but eithe rI have a terribly outdated version (I got the most recent one off SF) or it's just not compatable with 6.2 DB format. some stuff worked but a lot didnt.

I was manually screwing around with the SQL tables and was able to reset all the starter zones the way I wanted to but there has to be better tools for customizing a 6.2 server.

I guess what I am looking for is a lits of tested 6.2 tools that other people are using succesfully.


My BIG question has to do with how quests and NPC interaction works with 6.2 servers? Do I need to use perl? I had at first assumed that I NEEDED perl working to do quests but Dr.Z said contrary that we can do questing using a regular zone.exe (If compiled to support questing which it sounds like no one has working yet.)

I'll be browsing the Wikki tonight but I just thought I'd toss out a call for help and see what tools the rest of yous are using for your 6.2 servers.

Thanks in advance.
