Is there anyone working on any portion of the database for 0.5.0?

If not, I could really use someone to do it. There's a possibility that the current databases could be upgraded, but with all the new stuff on EQLive, it might be good to start from scratch.

For development, I could use someone to make progress on the items table. You'd have to put some brainwork into it - because our database will be changing. Ideally, you'd use your own format for storing item info and would have your own "internal" database of items. Then, you'd make something to convert your internal format to whatever our current item table looks like. That way, as we finalize the items table, you can change the output as necessary to generate a new item dump.

Merth,

Ive been looking into the possibility of useing the same table, but pulling out from the raw_data into seperate fields the information needed to create and or edit an item, then storing both back into the fields, and the raw_data blob. Im not sure if this is what youre talking about or not,
I can try and come up with an semi-official items table that will work with the .5 dr2 code and be able to convert to the final when thats posted, but am willing to help in whatever area I can help in.
Thanks,
GoldDragon-Krushers-Dev

i had been spending alot of time trying to go through pop zones for the 4.4, went on vacation, came back and now were all working on 5.0. well unfortunetly im a DB updator/creator, and since i do most of that with /spawn commands and such im kinda screwed till i can get my hands on a c++ compiler that dosent mess up when i try to compille the new source, i have everything set up on my server for the 5.0 binaries once i get them compiled so when i finnaly get lucky and get them compiled ill be back in making my additions.
