How to give someone Server OP access.

[saladbowl]

Hello,
Since some of you dont know how to do this, and you all prob tried in the game with whatever command that is to give em the access..but this is how you TRUELY change their access from a standard user, to GM or however high you want to rank them..you MUST HAVE EQADMIN TOOL 2.8

1) Make sure the person has created a person on your server

2) Get there account name..not the character name..the account name...

3) Log off or if you want lag then continue on with step 4

4) go into your folder that has EQADMIN in it, and start it up (before you do, make sure your sql server is running)

5) wait for the long load time......

6) Once loaded it should be on the "accounts" tab, but if its not, click on it

7) Now remember that account name? look for it in the list..once you have found the account name highlight it and you will see beside Account Status a Pull down Menu..

Standard User
Privilaged User
Gm
Lead GM
ServerOP

click on the status that you want that person to be..

9) click on Commit Changes

10) Your done! tell that person to log in, and they will be the status you put them as.

(I figured this out last night when i was playing my 2 accounts)

or ingame
#flag accountname statusnumber

so to make account saladbowl an admin,

#flag saladbowl 200

Person doing this has to have admin status first though for that, do the following from the eqemu dir

world.exe flag saladbowl 200

The admin tool is nice, but don't let it become a crutch for things that can be done easily without it.

You try and make it sound simple :p,

But in truth, the #flag *accountname* *status* usually never works in game..i have tried soooooooo many times to flag my friends account and it has told me "unable to flag account".......

Or you could just launch up the mysql client and type:

use eq
update account set status='200' where name='saladbowl';

Hope that helps
