What is REALLY required to limit everything to specific expansions?
From what I can tell, it is extremely involved. PLEASE CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG!!!
1. I think you need to go remove all rows from char_create_combinations that are classes or races you don't want people to use.
2. I think you need to go to zones and set up the min_status to something beyond what your character default status is. (I default to 0 status). I'm trying to set up each the zones in each expansion, in intervals of 10. For instance classic is 10, kunark zones are 20, velious zones are 30, luclin zones are 40, pop zones are 50, etc...
Even that may not fully work. I haven't even started trying to turn off all the pok teleport books... Is there an EASY way to truly limit to specific expansions that works?

The post you are commenting on is 7 years old. It's got a lot of old information relevant to 2008. The only way to truly limit expansions is to set the min_status field in the zone table. Players that try and enter zones they don't have the status for will be denied entry.
There's not an 'easy button' for specific expansion setups, never was. As for what races/classes/deities/starting zones you can make, yes that table controls what you can create.
