granting gm privileges

that's what I was asking, how do I change access levels

[hayward6]

Well to change a users access level you can change it in the account table of the database, or you can change the default starting level in the variables tab. You change the number in the commands table by simply editing it with a sql editing tool. I hope that clears it up a bit... it's easy to understand when you know how to do it

Maybe knowing what you use to edit the database will help me to understand what your seeing. Poking around in the database with an editor will help you learn a lot about how it works.

Let me know if you need anymore help, and good luck!

i don't know which program it is, i have activeperl, mysql, navicat and wincvs that I downloaded per the guide.

[hayward6]

Ok, Navicat is your database editor. You should be able to go into each of the tables we're talking about and find the settings. Do you have Navicat setup and can connect to the database with it?

[kristani]

I have it open, but nothing is on the screen

[hayward6]

Is Navicat something you're familiar with? It might be hard to explain if you're new to using it... You selected the eqemu database right? it should open up and you'll see all the different tables. I use MySQL Admin and query browser so I can't say for sure what it will look like :(

[kristani]

first time using it, i don't see how to open the database, says connection, manage users, table, view, function, others, query, report, backup, schedule up top
