Setting up a GM account with new EQEmuLoginServer.exe & DB

[spidey1170]

It was fairly simple to setup a GM account using a single DB and minilogin; however, using the new EQEmuLoginServer.exe and Vale's guide (stickied at the top), I'm not sure, or am unable, to setup up a GM account using the new DB structure.

Thanks in advance for any help =)

its the same as it was before, you need to make the status change in the server DB and not the loginserver DB.

Do I replicate my account info completely (re: password, etc)?

just find your account name in the account table and add 255 to the status field and your good to go.

I had one oddity setting up the eqemuloginserver that might help. What I found is that in the logindb the account name has to be encrypted like the password.

Watch the eqemuloginserver window and you will see a message that says <scrambled name> not found. I then went into the logindb (not the emu db) and replaced literal name with scrambled name and everything works like a champ.

I love eqemuloginserver in spite of this littlle oddity.

It uses SHA hash functions for passwords so is that what you mean? I have never encrypted the user name and it works fine.
