George, my personal thanks for keeping your tools up. I know they helped me a lot and many I know throughout the many years.

I second what Akkadius said above.

I haven't been very active around here in the past year or so. I was just thinking today that I need to get the latest copy of GeorgeS' tools so I can maybe get back into working on my server some more. Still, he never ceases to amaze me with his devotion to the community and supplying an excellent tool set that is regularly kept up with the source. Without GeorgeS' tools, I probably never would have been able to start my own server and get into everything that came along with it.

Server is external if it matters.


Can connect fine with Navicat, EOC, Remote Desktop, etc.

Bump...

I'm not sure about the external DB working. I remember somewhere someone posting about it and not sureif they got it working. RD (remote desktop) is what I would try

The NPC&looteditor has the extra fields added, and this version is live.

Trevious, thanks for the kind words. I'm always around, sometimes just lurking.

Where does one actually obtain the current version of the tools?

According to this site: http://www.georgestools.chrsschb.com/ the tools were updated 10/7/2014


However, when opening the file downloaded from that link, you get a version from 10/2/2012

This version doesn't support Drakkin as a player race, for example.

What is a valid link for the newer versions?
