I have begun the processing of the item data that is being collected by the new packetcollector. Thanks to everyone that contributed to this database. Without your help the database would be far smaller than it is today. While still smaller than the item database we have used for months, this new database contains almost 15,000 items. Once this new database has been verified, I will be switching the item dump over to this new database and deleting those old items (half of which are corrupt). Although we will lose a few items, it will be better to have items that are known to be correct. This (like the old dump) will be done every 8 hours and can be downloaded here:

Please continue to help by collecting items for the community, the more people that contribute, the better it will be for everyone. It's simple, all you have to do is:
1. Install network capture dll (if its not installed already) from
http://winpcap.polito.it/install/default.htm
2. Download PacketCollector from
http://www.eqemulator.net/PacketCollector.zip
3. Run it from the command line like this:
PacketCollector (your ip address here) -items -name (Whatever nickname you want here)
4. Login to EQ or zone, and then upload the items by Control U or Control C.
If you see any problems with the new database let me know. (More than likely just a simple error on my part if there is).
