PacketParser populate question

[erde]

Hello,

PacketParser -populate inserts the collected data into my eq2 db, does this meen spawns appear automaticly?
Do i have to edit something?

I have collected some data in DarkLight, but nothing spawns when i enter the game.
Could someone help me?!

Greetings Stefan

The spawn structures recently changed, and I know a new parser has not been checked in. That is normally something I would do, but I have been very busy, and LE was adding some functionality to (hopefully) parse Linked Spawn Groups to automatically populate the DB too. In other words, parser is probably broken for -populate right this moment. Soon to be fixed.

That's about all the info I can give, as my primary duty here is to build the Official Database - and any time spent helping others build private databases is time away from that goal. Sorry how that sounds, but it's how it is.

Maybe someone else has time to help others build private databases.

Thanks,

i dont want yout to explain me everythink in detail. This is was my first time trying to create a database.
My goal is simply to understand how the emu handles the data in the database.

No offense, i know your time is limited.

Thanks for the answer.

No offense taken. Just letting you know I can't get into it too much. But you tend to figure things out better than most, so I knew that'd be enough for ya

Im looking for somewhere to download EQ2PacketCollector, I have searched high and low the only posts I found with a download link seemed to have the link removed.

Im guessing as the database structure has changed, it just needs updating at which point it will be posted?
