I don't know if this will be of any use, but it's an item database for EQ2.
http://www.eq2idb.com

I actually installed this, hoping it used a Jet DB back-end that I could simply open and read - but alas it is some off-the-wall obscure proprietary "bob's database" type thing that I couldn't take the time to figure out how to crack into.
If you have the tools and can get inside this DB, the info in there might be helpful. I just didn't have the patience.

we should be able to pull from the php search on the website. but the actual file format looks very basic just plain text with an item number to identify it.
I found out how to extract the database no problem
It uses absolute database 5
Its a free program http://www.soft32.com/Download/free-tri ... 405-3.html
I downloaded it renamed the dat file to an .abs and chose file open and bam I got the tables.
If you want the details or the files let me know..
Here are the extracted excel spreadsheets enjoy

WOOT I did something useful

I loaded his database into mysql a while back. Eventually I will create a macro that will collect all the items from live.

Thanks, chroxx, nice work. Yeah, absolute db... that's the name. Like there needs to be yet one more database type out there.
