Character Data Field updates

[Shinzon]

I am curious if there is an easy way to tell what changes have occured to the Character Data field whenever updates occur. I know how to parse the data and modify it.

However I'm wondering if there is there a DBC that shows what the different fields are within the data field? Or is it really just trial and error as to how you can tell what has changed and what hasn't?

the udb wiki has some info on the data field but i'm not sure if it's still up or not with the change they went through and all. you might want to try searching for it at their site. Last time i checked it was a little outdated. There was another site that had a php script that gave you the correct info but i can't find it right now if i do i'll let you know.

yeah, I usually use UDB wiki but it's way out of date. That's why I'm looking at ways I can figure it out on my own.

Let me know if you find the php script.

Thanks

Ok... I've been looking through the changes in the Character Data field between the most recent patch and 2.4.3.

Am I the only one who thinks that Character Migration is going to be a ROYAL PAIN IN THE A**?

subhuman_bob: To the guys working on 3.0.x converter: I don't know if it can be done only by SQL. The 1.12-->2.x converter was in Python.

=)

Edit: here is the link to the 1.12 > 2.x conv maybe you can use it to update it for the 3.0
