You know help how to merge the two database servers.
I used the command ./gamedbd and showed me that it may be possible through the merge commands dbdatapath | mergewdb dbdatapatch but I don't know how to use properly.

Trial and error my friend, trial and error
I don't think anybody has ever actually used it
My question is, once they are merged, what about the login accounts in the mysql database. Surely you would need to merge them too and somehow make the account IDs match up with the new IDs in the merged database.
Nope, can't say that I have...Quote:

merge account ID and merge the character databases. then you done.
but i think you need script to do that
With a php script it is possible to arrange the mysql tables, but you have to know how it works to merge the database from the server.
It's always been used on servers using 1 account database.
So in theory all that would happen is the the accountID2userID table would be updated with a new ID system for all the characters.
Or perhaps a prefix for each server.
Perhaps thats why they implemented that accountID2userID table after 1.3.1.
If you had 2 separate mysql tables then I'm not sure merging would be possible since you would already have overlapping account IDs in the table.
ah-HA so that's what it does, ** adding to documentation :)
Those servers were created sharing the same name database so that if they needed to be merged at some point, it would be easily possible.Quote:
