This guide is a quick reference to help people make their character on their own test server into a GM
Starting Out
Create a character and login to your character for the first time. After you have logged in successfully, log out (or /shutdown).
Now you can continue either using Navicat or the mysql command-line tool.
Open navicat and connect to your database (if you don't know how to do that, head back over to the Building the Server page to refamiliarize yourself)
Go to Tables
Go to char_stats table and open it (double-click)
Find your character's id (You can find your character id by opening the "chars" table, and viewing the id column by the name of your character, but if this is your first and only character the id will be 21828)
Change the name_flags field from 0 to 83886080
After you set the value, press the down arrow to go to the next line (this will save the table) or click the checkmark at the bottom of the tables window.
Re-open the table to ensure the value has been set.
Additionally, it is now required to also open the "chars" table, and set the gmlevel field to something other than zero. GM Levels range from zero (no permissions) to 4 (all commands available).
Log into the game and check that the GM icon is in place and that your name is red.
Using mysql
Open a command prompt (Win+R->cmd)
type in
mysql -u root -ppassword
where password is the password you set in the Building the Server tutorial.
at the prompt type in:
USE dspdb; SELECT charid, charname FROM dspdb.chars;
to get a list of character names and ID.
Replace 21828 below with the charid of the character you want to modify and use these queries:
UPDATE char_stats SET nameflags = '83886080' WHERE charid = 21828;
UPDATE chars SET gmlevel = 4 WHERE charid = 21828;
Log into the game and check that the GM icon is in place and that your name is red.
Alternative Values
These are all of the possible GM level values. Replace the nameflags value with one of these to get a different GM level.
Flag | GM Level |
67108864 | GM |
83886080 | GM Senior |
100663296 | GM Leader |
117440512 | SE Producer |
