install a fresh db and see what changes have been made this way you can check each table

Well, 2 years ago I used to migrate my server back and forth alot, l2jfree, umbrella, l2jserver.

It might sound hard but its not, here is what I used to do:

1) BACKUP your database before doing anything.

2) Prepare your l2jserver files, custom edits, gmshop, buffer..etc So your files are ready but you need the database now.

3) Now take your server offline, run L2JSERVER database installer and let it UPGRADE your EMU/LIVE database.

4) Once the update is OVER, start your gameserver.

5) Note down all console errors. Now 99% of these errors if not all, will be telling you that some columns are missing in your tables. Columns l2jserver needs but not needed in emu version.

6) Some tables might need "renaming" but im not sure, I never used emu pack so I dont know its database structure, but take wedding table for example. in l2jserver its called mods_wedding and in emu it might be called wedding so it will need renaming.

7) Once your done adding/renaming/editing your database tables, start the gameserver again and see if any errors are left.

Finally, I recommand you dont install your custom database patchs "custom npcs/drops.." until your convert to l2jserver is complete.

Hope this helps, pm me if you still need help.

When migrating to L2jserver can only use a revision, if the EPILOGUE. The Gracia Final and earlier will no longer function?

I think you misunderstood me. if you put a rev. the servergame config Gracia final part will be the problem client.

It will only work on client EPILOGUE????
