Mssql 2008

[Pcolbourne]

On a scale of 1 to 10 how hard is it to setup a private mir 3 server???? have never used mssql before, and have looked at the setup guide in the other threads. But it use's mssql 2000 which is no longer downloadable i was going to us 2008 ed and was wondering how much difference there was, between the two

cheers pete

to set it up with guides i would say 1/10.

To know what ur doing, to put effort in, to updates it all the time, to fix all bugs to, put up with ppl moaning at u as soon as u log in game or msn, then the loss of all ur players to mir 3 goble.

its really not worth it but gl any way

It is a little bit harder I setuped a mir 3 job 1.4 myself on a Windows Webserver 2008. Worked fine.
Right now I am trying the same with the VE/3.38/3.55.

I would say if you give a 4 to setup a server on 2000. Then its a 5 on 2008 xD. But it's more difficult if you never used MySQL, because you have no guides no nothing. Not many People did it already so there are not a lot of people who can help.

If you still want to try I can maybe help a little bit.

Good Luck Sebel

SQL 2008 is good to use, but more simpler using xp|2003|SQL2000. Works better for the 3G files.

Using 2008 doesn't make it 5 and only 4 on SQL2000, as the files are read the same and as for SQL2008, its a far heavier and memory buring program, where as SQL2000 isn't.

ive downloaded the service manager which works for 05 & 08. but still get the same thing :/

maybe im not importing the tables in the right place, its alot more complex than 2000 lol.

look in my newest thread there you can see that you cant use 2008 for a cruel dragon server mapadale answered me that so I would do a job (i build up the job server in max.20 min. so it is easy, maybe more difficult then 2000 ok but i got it done and never work with mysql befor that, too. And it runs)

And because of the numbers... sorry i am german so 10 is the hardest for me xD and 1 is easy sorry that miss understanding.
