Private paid server. Creative need to admin

[dragonmanb 0]

Hello, My freind is running a server through Gtx gaming and we are doing creative. We need to admin in a trader for a village but we can't seem to find a way to become admin and the service that we are renting from sucks for customer service. If we were hosting the server our selfs this would not be a problem but unfortunaly we have players form all over the world.

If they have no control panel for GM power, then you'll need to edit the db manually.

 

To do this download and install: https://sqlitebrowser.org/ DB Browser for SQLite

 

Download the players.db from your server via FTP.

Open the players.db file in SQLite browser

Go to Browse Data, select the Players table

 

You can type in the name of the name of the person or just search through until you find the person's name.

Scroll on over to the right and there will be a POWER column. Just change 0 to the appropriate power level. Arch is 4, Admin is 5

 

Click Write Changes

Save. Exit.

 

Upload players.db back to the server via FTP.

 

The player is now an admin and you can type #give 176 on a Power 5 account (Admin)

 

As an Admin you will have the ability to create new ebony wands via the create menu or you can just make as many as you need to trade to your other GMs.

 

Lastly, backup all your data and migrate to Pingperfect or literally any other service that has a control panel specifically for Wurm unless you go dedicated once your term is over, because what's the point of all this hassle when you can literally just push a button on Pingperfect and all this happens for you? For pretty much the same price, with more access, quick customer service ticket response times, and almost never a "Idk how to help you" response.

 

Cheers!

Wurm Unlimited Dedicated Server\AdventureCopy\sqlite\wurmplayers.db

 

AdventureCopy was just the name of the server in this example and will be different to what you are looking for but everything else is the same.
