Is there a way to import previously created character to the new release?
I tried to copy some files from database directory and from WFT folder of WOW but it does not work.
Hope you can help me.

Thank you in advance for you attention

Hi. You can either do this manually (dump your current character & account tables) and execute it to the v.6 by dropping the existen ones. You can easilly do this, as long as you don't drop new created tables in v.6. It's pretty way to go, and doesn't require much. But if you want me to describe it further, let me know.

Option 2 is using this tool:

Which a lot of the users have used in oder to import it faster, and well.. easier :)

I launched MySqlStarter.exe
Then bnetserver.exe and worldserver.exe
At this point I launched CharImport
I'm trying to connect to Database with the following data:

Probably I'm doing something wrong

I'm really new to all of this so I have difficulties to understand How to perform a simple action like this.
Be patient with me :)

EDIT: OK found it.
Database Address: 127.0.0.1 Port: 3306
Username: root
Password: ascent

Hope I will now able to copy my old PG.
Thank you again

Ex, I would greatly appreciate it if you could explain it further, because it's not working out so well for me lol I tried using the CharImporter, but it crashes, even on a single character import directly to the database or from a template. I have also exported:
Auth->Account
Characters->AccountData, Account_Instance_Times, Account_Tutorial, Characters, Character_Account_Data, Character_Achievement, Character_Achievement_Progress, Character_Action, Character_Glyphs, Character_Inventory, Character_Pet, Character_QuestStatus, Character_QuestStatus_Rewarded, Character_Reputation, Character_Skills, Character_Spell, and Character_Talent

And then loaded those into the corresponding v6.1 tables and while I was able to get all the characters imported (talents, skills, professions, glyphs, achievements, etc) were ALL there, except for ALL their inventory. It's a bit of a tedious process because with the AHBot added under Characters already, I had to shift all my guIDs to start with 2 instead of 1 for all the tables I exported (increasing all the guIDs +1). That may have been why the CharImporter kept crashing, I'm not sure. What can I do to make sure I get all their inventory?

The increasing of GUID's is probably not why CharImporter kept crashing. I'm not sure why it would, maybe it's a compatibility issue? I've used the CharImporter from v4 all through to v6.1, and so far it's worked.

If you want, send me a download your database in a zip file that you want to copy your characters, and I'll use CharImporter on my computer to export them to a template file, then maybe you'll have better luck importing them. Unless the problem is also with importing?
If so, then send me the download to both databases in zip files, the one you want to export from, and import to (and make sure to specify which one is which), and I'll see what I can do.
Edit: If you do send me the download links, it's probably best to send it to me through a private message.
