Can we get support for importing GG4 and GG5 databases considering they are the 2 most recent versions and GG3 is like 2+ years old and there probably isnt a lot of GG3 servers out there?

I dont want to come off as nagging to you.

I just am suggesting some things that would definitely help this plugin out.

http://www.game-monitor.com/search.p...&type=variable
795 GG5 servers

http://www.sourcemod.net/newstats.php
2064 ES GG servers total and I bet 90% or more are GG4 and GG5 servers.

You can export from gg5 sqlite database into text file, and then manualy (or via text editor replacing tool) convert in into old gg3 format. There is a firefox plugin to access sqlite databases.

I tried that extension and a separate program but GG5 saves as a .db and I couldnt find anything to convert it.

I haven't checked but if its the in same format as the .db in excel you can open it up in excel and save it as comma delimited from there.

Hope that helps.

Edit: Maybe this link may help, or not, I don't have a winnersdata.db to play around with.

Yeah that was me askin on the GG5 forums how to open it up since the firefox addon or the program didnt work.

I didnt know I could just open it up in notepad/wordpad.

I tired saving it as es_gg_winners_db.txt and ran the import but it said I had nothing to import so GG3 must save different in the actual txt file.

I can PM u my winnersdata.db if ya like.

I also have an es_gg_database.sqldb from GG4 if you would like it to try to make a converter/workaround for it.

I just feel that since there are so many GG4/GG5 servers out there, this is a must as people wont want to switch to SMs GG if they cant convert their database.

Who wants to switch if they are going to lose their thousands apon thousands of player ranks, kills, etc.?

I totally agree, send away and if I can help I will.

Sent via PM.

I sent a GG5 database and a GG4 database.

[Stitllams]

Thanks for that.

Haven't accomplished much but here is what I have noted so far.

GG4 database is definitely sqlite format so it is feasible that it could be imported using the sqlite support when that is implemented.

GG5 forums were right about the GG5 database format, they use python with cpickle to read and write to the database. Not really sure what to do with that, if it can't be done sourcemod side using c++ (cpickle is written in c), then a python script may be able to convert it to GGSM format.

Thats my thoughts so far anyway.

1) download and install http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.6.2/python-2.6.2.msi
2) copy your gg5 winners db file into some folder
3) copy attached file to the same folder
4) unzip script
5) run script and you got gg3 winners file
