EHM 2007 Pre Game Database Format
Posted: Sun Oct 16, 2011 11:44 pm
The 2007 database structure was published. If it's not still on the SI forums i have a copy somewhere that i could upload.
Regarding releasing the source code for my editor - i'm not planning on doing so as i may well go back to it at some point and it would not be easy to explain all of the add-ins that are required for the editor nevermind the other things in the code!!!
One of the big issues with multiple people editing the database is that there are so many extra things that get updated when you add/edit a staff member that it is nealy impossible to do this in a multi user way (a web version might be possible but it would be pretty complicated to code and might have to invlove exporting the db to some other database and then re-creating the EHM structure using another tool). Best i could offer is an export/import to allow editing of existing staff only. In theory it should be do-able but i'd have to look at how much work and where my up to date source code is
