I was wondering if anyone could kindly give me a hand.
1st here is my situation I’m a British Expat in China and have been for over 5 years, before I left the UK I made a SWGEMU server and collected all the information I needed to run that server.

However, since coming to China, my data was lost because my backup drive got corrupted.

2nd When trying to find information now I have a big issue, to accuses the Western internet I need to use a VPN. So it’s impossible for me to visit the SWGEMU foams and I had my account banned just because I tried to access it from China with my UK VPN hub.

3rd you might say well play on an existing server out there. Well, playing on a server outside China is not practical ping-wise or is blocked without using a VPN so I need to make my own server again.



My questions are moding the server related:
Some of these are likely easy to answer, but as I said, I lost everything and can't accuse SWGEMU foams.

1: Where do I turn on and off blue frogs, I say this because the last time I had a server blue frogs were automatically on and I want them off.

2: I believe I have managed to edit the server files to increase server lots but as a backup what is the Admin command in-game?
I kind of recall just doing that five years ago.

3: What is the easiest way to turn a server into a pre-9 Jedi server, Sure I don’t mind the village unlock but is there a way for all new Jedi to progress via the old skill trees?
I unlocked pre-CU but never got to try pre-9 Jedi
I extracted skills.iff from patch_14_00.tre but when looking for the parts to edit I can't find the "Hidden" and "God Only" checkboxes

Any help would be truly appreciated

Ok to all who also cant access SWGEMU forums here is the answer
You need to do all the above but also edit swgemu.cfg
#.include "user.cfg" <--- Remove the #

Blue frogs are found in the bin/scripts/managers/planet/planet_manager.lua file
You will need to scroll through each planet section and -- comment out each line for {templateFile = "object/tangible/terminal/terminal_character_builder.iff" the text will change colour when it works. Save the file and rebuild the server.
Also save the file to another location, so if you have to rebuild your server from scratch you have the mod already and don't have to do so much editing again!
If you want to create an admin character, (I use admin as the account log in, but a complex password) create the account, then get into the database with something like Mysql workbench and change the account level to 15 before creating a character. Any character created on that account will then be God Mode.

There are a lot more tips, tricks and mods listed if you search the Legend of Hondo here.

I got that part already and have managed to spawn a blue frog but what I'm talking about is spawning mobs and NPCs.

I think I found it but I'm at work so I can't test it yet

/object spawn krayt_dragon_ancient 50 0 0
Is this the command to spawn things

/createcreature krayt_dragon_ancient
/createcreature lord_nyax
Got it working

I worked out like everything now but I recall one thing that I cant find.
I was sure that there was an admin command that increased a structure's item limit.
I'm going mad or does anyone know what I'm thinking about
