Transferring/merging databases

Post by Saytham1980 »

Hi guys.

I'm thinking about working on a DEL/DEL2-database of the 2017/2018 season.

My question: Can a new database be added to an existing one?

People for example have the latest TBL-roster v10.1, where the DEL/DEL2 is not the latest. Can I work on a DEL/DEL2 database and people can just "add" the update to their existing TBL-database?

Yes, you can do that

or you can join our research crew for TBL updates.
I have the DEL rosters up-to-date in a not-yet-release version of the database

Hey.

Did you finish your work in the meantime?

I started working on a complete DEL-facepack and even uploaded it to Steam. I know I had a working database, too. Just the correct players at their latest teams. No contract editing so far. But at some point I must have been somewhere else with my thoughts and it seems I have deleted/overwritten my DEL-database. :(

My motivation to start it all over again is... well, let me know if anyone finds it.

Cool. Thanks for the fast answer. :)

Should be in the next game/league I start, because I subscribed TBL-rosters on Steam, already.
