    DBC editing question

    Hi all,

    I used the programs recommended on this thread, and I am using the DBC to CSV converter. I used the DBCeditor.exe but it is extremely slow with large files like spells.dbc and it even crashed when trying to save changes. Excel is just so much faster and easier...

    anyway, I am not sure what to do with the .csv file to change it back over into a .dbc file once I've made my changes. Any solutions?

    EDIT: I should have mentioned that simply changing the file extension back into .dbc doesn't work.

    I think you can look for a converter online.

    OK I figured it out with some trial and error...

    I downloaded another converter called DBCutil from here.

    I copied the dbc file I wanted to the DBCutil folder. After opening the DOS command prompt I typed DBCutil spell.dbc which created spell.dbc.csv. When I was ready to convert back to dbc I typed DBCutil spell.dbc.csv and it reconverted back to .dbc.

    I tried the same process with DBCtoCSV.exe and it wouldn't reconvert to DBC. FYI for anyone with the same problem...

    Now if I could just figure out which column of spell.dbc to edit to change the spell range.
