Move to raven script

Sorry if this is in the wrong section, but it seemed to be the most appropriate place for it.

I am looking to move to Raven script from an older version of FutureNuke. Right now I have the Raven script installed in a subfolder so that I can test functionality.

Everything seems to be OK with the script, but I have a question about the DB. Right now I just created a blank DB to install the script, but I want to move the data over from the old script to the new script. Would there be any issue if I just exported the data out of the old DB into the new DB?

Welcome Imperial.

The export will work if the database structures are identical. You can use a tool like MYSQL diff to do a database comparison and there is a tool in the UtilityFiles directory of your Ravennuke distribution that will also do a comparison between the Ravennuke 2.4 database structure and your old structure. There is documentation right in the files on how to run it.

I'm not familiar with Futurenuke so I don't have any insight into how similar the database structures are.
