• Default DarkRP data vs MySQL?

Which one is better? Also what is tmysql4? I know there was an exploit awhile ago for MySQL, do you guys think it's still exploitable?
What Rocket said. IMHO, I could only see MySQL benefiting you if you add multiple game servers. i.e. have two different DarkRP server connected to the same database. Or have a TTT and DarkRP server on the same MySQL server, etc (Not too sure about having two gamemodes on the same database, I think it would work IIRC). Right now I'm working on an old TTT server a friend of mine is hosting, and I find that Gmod's basic SQLite database (sv.db) works okay.
[QUOTE=Rocket;51934833]The most common reason I would think for using MySQL is to access the data from somewhere else (for example, for showing it on a website or loading screen, or for manipulating it in eg a donation page).[/QUOTE] Okay thanks! Do you think it's slower or faster? I've honestly had problems with the default DarkRP data (sv.db) after a bunch of data is collected it just goes corrupt.
Also, what's better? tmysql4 or mysqloo? I heard mysqloo has memory leaks and other problems, but I also heard tmysql4 is discontinued.
[QUOTE=ThatDesire;51936147]Also, what's better? tmysql4 or mysqloo? I heard mysqloo has memory leaks and other problems, but I also heard tmysql4 is discontinued.[/QUOTE] tmysql4 is no longer supported, it also has a somewhat intentional "bug" where execution order of queries is a bit undefined. Older versions of mysqloo had memory leaks, however v9 doesn't afaik. I've been using it for almost a year now with no problems. [URL="https://facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1515853"]MySQLOO v9[/URL]
