It depends on what TFS version are you upgrading from and to.

if your use 0.3.4 or 0.3.3 for the protocol 8.4~42 if you put the newest rev 0.3.6pl1 will update automatic
and if you use the 0.2.5 you need edit all db to pass to newest svn

Update all of the lib folders in every data sub folder.

Also, the entire creaturescripts needs to be changed to the new one.

wait, so if i use the rewest rev 0.3.6pl1 and put the data folder in it, it'll update itself?

Yes, but you'll lose most of your own modifications to it.
That is one hell of a good reason why everyone should move to mods.

It's easier to upgrade your server if you use mods for everything custom on your server.
