Windows Create account - password turns to jibberish, help? :)

hey everyone.

Been trying to host a server for a few days - saw people making accounts but nobody ever logs in, so I went into xampp and saw that everyone's password pretty much looks like this.

8baabd882a0a22cf16abbc89141ef6d47dff52df
or
a5ad4fa5010b904a81ac4d7ed60944bb965ae50d

both are pretty unguessable.
at first I thought it was just encryption but why would it encrypt it for the server owner?

Any suggestions would be very helpful.

That's SHA1 encryption!

If you want to change password or something from database! There is something << next to password indulce SHA1 and someother things 'select SHA1' and write the password on the line at the right side then click GO ,It will be like this one.

How can I get rid of it though?
Whenever a player creates an account - their password is changed to this SHA1 Encryption, and cannot log-in to the server, however they can log-in to the website.

How/what can I change or do to allow the players to login to the server? without me manually reseting their password?

As most players are not going to post on the forum if they cannot login when they first join a server.

Thank you for the reply however!

config.lua

encryptionType = "sha1"

Change it to "plain" - TFS should prompt you with a warning. If you want to remove the warning it's in otserv.cpp
But just for your own knowledge, SHA1 is suggested in case of a database security leak, a hacker cannot obtain player passwords if you're using SHA1 encryption.
