4-Byte UTF-8 Support affecting merge?

[Rymax99]

So recently I tried to merge 2 MyBB databases. I followed standard procedures such as ensuring plugins are uninstalled, upgraded the forum to 1.6.12 before merging, etc. I always ran into a database error when merging (generic). The forum I'm merging TO is 4-Byte UTF-8 Support for all of its tables, and I know that the merge system was made before that was added (that was added in 1.6.12 if I remember). Is there a way to downgrade my forum to plain UTF-8 to see if that will solve the issue? It makes sense to me that it'd be the issue.

What does a generic database error look like, exactly? Doesn't it have an error code, some number or message, anything? Screenshot?

I think it was an error somewhere else. I merged my existing database to a clean install of MyBB, and it worked. Now I'm going to try to do it to my final one, I'll keep this updated.
