Default ProjectEQ Daily Dump

I finally got around to implementing a public daily dump of our database, quests, and phpeditor. You can find it here: http://peqtgc.com/releases

If the webserver is down for whatever reason, the direct long link is: https://drive.google.com/folderview?...p=sharing#list

The SVN for quests (https://code.google.com/p/projecteqquests/) and PEQPHPEditor (https://code.google.com/p/peqphpeditor/) will still be used by the team to develop, so if you are setup to use those feel free to continue to do so. However, the only purpose of the database SVN was to provide releases, so this new system effectively renders it obsolete. I'll keep it up for reference, but it will no longer be used by me.

Just a couple of notes, PEQ will no longer be providing updates to the user tables (character_, account, quest_globals, rules_values, etc.) These updates are handled by the EQEmu git repo in the utils/sql/git folder, by the developers that require those changes. It is also important to note that the user table sql included in the daily dump is ONLY meant for fresh installs. DO NOT source that into an existing database if you value your character data! You want to source the large peqbeta file into your database to get the newest content.

Also, due to the nature of how PEQ is developed, please be aware that the database and quests may not always be 100% compatible with the current EQEmu master branch on git. Some days it may be behind if I haven't had a chance to update PEQ yet. But often, PEQ may be running off a branch instead of Master (for example, PEQ currently is on the Lua branch and our quests reflect that.) Or, there may be times when PEQ is running code that requires a DB/quest change that is not major enough to require a branch but has not yet made it into Git. Please also know there may be more bugs in the daily dumps than the somewhat polished SVN releases I used to do. It's just the nature of the beast, and something that happens with daily dumps of software that is actively being developed.
