This is how newbie I am. I didnt know you can compile or there were already ones. I just installed mysql, ax-classic, heidie.sql. I found maps on a cd I had saved a few months ago from the first installation of EQ-EMU. I guess I am confused on the 2 types of data bases. Peq I had remembered from then, had some expansions supported that the AX-classic did not. Don't know if this has changed. Sorry for being such a newbie, but I really am a newbie. A 47 yr old newbie when it comes to figuring this out and trying not to look stupid to all the brains out there. lol!
