sorry if this is in the wrong area but it touches diff areas of topic.

for those that installed Cave dude's server setup. that wishes to install the latest ver of the EQEmu (like the 0.7.0-992 ) and/or PEQ data base and is getting fustrated with the zone crashing.. and is also gettting fustrated with combing through changelog.txt files here is what I sourced into my MySql DB

I made a file called kc7wzl.sql

then I put this stuff in it ( saving as ansi stand. )

What you need to do is learn how to download/install the PEQ database from the PEQ CVS - all that is already added and more.
As for the different database, The PEQ databse that is available for download VIA CVS, has more packet-spawned zones than any of the others.
Everyone is hard at work fixing things to the emulator and database, this is why the Cavedude installer fell behind.
You can still use Cavedudes installer, then after it is all running - update PEQ from CVS (this will give you a superior database), so you can then update the binaries.
