Just follow this easy guide (assumes you have everything except for the DB installed and configured).
- Download the TCMyWorld sources (here and here).
- Unzip the files into your "C:\mysql\bin" folder.
- Drop to the command line ("Start"->"Run. . ."->"cmd" or "command").
- Change your directory to C:\mysql\bin ("cd c:\mysql\bin").
- Start the MySQL Monitor with the '-b', '-s', and 'f' switches ("mysql -b -f -s -u root -p"). Enter your password (if you have one) or just press [ENTER].
- Create your EQ database ("create database eq;").
- Change to your database ("use eq");
- Source your SQL files ("source MW055_alpha1.sql" and "source MW055_alpha_02.sql").
- Create your EQEMu default user ("INSERT INTO account (id, name, charname, packencrypt, sharedplat, password, status, lsaccount_id, gmspeed, revoked) VALUES (1, 'eqemu', '', '', 0, 'eqemu', 250, NULL, 0, 0);").
The trick is in the switches that have been added to the mysql prompt. They disable the display of everything but errors, shut off that annoying "beep on error" setting, and force MySQL to continue sourcing the files even if it runs into an error.
It will still take a little bit (some estimates say as long as two hours), but that's still less than one fifth the "normal" time!
