If you had a user that didn't get through approval on the forum, please try again. We've tweaked some of the parameters for user registration and questions used during the onboarding. This should also help reduce spam bot registrations.

If you have any issues please feel free to contact the PEQ Team on Discord
I am excited to announce that @ 1AM CST, the server will be going down to install the DZ / Expedition system that has been under heavy development by @hg (ProjectEQ community member) for over half a year and has gone through extensive testing on the ProjectEQ Sandbox Test server. The server should be down for 30 minutes maximum

EDIT: We are now live!

The DZ / Expedition system was introduced originally during Gates of Discord and then back ported into earlier content such as Plane of Time. More info here and here

FYI: PEQ database dumps have been moved!

You can now find them at http://db.projecteq.net/ which will contain archives for the past 30 days and 1 archive for each month from now on. This will be generated at 3AM CDT every day

The latest dump can always be found here http://db.projecteq.net/latest

The EQEmu server installer; and any other utility that depended on this for bringing in the base database will need to be updated to conform to the new dump format as seen below

File Structure

Code:
./create_all_tables.sql
./create_tables_content.sql
./create_tables_login.sql
./create_tables_player.sql
./create_tables_queryserv.sql
./create_tables_state.sql
./create_tables_system.sql
./drop_all_tables.sql
./drop_tables_content.sql
./drop_tables_login.sql
./drop_tables_player.sql
./drop_tables_queryserv.sql
./drop_tables_state.sql
./drop_tables_system.sql
Magelo forum signatures that still had peqtgc.com in the URL were mass-replaced with projecteq.net so that they continue to show up properly
As noted in previous threads; ProjectEQ has undergone a server migration, a hardware upgrade as well as an entire tech stack upgrade. ProjectEQ now entirely runs on containerized technology

This will help us in preparation for some future plans to be announced within the next few months

Highlights
  • No more server reboots, we will be keeping the server online as long as need (or until we need to reset or reload content)
  • Zone times should be much faster
  • Server response times overall should definitely be noticeably snappier
  • Web tools are hooked back up
Loginserver

If you have not had a chance to update your Loginserver host and you primarily use ProjectEQ's Loginserver to login, make sure you update your eqhost.txt file to point to

Code:
[LoginServer]
Host=login.projecteq.net:5999
If anyone notices anything broken out of the ordinary please feel free to respond in thread

Enjoy!

The ProjectEQ Team
Because I do not have the ability to adjust the peqtgc.com domain, I've switched us over to www.projecteq.net which is ironically the domain we used quite some time ago

You may need to log back in to get your password managers to pick up on the site properly

To avoid future issues, please update your PEQ loginserver eqhost.txt to

Code:
[LoginServer]
Host=login.projecteq.net:5999
Thanks everyone

Akk and the PEQ Team
Greetings PEQ!

Today we've pushed some Network code improvements that have been tested on a few other servers before landing onto PEQ today. If you notice any issues out of the norm please respond in thread.
