 Note: These instructions for now will be primarily based in Windows, but any Linux savvy individual should be able to translate the steps
 
 1. Software Requirement: MariaDB (MySQL DB, etc.) to allow EQ2Emulator LoginServer / WorldServer to interface
+
 Obtain Latest Install (be sure to select OS on the right hand side as default will be a linux distro): https://mariadb.com/downloads/
+
 Installation Instructions for MariaDB can be found here: https://mariadb.com/kb/en/installing-mariadb-msi-packages-on-windows/
+
 Note: Be sure to remember the user and password defined in the installation!!  Used in later steps.
 
+
 2. Open MySQL Client: Login using the password (assigned to root or other default user) setup in the MariaDB installation.
 
 
 3. Source in Databases: Issue the following commands to setup EQ2Emulator's databases for login (eq2ls) and world (eq2emu).
+
    a. You must first go into source C:\[YOUREQ2EMUGITSRC]\DB\ and extract world_db.zip 'Here' into the same \DB\ directory.
+
    b. Run the following commands in the MySQL Client prompt:
-create database eq2ls;
-create database eq2emu;
-\u eq2ls
-source C:\[YOUREQ2EMUGITSRC]\DB\ls_db.sql
-\u eq2emu
-source C:\[YOUREQ2EMUGITSRC]\DB\world_db.sql
+
+  create database eq2ls;
+  create database eq2emu;
+  \u eq2ls
+  source C:\[YOUREQ2EMUGITSRC]\DB\ls_db.sql
+  \u eq2emu
+  source C:\[YOUREQ2EMUGITSRC]\DB\world_db.sql
 
 
 4. Add Game Account / World Account: Using the same MySQL Client, continue on creating your accounts
 
 Game Login Account:
+
 insert into account set name='test',passwd=md5('test');
 
 World Login Account (LoginServer.ini):
+
 insert into login_worldservers set name='TestLabs',account='testlabs',description='TestLabs',password=md5('testpass'),login_version='0.7.3-dev';
 
 
 5. Open the C:\[YOUREQ2EMUGITSRC]\server\LoginServer.ini file (Notepad or other flavor editor)
