The version of the OpenDataQuest input tool is based on the below :
- a major version (v1.0, v1.1, ...) : in case the CSV structure must be changed
- a minor version (64, 65, ...) : corresponding to EveOfDarkness/db-public data release = the Mob, Worldobject, ItemTemplate dropdown lists are based on this version
It means the CSV files are compatible within the same major version.
Start testing and share your findings !
