Let's start without bots, since adding bots with PEQ is actually harder than it sounds.
Download the latest PEQ database.
Source the peq_2013xxxxx.sql first. Then user_tablesxxxx, and finally source_views.sql.
This will get you a basic server running without bots and mercs. Bots and mercs are disabled on PEQ though, so if you want them, you are gonna have to do some extra work. If you want to go through the trouble, I'll refer you to this post:
