Well, I didn't realize I typed the / for sub main line, but I forgot to declare the variables . Dumb me. I'm not used to declaring them and I thought if you defined them that they were global. Thanks for your help everyone!

I must be thinking dumb tonight or something. I want to be able to run a macro and have it loop the number of times I request, for instance.. /macro runme 100 That would cause the loop to run 100 times, but how the heck do I pass the parameter? I'm at a loss and I can't figure out the new system. I'...

Holy shit. I exit EQ for a measly 8 months or so and come back and there's been 2 expansion packs released and none of my macros work anymore! /Cry. It's gonna take some thinking in terms of EQ since i've been taking a break from the computer for quite a while. My wonderful $t timers are gone, repla...

Check this out... maybe someone knows why this happens... If you click start -> run and type command(for command.com) and type: start /abovenormal eqgame.exe patchme Then it works just fine.... game loads with priority of abovenormal, but if you click start -> run and type cmd(windows xp command pro...

Tomservo - I hope you didn't think I was trying to flame you. I honestly wasn't. Im not a flamer kind of guy. But when someone does ask what MQ is I'll prolly change my mind =P. But anyway I didn't mean for it to be a flame. I was just trying to be funny, and I guess I didn't have a sense of humor t...

I set EQW priority, but it's child process isn't taking the same setting. It's been like this for about 2 months, maybe longer. I run my trader on my server 24x7 and loved setting it to below normal. Then the FTP/HTTP server as well as my file server for gigabit lan works great. In normal mode every...

Yeah, that one. I use shift, ctrl, you name it. You DO know you have to use EQW, right?

I've done it on my 2k3 computer for the longest time and it stopped about 2 months ago. I just tried to do it on XP and it doesn't work there either. Anyone have any idea why? Anyone else have this happen to them? I think it would be better if we could somehow force the MQ code to execute faster. I'...

I used to run EQ in below normal priority myself by typing the following in a batch file start /belownormal eqw.exe You have to do it in EQWindows because otherwise you set the priority of everquest.exe, which only patches EQ. It doesn't hand the same priority to eqgame.exe when it is actually execu...

I am having several problems with MQ lately. Most notibly attempting to /finditem xxx while on a horse/drogmor and /click left item. I have recently reinstalled windows/EQ/MQ. I know that these have been broken at various times and I thought they were fixed. I have the latest CVS as of the zip file ...

Hey.. i noticed the Hp thing doesn't work either... nobody ever figured it out as far as I know.. and i think I have the lastest CVS...

I have 4 processors. Some people think that if you have 4 2.8Ghz chips that you run at 4x2.8, or about 11.2Ghz. Trust me, I wish it was like that! Instead you have 4 CPus that run at 2.8 Ghz and each one does it's own processing at 2.8 Ghz. The way that threads are written, you cannot run 1 program ...

Well, it didn't do anything for processor usage... but my framerate dropped to 0.4 frames/second.. HEHE! i am smooth like that! eqgame.exe was the only program that used any resources.. and it just sat at 99% the whole time. No effect from the macroquest.exe program...

Hmm. That's what I thought, but I wasn't sure. Thx Megahertz for reinforcing that. And you can only run 1 instance on 1 processor. That's one of the fact of life. Does anyone understand how MQ injects itself into EQ? Does it add code to EQ and become a part of the EQ thread, or does it change EQ cod...

What is the most effective way to take advantage of multiprocessor stuff. I remove as many programs from memory as possible. EQ seems to always assign itself to CPU 0 and you can't change it, but most others you can change the processor that any thread can run on... So what is the best choices? I wa...
