Pretty sure MQ2HUD is part of the default zip.

Most of the other plugins are tucked away under the VIP plugin section.

MQ2MoveUtils
MQ2Melee
MQ2Cast
MQ2Exchange
MQ2Twist

MQ2BCS
MQ2NetBots
MQ2XpTracker

The plugins I wrote are here as well.
MQ2GearScore
MQ2RaidUtils
MQ2CpuLoad

Lots of good stuff just wish the code was all gathered up in one spot!

any clue how to get the hud to work? /plugin mq2hud ect dosent work ive tried toggleing f10-11 and nothing says its loaded but well...its not lol

You need to put stuff into your HUD ini file. MQ2 does not have any defaults.
You could try using the HUD ini from your "premium" compile, but its possible they have displays for things you dont have compiled into your MQ2 version.

wiki is your friend

is there anyway to get the stuff i use to use in my mq2hud folder? i am use to useing the one that is basicly a default like three-p-o said. and i just looked for my old compile and i cant find it must of deleted it :) it had aa exp/lvl exp nameds up stuff like that

and i did look at the wiki but not all that much info ive tried messing with the .ini file but not to sure what to put

[fandret]

ok so a update i got last tell aa/exp showing and time. does anyone know a .ini line that would show last exp earned say i killed a mob it gave me 50% of a aa xx more mobs till done. i thought it use to show that but ofc i could be wrong and thanks everyone alot for your help

You would need the mq2etrack plugin, but that's VIP.

Make a donation to one of the developers, ieatacid, eqmule, etc. and send them a PM letting them know you made a donation. They can then elevate you to VIP status so you can see that section of the site.

[fandret]

how long does vip status stay active btw

[MacQ]

Mine has been active for many years, but I (like many VIP members) throw the devs a little "beer money" from time to time. The devs put in countless hours to keep MQ2 alive and well, it's not a career for them (e.g., they are not "living" of the few donations they receive).

[fandret]

understood i think ill do that. that shouldent be as costly as the last one i used..... :) thanks guys

[MacQ]

I'm sure the devs will appreciate a new VIP member, and you will certainly find a wealth of information in the VIP forums because you are coming to the "birthplace" of MQ2, but you are going to need to invest quite a bit of time reading, reading, and more reading. Yes, there are folks who will give advice if you ask, but here is a general rule of thumb. After well over ten years of posts in thousands and thousands of threads, almost everything has been asked and answered at one time or another in a post, which means, lot's of reading on your part. Good luck and welcome aboard.

[fandret]

thank you and i will defintly be sticking around :) and yea i don't mind reading i just suck at searching for stuff :) any chance i could get a list of what plugins are available as a vip i suppose ill look for that in the meantime :)

[warlock45]

don't think there is a list of available plugins anyplace. Some are outdated, some are well maintained. Some still work but are buried in the forums, heh.

http://www.macroquest2.com/wiki/index.p ... ry:Plugins

is a decent starting place. The wiki in general is an excellent place to start.

I find bookmarking this to be very helpful.
