EQ closing when MQ2 (v5131) & (v5184) is running after I select a character. Does not close EQ when MQ2 is not running. I think DBG is adding in MQ2 detection to kill EQ.

That’s unlikely since we bring them half their business. Also if that really was the case there would be 500 people pming me and spamming slack.
Uncheck all plugins in the ini except mq2chatwnd and mq2ic then report back.

Thanks,
Commenting out the plugins worked. Not sure why EQ started closing after the latest patches of EQ and MQ2

Dabrudda - I had the same thing happening to me.
Several months ago I stopped using MQ2XPTracker. Removed the DLL from the distribution but I left in MQ2XPTracker=1 in the macroquest.ini plugin section.
Prior to this patch cycle, MQ silently failed to load it and was happy to ignore it.
With this patch cycle, you get past the character selection and just as the player hits the world ... poof ... crash to desktop.
Should be pretty easy to track down which plugin is causing you a problem by commenting them out and adding back one at a time.
Or hope EqMule is bored and tracks down the changes.

You can find out now by adding them back one by one.
