I downloaded and compile dthe new MQ, when i click the mq.exe the icon appears in my system tray...but when i start to run eq, i do not get the macroquest is active message in the display box, so i try a /who all npc and nothing happens...my macroquest is not working properly....does it hav eto installed in a certain directory? or do certain files need to be changed(besides the obvious offsets)? When i click on the exe the icon appears in the system tray for like 5 seconds then it vanishes?????
oh yeah and i have used the SEARCH FEATURE ALL DAY

Update your offsets in EQGAME.INI and all should be well in the world.

ok im using the most recent offsets and im still not getting the "macroquest is active" display in the text box GUYS PLEASE HELP??

since you are one of the few that responded i will talk to u and tell u step by step what i did
1) downloaded the cvs from the link on this site says irclatest..or something close
2)made a folder in my d drive called latest and extracted the zip file to that
3)since eqlib folder is seperate than macroquest folder when extracted i put the eqlib folder insidethe macroquest folder
4)at command i typed D:cd\latest\macroquest\eqlib
5)once in that directory i typed NMAKE it compiled some stuff some eror messages though
6)typed cd ... to get back to the original dir that had a make file in it
7) typed nmake it compiled no errors
*) now i have an macroquest.exe in ny latest folder, when i click on it it appears in the sysytem tary but ingame i get NO macroquest is active message, and yes i have the latest offsets...HELPPPPPPPPP

This is one problem. Do not move anything around. The organization in the ZIP is how it needs to be for the makefile, etc to work correctly. Just make a directory (\macroquest), unzip the irc-latest.zip into it (creating all of the pretty subdirectories), and then follow the other directions.

What I end up doing:
1. cd \macroquest\eqlib
2. call vcvars32.bat
3. nmake
4. cd ..
5. nmake

At this point, there should be a sparkly new macroquest.exe in the Release directory.
Make sure the offsets are up-to-date and Run it.
