I too have tried the following and still am getting the incorrect client version error:

Followed this word for word.

1. download the zip from the downloads page
2. unzip it in folder other than my EQ folder
3. go to the newly created folder and DoubleClick the Macroquest.dsw file
4. It will open up in Visual studio.
5. Go to the menu called Build and click on it
6. On that menu go to Set Active Configuration click on it...
7. Set the active configuration to macroquest - Win32 Release and press ok
8. Go to Build menu again and click it.
9 Select Build macroquest.exe
10 you will get it compiled, then exit Visual studio
11. Copy MacroQuest.ini.dist into MacroQuest.ini
12. doubleclick macroquest.exe
13. Start everquest.

As soon as I start EQ I get the following error message:

Incorrect Client Version: Tue Sep 09 01:47:47 2003

Here is a copy of my .ini

[MacroQuest]
MacroPath=.\Macros
LogPath=.\Logs
DebugSpewToFile=0
FilterSkills=0
FilterTarget=0
FilterMoney=0
FilterFood=0
FilterMacro=0
FilterEncumber=0

[Filter Names]

[Telnet Server]
Enabled=0
LocalOnly=0
Port=0
Welcome=MacroQuest telnet server
Password=macroquest

[Aliases]
/gmlist=/who all gm
/mana=/echo Current Mana: $char(mana,cur) -- Max Mana: $char(mana,max)
/hp=/echo Current Health: $char(hp,cur) -- Max Health: $char(hp,max)
/sell=/macro sellitem

I copied this from MacroQuest.ini.dist into my MacroQuest.ini. I have tried using the .ini straight from the zip file and the one that thegnome used in his Sept 06 post (even tried using the Override = 1 and setting the date to match the date on the error message)and am still having no luck. I did make sure to run the EQ patch so I am using the current version of eqgame.exe. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

The ini you need in this case is eqgame.ini from the release folder. Not the Macroquest.ini file.

Thanks! Your a genius! ( or I am an idiot :))
so i can log in ok now but when I type:

/macro siwarrior.mac

or any file name for that matter I am told that the file cannot be opened, any idea on this one?

Type /listmacros and see what comes up.

You should use the sln(soultion) file, this is the file that says what will happen with the files.

Its much easier to do a batch release build for eqlib and macroquest. MQtext is broken, you will often encounter errors with the debug versions of eqlib and macroquest.
