Status of MQ (WORKING) [Updated: Wed Nov 03]

Check your macroquest.ini file, make sure you don't have macro filtering turned on.

See this one a lot. People run out of their compile (Release) directory, not realizing that a zip or CVS of the sourcecode overwrites your ini file with the stock settings.

I just downloaded the zip, compiled and everything I tried worked for me, great job all around.

/face works fine for me

Have you compiled the latest source? Yes, thats my common question for the people that have issues, but it seems to be on target a good many times.

Yes I have compiled with todays latest zip and offsets I have just recently started using it again so are there other settings that I need to make elsewhere? Like I said /face fast works and who things work just not /face and /macro doesnt seem to do anything
I dont get red text saying unknown or couldnt find macro and they end fine with /endmacro just dont do anything while running

I also am having trouble getting MQ to work. Clean compile with VS.net, macro filtering not turned on. Macroquest loads with no problems but absolutely none of the functions work. Anyone out there figured this one out yet?

lost_man, there are a number of people with exactly the problem ypu describe (myself included). See this thread: http://macroquest2.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=3358

The only common thread so far appears to be that we are all using VS.Net.

I have a seemingly different and much more fun problem, where I can't even run MQ without crashing. It seems to inject itself (i can't kill mq without eqgame crashing), but then never activates, and as soon as I zone, I crash to desktop. None of the features work.

OS:win98
Complier: VS6

For the folks having trouble, are you all using win 98 or me?

cvs/zip compile works fine for me on xp/me.

I am a newbie but it is clear not is all well with MQ...

I am using the new UI (surely the readme file is out of date suggesting to use the old UI still?) along with EQWIN. I also have XP Pro...

Finditem does not work.
Mouseto does not work reliably (often takes mouse to wrong spot on screen).
Face does not work (often points in wrong direction).

I'll try using EQ without EQW see if it makes a difference.

EDIT:
OK just ignore this stuff until I have more than 1 bit of knowledge about MQ...

/finditem works.
/mouseto works.
/face works.

Neener, neener.

Care to be more specific?

Should the map feature be working (mobs/pcs showing up on the map)? If so I'll go figure out what I'm doing wrong, I just can't tell if it "should" be working.

Everything else is fine. Thanks for any info guys.

Edit: I should not type while lounging on the couch. Tends to lead to very bad typing that needs to be fixed so you can actully read what I'm writing.

It works fine, have you /mapfiltered lately?

Lane · Post by **Lane** » Mon Oct 20, 2003 11:41 pm

Hmm... That sucks. I was almost hoping it was broke. I did use /mapfilter and the correct things were on. Guess I'll have to check some other things now.

Thanks for the fast reply.

OK now I have 2 bits of knowledge I'll be more specific. Maybe I still don't know how it is supposed to work...

/finditem "springwood club" opens the correct bag but does not select the item. Instead it returns $getlasterror = FIND_PACKNOTOPEN.

Repeating the command selects the item but does not close the pack (returns NULL error).

According to readme.html finditem

"Opens pack if needed, clicks it, and closes pack again if it was closed."

That doesn't seem to be doing as it is supposed to? Either that or 2 bits of knowledge still isn't enough...

EDIT: OK so I understand why the second command does not close the pack but why won't the first command select the item?
