Trouble Shooting

Post by Airvz » Tue Nov 18, 2003 4:49 pm

I'm having problems starting up MQ:
1. Installing and Running MacroQuest

Install

Unzip MacroQuest somewhere (other than your EQ directory).
Windows 9x/ME users will have to install ActivePerl
For new installations, copy the file macroquest.ini.dist to macroquest.ini
To run MacroQuest simply double click on MacroQuest.exe (it will appear in the system tray) and start EverQuest.When there is a patch, check to see if eqgame.exe is updated. If it is then you need to get new offsets, and possibly a new version of MacroQuest. You can get these on the MacroQuest homepage on the "Quick Links" bar at the top of the page.

Note: MacroQuest is currently partially broken on the New UI. It is recommended that you use the old UI for now.

K so I do that and there is no Macroquest.exe

Look at the date of the thread you're quoting

The instructions you quoted are at least 9 months old, if not older. They haven't been accurate since last March/April.

Use the search feature, or spend a little time reading the threads on these boards. You'll learn everything you need to know on how to get MQ compiled and up and running.
