MQSEQ you and the people in your circles may be able to do it, but the vast majority cannot. That's why people want a precompiled MySEQ, that why they loved the preconpiled MQ and we have this problem, that's why FH is so popular now.
I've never touched a C++ compiler in my life, My bud was compiling for me at work and I would take it home. MQ2 came out with the Auth.h files so I wasn't able to simply have him compile at work and me run it home. It took me 4 hours to umm "obtain" an appropriate compiler and 10 minutes to have MQ2 up and running with 0 experience compiling.

I don't think it's so much that n00bs can't compile it's that the people that are willing to spend 10-15 minutes to read directions and follow through are for the most part not the people looking for a quick plat/exp hand out/ exploit.

:D

If you are using WinXP you could have run the MQ2Auth to get the two files then run nmake to do the compile. You should not need the full blown development environment to compile it.

mq2auth

Post by operat0r » Mon Jan 12, 2004 5:07 pm

I think source and mq2auth is fine deture of noobs like my self it took me " after instaling VB " about 2 trys to get MQ up and running then with genbot it was wasy to start writing scripts and THAT is where the simple cutoff would be just dont have a macrodepot great if they can find a forum with scripts on it but writeing your own with MQ2 has never been easyer I dont even PLAY MQ and I can cut and paste my way into something I ( my friend ) wants :shock:

Just want to say MQ has been great thing to show to my EQ buddys and setting it up on there computer is not so easy ... I dont even have EQ 5cds and 900 clicks later you can get a MQ box up with all the bells and wisles

I don't think getting rid of the Macro Depot is an altogether good idea. Then it comes down to a small circle of people handing out macros, and then those getting leaked, and so on, and so on.. and more notoriety..

Then it stops being a community and becomes a file-trading system.. :-\

If I had noticed the post date prior, I wouldn't have posted.

Now I feel like bad cheese.
