You are missing the step where you have to press the thingy on the page where that other thing is. Clear?

Start Here:

http://macroquest2.com/phpBB2/viewforum.php?f=36

Read it once, then twice, then three times, and maybe even more...

Also, people here really don't mind helping after you've helped yourself AND posted some good error messages... Have your mom read your post and see if she understands it, then ask yourself if we'd even have a clue what your trying to say...

Wow... just... wow..
Everytime i try to compile MQ it gets to the part where i have to batch build and when it is almost done it says error somthin... and beside it , it says something was not part of C;/Macroquest-2.zip or whatever
With such a detailed description how come this hasnt been answered to this persons satisfaction? "The thing by the thing says something about part of a thing, or whatever... so like.. what the hell is wrong with this thing?" I'm thinking twice about having children, maybe the world is getting too dumb.

getting?

Hate everyone equally; and let the few people who show intelligence earn your respect from there.

As a part of the "newbie-crowd" i only can say "read the istructions" kill the old MQ2Folder (save your Macros ;) ... ) and i done this 3 times last night on 3 PC - NO PROBLEM at all ... GREAT work!!!!! I think its time to donate some $ again - my last is 2 years ago ;)

RTFM is your friend :)

PS: a little bit more details on errors would help ;)

Going by the vague description, I'd say you're attempting to compile right away from the zip file without actually unzipping first :roll:

I should start a website.

www.mq2fordummies.com
But to avoid copyright infringments, I should probally make it...
www.mq2forscriptkiddies.com

or maybe even a more generic site...
www.rtfm.org
