Just a quick question, does MacroQuest2 work with Winter's Roar or just EverQuest Live, thanks for your time.

the only relevant google hit is a broken page... im gonna guess its an emulated server.

I didn't think it would work with it , and yes it is an emulated server http://www.wintersroar.com that's the website address if you want to check it out. Again, thanks for you time

it might actually, if you use older, prepatch versions.

Really!? I'll have to try that, is there an older version download on this site, or do I have to look on google or something!?

Well you see what you need to do is find the older macroquest and then... make the plugin to go with it if you know how to do c++ then you should be fine

Don't expect to have it working with eqemu unless you know someone on the server that's using it and is willing to share.

Looks like you would need the zip file released on January 28, 2004.

If someone has a backup of it maybe you can get it off them. Otherwise you might be able to download the files from cvs at the time it was checked in - approx 10th february 2004.

See revision 1.14 of eqgame.h

i think he is looking for a version of macroquest2 that is compatable with eqw ver. 0.5.3 "i think" so if you know how to get one that is compatable with that just post here

To get it to work:

1. Download a CVS client, preferably a command line one since its less complicated to use.

2. run it and do this command:

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/macroquest login

just hit enter when it asks for password.

3. next do this:

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/macroquest co -D 2004-02-10 macroquest2

which will download all the source as of Feb. 10, 2004

4. Follow normal compile instructions for MacroQuest2 then edit the eqgame.ini that it dumps into the Release folder and make sure ClientOverride is set to 1.

5. Run MacroQuest2 and then WRPatcher and it will work fine.

Questions? Im beholdthepenguin on WR forums as well, and Luillend on WR itself.

*cheers*

seems to be working pretty good with that version, i have a question though, how much trouble would it be to upgrade to datavars?

If you know how to code, it wouldn't be too terribly hard ... you'd mainly need the proper eqgame.h and EQData.h (from your working version) and the rest of the source from the current version. Then you'd have to make sure that everything referenced in those files has what you need in the rest of the source.

If you don't know how to code, it could be a bother.
