I'm curious if anyone is using this and what you think of it.

Please give some feedback if you are using it.

Thanks,
Def

Hello there,

Wow - its been a while, huh? Dont know if anyone can remember me, but here i am again ;-)

I've been looking at the piece of software u wrote, stateful, and its quite amusing! I've implemented the loop-function - and its quite useful for tradeskillin' now!

Im not a C++ guy, so i properly did it in a very weird way! :-P Could be fun if you would finish up the stuff u started there - cus' it has potential... Not MQ2 potential - but still...!

It made me kill both Captain Gaer and Captain Ogof in Commonlands before the spawnrate were lowered. Nice to be able to keep a camp when you are in bed ;-)

Then a bit off topic - are there any software outthere - yet - that is similar to MQ? Just for EQ2....?

Just curious - i would never use it! I promise! Or... Well, maybe a little :oops:

Nice software indeed :)
Ive been looking for a way to send a command in a custom chat channel and trigger an action on my other boxed t00n/s.

For instance - harvesting your own resources sux bollocks @$$ and when there's none on the broker it'd be nice to be able to run with all 3 chars at once which would take all resources from the node alot faster than having one char do it.

I was trying to write something like that up with vb script but then I saw this piece of software - any way to do it yet?

It would be like running with 1 char with the 2 others on auto follow and when I start to harvest i push a button say something like /1 Harvesting
and the other chars should be parsing their logs for this and then target me and push the mining/foresting/gathering/trapping buttons.

Would be great if there was a way to start up EQ2 from remote using this tool and with a chosen character.

back and ready to rewrite

Post by stateful » Sat May 14, 2005 2:31 pm

I'm pretty much done with WoW, the honor system made me hate the game. So, I'm back playing EQ2 and have read all of the comments here and have been thinking alot about REQ2 and what I can do with it. I'm gonna completly rewrite the thing. Hopefully in about a week I'll have a new version finished.

Planned:
-fix problem with server crashing
-implement menus and a toolbar
-make everything savable and configurable
Something like Tools|Options
-make editable user defined macro hotkeys
-triggered macro execution based on incoming log chat text
i.e. if (text = "assist me") { /target x; /assist}

Regarding starting the game remotely:
Would be great if there was a way to start up EQ2 from remote using this tool and with a chosen character.
Before I released this, I had that option in there and I took it out. It is entirely possible, you'd have to create a script to do the mouse move commands and keyboard commands though. If you start EQ2, it pops up the disclaimer, you have to click I Accept, you can't just hit enter, or tab|enter, it really wants that click. Another reason I took it out is, it would turn REQ2 into 'remote computer control' vice "remote eq2 control". Currently EQ2 has to be running and REQ2 has to be able to focus the EQ2 window, otherwise the server won't even start. The app still requires a successful window focus before it sends any keyboard commands so I guess I'll put it back in there. I just talked myself into it.

If anyone wants to make some pretty 32x32 and 16x16 icons for a toolbar, that would rock.

Stay tuned.
