Using ISXEQ

[NuttsThatKlank]

is there any kind of instructions on using ISXEQ? I got it compiled, and far as I can figure you load all the ISXEQ*.dll extensions. But when I type any command in the chat window it crashes EQ to desktop. Even a simple command such as /sit.

I could't find any information of how to use it after compiling. Such as what dlls get copied where in the innerspace directory. I just copied all dlls to the exensions folder. Am I missing something?


Thanks

No you're not missing anything, assuming you're using the latest zip

I am using the latest zip. I am having 1 strange problem with the compile. I have to compile the isxeq.dll first then I can can compile the others. If I batch compile them all at once I get an error that it can't find ISXEQ.lib for all the others

Well, that's not really strange that's just a matter of life The other plugins dont have their dependencies set, so ISXEQ.dll isnt compiled first.

Anyway, onetimehero pointed out the error, which is in ISXEQCommandAPI.cpp. You need to add the red part:

Code: Select all

class CCommandHook 
{ 
public: 
	VOID Detour(PSPAWNINFO pChar, PCHAR szFullLine) 
	{ 
		//DebugSpew("CCommandHook::Detour(%s)",szFullLine);

		// apply one alias
		char FullCommand[8192];
		strcpy(FullCommand,szFullLine);
		szFullLine=FullCommand;

		char *pSpace=strchr(FullCommand,' ');
		if (pSpace)
			*pSpace=0;

		PISXEQALIAS pAlias=FindISXEQAlias(FullCommand);
[color=red]		if (pAlias)[/color]
			StrReplaceSection(FullCommand,strlen(FullCommand),pAlias->Replacement);

		if (pSpace)
			*pSpace=' ';


		if (szFullLine[0]=='#')
		{
			pISInterface->ExecuteCommand(&szFullLine[1]);
			strcpy(szLastCommand,szFullLine);
		}

This is fixed for the next zip update, let me know if you have more problems

Edit: NM, Lax beat me to it.

I am trying to use ISXEQ. After about 3 hours, i still don't have it to the point where i can start writing scripts. I downloaded and installed IS. I setup the game link to start EQ. I installed the SDK and built the MacroQuest project for ISXEQ. I copied the DLLs to the \games\InnerSpace\Extensions directory. But, now i am stuck.

I press the ` key to get a console, and i can type commands like "echo hello". But, "echo ${Me.Level} does not work. Also, when i look at item details in the game, i don't get the extended detail information that MQ2 provides. I think the ISXEQ dll is not being loaded ("module -list" returns nothing). I tried the command "module -require isxeq" to load the dll, but that does not work.

I don't see any instructions on how to load the ISXEQ dll so that i have EQ TLOs that can be accessed from the console (like ${Target}). Also, how do i get the extended item information to show up when i right click on items?

I assume there is some simple step to load the ISXEQ dll so that i get MQ2 functionality.

You have to load the extensions with 'ext <name>' command. so 'ext isxeq' would probably be what you need. I found the UI by Red, and it's nice. I'll link if I find it somewhere. One click to load all the extensions at once.
Here it is. ui -load isxeq after you get these... then its just clicking buttons to load.

The ismods site has them available in zip for download under UI's

Just an FYI with my UI for ISXEQ, it was last updated in like december of '05, so no warranties. Plus it was unfinished in a couple parts. But as Kroak poins out, the loading/unloading of extensions should function fine.

I did notice the crash if you click the X to close the window. lol. It IS something to be careful with, but it works.
