MQ not working with WinEQ

Post by riddlmn » Wed Mar 24, 2010 9:12 pm

Am I using a bad version of MQ? It works fine otherwise, just not when I run WinEQ2.

Any suggestions?

I don't use MQ2 without WinEQ2 ever.

I use WinEQ2 and MQ2 all the time.

What I would suggest is removing all non-vanilla plugin's for MQ2.

Also you really need to post what is not working. With out telling us how it fails its impossible to help.

While WinEQ2 is loaded, I never get the box that loads up and says MQ is running. Commands don't work.

However, when I run EQ normally - I see the box. Commands work.

Also, I'm very new to MQ2 - what are non-vanilla plugins?

Are you using vista or win7, with UAC on? Are you running wineq2 as administrator? Sounds like you are not. Running the station launcher as admin you are likely doing. Either way, hah - run wineq2 as administrator.

I agree this sounds more like you need to run everything as admin
