sample mac and general instructions

Post by toolisuber » Thu Aug 06, 2015 12:51 pm

going to put important stuff here
this already has a tweaking guide for windows and eq

soon this is going to be sample macros and outlines of macros
this will describe/explain writing macros and things about mq2
with macro examples

this will prolly not be the most perfect instructions but can start you writing
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
this is not even the start of thispost
when writing macros its alot easier to write down steps of what you are trying to do
this helps you figure out all these complex steps one at a time rather than trying to spam ur brain w/code

sometimes you may have to outline ur macros or code
sometimes you may have to study the outlines of ur macros or code
you eventually become one with code and memorize how these things work

other peoples examples can help
thoroughly testing all possibilities of pieces of code your trying to do, can help
e.g. testing things you can do with tlo's or datatypes
e.g. using a for loop to get large amounts of testing done
be careful with ur computer and have fun learning

not sure about c++ be careful there if ur comp starts overheating or smelling like burnt computer chips

adding /delay 2 to ur macros make them use alot less cpu and ram
/delay 2 is 2 milliseconds
/delay 2s is 2 seconds
mq2 is limited to like 40 calculations or whatever per second or something
#turbo 40 in ur top of macro

example of whats been distracting me code-wise
fixedzone.zip
this is an example of workingspells
im hoping this works
this is c++ ive been doing

reserved instructions....

im eventually gonna work on a modded, offline eqserver thing
alot of work has to be done, then not sure about the gnu terms, prolly rewriting it all
preferably on an offline computer that cant be compromised and all that
im hoping things work out

those laptops nowadays have to have the wifi chip removed, wireless card removed,
and Bluetooth chip? removed and all that is a pain and takes expertise...and even then
some computers/laptops may break if you take out the wifi chip or Bluetooth chip
im thinking satellites can write to hard drives? there used to be older satellites that couldn't get through water well
there used to be a specific mathematical calculation per inch of water
but those days are far past common satellites can prolly go to the bottom of the ocean
even those i7 models anything like that prolly has expressgate whether they advertise it or not
its possible cheap chinese knockoffs don't but im not an expert on hardware chips yet
i think hardcoding computers is illegal I wonder if that will change
havinglikemaybey 5 or 6 hardcoded computers monitoring a server or whatever... like the 0's and 1's don't switcho change
not sure on the state of forging electrical current and overwriting or pushing it to devices

i am not liable for any of this, you do these things at your own risk
don't even read this any further ---- you take full responsibility for anything bad that happens or can happen because of these changes to your computer

-disabling the windows firewall or user account control is your choice-
-in this world, criminal organizations exist and im not responsible if some-
-hacker finds you and whatever horrible situation could occur-
-although it should be mentioned that justice occurs at some point in time-
-disabling the windows firewall or user account control is your choice-
-i am not liable for this, you do these things at your own risk-

-you should know that whenever you are connecting to the internet or online

-you are giving your location

-and possibly your identity,computer history, and computers files

-to the person you connected to.... there is no real anonymity on the internet
-your first connection when you activate windows, is Microsoft
-then you end up going to various websites
-im not liable for what websites you go to, or who those people who run those websites are
-it can be dangerous to go to something that is affiliated with any kind of organized crime
-you don't know who your connecting to sometimes, and there is no honor among thieves

not sure what i forgot here so far!~ ill figure it out this post will improve

gonna put instructions for playing alot of characters on a cheap computer
im at dual core 2.4ghz laptop with broken screen and 8gb ram
im able to run 18 characters at one time with no client/server modifications

this post will have instuctions to make ur computer run the fastest
never got to play yet with the full 18, or tried titanium yet

with 12 lvl65s - i was able to pwn (using my macros)-
vulak of tov and enriki icingwinds of the bot towers
i think it was possible to kill shei vinitras if akheva ruins trap was fixed
never got a chance to attempt ssra mobs < emp or emp himself
im definitely thinking i coulda done a couple ssra mobs maybey not emp
with 18 i might try emp of ssra, aerin`dar of pov, and GoD mob w/the staff
there is that other staff from sewers for monks, that ones good too 45/30

PLEASE DO NOT BLOW UP UR COMPUTER WATCH UR CPU/RAMS IN TASK MANAGER

WATCH FOR RAM/CPU SPIKES IF UR SMART ENOUGH~
A MISTAKE WILL FREEZE UR COMPUTER OR IT WILL JUST TURN OFF
WINDOWS 8 HANDLES SMALL MISTAKES MEDIUM MISTAKES WELL

************************************************************
i am not liable for this, do so at your own risk

PLEASE DO NOT OPEN MEMORY.INI OR ATTEMPT TO CHANGE MEMORY.INI

SOME OF THE ENTRIES IN MEMORY.INI ARE THE REVERSE OF COMMON SENSE

THINKING YOU WILL MAKE UR COMPUTER FASTER YOU WILL INCREASE CPU 20% PER SESSION x12 ANDEXPLODE
YOU WILL BLOW UP UR COMPUTER

i am not liable for this, do so at your own risk

--IF YOU TURN OFF UR COMPUTER OR LOSE POWER DURING/WHILE
--WHILE ITS INSTALLING WINDOWS -- YOU WILL CORRUPT UR BIOS
--NEVER INTERFERE WITH WINDOWS INSTALLATIONS INSTALLING

--important instructions for installing bios are later in the post

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

to make ur computer run the fastest you want to ~
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
disable the superfetch service and undo readyboost drives
disable the superfetch service in windows services

on windows 8 you can get to the services folder through task manager
ctrl alt del
task manager -> services tab -> open services ( at bottom of screen )

at the properties of each service, you can disable the services from starting



usually this has something to do with administrator, computer services,
advanced computer services, or wherever it is hidden in other forms of windows

if you have made your usb drive a readyboost drive
remove any sort of readyboost device and setting

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
set your page file better and best performance, and best performance background

if you have 20.5gigs of free disk space ->
start -> control panel ->system and security -> system
advanced system settings -> advanced tab -> performance - settings

click adjust for best performance while we are here

advanced tab

click best performance for background services while we are here
this is very important because your bot characters will not operate properly...unless you have best performance for background services

click virtual memory - change

you want to set your page file to 204800 make sure custom size is clicked
and enter 204800 in both entry fields
click set
you want your page file a set size so you do not get blue screen errors

20.5 gigs seemed to work the best for me
102400 wasn't too bad, but 20.5 was the best
a little over 20.5 caused slowdown for me
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
disable services

--disable various other services especially from programs you download
--such as antivirus
--such as /windows updates /windows firewall /windows defender

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
turn off system restore and possibly the volume shadow copying service

delete your restore points, you should have cds or removable media w/windows

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
turn off write cache buffer flushing

im on a laptop and there is a laptop battery attached, so always turn this off
this setting, i think double copies everything on ur hard drive
we would want that off with 12->18 characters going at once prolly
we want that hard drive at top shape for page file usage
this is not my fault - make sure u have a windows disk and ur internet drivers
ive never experienced any problems with this erasing anything so

im guessing this is a horrible part of windows and probably completely useless
at worst im thinking, you are on a desktop, there is lightning storms, you lose power, and lose the last 10 seconds of work you did with a file

there is a learn more button that is prolly to scare you or something im not clicking that yet

im going to desktop computer test this next 2 months prolly
you should be straight turning this off
make sure u have ur windows disks or removable media with windows
make sure u have ur Ethernet /wireless drivers whatever so u can get on the internet again and get ur computers drivers after a fresh install

walking to a library and getting past security programs to get drivers
or
paying some computer store dude to
let you get ur drivers onto a removable drive is lame and not fun

sitting there with no computer cause u fried ur os and don't have discs is not fun definately not fun

to remove the write cache buffer flushing ~

file explorer -> c:\
properties of c:\
hardware tab

select ur hard drive
click properties

click change settings
policies tab
turn on the ->Turn off Windows write cache buff flushing on this device

then you should be good

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
change ur video card drivers properties

there are too many graphics cards for me to explain things
i have onboard intel graphics and
-uh you gotta turn application optimal mode off - it is a lie when concerning eq
-other things you want to turn off, or make faster/gear towards performance
-this stuff should be pretty much common sense and its all not so hard to learn

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
change ur power settings in control panel, you want things for best performance

you have to micro manage these things, you don't want ur hard disk sleeping
or anything crazy while ur trying to play
you want things set to full performance.....
typing 0 makes things never happen
typing 100 is something you gotta end up doing in there too

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
disable windows firewall

you may want to disable windows firewall in ur control panel

i am not liable for this, do so at your own risk

make sure you open the advanced view of windows firewall and make sure
it is completely disabled

i am not liable for this, do so at your own risk
if ppl are gonna hack you they are gonna hack you, regardless if you have
any of this needless crap these computers aren't hard coded
disabling these settings may make it easier for you to be hacked *MAYBEY*
but hackers are professionals and this stuff does not stop them only slightly
slows them down and they have already accounted for firewall etc
hacking you is like 2 clicks regardless

i am not liable for this, do so at your own risk
we wont get into the abilities of private companies with satellites
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
disable windows update

disable windows update in ur control panel

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
disable user account control

i am not liable for this, do so at your own risk

disable user account control in ur control panel

yet again user account control would not even slow a hacker down slightly unless they were extremely new to hacking

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
wineq

for wineq if you are using underfoot client, we turn off eqplaynice

not sure about titanium client, think its good for titanium client haven't checked

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
disable ur graphics

disable ur wood elf/ dark elf whatever disable all graphics in everquest options

you want sound turned off, use 800 by 600 in options
and change the resolution in game to 1024 by 768 for both ur folders

texture caching and texture compression on,
rest of the stuff is common sense
- dynamic lights off and stuff, graphics as low as possible texture quality low

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
edit your everquest/everquest/resources folder ->GlobalLoad.txt and GlobalLoad_chr.txt

make sure you have 2 everquest directories 1 for mainchar 1 for everyone else
make sure you backup your original GlobalLoad.txt somewhere
this is a GlobalLoad.txt that can be used for a main character

Code: Select all

1,1,TFFTC,GlobalSKE_chr2,Loading Froglok
1,1,TFFFE,Global_obj,Loading Character Equipment Files
1,1,TFTFE,GEquip,Loading Character Equipment Files
2,0,TFFFE,GEquip2,Loading Character Equipment Files

3,1,TFFFC,Global_chr,Loading Characters
4,0,TFFFC,Global2_chr,Loading Global Items and Equipment
4,0,TFFFC,Global3_chr,Loading Global Items and Equipment
this is a bare minimum GlobalLoad.txt used for everyone else

Code: Select all

1,1,TFFFE,Global_obj,Loading Character Equipment Files
1,1,TFTFE,GEquip,Loading Character Equipment Files
3,1,TFFFC,Global_chr,Loading Characters

make sure ur original GlobalLoad_chr.txt is backed up
this is GlobalLoad_chr.txt i use

Code: Select all

1
liz,cazicthule_chr
you may notice your graphics have been turned off -
iksars are now humans, and ur aug pool is a little bag
you will still have pok port stones and way faster loadtime x18 or w/e
lots less ram usage making boxing alot of chars possible

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
edit your eqclient.ini

there is maybey like 60 entries you should edit in your eqclient.ini
turn things off / false/ 0
this section will be finished sometime
make sure particledensity=0 that turns off particles on weapons and stuff

uf sample of eqclient -may work on titanium prolly
THIS IS NOT A FULL THING this is an example of [default] and later,[options]

you may want log on or off... not worth having 18 chars logging all text at all times
on ur bot characters in ur bot eq folder you might want to
make it say Log=FALSE if you want logs off -- probably on ur bot characters
not sure what else, just doing this fast

if you uh set some of the loadarmor=false you will get lag bigtime
eqclient loads graphics all funny and weird and stuff its not performance geared
towards running 18-64 chars
its not that easy to rewrite the eqclient

making sure you have ur drivers and windows install media and bios flasher

--make sure you have ur windows media on a removable drive or actual cd
--make sure you have ur bios flash removable drive in case of something going wrong
--make sure you have atleast your internet drivers so you can get online

-----------------------------------------------------------------
--there is a windows 7 usb tool you can use to put a windows cd on a removable
--windows 7 usb tool works with win7, 8, 8.1 - not sure about others
--you definately want your windows cds or removable in case of mistakes or whatever
-----------------------------------------------------------------
--
--really bad viruses ruin your boot sector maybey bios
--these viruses are very rare you prolly don't have to worry
--you can find ur bios drivers on ur manufacturers website
----on ur desktop comp, ur copy of ur bios is stored in chips separately
----on ur desktop comp, you just access the motherboard and pull the jumper
----the jumper is a little square thing that connects 2 prongs together, you
----would MAKE SURE UR COMP IS OFF, and pull this square thing off
----you would then wait like 5 seconds and put it back connecting the 2 prongs
----this breaks the electrical current and tells comp to reflash the desktop comps bios
----alot of laptops apparently do not have a jumper u can just pull, use usb drive and reflash utility
--ur bios should be stored on ur motherboard
--installing the bios is called flashing the bios
--you would make a bios flash usb drive w/ a utility from manufacturers website
--
--IF YOU TURN OFF UR COMPUTER OR LOSE POWER DURING/WHILE
--WHILE ITS INSTALLING WINDOWS -- YOU WILL CORRUPT UR BIOS
--NEVER INTERFERE WITH WINDOWS INSTALLATIONS INSTALLING
--
-----------------------------------------------------------------

--you can get your drivers for your motherboard/laptop on manufacturers site
--the internet driver is the most important...
--you can get your other drivers after a fresh install if you have internet drivers
--win7 win8 has most drivers included with the operating system
--winxp does not vista does not
--you always want to make sure u have ur internet drivers
--still make sure u have ur internet drivers on a removable drive

--test and make sure ur internet driver installs and works or whatever
--if it installs at all, it should work
--make sure ur driver is for win8 if u have win8 or win7 if you have win7
--if it installs at all, it should work

--e.g. hps go to hp website, dells go to dell website, toshiba go to Toshiba website
--you can find ur motherboards name/number on the motherboard or box it came in
--plz do not try to open ur laptop i still break the keyboards even sometimes
--the laptops final screws are underneath the keyboard usually
--the laptop power strip is very delicate and rigged to break if you are not careful
--the keyboard strip is very delicate and rigged to break if you are not careful
--you have to be very careful and gentle with these laptop parts
--please do not open ur laptop ever ---- there is no reason to ever
--the ram should be easily accessible at the underside of the laptop
--there are specific types of ram... and speeds... like ddr2 1333mhz or dd3 1066mhz
--make sure u get ram that your computer can use
--make sure you are getting laptop ram or desktop ram, desktop ram is huge
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
remove trustedinstaller

there is a folder in windows called servicing, it contains
microsofts trustedinstaller

caught this program running in background 2weeks to 2months after a fresh install
this program, was using like 40% disk usage one day as I was playing eq
traced it back one day to the windows/servicing directory

im not sure if this is some type of skynet spyware installer or what but it
was using all those resources and i had every update option turned off-
all windows update turned off,
windows firewall off,
volume shadow copy turned off,
this will explain how to remove trustedinstaller
---------------------------------------------------------
you must first make yourself the owner of
windows directory and servicing directory
on my computer this involved going thru to permissions stuff
and making \Users USERPC(ismycompname) the OWNER of windows and servicing
then you must make yourself or all of the owners to have full control of
windows directory and servicing directory

then you must delete the servicing directory to the best of your ability
3 files will probably be left over... mysterious xml files

BEFORE you do any of this, ONCE TRUSTEDINSTALLER IS DESTROYED
YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GET VS2010Express
YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO GET VS2013Express for Desktop
YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DO DIRECTX INSTALL MAYBEY
the installer will not work and you will not be able to update these things
INSTALL THESE IMPORTANT THINGS BEFORE KILLING TRUSTEDINSTALLER

this is best done offline immediately~
Make SURE you have cds or removable media w/windows
Make SURE u have ur drivers INTERNET/video/audio on a removabledrive

--after a fresh install of windows
--after directx has been downloaded and installed
--after vs has been downloaded and installed - register whenever
--(you may want to keep task manager open to scare the trustedinstaller)
---and before the trustedinstaller has victimized/nested itself with you

reserved instructions part 2
this will be finished one day or something

MAKE SURE U BACKUP UR FILES

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
edit weather settings

there is also weather.ini, sky.ini, precipitation.ini
there is also weather_beta.ini, sky_beta.ini

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
turn off sounds

we make sure sounds are turned off in everything game client, client.ini
and we add a file called NO_SOUND.TXT or NOSOUND.TXT
to some directory within the eq folder, its like 1 of 3 things
its prolly the main directory

we make this NO_SOUND.TXT file read only in the NO_SOUND.TXT file properties

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
make sure logs on bot character folder are read only

we can also make our logs readonly so they are not written to- if ur into that on ur bot characters or something

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
turn filters on/off ingame

in ur options menu alt o, or thru window selector -> options you can find filters
liek where u turn badwordfilter on/off

you could also disable your focus effect chat spew ingame filters
when u have chat events it reads every line and does things
less lines being read is better but don't get too crazy the game has to be fun too
youll prolly end up running 12 -> 64 characters so alot less lines
you prolly don't want to disable logs or whatever

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
there may be other things not sure cant remember that's most of them tho

superfetch and write cache buffer flushing and globalload.txt are the most important

trustedinstaller removal is very important too rlly
