    Problem - MQ2 crashes a lot when code goes wrong...

    Success. I have figured it out. It came after spending about 2 more hours (bringing the grand total damn year 10 hours on this one.) The problem ended up being a line in which I pass a portion of the string which I've whittled down to the duration of the spell, to an int variable. The 'whittled...

    Problem - What's wrong with this code?

    This is actual code. This macro works like this: My toons have spellbook and buffing lines written out, and I use the following format when I declare settings in the .ini files. /declare strMyBuff1 string outer Spirit of Wolf_AllMelee_60_Spell When I call the buffing routine, this toon...

    Problem - What's wrong with this code?

    I'm getting consistent crashes and I'm completely unable to pinpoint what's going on. It's incredibly frustrating that it's crashing instead of just throwing macro errors to the output window now. It makes it very difficult to debug. Would someone mind skimming this and telling me whether I'm...

    Problem - MQ2 crashes a lot when code goes wrong...

    I'm going to resurrect this a bit. Has anyone encountered issues with code running too fast? It feels like I've had some instances where inconsistently I'll get crashes, at relatively similar spots in code, but not exactly the same, sometimes one line off. I've slowly started adding a bit of...

    Question - Faster way to debug?

    That sounds great, thanks Mask.

    Question - Faster way to debug?

    Anyone willing to point me in the direction of some materials on getting started with Visual Studio and macro files for MQ2? I'd love to begin debugging my macros, not sure where to begin.

    Question - Faster way to debug?

    Hey all, Any time something goes wrong, the ultimate debug move for me is to start adding echo lines in all over the place to trace the flow of the macros through each function etc. Before I start turning this into a proper debugging function that I can turn off and on, is there something built...

    Problem - MQ2 crashes a lot when code goes wrong...

    Thanks guys, I have a feeling this is it. These macros never caused me issues in the past and I hazard to guess suddenly they are. As I said, I NEVER received crashes before, always errors in the chat log but that was it. I bet I'm using incorrect TLO structure as a result of something that's...

    Problem - MQ2 crashes a lot when code goes wrong...

    The last time I played was roughly 1 year ago. At that time, a full on MQ2/Everquest crash was almost unheard of for me. If a macro attempted to use a plugin that wasn't loaded, or simply ran into bad code, it would spit out an error in the MQ2 window, and that was it. The worst case scenario...

    Question - Box group advice

    Thanks guys, few follow ups. 1. Are zerkers really that much more dps than monks? I always thought they were comparable. I had him in here strictly for a utility dps to help me single pull in the future, though I suppose if I'm bringing a chanter, maybe not needed? 2. As I often get interrupted...

    Problem - Manually starting EQBCS?

    Is everyone else out there manually starting EQBCS for broadcasting commands? I used to manually start it, but if you run through the getting started guide on this site, for the Very Vanilla compile at least it never mentions manually running it. Is something supposed to be starting it...

    Question - Box group advice

    Hey all, I'm looking for some advice for my 6 box setup. Currently, the group is: SK* MNK* BST MAG* DRU ENC The classes I'm not willing to let go, are SK, MNK, MAG. I'm struggling mostly with the following conflicts. - Can druid provide enough good group healing for my 6 box, through the...

    Vanilla - Very Vanilla Compile 20160318

    Re: Very Vanilla Compile 20160316 The plugin is a custom one I use for my toons. I don't use any of the supplied macros with the compile. [Plugins] mq2aaspend=0 mq2advpath=0 mq2autoaccept=0 mq2autocamp=0 mq2autoforage=0 mq2autologin=0 mq2autosize=0 mq2bandolier=1 mq2bardswap=0 mq2bucles=0...
