Hail, we're RedGuides. We want you to play six (yes, 6!) EverQuest characters at once. We have scripts and a friendly community to help, please join our playstyle and say hello! 👋 -
We've added LLM sections to our Terms & Rules and Resource Rules, for everyone's sanity & in-game safety.Read more
a. Do not replace your voice with an LLM. This goes for your posts and your scripts. Drafting and editing with a tool is fine, but don't take you out of what you share.
b. Do not replace your EQ character's voice with an LLM. We don't want scripts that speak over/ooc,/shoutor other public channels. This has been an unwritten rule that's kept casino scripts off the site for decades, but we're now compelled to make it clear: keep automated communication private.
Why Does RG Review Scripts?
Nearly every LLM-written Lua script we see is making your character do impossible things, and rarely in a way that's beneficial to you. We've seen heavy server hammering,/targetover impossible distances when/nav spawnwould passively accomplish the same thing, a spawn search that fires 20+ times per second, and other pointless actions that are likely annoying GMs.
You are welcome to use LLMs as a tool to structure, draft, and edit your work, but please read critically before hitting/lua run

Question: The VB script will not run!
Answer: Most likely you didn't save the Excel file as an XLSM (macro-enabled workbook). When you open an XLSM file, Excel will prompt you to "Enable Content" at the top of the window. Make sure you click that button or the script won't be able to run.
Question: The script runs but I'm not getting any data in my spreadsheet!
Answer: Make sure the Config folder path in the Setup tab is correct. If you're not sure what it is, open the Redguide launcher, click Very Vanilla, then click Open MQ Folder. Make sure the path you copy contains \config on it. For example:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\VeryVanilla\MacroQuest\Release\config
Question: I have old characters showing up in the spreadsheet that I want to remove. What do I do?
Answer: Your only option is to access your MQ config folder and delete old <charactername>_equipment.ini files.
Don't worry if you accidentally delete one of your current characters' files. It will be recreated the next time you run the /mac.
