• You've discovered RedGuides 📕 an EverQuest multi-boxing community 🛡️🧙🗡️. We want you to play several EQ characters at once, come join us and say hello! 👋
  • There was an optional eq update. Guest, DO NOT PATCH EQ or you'll have to wait for the next MQ update (no ETA). You can play without the patch by using patchme or autologin (preferred). If you've already patched EQ you're out of luck, unless you find someone to share the older eqgame.exe (don't ask here).

Caveats (known issues)
  • Plugin is not available for EMU (Live and Test only)
  • EQ and MQ2 say mob is LOS, but isn't, tried to avoid this by locations
  • /multiline issue with /rgstart in MQ2Grind.ini (work around is to replace /rgstart with /macro rgmercs\RGMERC.mac)
  • EQ BUG where when exiting instance group members end up in separate zones, added brute force re-add to mission routine
  • Timing issue where group member may get red text about instance not available yet (proper fix coming soon)
FAQ
  • Are there specific meshes I should use?
  • Grind thinks I'm in combat, but I'm not! Why is this happening?
    • This is either due to you being debuffed or you have the EQ PlayerWnd hidden.
  • My group decided to camp out?!
    • If you are using KissAssist, you must set "CampOnDeath" = 0 in your configuration of KissAssist for all toons in your group.
  • My group doesn't stop to med, why?
  • When I start MQ2Grind my chat windows disappear!
    • This happens when your chat window, or other windows are not in a "Locked" state (EQ UI setting)
  • What does 'real hard' mean in the list of Grinds? (/grind list)
    • Simply that your standard group content geared toons may struggle with a single healer. If your tank is raid geared you'll probably be good with a single healer. For 'real hard' I take both a SHM and a CLR with me.
  • What kind of group do I need to use this?
    • I would recommend: a tank, healer, crowd control, and DPS.
    • During months of testing, I've used lots of combinations:
      • WAR, SHM, BST, BRD, BER, BER
      • WAR, CLR, BST, BRD, BER, BER
      • WAR, SHM, CLR, ENC, BER, BER
      • WAR, ENC, CLR, BER, BER, power level toon (naked/did nothing)
        • All of the above, I've traded out WAR for SK (auto grant level) as well. When dragging a PLee through, they can die.
  • What does MQ2Grind work with?
    • It's been tested for months by using CWTN Class based plugins (MQ2War, MQ2EsKay), KissAssist (11 and 12), and RGMercs, and Entropy
  • I started grind but don't move anywhere once inside? (ex. Goblins and Fools)
    • Make sure you have the updated mesh MQMesh.com
    • For MQ "next" meshs go in your Resources->MQ2Nav folder
  • Does MQ2Grind automatically recover from deaths?
    • No, this is up to Class Plugins and or Macros you chose to run your group with
    • Wipes happen just as if you were playing without the plugin, it is recommended to monitor your success (and failures)
  • My group member didn't zone out via Fellowship because they are not in the same one
    • The plugin, assumes that your group is in the same Fellowship for zone out
  • It doesn't work on EMU server
    • Correct as EMU doesn't have ToV expansion
  • Can I change how to pull mobs
    • Absolutely! You can get real clever in the INI file, I've included some examples. You can also include ${If[..],..,.} if you wanted. The plugin will perform what ever you put in the configuration. Share what you come up with, I'm sure others will benefit.
  • Can I message you in Discord?
    • Yes, by all means. Please understand that I also like playing the game, have a day job, and a family. I'll do my very best to get back to you as soon as possible. (Discord: hytiek#2341 or Red Guides #general_chat channel)
It is recommended to configure your MQ2Nav with the following settings:
  • Settings
    • Automatically click nearby doors (ENABLED)
      • Ignore scripted doors (ENABLED)
