What is MacroQuest2?

MacroQuest2 is free open source software that makes EverQuest more functional, bringing unique and modern MMORPG features to the classic game.

Is this allowed?
Very Vanilla only works on servers that allow multi-boxing, and does not contain any active hacks or cheats. While Daybreak doesn't officially endorse any software but their own, we've found that players who follow these two guidelines have never faced an issue:

• Stay at your keyboard.
• Be considerate of other players.

What are some fun things I can do with Very Vanilla?
That's a big topic! Let's start with some simple functions:

• Automatically log in all of your characters with one click.
• Read the beginner's guide to the KissAssist macro, so you can begin a multi-boxing group.
• Need to find someone in the zone? Type, /target playername and then /face. This also works for NPC’s. /target King Xorbb
• Get a notification whenever a rare spawn is up, check out MQ2SpawnMaster for more info.
• Run a macro from the macro section.
• Run a plugin from the plugin section.
• Make KissAssist handle all your clickies and buffs, so you can focus on playing. After setting up KissAssist, just target yourself and type /mac kissassist manual and then /buffson and you'll have full control over everything, but your toon will do all your clickies and buffs for you.

Troubleshooting
