Is there something to check what characters you have on what accounts? Gave daybreak/everquest my email and got a few more accounts than what I was expecting. I have played/quit several times since 2003 so doesn't surprise me. But I have no clue what toons I have on what servers. The EQ launcher is not being friendly and making me close completely out vs just dropping to server select.
 
The only thing I could suggest is opening up the folder where EQ is stored and looking at the UI_toonname_servername.ini files. Provided it's not a fresh install anyway. If it's a fresh install, then you get to server hop on each account and make notes of what you find.
 
since they shut down eqplayers years ago there isn't a reliable way to easily check for characters on your accounts.
Unfortunately you will need to log in using each account and check each server (which IS annoying ... been there ... done that ...)

If you don't want to take notes in the process, you could just log in each character and then check the EQ directory for the UI_<charname>_<servername>.ini files.
 
Put this in your zoned.cfg file
log in to each toon
It creates a file "MyChars.ini" that you can import into excel (use "^" as the delimiter and import as CSV / TEXT)

Log in each toon on each account and...
BOOM you've got a complete database on all toons that gets updated each time you log in, zone or log out.

Toon name, level, gender, race, class, how much plat, what guild they're in, login name, server and are they GOLD, SILVER or FREE
Great for deciding who to put in a group when you want to make a new team.

[CODE lang="ini" title="Toon Database"]

/echo ----- Writing Character information -----

/ini "MyChars.ini" "^Name^=^Level^Gender^Race^Class^Plat on Me^Plat in Bank^AA Points^Guild^Station Name^Server^Acct Type^" "${Me.Name}^" "^${Me.Level}^${Me.Gender}^${Me.Race}^${Me.Class}^${Me.Platinum}^${Me.PlatinumBank}^${Me.AAPointsTotal}^${Me.Guild}^${MacroQuest.LoginName}^${MacroQuest.Server}^${Me.Subscription}"

[/CODE]

Wow. I have been "using" the random piles of notes that you loose technique. I need to try this.
 
I use Excel from office 2016 and it makes it too easy.
One click and it updates directly from the MyChars.ini file.
