I had an update this morning hit my EQ, and now the compiler wont work. I'm assuming since you don't have the "Updating Macro" on the main page you dont know about it. Its also only 930EST, but now you do, and if there wasn't some kind of update, I'll have to figure out why all my stuff says wrong version number for EQ even though it worked fine all night until the servers came down :(

Thanks!
 
They have been ninja patching all weekend. If there is another patch then the compile won't work until its updated again.
 
I just logged out and back in. No new patch, and MQ still works.

Is there any chance you haven't updated from the Ninja patch on 7/23, and have been logged in since then?
 
The login crashed last night, everyone was disconnected (very strange) and when it was back up we had to update. I cant get mine to work after that happen either.
 
Maybe it was just ragefire idk but the forums have a lot of people talking about being disconnected and not being able to get back online. I was also in a pick zone on ragefire and when I got back online I was put in a different pick # with about an hour rollback. ( happen around 10pm pst )
 
im having issues with include files im nor sure if this is patch related my pc crashed last night when i went to run kissassist its looking for include files i went to add them manually first was ninja loot added then it wanted castroutines cant find that inc

Just unzip the compile like a normal zip file and grab the 2 inc files out of the macro folder and drop them into yours
 
Poster: you need to update to 7-23 version. I had same issue (I play Ragefire). Got disconnected last night, unable to login, had to patch, can't use MQ now getting invalid compile. I checked my compile and it was the 7-22. Just update your compile and you'll be good.
 
No there are only 2 compiles
Test and Live servers. Each has its own compile.
 
Try saving your root INI files and delete the contents of the main MQ folder, then update to the 7-23? *Don't delete your macro folder!*
 
Since disk space is cheap and MQ2 does not take much here is my method of updating MQ2:

  • unzip to new folder (something like mq20150722 or mq20150723 , the previous was mq20150701)
  • copy old INIs by overwriting if necessary the new .inis in /Release, I have 8 .inis that I overwrite every patch
  • copy my /MQ2AdvPath folder (not needed if you do not use MQ2AdvPath)
  • copy all macros from old /Macros to new /Macros BUT I DO NOT overwrite macros (so new KissAssist does not get overwritten, etc)
  • delete old shortcut of MQ2, then send to Desktop the new Macroquest2.exe, ie make shortcut
  • launch Everquest Launcher, patch,exit
  • run WinEQ2(optional)
  • run MQ2
  • use WinEQ2 profiles combined with MQ2AutoLogin plugin to automate logging in

Ideally, I'd put MQ folder under source control but I am too lazy :)

Incidentally I am still running 20150722 compile with no problems since I have seen no need to patch EQ.
 
Does anyone know what they actually changed with that stealth patch? I tried to find update notes the next day but couldn't. Heck, I didn't even update the game until yesterday because it was still letting me log into the servers without patching.
 
ive tried to update and have yet to see any patch stuff, so this compile that they released the 23rd is still working for me... odd

The 23rd is the newest version. The server was stealth patched around like 8pm PST on the 22nd and a global message was sent for everyone to log out and update, but you weren't required to log out or anything.
