Problem - Crash on logging in after latest update

[Whodis]

I updated with Redfetch this morning and experienced crashes on all of my toons as soon as they attempted to enter the world. They never quite made it in - the crash was during the loading screen.

I thought it might be something in my ingame.cfg so I emptied that and tried again, but I still crashed.

I have reverted to version 3590 (that I know worked and all is OK). I didn't try intervening versions and I don't know if it's a plugin or something else. This was my crash message:

---------------------------
EverQuest Crash Detected
---------------------------
MacroQuest caught a crash:

Process ID: 85696
Version: 3.1.1.3604
Location: RaiseException+0 (C:\WINDOWS\System32\KERNELBASE.dll+00000000000CA780)

CrashID: 401a2644-9206-4f0b-b55b-3a237120d3e8

You can either:
* [RETRY] Continue execution and hope for the best.
* [CANCEL] Write a crash dump and terminate EverQuest.

EDIT: I just noticed this thread - https://www.redguides.com/community/threads/mqnearby.94455/post-660162 - it might be MQNearby (though I still crashed when I removed loading it from ingame.cfg ... but I guess it may still be loading).

open your macroquest.ini in the config folder and ensure the plugin mqnearby is not set mqnearby=1

I am having the same issue now, after updating. Is the fix above, with the macroquest.ini suggestion? (NEVERMIND, the above suggestion fixed my issue as well. Thank you )***UPDATING incase others have same issue.

Thank you. Yes, that worked.

Edit: In case anyone is wondering, MQNearby is fixed now, so this particular issue no longer exists.
