I am currently using hyperfish.mac and now cannot get it to turn off. I have tried /mac hyperfish unload
 
/end wont stop someone from dragging your toons around with a mob...youve got to purge it I believe. There's a write up on it from not to long ago.

all my macros for turning off my chars has both /end and /plugin mq2melee unload in it for just that reason.

I find that any time my characters are doing an embarrasingly botty action it's with MQ2 melee so I just have it unload it when I turn them off - kissassist reloads it when I turn it on anyway so
 
The movement in MQ2Melee is controlled by MQ2moveutils, I believe, right? In that case, a "/melee off" command won't stop combat sticking or action mid-fight. I think there's an equivalent '/stick off" or something that would have the effect you want without completely unloading MQ2Melee.

Maybe just the nuclear options of /unload seems easiest? Don't know, never tried.

I bet there is, old habits die hard in this case - it's what my friend who taught me MQ2 did in his hotkeys.

I still use /mac end instead of just /end too just cause that's the way I was originally taught to end my macros =P
 
If yur toons are stuck following another command would be /afollow off ive knoticed it will stay on till that is typed now.
 
Rich (BB code):
/mqp on (or just /end)
/play off
/stick off
/melee off
/afollow off

Put it in a hotkey and name it stop all or something

I wouldn't do "/mac end" cause that just tries to start a macro named "end.mac" and since you probably don't have a macro named end.mac it fails and thus ends the running one, so while it technically "works" it's not a good practice...
 
/mqpause seems to toggle my macros running/not running without unloading them. If you are just trying to stop some action. then you can unload reload or just hit it again to run again
 
Rich (BB code):
/melee stickrange=0
/melee stickbreak=1
/melee save

If a macro isn't trying to run your characters to attack, they won't move. No reason to unload or turn off mq2melee when you can simply adjust your ini to behave the way you wish.

That being said, I do have a hotkey for ending my macros:
Rich (BB code):
/bca //end
/bca //twist off
 
Rich (BB code):
/melee stickrange=0 /melee stickbreak=1 /melee save

Can I ask what ini file is this to be added to because I don't seem to have a mq2melee.ini just the mq2melee.dll

Also ive gone into the Combat.ini and there a bit there saying useStick=on I have tried turning this to
useStick=off and saving the ini file but it seems to do nothing ime still glued to the mob.

MQ2melee gets added to your servername_charactername.ini file located in your base MQ folder (usually called the 'release' folder). Lots of plugins use this file to save your plugin settings. When you type /melee save it automatically saves all your settings to that file and allows you to adjust them. Each time MQ2 loads, it'll use THOSE settings instead of the default settings.
