Yes I AM working on the test compile.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20161119

Tomorrow or late tonight, I'm doing some other stuff to mq2 as well so it's not a trivial update for me.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20161119

Hell yeah man. Thanks for your work!

Getting the date and time mismatch error with the recent update. Any ideas?
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20161218

Oh ok haha, wasn't sure and I didnt even notice a patch go through


Thanks for the update!
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20161224a

You guys probably already know but TEST was patched last night it looks like.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20161224a

Weird. I got a mismatch error the first time and then I just tried again and it was fine. I still can't get past the char login screen but I think that is an EQ issue.

Test server logins were broken earlier but they have been fixed and I can use the current mq2 compile just fine.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20170107

Test Patched again. Throwing a mismatch.

January 11, 2017
_____________________


*** Items ***

- Increased the spell damage on some pieces of Selrach's armor so there is not a downgrade on the set between it and Cohort's armor.


*** Quests And Events ***

- Maestro of Rancor (Raid) - Damaging Maestro will no longer prevent him from using his mechanics. For example, the accompanists will spawn at the organ even if he was reduced from 100% to 70% health in one tick.
- Innoruuk (Raid) - It is no longer possible to kill the large version of Innoruuk without also killing the Evangelist of Hate first. This will prevent the raid from getting into a state where the untargetable Evangelist of Hate would spawn adds indefinitely.
- Atrebe Sathir (Raid) - Ultimate Siphon Pulse now drains mana and endurance instead of endurance and endurance.
- In the task The Last Grove, The Majestic Water Bucket can now be used in load balanced versions of Scorched Woods.
- The first step of Drogan Toes will no longer suggest that you should get Drogan Toes from the quest giver, Vasyryx Teken`tlar.
- Queen Velazul in the Chardok raid event will now make it very clear when she casts Reflective Scales.
- Removed dozens of bad LDoN adventure definitions that could send you to kill a low level Miragul's Menagerie spider in a high level Balancing Chambers Takish-Hiz dungeon.
- Fixed the hand-in of Drogan toes to Vasyryx in Frontier Mountains.


*** Spells ***

- Improved messaging when a spell that you have cast has been overwritten:
- - Two new filterable chat colors have been created for beneficial and detrimental spells being overwritten.
- - The message 'Your Spellname spell on Target has been overwritten.' replaces the message 'Your Spellname spell has worn off of Target.' when your spell is overwritten by another spell.
- Bard - Increased the damage dealt by all four "Chant" DoT/Debuff lines of spells.
- Bard - Added a cast time and duration to Soothing Psalm of the Sunrise so it will now work like most other songs.


*** Progression Servers ***

- Corrected some Progression-server-only requirements for Planes of Power zones. They now behave as they did from the first time zone access was increased (just after Legacy of Ykesha) until we again lowered their requirements during the Dragons of Norrath era. The 85/15 rule remains unchanged for these zones.
- The Plane of Valor can now be entered at level 55 without other flags. This requirement lowers to level 46 when Dragons of Norrath opens.
- The Halls of Honor requirement of level 62 to enter will now lower to 57 when Dragons of Norrath opens. Previously this would never be lowered on Progression servers.
- The Temple of Marr can now be entered at level 62 without other flags. This requirement now lowers to 57 when Dragons of Norrath opens. Previously there had not been an alternate level requirement for this zone on Progression servers until DoN unlocked it.
- Drunder, the Fortress of Zek can now be entered at level 62 without other flags. This requirement will lower to 57 when Dragons of Norrath opens.
- The Bastion of Thunder can now be entered at level 62 without other flags. This requirement will lower to 57 when Dragons of Norrath opens. Previously this would never be lowered on Progression servers.
- The Tower of Solusek Ro can now be entered at level 57 when Dragons of Norrath opens. Previously there was no alternate level requirement available at any time on Progression servers.
- The Elemental planes (Air, Fire, Water, EarthA and EarthB) can only be entered via flag until Dragons of Norrath opens. At that point any level 60 will be able to enter these zones.


*** Miscellaneous ***

- Made an adjustment to how NPCs on flight paths animate in order to reduce unnecessary pitching as they traverse through the air.
- Updated attack messaging for a number of NPCs races so that some creatures will 'sting, slice, maul, or claw' rather than 'hit'.
- Fixed an issue with fear spells that would often result in a zone crash. Most occurred most notably in the Revisited Plane of Fear.
- Added missing direct address comma to many canned phrases.
- - Added missing comma to set off speaker's tag for say and shout.
- - Corrected several misspellings of Cazic-Thule.
- - Added terminating punctuation to /yell texts.
- Many Planes of Power zones now have load balancing enabled.
- Addressed an issue where fellowship leaders were sometimes randomly changing when a world was restarted.
- Addressed an issue that was causing standard guild halls to not properly spawn.
- Fixed a typo in the faction name Drusella Sathir.


*** UI ***

- Added a velocity label to the stats page of the inventory window which will display your current movement speed.
- Adjusted the formatting of AA ability descriptions to reduce the amount of scrolling necessary to view relevant information for most abilities.
- Changed the display of the 'Attack' statistic to show its component parts: 'Offense' and 'Accuracy':
- - The Offense stat increases your likelihood to deal more damage when you land a melee attack and is countered by your opponent's Mitigation stat.
- - The Accuracy stat increases your likelihood to land a hit on your opponent in melee combat and is countered by your opponent's Evasion stat.
- Changed the display of the 'Armor Class' statistic to show its component parts: 'Mitigation' and 'Evasion':
- - The Mitigation stat increases the likelihood for you to take less damage when you are hit by a melee attack and is countered by your opponent's Offense stat.
- - The Evasion stat increases the likelihood for you to avoid being hit by a melee attack and is countered by your opponent's Accuracy stat.
- - Spell descriptions that report the amount of Armor Class granted by buffs should now report a more accurate value.
- Inspecting a mount, illusion, or familiar item that triggers an additional blessing buff will now list that buff as a 'Blessing' rather than a 'Focus Effect'.
- - Inspecting an item with an activated effect that requires you to be able to equip the item to use will display 'Can Equip.' before the casting time. This label will be highlighted in red if you cannot activate the item you are inspecting.

This was really jarring when I logged in. I guess it's for the best but I have no idea how to determine if my AC is "good" anymore, heh.

I decided not to even log in when the compile mismatch popped up. Ive been leveling another group and my tank has junk gear with very low AC anyway. First time using a warrior so I won't really know what to compare it to I guess.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20170112

New compile out. Looking for update.

Via Twitter:

Eqmule ‏@eqmule 15h hours ago
New MQ2 is out fixed a couple crashes for LIVE and TEST and optimized some stuff
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20170118

Test went down again last night, as soon as I got a chance to login hah!

out of date compile and whatnot.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20170121

Anyone else having issues with test compile? Just tried it and no dice.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20170129

Having some KA and crash related issues with latest compile. I'll send a crash dump to EQMule to see what he thinks.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20170319

I'm getting error 400 bad request on the updater, never experienced this before.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20170614

Just pushed a hotfix for guild stuff about 2 hours after the most recent compile. Bleeeeeeeeeeh
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20170615

Looks like Test was patched this morning. EQmule already has a compile out for it as well.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20170615

Ok so no idea what the heck is going on....
Ran launchpad for test just to make sure I didn't miss any files...completed.

Ran updater for MQ2Test...completed.

When I run eq, I get the warning that MQ2 is out of date.

That's also an error you'd get if you're running Live rather than Test. Continue to the to server select screen to confirm.

There's currently a bug DBG may not know about, where it's impossible to switch the same EQ folder from Live to Test from the launcher.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20170615


actually nm, you're right. Test was patched again this morning, sorry for doubting you.

for everyone else: Servers weren't taken down, so if you haven't ran the launcher yet please don't.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20170615

No worries. Just glad it wasn't just my install, lol.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20170615

I am having the same or similar issue where I have patched the launcher and patched the updater but it is saying the same as deltree. Is it possible there hasn't been an update to macroquest for the patch that didn't take the server down (re Redbots post above) I have a couple of friends who I play with who aren't having the same issue but they haven't run the launcher to check for patches that I am aware of.

Also uninstalled everything and reinstalled and still getting the same injection error

Thank you

Ivorii
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20170615

Same as above, it was working then when I restarted EQ it stopped.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20170615

Just don't patch and you can use mq2, they pushed a new exe but u can login using the older. With patches that are not mandatory I am not prepared to fix them on a Sunday. I'll do it tomorrow. If you have friends that have not patched yet get eqgame and eqmain and eqgraphics dlls etc from them.
