yup, mule pushed the stuff 1h23m ago, and red is/was already building the test build

eta "any time now" or a soon :tm:

Is there anyway I could have known that myself? Or I have to rely on the pros? Lol. I check this page or red launcher for when it’s updated.

 

[brainiac]

you can get real time updates in discord usually

Patched Very Vanilla for test and loaded a crew with no issues. Started killing and then hit M for map. It crashed the toon I was on when I hit M. I tried another and it crashed as well. Now any toon that I tried M for map with will not load and crashes. Other toons will load fine. I mean to say that I got out of everything and reloaded Very Vanilla - the two toons that I tried M for map with will not load even though I restarted Very Vanilla.

 

[Jascen]

I'm having the same issue.

My main char was able to open the map for Maiden's Eye, but once I clicked the height filter it crashed. Same issue with my other toons as well. Now the toons won't load, they just keep crashing.

Edit: I'm able to load the toons if I shut down MQ2.

 

[Stone]

Thanks Jascen - I was able to load the problem toon outside of MQ2 and therefore it likely reset the .INI file. I will try loading up Very Vanilla again and try not to hit M - lol.

 

[Jascen]

Just to clarify, if MQ is running the toons still crash. The only way right now to log them in is to shut down MQ.

 

[Stone]

After logging in one of the problem toons outside of MQ2 (got right into the game and then camped), I was then able to log the toon in through MQ2.

are you using a custom ui?

eq patched these for test, and likely means they are the same on beta

EQUI_DragItems.xml
EQUI_ItemDisplay.xml
EQUI_LootWnd.xml
EQUI_MapViewWnd.xml

so if you have an out dated matpviewnd it might be the issue

 

[Stone]

Thanks Sic. No custom UI, I did patch EQ but I will recheck things. Got all toons back into the game under Very Vanilla after logging the problem ones in outside of MQ2 -

mule says that mq2map is broken atm. probably an offset/struct issue.

so either gotta wait for that to get fixed, or you can unload mq2map

/plugin mq2map unload

 

[Stone]

Thank you very much - waiting is fine for a retired old coot like me - lol

what am i missing here?

is this your autologin profile set to use that directory for your eqgame that is incorrect?

it says there "windows cannot find 'c:\users\public\daybreak game company\installed\games\everquest\eqgame.exe'

 

[519helvis]

it seems that way i just dont get why the folder isnt being found i try to change it to my eq directory in the launcher settings and it wont let me

 

[519helvis]

today i re-subbed to redguides to box on test and for some reason im missing something. im hoping its something simple hehe

 

[519helvis]

is this your autologin profile set to use that directory for your eqgame that is incorrect?

yes it seems its looking for this directory ive tried several things and nothing seems to work. im not a tech savvy person so any help is appreciated

would double check you're not having any files get locked by antivirus or defender or somesuch.

this is a bit more advanced, but you also might have a compatlayer issue.

Are you able to launch eq from that directory location without mq2? if not check below

Spoiler

Need to check if windows added something to your compat layer? Check these locations in your registry for anything eq/mq2 related and delete.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers
and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers

 

[519helvis]

worked just fine earlier today, got home from some errands and am getting this now:


causes a date and time error when trying to load characters, im assuming something is being worked on?

with this update does mq2 need to patch as well because keep getting out of date issues

 

[Sic]

that is because today was a test patch. so until mq2 is patched, test will be down.

like every other time that eq patches

OK was curious because mq2 never said patch day

 

[Elgone2010]

DOH! Sorry, I was on page 1 and did not see the button to page forward. I'm normally not this bad. :P

Not sure what does what, but when you do the Activate path off of map it does not do auto run to that zone, but if you click the find button and select zone line it will run to that zone. Was working fine before patch

*Sic move to correct spot once you read this please lol

Sounds like you're referring to MQ2EasyFind. Are you saying that it's no longer working with the latest test build?

 

[ASmith50]

Yes sir, easy find is not working with the latest test build.
