I'm sure it's all due to the last patch, but my cleric stands in place and does nothing. My bard just spams "Songs not present - suspending twist. /twist to resume". I did a fresh install of mq2 and got the same results.

Just a heads up that things are still a little busted.
 
More weirdness... Mage casting self buffs on pet instead of self, also attempting to cast mount on pet. Pull not working either, targets mob but does not cast pull spell.
 
I crash while loading all my characters with isboxer, I can't even make it into the game with MQ2 running. It happens when I use tilda to switch between character clients while on the first screen where you click Accept/Decline. I can reproduce it 100% of the time.
 
I read this EQ update did quite a lot of technical stuff in the back end. I was expecting MQ2 might have a lot of trouble with all those changes. DBG talked about changing various tech and how Vista and older is not even supported in EQ anymore. Hopefully it wont be too hard for MQ2 and KA to fix.
 
working on a fix its not your macros, its core mq2. PSPELLBUFF has the wrong size for those who want to know the exact problem. ETA couple hours or less.

Thanks for all the work you are putting in Mule.
 
On the test version, I'm getting non-stop spammage "You receive as your split" while just standing in pok .. (upon initial login)

i unloaded a number of plugins to see what would cause it to stop, and it ended up being 'mq2nav' that when unloaded, stopped it, and when reloaded, started it right back up..

Let me know if you want any further debug info..
 
Yes, Eqmules cleric ini is cycling through MQ2 commands...my KA mage wont resummon a pet when he gets rezzed or if I restart KA on him. Havent checked the ini's figured it was the patch.

My bards have the song not present, and my warrior gets a message he cant equip a bow for pulling because of race but i can manually equip it, its just the swap from range items, either item gets the race message.

Enchanter is also trying to cast transfixing stare over and over.

Just things Ive noticed just now after just logging in.
 
Really appreciate the fixes so far!

This compile is a lot better, my dps toons all seems to be working ok. None of my healers are healing still though, seems like most buffs are working but my clerics are refusing to cast their group buffs that have the me tag on them (ex. Buff2=Hand of Virtue|Me, cleric wont cast hand of virtue). Tried relogging, completely eliminating MQ2 and rebuilding, can't get them casting.
 
Heals don't work at all.

My cleric has the complete opposite problem when it comes to buffing and will cast group buffs 6 times (once for each toon).
 
Thanks for the fixes thus far!

Issues with KA i'm noticing thus far.

Constant rebuffing self buffs and self buffs trying to buff group memebers, and not load proper spell sets.
 
Downloaded and installed the update - healer still wont heal, but mages nuke again at least. Mages seem to have an issue with self buffs though, they keep trying to cast them on everyone.
 
Even with the latest patch still getting the issues mentioned above (no healing/repeated buffing). In addition Me.XTHaterCount and Me.XTAggroCount always return 0.
 
Also, ran the newest update, still having the same issues as before.


Looks like Sham/Druid are not healing either, nor is enchanter buffing members correctly.

Noticed macros are blackend out, which someone else mentioned, but this is all after the most recent patch.
 
I also tried to fix that with a |me which also did not fix the issue. When I did attempt that fix, my spell set wasn't loading properly either. I took the |me off, and it would continue to cast after each pull, but it would load my spell set. Put |me on, and boom no spell loaded, but no longer casting buff at all.
 
TargetType in the spell struct is wrong I'm working on a fix. This is a MQ2 issue not your macros. No eta yet. Thanks for the report, I'll try to be quick.
 
Appreciate all the help!

Curious, any reason why the macros on the hotbars are blacked out? It's some on a few toons, and some on others, but not all the same across all accounts.

Thanks again EQMule!
 
I'm still having issues, shaman will not heal.

Thanks for all your help EQMule!
 
EQMule is currently working on a Fix. Probably going to take some time. Should only try to report new bugs in the thread to help out.
 
Last update fixed most all the issues i was having. Noticed that ranger is trying to use self buffs on other chars - never did that before..

- - - Updated - - -

I lied - that is not the only issue... cleric and sham are still not healing like they are supposed to.

So just out of curiosity, what did they change so radically that macros are getting hit so hard?

This latest patch was pretty huge, not just in terms of content but how much they changed in terms of technology and back end stuff. The game had a huge downtime and then after finally coming back up, it went down again for some emergency patch. Some of the things from the patch notes:

- EverQuest will no longer run on Windows Vista or older operating systems. Please refer to the minimum system requirements on our website.
- Made a number of improvements to hotbars. See the UI section below for details.
- Performed additional upgrades to both the client and server to utilize more modern hardware and operating system features.
- - EverQuest will no longer run on Windows Vista or older operating systems.
- - Please refer to the minimum system requirements on our website.

*** UI ***

- Updated /useitem to accept item names:
- - Specifying the full name of an item will now allow you to activate it directly without having to ensure the item is in a specific inventory slot.
- - This functionality now allows items in your key rings to be activated with the /useitem command.
- - Example: /useitem corrupted hammer of consternation

- Made the following improvements to item hotkeys:
- - Item hotkeys will now display the total count of items in your inventory, rather than the count of the first stack.
- - Items will now display the total number of charges for items that use them.
- - Item hotkeys for items that are no longer in your inventory will now display the icon/name of the missing item rather than 'Not Found'.
- - Pre-existing item hotkeys will need to be remade to get these updates.

I still crash when clicking on a client's screen while the Accept/Decline dialogue is up.

GpD5zL9.png

Able to reproduce the crash 100% of the time. As long as MQ2 is loaded whenever I click on any part of the screen it'll crash the client with no crash report.

Only crashes me on the Accept/Decline screen though - once I am at the character select/server select screen i don't crash anymore by switching screens


Edit: It happens to me too while on any screen before Server select. It's only happening on this one computer though so I am assuming it's my install of MQ2 or something like that. Will complain more when I know more.


Able to reproduce it on two other computers, sent EQmule a crash dump on skype

Most issues seem fixed. Seems to be trying to double buff for some reason. For example my DS will wear off my tank and I will get a MQ2 message Buffing MA >> NAME << Shield of Lava and then after it casts I get a second cast with the message Buffing >>Shield of Lava<< NAME

Both times to the same character.
 
Most issues fixed, but getting strange behavior - NOTE: The bad behavior is ALSO happing on the single toon of my box army that doesn't have kissassist loaded, hence why I don't think the problem lies inside of that.

When trying to manually navigate while MQ2 is loaded for a while (2 hours+) the forward and backward keypresses are not working properly (ie - having to press W or S dozens of times to move forward or backward, but holding down D or A moves the toon sideways as expected normally). Using kissassist INI files that worked fine before this update, no change in those. I'd post them if they would help, but I doubt they would. reloading with /mac kissassist seems to clear things out for a bit but things bug out for a while on toons. (yes I've run the updater as of the time of this posting.)

/TL;DR - shits still broke yall. I'll post anything you need to help except my login info. Unemployed DevOP waiting for requests for specific information to continue. :P
 
I was using mq2xptracker and when I unloaded it the problem fixed it's self. If you have that loaded try unloading it.
 
Still having issues while casting on mounts:

He just chain interrupts himself and ends up not casting shit. Works find when off a mount
