Okay, so I'm a newb to MQ. So, bear with me.

I've downloaded Very Vanilla. Installed it. It's set to run as Admin upon launch. MQ2Login is enabled. I am set to 'Launch Clean'. I created a new profile for the three accounts I wanted to try - and yes, I supplied all the fields. When I launch it: EQ starts, gets to the logon page, and the username is blank and the cursor is on an empty password field. If I supply my password and hit enter, logon fails. The username now displays with '<profile_set>_<server shortname>:<charactername>'. (In this particular case, it appears as 'prime_team_cazic:toon1'. Below is the excert from my mq2autologin.ini. I've searched for other threads, and not found anything similar, so i hope I'm not asking a common question. If I am, sorry in advance.

Rich (BB code):
[Profiles]DefaultEQPath=c:\games\everquest
NumProfiles=2
Profile1=cazic
Profile2=prime_team
[Settings]
UseMQ2Login=1
[prime_team]
EQPath=c:\games\everquest
cazic:toon1_Blob=(Hash)=1
cazic:toon2_Blob=(Hash)=1
cazic:toon3_Blob=(Hash)=1
 
Your profile cannot have an underscore in it. Change it to just 'prime' or something without and underscore and try again.

Report back if you have other issues.

Okay, that seems to have been the issue. Thanks.

Next question - Is it possible to have Autologon throw each session to a specific monitor?
Alternatively - Is it possible to use a separate eq directory per-character (so I can achieve something similar)?

you select the path at the very bottom when you input all the info for the character

Like Akatora suggested, you can control the path. Since the window information is stored in the eqclient.ini you will need multiple paths, or a tool like innerspace from LavishSoft to help with using one-eqclient.ini-file-per-character.

Additionally, you could extend MQ2AutoLogin yourself, or suggest to the dev(s) to add that functionality.

But otherwise, controlling the path is about as much as you can do with MQ2 as it stands now.

Hope that helps.
