Question - MQ2 Newbie

[jmo3465]

I do apologize if this sort of question is asked all the time. Please just direct me to the appropriate post if this question has already been asked ad nauseum. Brand spanking new to MQ2, and it is amazing. But it is a little intimidating from just how many things very vanilla installs right off the hop. My main question is if there is a distinct/easy/direct way to pick apart all of the different aspects of it that i have gotten? anytime i click on plugins or macros on RG Launcher, nothing shows up, but its very clear if i run MQ2 and enter eq i have a ton of features. At the very least I specifically want to remove whatever overlay is happening over my group window. There are these 3 buttons that dont allow me to lick on the 6th member of my group, and only a sliver of the 5th one. I am not much of a boxer yet, so im not interested in those features of 'come to me', 'follow me', 'mimic me' and 3 extra blank buttons above that. I also have this weird thing where on my Main, my beastlord, any time i switch targets when tanking multiple enemies, it auto turns off attack, and turns off my pet attack too. Verrry annoying. The third would be im not sure how to make the auto running feature to a found location work. it always asks me to load mq2nav and generate a mesh, but i dont see that option inside the mq2 nav i already have loaded.
Any help with all this or any of these independently would be very much appreciated, thank you!

Welcome!

I highly recommend that you watch the videos that Sic made regarding the launcher.

The launcher does not show the things that are included in Very Vanilla, but you can find those (and some useful tutorials) here.

The come to me buttons can be removed, right click on the party window and click on the "show come to me button" options to remove them. You can add them back quickly the same way if you decide to run EQBC and utilize them. I recommend looking this up and making the decision yourself.

The autotarget and autoattack thing may be mq2melee. Feel free to run

/plugin mq2melee unload

in game to turn this off.

To load mq2nav you simply need to type /plugin mq2nav load, see here for nav meshes

Also! I recommend joining the discord for these questions, the responses will be much faster.

Can you not simply drag the group window from the bottom to make it slightly larger? This way you can click the lower two rooms but still have the command buttons. They only lay over the top of those character because the window isn’t large enough.

Whenever you get around to messing with KissAssist, make sure you read the settings page over and over. There’s lots of good information there.

Mq2melee turns off attack when you switch target. In most cases will force you to retarget the previous target.

MQ2TargetInfo adds the buttons. I personally unload it, but as others have mention you can resize the group window.

Meshes can be obtained from the meshupdater tool in your mq2 release folder. Use it to download all the meshes.
