Problem - MQ2 not working?

[iamyou]

why isn't mq2 working for everquest anymore? its been more than a day since patch... i don't wanna waste my subscription for no reason.

MQ was available on patch day. It's macroquest live in the launcher.

Its working perfectly. Did you update the launcher ? Select Macroquest - live (or whereever you like to play) and install or reinstall MQ2. I did a complete Reinstall since i was also not using MQnext yet.

It is OFFICIAL! MacroQuest is the version of MacroQuest that we offer here at RedGuides.

You will see this with "MacroQuest - Live" in the RG Launcher.

Please, check out this link: >>> Functions & Features Demo + Migration to the new MacroQuest<<<

There are a couple of small, yet important changes with MacroQuest:
1. mq2map click is Control+Shift+Click
2. new easyfind self travel is Control+Click (reminder in find window title bar)
3. new easyfind group travel is Control+Shift+Click
4. If you selected a destination in your zone guide and want to activate it you /travelto activate
5. /yes and /no are now aliases
6. your ini configuation files (like for kissassist) now reside in your "Config" folder and not your "Macro" folder

Is it ok to use Windows 7?

I’m getting this error:

api-win-core-path-l1-1-0.dll

The program can’t start because this file is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.

Edit: More details - 64 bit client is working without MQ2 running.

You are in for a rough time if you want to keep Windows 7.

I held out for as long as I could on my EQ machines. This patch I bit the bullet and moved every computer to Windows 10.

As much as I hate Windows 10, it was a surprisingly painless upgrade on my old Ivy Bridge and Haswell era computers with Windows 7.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10 -> download Download Tool -> Run -> Install (not download ISO) -> Turn Off Most Telemetry crap -> Licensed Win 10

I kept all the old programs and everything. Generally I install fresh Windows but this upgrade actually worked.

Remember to read https://www.redguides.com/community/threads/mq-next-migration-functions-and-features-oh-my.79369/ - use /mqsettings to set up FPS limiter, it rocks!

Make an update, or troubleshoot, checklist of things to do on patch days or when you are having issues. Make sure you are on Macroquest - Live, check your macroquest directory address is correct and that all plugins and macros are updated.
