MQ2BerZerker

Plugin - MQ2BerZerker (2 Viewers) 3.1.52471.11

Hey guys I just got the app and tried using it but had some issues.

The first one I'm not sure is an actual issue was when enabled it scrolled hundreds of lines of text in the mq2 windows nonstop.

The second is that I set /zerk mode 5 for pullertank and my zerker ran around cancelling mq2nav and went back to camp about 20 times and then sat at camp doing nothing indefinitely with a msg in the berzerker window saying it was waiting for valid targets.

Anyone know what's going on?
well what is your mq2 hundreds lines of text? I have a suspision you have a macro that is loading mq2melee and the plugin is saying that it is going to unload it, and then your macro reloads it - if this is the case you should stop your macro.
 
I think it might be related to the issue I was seeing with all my plugins when it comes to pulling. For some reason, now when it comes to pulling, all the plugin in puller mode will ignore mobs In certain area within pull radius. Once all the mobs in the radius that the plugin is able to pull, it’ll sit and spam resting while waiting for mobs even though there are mobs still accessible witin pulling radius. If I fire up kissassist and set the same pulling radius, kissassist is able to mop up the rest of the mobs Within that radius.

this seems to only happen in some zones, most prominent in velk lab in the tunnels and castle area.

The spam sounds like he might be also running kissassist with mq2melee loaded set to true.

Sounds like maybe you have IHCmercs running alongside the plugin? Type /endmac and see if you still have the problem.
 
Thanks guys I unloaded MQ2Melee. Still having issues with pullertank mode where the zerker just sits there doing nothing. Changing the pull radius, camp radius, puller stats, roles, etc still doesn't fix.

Also, is there a way to turn off the use of Open Wound like you can turn off Blood Fury? My healers using KA, MQ2Heal, and MQ2Cleric all continuously heal my 2 zerkers even during med breaks.

well you would want to adjust your nonma heal to match whatever value the zerkers are stuck at - until you get your appropriate lvl spells, that value can be as low as like 60

as far as the pulling goes I would check your groupwatch settings.

I haven't seen this issue that mikey02 keeps talking about, but i don't recommend using kiss to pull - we're trying to verify this pulling issue, but i haven't been able to recreate it yet
 
This is using radius 400, zradius 50. After awhile in puller mode, some of the mobs in the area are pulled while others are left alone. The mobs just to the NW of the groups shows mesh have a nav path to it yet the pluggin won't see the mobs. Same for other mobs liter around within camp radius. The plugin won't even travel into the tunnel leading to kobold camp now whereas before it did. Nothing was changed to mesh and this all happened when I updated all my pluggins to the latest version with the new window UI.

This issue is only occurring in certain zone, while it's fine in other.

Using KA to pull is not supported with the plugins. If you are having issues with the pulling then finding out what the issue is and getting it resolved would be the only way to move forward. Please stop telling others to use a macro to do things the plugin should do.
 
sent them a copy of plugins with a debug pull toggle. Mobs are reporting that they don't have a nav path to them. Nothing I can do about that I'm afraid. :-x
 
Having an issue. MQ2BerZerker was working perfect yesterday.
Now today it loads fine (no errors) and my grouped zerk (new 85 Heroic toon just started yesterday) assists correctly on first mob, then won't engage on anything after.
I have to reload Kissassist after every fight for him to engage. He is assisting a MAG pet in group, which I have assigned as MAIN TANK and MAIN ASSIST.
I have updated MQ2 and reinstalled MQ2BerZerker a few times to no avail. I am also using /zerk mode Assist, which seems to load fine.

I did notice a "looping" issue where it appears MQ2 is getting bombarded with commands once he engages (after unloading and reloading Kissassist).

Now I am getting the attached error message and he won't do anything until I completely log out and back in again.

See attached screenshot.

Any help would be appreciated.

I deleted your image since it had your toon names in it.
you are trying to use kissassist with usemq2melee=1 while trying to use mq2berzerker in assist mode. with assist mode you don't need kissassist at all - and if for some reason you are running kissassist you should be in mode 0 with usemq2melee=0
 
There may be reasons people use kissassist to supplement the plugin, such as assisting outside of group.

Go into your kissassist ini and make sure use mq2melee is set to 0.

well, this is why i responded with the response that i did - which included the usemq2melee=0 part
 
Didn’t see your response when I first hit reply. Work distraction.

Thanks. I will give that a try...and thanks for deleting...I thought I uploaded the one with wiped out names...so appreciate that!!!!!!!!

Hey Sic. Checked mq2melee and it was set to 1. I changed to 0, reloaded fresh and still the same problem.

He engages like a rock star on the first mob, and then sits like a whiny teenager for the remainder of the session.

Since I changed mq2melee to 0, I decided to fire off KissAssist, which again worked for one mob and then he grabs some bench and appears to be proud of it :) and does nothing.

Since making the mq2melee change, i no longer get the loop and everything shows it is running correctly. In the status it is showing him correctly as ASSIST.

He worked perfectly fine last night, I did nothing except run the updates to MQ2 and MQ2berzerker before starting my campaign today.

Obviously I have something set wrong...but am a total newb to MQ2, so feel free to talk to me like a 5 year old if needed.

MAG pet is same as I used yesterday (same name) and I can confirm I have my MAG set as MAIN ASSIST, PULLER and MARK NPC.

is there a reason why you are trying to use kissassist? I do not recommend trying to use kissassist with mq2berzerker unless you have a specific reason to do so.

outside of a circumstance where you are trying to assist out of group, there's not much reason to run a combat macro along with mq2berzerker. you literally just /zerk mode 1 and it will assist your main tank / main assist (make sure your MT/MA is assigned in your group window) - your /zerk campradius is your red circle - this is the circle it will engage mobs inside of - so you want to check that as well.

I would do this:

/end on your zerker
check that your tank is assigned mt/ma in your group window
/zerk mode 0 to go manual mode, then move to where you want to set your "camp" that you will return to and sit down between mobs
/zerk mode 1 to go back to assist mode and set a camp where you are
Double check your autoassistat value is what you want it to be - I personally use 100, but if you're unsure about stuff

This is what my settings look like

Yeah, I was only using Kissassist as I thought that was a requirement. That said, I have no intentions of using it other than for testing purposes here.
I will try the /zerk mode 1 and see if that helps.

At this point, I just want him to work..and if Kissassist is the problem I have no need outside of group to use it. I was doing it only because I was a newb and didn't see anything in the plugin information which showed that you shouldn't...if it is there, I obviously missed it.

If I wanted to delete everything associated with him and start over, what files do I need to delete and recreate?

Thanks again.

You don't even have to do that. Simply don't start the macro via /mac kissassist anymore when playing the zerker. Set the zerk to mode 1 and have the Group Main Assist role set to the tank.

Understood.

I did that after a fresh start again...not loading KA. Again, he works perfectly for one mob, then sits and does nothing again.

I only tried KA after trying to unload and reload the plugin in attempts to get him to engage.

I run /plugin MQ2BerZerker and then /zerk mode 1.

Works fine one time...then sits and won't engage.
 
Try setting the magician as the group main assist role. I don't think roles can be given to pets, so the actual mage character needs the role. That should point the zerker to the mob that needs deadening.

He is set this way in group. MAG is the group leader.
MAG is TANK, MA and Mark NPC.
 
I think mode 1 will only engage if the magiacian is meleeing? Or at least that's the behavior I observed for my war.

Didn't last night for 4 hours. Worked like a charm last night.

I am on now and tried as a test and it doesn't change his behavior.
 
I just unloaded the plugin and reloaded and I am getting a RED MQ2Berzerker popup on the screen and not the normal light blue MQ2BerZerker version xxx like before.

So it would appear the plugin is not loading correctly or fully.
 
At this point, i'd do a clean restart. You might just have some gremlin lurking around after the changes.
 
When reporting error messages, it's only useful if you tell us what the error message is. Otherwise we'll spend more time waiting on a response when I ask. What is the error message?

There aren't any error messages. Everything appears to be loading correctly. Is there a dump file or something where I can reference which would show the error log?

Again, it appears to be loading correctly. Plugin is not showing any errors in MQ2.

When I unload and reload the plugin (to try and get him to engage).....the message that overlays the screen showing MQ2BerZerker loaded is now in RED (and then disappears in a few seconds) is the message I am referring to. Can't catch a screenshot of it, though I am trying :)
 
I know something you -could- get me a screenshot of though.

Code:
/zerk showsettings

then stretch out your window and take me a screensnip please
 
All of that looks normal. Do you have discord? If you do, shoot me a message at Chatwiththisname#5795
It was a corrupt .dll file. I went and downloaded the file manually and dumped it in and restarted everything and it is working fine.

I set myself (MAG) as Main Assist only and went ahead and started to melee and he jumped into action for a dozen or so mobs now.

It is WORKING AGAIN.

Thanks for your time and attention everyone. Apologies for the newbness showing through, but it is working again like a champ.
