No VPN. But the alt is on a VM. Does that affect it even if they're on the same interface? It seems to recognize it to an extent. Because it shows the correct group under /dnet info. Char #2 shows the group leaders name.

VM usage for eq is something dbg takes action against, i'd recommend not doing that
 
I've searched around and can't find what I'm looking for so maybe someone can help.

I'm trying to make a dannet macro to tell a single char to cast a specific spell, in this case Mes. I was thinking /dge (char name) /cast 4

This obviously isn't working. How can I give a command to one char?

Thanks!
 
I had this problem over a year ago when I moved to a new computer. Alas, I have moved to a new computer again and am having the same problem. Dannet is not discovering other accounts that are logged into the same computer. /dnet info only returns the name of the character that typed the query, plus the zone, class, group, etc. Unloaded and reloaded Dannet.

I know I haven't provided a lot of details, but I would appreciate some guidance on what I am missing (again). Last time I uninstalled the Killer Network App and everything was fine. This computer doesn't have that app.
 
Hello,

I am having an issue with one toon not responding to /dex, /dgge commands.

Currently running 6 toons on the same network/ separate pcs and only one is not responding to /dex commands.

checked /dnet interface and all toons are set to same channel = ethernet.

please advise.
 
Hey All,

I'm not sure what's going on, but I tried Xgen, RGMercs and Kiss at various points yesterday. For the last few days I've been enjoying using the (Follow me, Come to Me, Mimic me) keys that I assume function via DanNet. Other Dannet commands work, but not those.

Something I loaded seems to have broken these keys (even when Kiss/Xgen isn't running for example). I have Dannet set to 1 in my Kissassist.ini's (but I realize it may have nothing to do with Kiss at all). I've spent hours searching and just can't seem to figure out where I'm going wrong.

Those three buttons I'm assuming call another plugin, maybe it got unloaded?

I'm coming back after an 8 year break (which predates the RG launcher) so I'm still finding my feet. I wasn't sure which forum to post it in as I'm not sure where the problem originates. Appreciate any guidance you all have in how those 3 keys work and what plugins I should check.
 
that is an issue with the groupinfo plugin, your ini might have defaulted back to eqbc, so go into your config folder, open up mq2groupinfo.ini and you should be able to comment out the eqbc setup, and uncomment the dannet setup then save the file and /groupinfo should show you what hte command is for reloading the ini, it might be /groupinfo reload

Hey,

I genuinely appreciate your reply. I don't see the section you're speaking of, here is my MQ2GroupInfo.ini from the config folder. Do you see the section in question and I'm just missing it?

This is the section kaen is talking about: Line 16 +
The commands are definitely set to Dannet - so unfortunately this is not the issue.

I would start looking to see if Dannet Plugin is actually loaded.

INI: 
ComeToMeText=Come To Me
ComeToMeCommand=/dgge /multiline ; /afollow off;/nav stop;/timed 5 /nav id ${Me.ID}
;ComeToMeCommand=/bcg //multiline ; /afollow off;/nav stop;/timed 5 /nav id ${Me.ID}
ComeToMeToolTip=/dgge /nav id ${Me.ID}
NavStopCommand=/dgge /nav stop
;NavStopCommand=/bcg //nav stop

oh, well yeah what szazor said, then you need to make sure hte dannet plugin is and mq2advpaht for the follow me button, and that you have meshes for the zone for come to me to work

Edit: The problem is dannet.

Even manually selecting the interface, then doing the unload/load as said in the Wiki my characters still can't see each other. I'm not sure what the heck happened but when I try to manually select the ethernet interface it still won't select it.

Going to try to reboot the PC, and if not I guess uninstall MQ and reinstall from scratch because something borked it up.

Really appreciate everyones help thus far!
 
I'm going to quote sic's post which is located on page 9 of the discussion section of mq2dannet:

https://github.com/dannuic/MQ2Dan is the git for it with some info.

but there isn't really anything to download (it is included in the build)

there isn't really an install or setup - you just load the plugin.

if for some reason you don't see everyone when you do a /dnet info

then you do want to make sure that when you do a /dnet interface all of your toons are using the same interface.

for the purposes of multiple boxes on the same pc, the loopback interface is fine

The arrow is pointing to your currently selected interface device - if you have no arrow, you have nothing selected.

/dnet interface "Loopback Pseudo-Interface 1" with quotes is what i would do

you can use the number as well, but dannuic (who is the namesake, says to use the name when you can)

after you do that on everyone, you want to unload and reload the plugin on everyone, all the characters logged on at the time

/plugin mq2dannet unload

/plugin mq2dannet load

then doing a /dnet interface you can verify everyone sees the same one, and then a /dnet info should show all your toons

For multiple computers you won't want "loopback" you'll want your network device - Ethernet 3 for me, in the above image

you will want to ensure everyone is using their network device - if you have no arrow, you have nothing selected.

So I had tried this many times, then after reading further, you include the quotation marks. That did it (at least on one of my boxes). Thank you! I have no idea what unset that.

My question is, is there anyway to save this configuration so it doesn't have to manually select the interface each time I load a window?
 
I had to reset this one time when my guys randomly started acting weird. It has been fine for about a month and a half so I think once you go through and manually set it up you're good to go. Probably just a thing that can happen with default settings, not 100% sure though. When I saw your issue I remembered I found sic's solution buried in the dannet discussion so maybe it can get stickied or something =)
 
I know you can structure a dannet query in Lua like dannet.query(name, "Me.FreeInventory", dannet_delay). My question is, for the query part of this, could the target 'name' return the value of a locally stored setting for that client? So kind of like dannet.query(name, report_local_setting, dannet_delay)? Or do queries have to be mq data (per the wiki "A query is simply a normal TLO access from the perspective of the peer with the external")?
 
is there a way i could turn all chars to not burn on, then turn it back on through dannet? im just a simple fellow and usually am on chase or grind most of the time, being able to time the burn on my most hated mission heroes forge would be sick.
 
Hey guys, I mess around with a lot of toons sometimes (100+), and I can't get them all to connect to a single Dannet server. They seem to connect to 2-3 different ones for some reason. Is there some way around this? I've tried Mq2eqbc, but that doesn't seem to work for me either. Any ideas?
 
Wanted to give dannet another shot to try and get working. Finally can get to work, just wondering if a fix to my laptop working on ethernet.
My PC /dnet interface shows as per the attached pic, my laptops ethernet shows the same, just with its ip as 192.168.1.100--192.168.255.255 - these will not talk to each other.
If i switch the laptop to WiFi - /dnet interface shows as 192.168.1.101--192.168.1.255 - when switched to this interface my PC and Laptop talk fine

I cant see anyway to make my laptops ethernet goto 192.168.1.100--192.168.1.255, as i think this is the problem?.
I also tested a second PC, this gives the ip #########--192.168.1.255 on its ethernet connection, and also works fine.

Any Thoughts? - tried turning off firewalls etc.

As i say it does work putting the laptop on wifi, just would prefer cable connection.

Common for wifi to not 'bridge' the LAN and WIFI network, there is a setting in your router somewhere
Which wifi router do you have?

Hi, thanks for the info, router is a netgear R8000 nighthawk
Just odd both PCs work fine on ethetnet, just laptop doesn't like it

All three are connected to a 8 way switcher connected to the same port on the router, just for extra info.
EQBC works fine BTW, never had a problem with that, just trying to move off it 🙂
 
So here is my set up:

I have 4 computers all windows 11. Each computer runs 1 EQ RoF2 client. so 1 computer, 1 client, 1 character
2 computers are on the same network...and they communicate with each other
the 2 other computers are on a VPN (for security reasons) but i use them as well to play.

All 4 computers occupy the same desk. but 2 need to be on a VPN at all times.

the 2 computers on the VPN cannot see the main Redguides MQ2 PC, though they both recognize the groupleader and put a LDR tag on him.

How can i make these 2 computers (on the VPN) see the master PC without resorting to disconnecting from the VPN. Is there a configuration thing i need to do? workaround
? Thank you very much. Removing the VPN is not an option sadly. Nor is running 2 instances of EQ on 1 PC an option. thanks.
