IF camp radius is like other options with CWTN plugins when updating commands with the / command it changes them to permanent changes that have to be changed with the / commands again in order to not make them permanent.

Figured worth a mention just incase you move zones or situation changes and you wonder why camp is set soo large.
yup, of course it is. it is the first item in all of the FAQ, and mentioned. all of the commands are saved when using the slash commands.
 
Love the CWTN plugins... only MQ2Mag giving me problems.

I keep getting the message "you're not a mage, Knock that off"

Confirmed MQ2mag loaded but he will not cast spells or move in any way. I am on an emulator server (Lazarus) and have gotten MQ2Mag to work here before but its sporadic...

yeah some servers they don't use classes the same classes that og eq does.

if it says you're not a mage, then they're using some custom thing that isn't how we see a "mage" class.

unfortunately for the emu servers, since they are so vastly different, which often have custom classes and such, the plugins are a "unsupported, if they work they work" kind of situation.
 
Thank you! I was wondering that myself. I just stick them to a wall in my guild hall. The lore messages isn't so bad but having them on my cursor kind of blows.

you can also just block the spell on those characters that you don't want to have modrods, then i don't think they get the lore message
 
Guess i'll have to clear some bags on my mage to make room for all the summoned items.

Thanks Sic

there are other options for some of the other clickies if you're hard pressed for space

useparadox off would also make you not summon the paradox clicky
useservant would stop using servant clicky
useminion would stop using minion
 
Hello, I noticed on my mage plugin it's not automatically buffing the highest level damage shield I have. Is there anything I need to do to enable that?

Another thing I noticed is that in your tutorial video it shows a clickable UI with settings, I don't have that on mine and I am wondering why. I attached a pic to show. I know the plugin loaded okay because it started to buff itself, the pet etc....

And finally.... my pet won't defend me if I am attacked or stay attacking a target, it auto spams back off as you can see in a screenshot, basically making the pet useless.

Any help would be greatly appreciated !

**Edit, all fixed... all my problems were just a learning curve** trying to figure it all out :)

Sic updated MQ2Mage with a new update entry:

Coth

MQ2Mage
-- Added functionality for AA and spell Coth
--- /mag coth bob
--- this will use the AA if you have it, or the spell if you don't have the AA and the spell is memorized
-- /mag gcoth bob
--- this will use the memorized spell "Call of the heroes"
-> NOTE <-
- You will still need to byos, or utilize something like turning off useSkinDS (makes your gem 9 empty) to memorize Coth if you want to use...

Read the rest of this update entry...
 
my mage after buffing keep casting burning symbiosis non stop for ever and ever lol any tip to stop that?

Not sure - maybe something is off on the mq2 build.

the fix that made that happen went in in october, so the correct check for it is there.

1000% suggest running macroquest "Next"

edit: nope test in mq2 and next - is not spamming burning symbiosis
edit2: checked a few different mages over different tier levels, can't replicate

any other details?

you can always add burning symbiosis recourse to your blocked spells if you need to

you added "burning symbiosis recourse" to your blocked buffs and mq2mage is still casting?

can you show me it being in your blocked buffs and your mq2mage window casting?
 
this is not your blocked buffs in game, or your mq2mage output showing you are casting the spell with mq2mage.

just use screensnip, i don't need a phone recording or your spell cast bar. when you say it is being cast, i believe you - I want to see that mq2mage is the one casting it.

I want to see a screen snip of your blocked buffs, eq button -> character -> blocked buffs, and a screen snip of it saying [MQ2Mage] Casting ~~~> Burning Symbiosis over and over
 
How do I get my mage to stop autoattacking when assisting my main? I dont see an option for that and I dont want him doing that.
 
Chat and Sic,
Thanks for adding CotH function.
I was gonna do a vid to explain the usage - did the update note info make sense?

we don't "store" or yield to make sure we do it, to try and minimize as much conflict as possible

I tried it out, made a ButtonMaster button for it too..very straightforward in command and in concept to use the AA first, but ability for lower mages to use the spell .
 
MQNext, everything looks updated I am getting "Shield of Shadow from Shielding is not a valid spell! Please report to CWTN", never seen this before today.
 
Great Macro! I have PMed Sic for some issues I had and he pointed out a few things and it turned out to be operator error and not the plugin. Rather than ask Sic in a PM I figured others might have same question as me(I have searched and read this discusssion looking for an answer).

While on some raids the RL has an assist set, rather than set 2 MA's after a certain point in the event melee get called to stay on adds and casters on named. This leaves me without an assist and forces me to play manually making it harder to box. I have tried switching to Sictank mode and targeting the Named I am supposed to be on, for some reason it will switch to another target(Named I am not supposed to be on the last time I tried). I even tried to unassign the MA(while in SicTank mode) I was using to assist off of before the switch incase it was causing issues. Is there a mode or something I can do to manually target what I want plugin to attack till I am able to switch back to assisting the raid assist?

Next thing I had planned on trying was turning RaidMode off and then try SicTank mode

Any advice would be appreciated.

your msg back in august? i guess you got those sorted out? not sure why you're mentioning it - you said you you werre trying to be secretive about it and it was operator error as you stated (which btw, you just left me hanging in our conversation).

anyhow to answer your now question:

if you are in raidmode, you will assist your assigned raidassist, tank mode or otherwise.
if you are not in raidmode, you will assist your group main assist, unless you are in a tank mode and designated as the main assist, and then you will pick your own targets

so you are correct in "going out of raid mode if you don't want to be in raidmode to assist the designated raid ma"

the most simple solution would be to have your raid MA's all designated and then just swap your /mag raidassist #|name where # is 1, 2, or 3 or name is the name of the person

so if you are normally raid assisting bill with a /mag raidassist bill you can just swap to bob with a /mag raidassist bob and now you will assist off of bob instead
 
Thank you I will give it a try, I thought I could only assist off of what was in the drop down of assigned assists. Sorry if I left you hanging on our last PM when I realized my mistake I was reluctant to admit it because it was totally my fault and I didnt want to waste anymore of your time :P

paypal allows you to use a credit card and not sign up for anything via their "guest checkout" that is how i purchased expansions from dbg, you should be able to do that here as well

soon:tm: we'll have other purchase options like stripe
 
I was using this during a raid tonight and I realized the camp radius maximum is 100. Can this be increased? In some cases I would like to be further away from the raid target and still assist. Now if I move outside the camp radius circle I stop casting.

Discussion about 10 post up. use the cmd line /mag campradius (your number)

it isn't. that is just the ui - because we decided it is more likely that someone would fat finger a campradius larger than expected in the ui, and if they wanted to change campradius to something larger, they could use the slash commands

MQ2Mage Commands
/mag campradius #
 
Please let me know if this has been addressed. I searched for the error ("The procedure entry point..." and skimmed the search results for "dll" and didn't see anything relevant.

My setup is slightly unusual in that 4 accounts have their own EQ folder, while 2 accounts share another EQ folder. The mage is one of the 4. The zerker is one of the 2. I only have one MacroQuest folder :)

I just installed MQ2Mage. I am using Next, and have been using MQ2Berzerker for a week or so with few problems. Now when I "/plugin mq2mage load", I get this error:

the procedure entry point ?RemoveBuffEffect@PCZoneClient@EQClasses@@QAEXHH@Z could not be located in the dynamic link library xxxMQPluginsPath\mq2mage.DLL

I did get a similar error with MQ2Berzerker, googled the error and followed a few of the suggestions, one of which (admin cmd -> scf/scannow) appeared to fix it. It didn't help with the mage plugin.

I tried putting xxxMQPluginsPath into the system path, still no luck.

This is windows 10, up to date. I ran all the optional updates in case there was a driver / graphics problem. I have 211gb free disk and as far as I know, no RAM problems.

I've attached my server_toonname.log for the last session and also the MacroQuest log.

A little extra background. I'm setting up a new Windows 11 computer, but I don't know if Win 11 will be a problem for EQ, MQ, or the CWTN plugins. I'm willing to just abandon the effort to set up this plugin on my old computer for the time being, as regular KA is working ok and that would be fine for a month or so.

I don't want to move my EQ play on to the new machine until the 64-bit version of EQ forces me to. While I'm working on getting EQ running on the new computer, I'd like to keep playing on the old one.
