• Hail, we're RedGuides. We want you to play six (yes, 6!) EverQuest characters at once. We have scripts and a friendly community to help, please join our playstyle and say hello! 👋
  • We've added LLM sections to our Terms & Rules and Resource Rules, for everyone's sanity & in-game safety.
    Read more
    a. Do not replace your voice with an LLM. This goes for your posts and your scripts. Drafting and editing with a tool is fine, but don't take you out of what you share.
    b. Do not replace your EQ character's voice with an LLM. We don't want scripts that speak over /ooc, /shout or other public channels. This has been an unwritten rule that's kept casino scripts off the site for decades, but we're now compelled to make it clear: keep automated communication private.

    Why Does RG Review Scripts?
    Nearly every LLM-written Lua script we see is making your character do impossible things, and rarely in a way that's beneficial to you. We've seen heavy server hammering, /target over impossible distances when /nav spawn would passively accomplish the same thing, a spawn search that fires 20+ times per second, and other pointless actions that are likely annoying GMs.

    You are welcome to use LLMs as a tool to structure, draft, and edit your work, but please read critically before hitting /lua run

Release MQ2ToolTip

Seeking help please. Want to write up ToolTip in the wiki, but first I'd like to get it working. I've the latest RG Launcher build, all working correctly and vanilla (I don't mess with the standard.)

Download and copied the MQUI_ToolTipWnd.xml file into \resources\uifiles\default in my mq folder (I also checked file I was using with kaen, his works as expected.)
Note: the updater/loader does not appear to be including this MQUI_ToolTipWnd.xml in the base.
/plugin MQ2ToolTip
/reloadui
/tooltip on - I see the tooltip window, but have no date when target/hover mouse over a target!) have checkd HUD working

Note: kaen01 also seeing the following:
> /plugin tooltip
UI file MQUI_ToolTipWnd.xml added, you must reload your UI for this to take effect. Plugin 'MQ2ToolTip' loaded.
> /reloadui

I don't see the message "UI file MQUI_ToolTipWnd.xml added, you must reload your UI for this to take effect.", only the part about the plugin loading.

Update: if you unload the plugin, log and relog in, then load plugin, the above message does appear. BUT still getting an empty tootip window....very odd.

As of the latest patch this isn't working for me. The ToolTip windows is up and plugin loaded. But when I target something nothing displays in the window.
Used the slash command /tooltip on to make sure but still nothing.
Anything else I can try?

Thanks-BB

Cleanup in the tooltip aisle

The behavior of this plugin is really wierd and janky. I tried to make
some simple fixes but I'm going to have to come back (if ever) to clean
up some of this.

Some issues noticed immediately:
- The behavior of when the tooltip displays anything and when it updates
feels really off and unintuitive
- Titlebar on a tooltip is wierd
- HP/MANA is always your own, not the thing you're hovering.
- At least I fixed a crash with...
