Every time I type /nearby show since yesterday 9/17/2025, it closes my account down. I am not getting any error messages or anything, just my EQ window closes. I have gone in and made sure everything is updated.

I take that back, I tried it on a different character and got a crash error.

Yep.

Should have a fix for it this afternoon

Sorry about that
 
As soon as I log into one of my characters, I get a instant crash message. My other 2 accounts are fine. I've done everything I can think of to fix it and nothing works. As soon as I load MQ, that toon crashes. It's a warrior, if that matters. Would appreciate any help. Thanks.

That's my bad. MQNearby is crashing on the spawnlist tab. I've submitted a fix, should be implemented later this evening. Apologies.

Don't undersell yourselves... Crashes are all part of the game, but you guys are always right on top of it, and we really appreciate you all!

this isn't a crash log, it has nothing to dow ith an in-game crash

you need to control+c your crash popup window and then provide that crash id if you are getting one.

the mq debug log you shared shows what crashid it would/should use if it generated a crash - but checking that id i don't see one

I don't know of any mq2mage crashes (and you didn't even post in the mq2mage thread) and based on the stuff above, absolutely no indication that is what it is.

without a crash id folks can only guess

- AV
- Permissions
- New UI Engine

I thought they update when I run the updater..
Sorry I seem to be lost finding what I should do and where, mostly I just wait and hope something happens and it fixes itself.
I saw what seemed to be a recent crash thread and thought that would be better than starting new ones.
Guessed wrong again...

i just built with the update

re: older threads - chances are if you're bumping a crash from a different month it is *probably* different, and since there are newer crash reports that match what you posted in the recently posted threads there would be best --- it isn't the end of the world

crashID? anything?
Click to expand...
Sorry, no crash ID. Below screenshot is what I get anytime I try and load Nearby. Resume Overlay will not work after trying to load Nearby.

This is the error in my MQ output:
1758821225520.png

The only fix that has worked to resume overlay right now is unloading Nearby.

ha ... as long as there are users there will be crashes you can not explain :P

Every day I ask my self "How the actual fuck did they do that?"
 
Was wondering if there is a way to keep our spawn optioned save. I like to set my group colors to something bright, so that I can make sure they are following like they're supposed to. But it's a setting I seem to have to redo each time I re log in. Other than that MQNearby has been extremely useful =)

They should be getting saved. Is it not saving and subsequently loading for anyone else?

The transparency of the overlay mode changed between this and the previous build. Is that because its not saving preferences correctly?
Click to expand...
I'm unsure what you mean by the transparency of the overlay changed.
The background has an opacity of 0.
I believe if you've resized the overlay to off the EQ window it removes (makes it 255) that, but that's the only thing I know of that would affect the transparency.
Try editing your overlay position to ensure it's completely within the bounds of EQ.
 
FWIW the INI is in configs\MQNearby_PlayerName_ServerShortName.ini

If it has "Show" "Show Label" "Use Con Color" and "Color" settings then it's been saved to the INI.
I just looked at the code and no change to the INI file in use has been made and they match.

I skittered through the individual window options and they all appear to be coded to save as expected.

Thanks! I'll check when test comes back up.

I'm not sure why it wasn't getting saved. But I logged in this morning and my colors are the color I chose for them. I did have a couple Lua's and plugins that where updated this morning, so maybe it was a conflict with a plugin.

Is there any way to pull over the waypoints for quest and stuff I have added to maps?
Click to expand...
Hmm, I thought I answered this question -

Define waypoints? If you're referring to the points you generate on a map within EQ - then yes. I pull in all the points and lines from the map files. I don't have a way to create new points from within MQNearby and you'd still need to use the Everquest map to do that. But I do read the file and generate the points, their labels, and all lines from the map files.

If you're talking about some other waypoint that I'm not familiar with, then no.
