Question - P99 while MQ runs on live

[Tahur]

Playing on p99 while mq is running on live on the same pc, wanted to confirm if this will causes detection from p99. I am guessing there is no difference between running it for live and trying to also play on p99 at the same time, thus causing detection and get you banned. Anyone have any information about this?

It's anecdotal, and I'm not sure if I imagined it... But.

I once logged off of Live, and started up p99 without exiting MQ, and when I logged into the account and entered character selection, it immediately crashed to login when I hit Enter World.

Not realizing what happened, I tried again and couldn't even get to character select.

So it dawned on me. I closed MQ, and tried again... It worked.

Mind you, the MQ that was running, wasn't even for the EMU client. So It wouldn't have worked.

For what it's worth.

You can just close the tray utility.

But if they’re looking through all your processes you might still have an issue.

They can detect it. I was banned for it, I just got done playing Live with MQ and forgot to exit it before logging into P99 and was banned a bit after.

rename your p99 eq shortcut to p99-eq-close mq-myseq
will save your life lol

but to answer your question their detection .dll will scan running processes and you can get banned for it. might be able to rename process.exe to something else and get away with it. im sure ive logged into p99 at least once with server.exe running, luckily myseq wasn't and never got banned. i wouldn't risk it intentionally though
