Redbot updated redfetch with a new update entry:

1.3.0



Read the rest of this update entry...

Installing this updated version does make launching via Redfetch.exe work for me (instead of having to start via a command prompt).

Aside from using the "Easy Update" button each time, is there a way to make the "Very Vanilla MQ" executable button in the "Shortcuts" pane launch EQBCS at the same time, the same as the RG Launcher?

yup! check the bottom of the settings tab

edit: oh, I misread. No, nothing is tied to the shortcut button. programs only auto launch post-update. i can add an eqbcs shortcut

I just came back to the game, seen redfetch was a thing now, had a hard time getting it running.
I had the issue where running the redfetch.exe in windows just opens a cmd window and immediately closes it.
Read through threads, used the search, couldent find solution. Eventually found solution was to delete UserName\AppData\Local\pyapp\cache
I must have interrupted its initial install and it got stuck. Just wanted to stick this here to add it to search results for whoever else might have same issue.

I am a returning player to EverQuest live. I used MQ2 in the past.
I am lost with this Redfetch. I need help. Is there a guide somewhere that shows a newbie how to set it up so that it can be used with a six box setup?
Everywhere I have looked is 5 or 6 year old information, no current info.
Please help and advise. I just want to play my 6 toons like I used to.

design change, i set that to only run when MQ itself is updated. I'll re-think some "start mq" options, any ideas?

Update: I cleared the Cache and ran it full and it opened the MQ button. Adding image in Settings in case it happens to anyone else !

 

[Redbot]

well yeah you clear the cache you'll re-download everything!

you can go to shortcuts if you just want to start mq

That caught a lot of people out, I had people calling me to troubleshoot why it had not started.

Maybe an option to only start MQ on Update as well as the standard option to Start MQ Post-Update. Not sure how to word the other option, but it is a QOL improvement. I can get past it by adding the launch to my start.bat file, but less sophisticated users will have issues.

Reverting it now, sorry bad idea!

Redbot updated redfetch with a new update entry:

1.4.1

Changed​

• The update button once again doubles as a launch MQ button, even when no update occurs.

Added​

• redfetch run and redfetch open CLI commands act as shortcuts, for example redfetch run eqgame will start EQgame.exe, redfetch open eqhost will open the eqhost.txt file, etc. These mirror the TUI shortcuts.
