Problem - Unable to get Dannet to work (1 Viewer)

[wintermute787]

Hey all, totally new and a bit lost.

I followed the instructional videos, downloaded the redguides launcher, was able to setup my profiles, all good so far. However, when i'm in game, and all my characters are grouped, the commands don't actually do anything. I can see the MQ dialogue box doing things, however the commands aren't actually given to the characters.

I did see this "connect to eqbcs" option in the MQ icon. However, it's just showing me "waiting for connections on port: 2112" not ever connecting. I made sure to turn off my firewall, and still nothing. I'm not sure if i'm doing something wrong? The install all went smoothly, so i'm at a bit of a loss as to what i'm doing wrong.

On all characters issue
/plugin dannet load
retry issuing group commands eg /dga /say hi

revert with results

Dannet is peer to peer, there is no server, just make sure it is loaded on everyone

Then of course you need to make sure that your Dannet is working > here is a post where i explain how to check <

Thanks so much! I did end up getting it to work finally, I had a plugin turned off for some reason by default. It was the macro quest lite plugin? Not sure why that was off by default but turning it on made everything work.

One other question, do you have a link to what all of the commands do like what chase does exactly, etc?

Hey guys, I also have another question. So, i'm trying to follow Sic's hotkey video, and i'm getting some errors. When I try and use commands like //docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName} it will throw an error "Can not parse /SHD" (or whatever the class shortname is on that character.)

I have made sure to include the lines in my ini file mentioned in the instructions, but I still get this error. Any idea what i'm doing wrong? I have attached my macroquest.ini file as well so someone can check it out.

you have a duplicate of the commands which may be causing the issues:

On Line 24 - You have the EQBCS versions
/cwtn=/noparse /bcg //docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtna=/noparse /bcga //docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtnr=/noparse /bca //docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtnra=/noparse /bcaa //docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName}

On Line 92 you have the Dannet Versions
/cwtn=/dgge /docommand /$\{Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtna=/dgga /docommand /$\{Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtnr=/dgre /docommand /$\{Me.Class.ShortName}
/cwtnra=/dgra /docommand /$\{Me.Class.ShortName}

I would start by getting rid of the EQBCS versions if you are no longer using EQBCS.

Thanks for the input on this. I did start with the dannet version first, which had the same issue. I then added the EQBCS version which still had issues as well. Is there anything else I could be doing wrong beyond this?

ohhh In your dannet commands you have an extra Backslash that you dont need.
/cwtn=/dgge /docommand /$\{Me.Class.ShortName}

I think it should be just:
/cwtn=/dgge /docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName}

Im at work at the moment - so I cant see how mine is setup.

 

[Szazor]

Oh..just reading Sic's Hotkey section on this. Both variants should work.



So if that's the case....I have no idea

Is this what you were looking for? It is posted by Sic in the Dannet Discussion - but Extremely useful when making the transition from EQBCS to Dannet.
