Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20131209

Follow these instructions if you are going to play on the test server or
you will overwrite your current EverQuest Directory


So you have 2 EQ folders regular and test server
Example:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Everquest\
C:\Program Files (x86)\Everquest Test\

CREATE A NEW MQ2 FOLDER FOR THE TEST SERVER COMPILE.
The test server compile does not work on live servers and vice versa.
Example:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Macroquest2
C:\Program Files (x86)\Macroquest2 Test Server\

The RGUpdater works with this compile BUT MAKE SURE you are pointing it at the correct folders.
Its saves the location so you need to switch between live and test servers when updating if you play on both.

There may a be better way but currently you need to log into the test server using the SOE EQ Launcher then start MacroQuest after you have logged in.

If anyone has more experience with this please post.

This is new so please bear with us. We will be posting more help and better instructions in the following week.

You can use patchme to go to the test server also btw. Just update to test on the launch then run the normal shortcut for patchme the server list will be test.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130626

New test compile is being worked on. It is a major patch with the new tier 4 stuff coming through. Thanks for your patience.

Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130711

Excellent, if we keep this up, I might move to the test server for keeps.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130711

Love it on test.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130711

Thank you. Thank you so very very much. Hit me up if anyone makes the switch to test. I've got my 3 box crew transferred over, and I'm just waiting on my tank to hit 100. I do massive deeps, too <3.

Aaaaaaand then the server went down, only to return with a new client :(
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130711

It gets compiled soon as we get our hands on the source code. Test compile will be up shortly
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130711

Lately the Test compile has come out fairly quick. It may not happen every time, but so far it has been great. Hopefully they will have a test compile in the next few days.

<Edit> see, I couldn't even get my post out before Maskoi replied.

Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130724

Loving this! Thank you guys for doing this, moved my toons there a few days ago.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130724

I decided to mess around on test a little bit and have been trying to get this loaded, but when I start MQ2, it's not injecting, and I'm also not getting the incorrect client version message. I am using isboxer, bypassing patcher, and loading straight into testeqgame.exe. I noticed the point in the OP that you have to load in through the patcher. Does this mean that isboxer is not supported, or am I missing a step somewhere?
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130724

Its no different than regular MQ2 and the live servers. I don't use isoboxer but it should work with it.

Can you login without using isoboxer and see if it comes up?
Make sure the macroquest2.exe is being run as admin also
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130724

I got it to work using ISBoxer if I used the Launcher. Ill try again later to bypass the launcher, I was probably doing something dumb.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130724

Check isoboxer forums about regular mq2 there is probably a post some about running it.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130724

Was trying out the test server and /twist does not work for me. Am I missing something?
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130724

/plugin mq2twist
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130724

Make sure you launch MQ2 using "Run as administrator". ISBoxer does by default, but MQ2 does not, so if you just launch both normally, MQ2 will not have appropriate permissions to attach to the EQ instances launched by ISB.

I could post a more involved set of directions on permanently adding MQ2 to always launch as admin if it's useful, but right clicking isn't too bad I suspect.

It's also important you put MQ2 into a folder that you own, as it will otherwise have issues loading plugins/saving INIs.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130724

I think they patched today so this is down FYI
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130724

Yea can confirm it needs a new version. Being new to the site, any idea how long to expect for changes to be made?
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130724

We are working on it now but it is a big patch, they are beginning to push thru the new expansion. I expect we will have it up sometime tomorrow afternoon.

~ Updated for patch
~ Loot.mac - simple loot all corpses mac added
~ KissAssist 6.7.5 updated



New compile uploaded
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130815

FYI - new version introduces a significant change which breaks kissassist (maybe others).

Echos are now prefixed with [MQ2 (Test)] instead of just [MQ2], which makes the #Events which match it fail.

Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130815

Seems there is another patch...that must get annoying, but thank you for updating the compiles!
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130815a

Indeed there is, let's hope they knock out this one as fast as the last, that was quick.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130815a

with the next expansion coming out in a month get used to it
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130815a

Oh yeah, I actually meant your update was quick last time.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130815a

All the credit goes to our super secret dev. I just compile the stuff.

Is it just me or did we just have another patch?
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130821

It's just you, this version works.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130821

Making the jump to test, seems like it'd be more fun, and I really dont see the difference as i'm just boxing 3 chars currently by myself lol
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130821

New patch on Test. :( looks like it'll be a lot more patches until CoTF releases later this month.
 
Re: Very Vanilla Compile TEST SERVER 20130821

Patch was a big. Devs are working on it. We hope to have it late tonight to tomorrow sometime.
