The site itself is slow responding for me, I am sure Brain, Dann, Knightly and maybe Red (webstie side)? will be on it soon. Please have patience!
 
Yup, installed patch, re-installed, downloaded the .zip from forum but still get version dated 7/13:

Got this on the launcher after i just let it sit and think about it's choices in life.

As requested: Reporting to management.

EQ *rudely* pushed another build during downtime after brainiac already did the MQ work, so it needs some re-do.

Sorry for the hiccup ya'll.

Should hopefully be back up soon.

Thanks for your patience!

This will happen if you don't launch Everquest (just the game) and then you will be able to use the Launcher and not get those error msg windows.

Yeah, I caught the hiccup bit with builds.

That error spawned x5 windows during the Lua check phase of the launcher. Seemed strange - even for patch day. And you know, the thing said to report it =]
 
Threre is also Cloudflare maintence going on over the next 24 hours. Could be exacerbating the issue.

Cloudflare Status
Scheduled - We will be performing scheduled maintenance in VIE (Vienna) datacenter between 2023-07-19 23:00 and 2023-07-20 05:00 UTC.

I know this says specifically Vienna, but Houston was also under maintenance today. So maybe.
 
New user here. Forgive a newbie question. I use this wonderful softer for guild hall buffers, works great. But is there a way i can turn mq off for a specific char?
that character you can just /unload
 
Patch today is likely to be a little later than we're spoiled into having. Thank you for being patient.


What to expect on patch days?
When eq patches MQ has to be rebuilt. (you also have to patch EQ --- this way you avoid "Version Mismatch" issues)

once mq is built RG can build - we now have an automated system that rebuilds RG as soon as it is updated - which means our previous method of "let's give it a quick test" is no longer there, and sometimes there ends up being another smaller patch later to correct if something got missed - so re-check on patch days if you are having issues.

eq could change literally anything and it would require the way MQ interacts with that portion of EQ to be completely reworked. It is normally just offsets, sometimes struct changes --- with the large changes eq has been making over the past few months (updates and backend improvements) there are more things than just offset changes that are happening, so it can certainly be a lot of work for the devs.

Curious when Very Vanilla will be updated?
You'll get a web notification (if we have permission), site notification, and email (optional)

MacroQuest for Live servers:
MacroQuest for Test server

EQ patches go like this: (in theory)
2nd* tue/wed = test "real" patch
3rd* wed = live patch
4th* tue/wed = test "true up

the tue over the wed is a more recent thing (I suspect klanderso has more to do with that, and having time to ensure working stuff before the weekend and upset people - klanderso is pretty awesome)
* holidays subject to cause shifts in days or even week

test is notorious for being like "oops we forgot the 'dont crash plz' file, gotta patch again", or "woops we added +1 to crashing, we meant -1", so "on paper" it is double the patches, but very frequently ends up being more than double the work (i imagine, I'm not doing the work - I'd love to learn enough at some point to help facilitate doing so, however)

Mq itself is open source and by volunteer(s) - RG which builds and distributes that is obviously paid for.
If you wanted to show your appreciation to the MQ devs for their volunteer work:
