Title: Macro Legality Question
Post by: Jibekn on September 07, 2022, 06:53:29 pm
Are the following legal to use here:

MQ2Melee for melee ability usage?

E3? The macro used on servers like PEQ to semi-automate buff/rebuffing, melodies on bards, nuking/debuffing from casters?

if no to these, what plugins/macros are widely used here to manage control of 18-42 characters at once?

no MQ2Melee and no E3. Supposedly the current mq2 download listed in the guide has the mq2 plugins that you can use and has cut out all the ones you can't

I'm not sure which guide you are looking at, but the wiki page: http://wiki.ezserver.online/MacroQuest

Links to the macroquest download, and you need to select the EZ Server Classic build. That one does not include mq2melee.

Thing is what compile you use isnt really restricted, you just need to make sure you arent using plugins that arent allowed such as mq2melee and some others. That version was made to give a baseline of the plugins that are allowed to be used.

Sarthin has some good videos about how most of us control our characters on this server without using any of the plugins that are not allowed here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LR7AwrK7tpM&ab_channel=Sarthin

I used the direct download link in the getting started guide on the sidebar, it contains mq2melee, and the mq2 section of the wiki also has a 'how to use mq2melee' section.

This is why i was seeking hard clarification cos theres conflicting things posted different places and i just want to be 10 feet on the right side of the line :)

edit: i have the download you pointed out and yes, no mq2melee. the wiki needs updated to that link and the mq2melee section erased, thank you for the quick responses and links!

edit2: bad link is in this page: http://wiki.ezserver.online/Getting_Started
mq2melee section in this page should be also removed: http://wiki.ezserver.online/MacroQuest

Its good that you want try and be on the right side of the rules, but also our current active GM, Draca, isn't the ban first ask questions later type either.

If he sees you are doing something that you shouldn't be, on purpose or on accident, he's going to talk to you first and let you know. So you don't need to worry TOO much. Good luck and have fun  :)

I have corrected the download target, and removed the MQ2Melee information from the Wiki. Thank you for letting me know about those.
