In game make sure to filter your gameplay!!

Alt + O ---> Filters ----> Check most of that crap to HIDE 

^^^^ ---Do this first before proceeding PLEASE!!

And onto what most people don't know about MQ2! Inside MQ2 it has its own filtering as well!


This will filter anything starting with "texthere"
/filter name add texthere


This will filter "texthere" if it is found ANYWHERE in a text line!!
/filter name add *texthere


If you cant comprehend how this helps here are some examples!!

Inside the Macroquest.ini file this is what it shows up at the very bottom after typing them in.. if you have alts online you either need to re-zone or reload to have this changes come into effect!


[Filter Names]
Filter1=*beams a smile
Filter2=You strike through
Filter3=*was hit by non-melee
Filter4=*face contorts with rage
Filter5=*begins to glow


Explanation of each....

*beams a smile === Any stupid SK or Necro pet lifetaping that emote will be GONE
You strike through === In game filter DOESN'T correctly filter this .. but MQ2 does!!
*was hit by non-melee === In game DOES filter this.. HOWEVER!! Slaying an enemy it will show the killing magic blow... but MQ2 will FILTER IT!!
*face contorts with rage === Scepter filtering .. i just personally like this to be filtered out!
*begins to glow === No more Your UCv2 begins to glow crap.. helps a lot!



I am thinking of adding a few more filters like...

Filter6=Your spell did not take hold
Filter7=Your target is too far away


Those 2 are also very spammy

Hate has an SQL file on his server that will clean the current spells file of all "cast on other" "cast on you" and spell visuals and stuff, but I doubt most people will know how to run it.

Few other phrases that I filter out.

tries to cast a spell on you
you resist
grins evilly
ripped apart by a ninja
daggerfall iii
blessed by a holy knight
encased in core fire
struck by the spear of
your target resisted
bathed in chaotic
the chorus
the war march
the magical energy fades
the crystalline scales
touch of vivification
executes a flurry of attacks
lightning dies down

for those of you who dont run mq2 for whatever reason ... you can filter ur spell damge into a seperate window and minimize it ... if you hit the max cache size allowed in your ui it will reset that window (close it) and start sending it back to the main chat window ... this is not a fix by any means but it does work from desyncing about 75% of the time ...

thanks man u def cleared up some spam in my windows =)

I'm sure this would be fine copy pasting it directly to the Ini

Set topic to sticky. Make sure you make yourself lag free for Halloween, going to be a big boss taking whole server to kill.
