MacroQuest
ARTICLE UNDER CONSTRUCTION
EZServer is a boxing server. Most people on this server play either 6 or 12 characters. In order to do this efficiently, and without completely losing your mind, you have to use a character management system. Enter MacroQuest.
MacroQuest, along with EQBCServer, allows you to use one character to remotely control all of your other characters. It also allows you to do a few tricks that would not be possible without it.
Installing MacroQuest
1. Download Macroquest. Select "Underfoot" for Client, and "Classic" for build, then click download
2. Extract the files to a new folder under your EverQuest directory (or any location you can remember)
2. Run "MacroQuest2.exe" and "EQBCServer.exe" before launching client
Uses for MacroQuest
Dynamic Map
MacroQuest populates your map with the location of all NPCs in real time. - you can right click the NPC on the map to target it
Target
"/target NPC" - Targets any NPC in zone
Example: "/target skeleton" - targets the nearest NPC with "skeleton" in its name
Stick
- This is a MUCH better version of /follow from EQLive.
- add "uw" after stick to make characters look down when sticking, this helps with water following or levitation (e.g. "/stick uw")
- add a number after stick to specify the distance to follow (e.g. "/stick 1" -or- "/stick 20")
- add "behind" to stay behind an NPC (useful for rogues, or to avoid rampage damage) (e.g. "/stick behind")
- Any of the above commands can be combined (e.g. "/stick 15 behind uw")
Sending Commands
- /bcaa //command - Sends a command to all of your characters, INCLUDING the one you are currently on
- Example: "/bcaa //stick 10" - make ALL of your characters stick to what they are targetting at a distance of 10
- Example: "/bcaa //stick 10" - make ALL of your characters stick to what they are targetting at a distance of 10
- /bca //command - Sends a command to all of your characters, EXCEPT the one you are currently on
