Incorrect Client Version

Post by Guest » Thu Oct 09, 2003 12:37 pm

Getting this message when EQ loads up. Up until last nite MQ was running smoothly with no problems. Today after patch I get this and MQ will not run. Any help as to how or what I need to do to fix this. I am using the lastest zip from 9-29.

Thanks in advance for help.

After a patch you commonly will need to download and recompile once the patch changes have been incorporated into a new version of MQ, or at the very least a new set of offsets have come out.

Thank you for answering my question. As a fairly new MQ user I was unaware of this. Had I have known that there would be a sarcastic post (refer to sticky at stop of forum) about asking a question, remember I said I was a new user, I would not have asked.

Thank you for pointing out that infact you do not want simple questions about your product.

It's a free product. Nobody cares if you use it and nobody cares if you are disappointed.

Thanks

You are correct it is a free product. I thought this was a help forum to ask a question. Obviously I am wrong.

A help forum which contains numerous posts therein explaining your problem if you utilize the "Search" feature on the forums and "read" the posts.

Also, this is the MacroQuest Macro Help forum. This forum is primarily for scripting questions. Your original post would have been better posted in the MacroQuest Help forum where questions about getting MQ running are usually posted.

I didn't think my tone in the announcement was sarcastic at all; it certainly wasn't intended to be. It was an attempt to answer your question while at the same time stopping that same question from being asked in a dozen different threads.

I've already counted at least 3 more threads asking the same thing, and received one PM about it. No telling how many PM's the other devs have received. And in case you are wondering I did answer that PM, and answered it politely.

If I came off as sarcastic or harsh I apologize, but like the rest of the devs, and most other users, I read every new post that pops up. Reading and answering this same question over and over again every time there is a patch eats time I could be using checking offsets, compiling lists of bugs, or figuring out why /mouseto and /click are or are not broken yet again.

Speaking of which, I now have to go fix locations.txt, since they added new buttons :)

Oh, and I moved the announcement to the MacroQuest::Help forum where it properly belongs.
