Havent been able to get back to my friend who i talk to on AIM about this stuff cause he hasnt signed on, but he compiled all the files for me over AIM and when i load MQ2 i get the error "Incorrect Client Version." Im fairly certain i have the wrong version, but im not sure, how do i fix this anyways if someone could help.

Do you have a compiler program? If you do RTFM!!! lol
nah i will help you ...

Compiling instructions
BEFORE COMPILING WITH ANY METHOD - Run MQ2Auth.exe (NOTE: IF YOU ARE COMPILING FOR SOMEONE ELSE, THEY NEED TO RUN MQ2AUTH.EXE. THE FILES MQ2AUTH GENERATES ALLOWS MQ2 TO RUN ON THE COMPUTER IT IS GENERATED FROM. THE GENERATED FILES CAN ALLOW MULTIPLE PEOPLE TO RUN THE SAME COPY, SEE THIS THREAD: http://macroquest2.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4291)
Visual Studio 7 / .NET - Select "Release" configuration (should be already set), hit Build All. All DLLs and the MacroQuest2.exe will compile to the release directory.
Visual Studio 6 - Load the workspace. Set MQ2Main as active project. Hit Build MQ2Main.dll (F7). Now do Batch Build (under Build menu). Make sure everything in the batch build window that says "release" has a check by it. Click Build in the window. All should compile with no errors or warnings.

You don't need a compiler program. If you've looked around, there's manual for a Virtual Server you can use to compile it.
