I searched a bit and couldn't really find anything. I probably deserved to be slapped in the face for posting this, but oh well. =p

What I am looking for is a _plugin_, not a macro, to output all text recieved by the EverQuest client to an IRC server, both from the normal window and the MQ window if possible. I am thinking I would need to mod MQ2IRC to do this, or something. =\

I need a plugin for this and not a macro because I am running various macros on the computer that needs the text outputted.

I guess I could add a subroutine of some sort to the macros that I am running, but then I would likely have to deal with bugs, decreased stability, or an decrease in macro/computer speed.

Does such a plugin / MQ2IRC mod exist?

Or am I being really noob and missing something that MQ2IRC already incorporates?

Pretty sure MQ2Telnet does something real similar. Never used it though, so not 100% sure

I already tried setting up a local telnet server and encountered difficulties. =\

IRC is a much cleaner way of doing this and I am not very familiar with telnet.

In addition, I want to have this going on more than one character at a time and I'm not familiar with a way to partitian off the text within telnet, whereas in IRC I could have each character on a seperate channel.

OnIncomingChat

... Obviously OnIncomingChat is used to do this, but unfortunately, I have zero C or C++ programming experience. But if you wanted me to try and do it myself, here is my pitiful attempt. =p

Code: Select all

#include "../MQ2Plugin.h"


PreSetup("MQ2IRCOutput");

PLUGIN_API DWORD OnIncomingChat(PCHAR Line, DWORD Color)
{
	 
   if (MQ2Globals::gGameState != GAMESTATE_INGAME) 
      return 0; 

	HideDoCommand(GetCharInfo(),"/i say $Line",FromPlugin);
}

I know $Line isn't anything. That is just where I want the string output to go, obviously. Should I be using strstr? Somehow I know I'm not even close here. ><

Code: Select all

#include "../MQ2Plugin.h"


PreSetup("MQ2IRCOutput");

PLUGIN_API DWORD OnIncomingChat(PCHAR Line, DWORD Color)
{
	if (gGameState != GAMESTATE_INGAME) return 0; 
	CHAR Temp[MAX_STRING]={0};
	sprintf(Temp,"/i say %s",Line);
	HideDoCommand(GetCharInfo(),Temp,FromPlugin);
}

i don't know if you would have to strip any other code from the eq text, but that should work i think! also don't forget to add plugin initialization and shutdown

Code: Select all

HideDoCommand((PSPAWNINFO)pCharSpawn,Temp,FromPlugin);

actually the problem is that HideDoCommand takes a pointer to spawninfo as argument, not a pointer to charinfo =p i had never used that function ever

what i would do is

Code: Select all

HideDoCommand(GetCharInfo()->pSpawn,Temp,FromPlugin);

actually the problem is that HideDoCommand takes a pointer to spawninfo as argument

Which is what I posted.
