My Compiler VC++ 6.0 is saying:
--------------------Configuration: eqlib - Win32 Release--------------------
Compiling resources...
C:\Macroquest\EQLib.rc (97): error RC2104 : undefined keyword or key name: IDS_LOADED
Error executing rc.exe.
eqlib.dll - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
--------------------Configuration: eqlib - Win32 Release--------------------
Compiling resources...
C:\Macroquest\EQLib.rc (97): error RC2104 : undefined keyword or key name: IDS_LOADED
Error executing rc.exe.
macroquest.exe - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
which of course isnt letting it build...Any ideas on how to fix it. I did a search and didnt find anything on it.
Thanks much for the help.

When compiling Macroquest with Visual C++ 6.0:
1. Be sure to load the file macroquest.dsw
2. Click the FileView tab (if you can't see it, press alt+0 to see the WorkSpace)
3. Two sections should be found in this tree, one called "eqlib files" and the other "macroquest files". (they are the "root" directories of each project)
4. Right click one of these sections and select "Build" on the popup. Do the same for other section.
5. Be sure no errors or warnings appear. If any, post them below.
6. Find and run the compiled macroquest.exe file. A shield should appear in your system tray (near your windows clock)
If you did those 6 steps and still get that error, redownload the IRC-Release and retry again. If you STILL have a problem, post here and hope a real dev techie comes in and helps you ^^

IDS_Loaded not defined.
-Edit
Same error as before in my previous post and does it for both things when I try to compile.

You're missing an include file someplace. IDS_LOADED is part of the dll injection routines, routines which occur in both MacroQuest.exe and EQLib.dll.
Check your paths. VC6 doesn't set the path statement correctly a lot of times when you install it.
MQ2: Think of it as Evolution in action.

IDS_LOADED is defined in resource.h in the eqlib directory.
What is in your resource.h file?

That is the header file in the eqlib. MQ files doesnt have a resource.h file and asks if I want to make a new one if I try to open it.

How did you get the source?
You are missing the resource.h in the eqlib directory.

Dude, if you can't master a zip file, how are you going to write scripts?

You posted the resource.h file from the mqext directory.
What program are you using to open the zip file?

Using win zip 8? I believe.
Ask me to overwrite certian files, so I made a few directories and said yest to all and no to all...Neither work...although one of them it asks if I want to overwrite is resource.h
