MacroQuest is an open source platform for customization, enhancement, and automation of EverQuest. It's been modified for use on both official and emulated servers.

The project has gone through three major phases in its history: MacroQuest in 2002, led by Plazmic, which was announced in a forum thread that received no replies. Its popularity grew upon release, and began the era of the custom macroscript. MacroQuest 2 in 2004, led by Lax, a near complete rewrite that began the era of C++ plugins. And MacroQuest in 2021, led by brainiac, dannuic and Knightly, which brought an even larger rewrite that began the era of Lua scripts.

On RedGuides, MacroQuest is released as "Very Vanilla", with a focus on multi-boxing and automated assistance. Certain plugins deemed harmful are restricted, and the software is disabled entirely on "Truebox" servers.

MacroQuest can be built from source either by using the MacroQuest or OpenVanilla repository.

The official documentation for MacroQuest can be found at docs.macroquest.org

The parameters must be given in order, but any after varname may be skipped to use the defaults. Notes The default type is string The default scope is local The default value is nothing (empty string, or 0) These variables can be of any type that exist in MQ2DataVars. The variable will then have access to the members of that type.
/delay <#>[s | m] [<condition to end early>]	When used in a macro, fully pauses the macro for the amount of time specified, or until condition is met. Time can be specified in 10ths of a second (a number by itself) or in seconds (number followed by an "s") or minutes (number followed by "m").

/for <varname> <initial-value> to|downto <final-value> [step <interval>]	This runs all commands between the /for line and the /next line, after which it increments/decrements the varname number by step number (default is 1) before running through the commands again. It will keep doing this until the varname number equals the to or downto number. You can end a /for loop immediately with /break or try the next iteration with /continue.

/hud [ normal | underui | always ]	Defines how the HUD is displayed
/identify	Displays further information about the item on the cursor, similar to the spell Identify and item lore displayed by MQ in the item stats UI window.
/if <formula> {commands} [else {commands}]	This will run all commands between the braces ( {} ) if formula evaluates to something other than 0. Formulas are numeric operations ONLY. You must use MQ2Data string comparison to turn string comparisons into numeric operations (eg. Using .Equal or .NotEqual). You can use && and || freely within formula, which will be evaluated down to a single term before proceeding. Multiple commands may be included within the braces. There is no need to use ${Math.Calc[]} in /if statements, since the formula is automatically converted into numeric operations. Else and else /if can be used to further refine how/which commands are run. This will not work on some older versions of MQ2 (IE Jan 25, 2004) You will get a "Failed to parse /if command"
/ini "filename" "keyname" "valuename" "value"	Outputs string data to an INI file.

/keypress name [ hold | chat ]	Press the key "name"; where name can be an eqcommand or key-combination. This is used strictly for keys that are mapped by the EQ client, however /keypress will work with EQ binds as well as MQ binds (see /bind). /keypress does not actually press the key, it merely emulates the key being pressed, so it will not interfere with typing. /keypress usage outside of a macro is not recommended nor consistent
/listmacros <partial filename>	Lists all files in the "Macros" directory that match <partial filename>. Results are sorted alphabetically.
/loadcfg <filename>	Loads the specified .cfg file. (To use .cfg files, see this guide)

/mqanon [option] [anon_options]	Anonymization tool; filters specific text from display output. Be aware that Anonymization will only anonymize IN GAME! The character select screen will not be anonymized!
/mqconsole [clear | toggle | show | hide]	Brings up an external MacroQuest console
/mqcopylayout <charname> <server> [res:WxH] [nohot] [noload] [nosoc] [none]	Intelligent copying of EverQuest's UI layout. By default all options are copied at the windowed resolution.

/popcustom [<#color>] [<#seconds>] <message>	Creates an in-game overlay message
/popup <text>	Displays text in the center of your screen. Currently the text is a fixed font and color. If you desire a custom color or display duration you may perform this modification using a new command via the /popcustom commnd

/removeaura <name>	Will remove the specified aura. Partial names accepted.
/removebuff [-pet|-both] [=]<name>	Will remove a buff or song of the given name, with or without quotes. Can work on current toon, -pet, or -both. By default it does a partial match, but you can force an exact compare with the equals sign.
/removelev	Will remove any levitation in the buff or shortbuff window.
/removepetbuff [=]<name>	Will remove the specified buff or song form your pet, with or without quotes. By default it does a partial match, but you can force an exact compare with the equals sign. Same as using /removebuff -pet

/sellitem [#]	Sells the selected item. If # is specified it will sell that # of a stacked item.
/setautorun <command>	Creates an ini entry in Macroquest.ini that performs a command automatically after entering world. This may be deprecated in favor of .cfg files.
/seterror [<error>]	Sets MacroQuest.Error to the specified error. If no error given, /seterror will clear MacroQuest.Error.

/squelch <command>	Executes <command> while preventing MQ output from that command.
/substitute list | <orig> [delete] | [<new>]	Allows you to create custom midline substitutions. They can be called from any alias or commandline by using the percent sign (%).
/target [<name> | group <1-6>]	Targets <name> or group member <#>. MacroQuest currently intercepts this command but this is deprecated, so MQ users please use /mqtarget, or for original function /eqtarget
/taskquit [<name>]	Leave your shared task. MacroQuest extends this command to add support for solo tasks with <name>. Exact match only, quotes not needed.
/timed <#> <command>	Executes command after a specified duration, given in deciseconds.

/unload	Unloads MacroQuest
/useitem <slot> [subindex] | <item name>	Activates the use effect on items, either by exact item name or slot number. MacroQuest extends <item name> to allow partial matching.

/varcalc <varname> <formula>	Sets a variable directly to the numeric result of a calculation (formula). Keep in mind that the type of the variable may itself reject this value depending on what you give it. This will not work on strings!
/vardata <varname> <new datatype value>	Sets a variable directly to the end result of a datatype string. To use this, do not put ${} around the outer data to parse. This is more efficient than using /varset as it skips a step. For example, /varset first converts the MQ2Data to text, and then back to MQData. /vardata converts directly through MQData.
/varset <varname> <new value>	Sets a variable directly to a new value. Keep in mind that the type of the variable may itself reject this value depending on what you give it. To clear the value of the variable, you may omit the new value.

MacroQuest intercepts the current-zone version of this command and instead gives options to Spawn search and sort.
/whofilter <lastname | class | race | body | level | gm | guild | ld | sneak | lfg | npctag | spawnid | trader | afk | anon | distance | light | holding | concolor | invisible> [on | off]	Toggles the display of the specified spawn(s) when using /who
/whotarget	Displays a /who lookup for the targeted player. MacroQuest extends this to include NPCs.
/windows [ <name> | open ]	Lists available UI windows (they are usable with /notify). An easier way to search windows is with the Window Inspector, found in the Command:/mqconsole GUI.
/windowstate <window> [open|close]	Toggles windows open/closed. Use /windows for a list of windows.
/yes	Clicks "yes" on in-game dialogues and popups. Technically not a command, this is an alias that's included by default.
