Any interest in a map app that lets you see your location as well as your friends location in real time?

Not if it uses the logs to record someone's /loc and places it on the corresponding map.
I'd use this program. Would work definitely use it if you could manually put a loc in the map so that you can find your way to it.

Maps make bad players.

GMs slew maps, I can't imagine this being allowed.
Cool idea though.

It would only update when you /loc'd in-game if that was how it worked. Interesting idea nonetheless.

Can you just simulate the pvp as well? Too much work etc.

There is already a working log map recorder called EQ map viewer that the GMs have approved. Though it is self only, can't see other players but I know there are people who use similar programs to keep track of their friends/party/guild that run it also afaik its all legal as long as it isn't an actual hack. Reading logs is not cheating, it is taking a manual /loc or macro press reading it into log parsing it into a map to account for your location in that zone.

yeah man and weapon swapping hotkeys are totally legit because they just click somewhere on your screen and don't inject themselves into the client

a crazy guy in TMO (Loly) already half-developed a system like this
it's unfortunate that his code is some of the most convoluted I've ever seen

So I guess...
Software reads /loc info, puts it into map, and could also give /loc info to friends map clients with internet powers.
Also has keylogger to get account name and password.
Sounds solid.
