issues with autoattack

[Brutality]

My character is completely broken. when i hit auto attack/flying kick.. my character attacks 1 time and kicks 1 time, but not ever again on that mob.. i switch to another mob rinse and repeat.. tried screwing with my hotbars and tried relogging.. anyone got any ideas?

You know that auto attack is a toggle and you leave it on to continue attacking correct? Are you trying to macro the keys or anything?

Side note: What was that monk troll classic page where the kid leveled exclusively from kick and thought auto attack was hacking? I want to say it was related to Fansy the Bard or similiar

[Brutality]

umm yes.. ive been playing EQ for almost 16 years never seen this before.. my character will attack once, kick once.. then after that everything stops working.. the mobs keep hitting me but my toon will not hit them.. nobody else is having this issue

[Brutality]

and when other people are hitting a mob i dont see its life drop until its dead

I get an auto attack bug occasionally when im turning it on and off too fast or switching targets and turning it on too quickly. You need to toggle it off then on again. This was pretty recent and likely occurred in the last updates. Not game breaking. Just pay attention to when it happens and toggle it on and off to resolve.

it seems it may be a targetting issue.. when i hit esc and drop target. then retarget the mob.. my toon will attack once again.. but then stop until i re target it

[Brutality]

seriously i cannot play like this.. any devs wanna help me out????

Sounds like a dual core issue. Try setting EQ to only one core.

Try running game as Admin and in compatibility mode?

I don't know if this helps you but... I had this problem, and this was my fix.

Hotkeys have been the same since level 1, and, no, none of my kick/taunt hotkeys overlap.

Anyways, I apparently found the problem. Earlier, I died in Lfay to a random brownie scout, and I didn't exactly know where I died, so I made a /target Apprentice's hotkey to find my corpse, and it was bound to W/S which are also my movement keys. I moved that hotkey off my hotbar, and, apparently, that was causing some weird conflict which didn't allow me to attack anything.

This is 99.9% something wrong or conflicting with your local client, connection or UI settings. Do a fresh install if the other suggestions don't work.

fixed problem by deleting my character files.. very annoying but...

[bigstuff]

Did they also happen in Pvp Brutality? I can literally stand in front of an AFK caster with attack on and not hit them for 5 - 6 seconds.

I'll try deleting my character files i guess.

I can almost guarantee that this is because of a targetting hotkey you forgot about. Happened to me once.

[bigstuff]

wow ok thanks man!!!! I will look into that.

Did you do this: http://www.eqemulator.org/forums/showthread.php?t=25327

Couldn't hurt to set eqgame.exe to run in xp compatibility mode, as well.
