dont want to get banned but just wanted to find out looks awsome having maps would be a help

I am not familiar with this program but if it is reading reading EQ memory or anything other than log files then it is not allowed. The only programs allowed are ones that read the log files only and touch nothing else

EDIT: Looks like this program may only be a zone viewer. Was posted to Reddit


These are two other map programs that many use and are allowed that only read log files

nParse (Maps) if you like EQ style maps

ZlizEQmap if you like wiki maps

I've seen youtubers use map apps before, but I don't know which are allowed

Honestly, they're all probably legit. The easiest way (from a programming standpoint) to tell what zone you are in is to look at your log files. That's also the only allowed way.

To do it the banned way you'd have to watch someone's screen, parse the text on it, and then look for a zone loading message ... when (again) you could get that exact same info, already in text form, by just reading the log file. There's zero technical reason to even make such a program the illicit way.

(Now, if you wanted to write a program that, say, told you when a mob spawned, that would require the banned way, since mob spawns don't show up in log files.)
