Answer: You can't balance your checkbook with a map.

Any pals need help getting a better "overview of your financial position"?

nope; none of that would require any program direct interaction with eqclient.exe (like MQ withoffset hacking).

Eqclient will accept a keystroke, whether it's from a keyboard or something else - i.e. keyboard macros, autohotkey, etc.

It would also accept mouse clicks at x/y axis coordinates, whether from a mouse or something else.

Lol. Good luck with that buddy. You're making a pretty far reach from data parsing and display to in-game manipulation via software keystroke emulation.

Damage parsers: classic and legal.
Game text triggers: classic and legal.
Leaderboards: classic and legal.
Mapper app: classic and legal.

It's funny that the first three listed haven't had a public outcry against them yet they are exactly the same thing.

Personally, if it were up to me, we'd all be playing on Pentium 3 machines running Windows 98, 3dfx voodoo graphics cards and shitty dialup that cut out every few hours. But that's not realistic and this isn't fucking 1999 where nobody knows that 15_year_old_dragon023 drops 15_year_old_pixel132 from killing it 3219 times before.

people use game text triggers on here?

yall sneaky mother fuckers.

Pretty good way to keep a visual reminder of the server tick imo.

Never said anything about in-game manipulation.

Not hard to make a macro for left mouse click on screen at X=1540 Y=620 to pick up an item from a bag, left mouse click on screen at X= 540 Y=1000 to drop it in an inventory slot, right click X=540 Y=1000, etc etc etc. The same macro clicks the same spots in Microsoft Excel; has nothing to do with eqgame.

Anyhow, this is getting silly. Say "no" to Mapper app.
