Oh yeah Gina is a sweet girl, when I first installed it I just wanted to get back the buff timers list most people, but I quickly discovered where it's reallly a game changer : EC tunnel.

Call me lazy if you want but reading auctions for hours to find what I need is REALLY NOT FUN.

what's it do? liek make a sound when someone auctions what you want so you can just park your mule in EC while you adventure?

Are there any add-ons that work with Mac? For those of us that are running EQ using Wine or a Wine variant, are there any addons that analyze the log that work for the Mac?

Honestly I always been curious about that, what do you risk if you get an ip exemption and sit a mule in the tunnel 24/7 afk. Do people get banned for that? I doubt it but no I don't have one I just respect the rules here.

I just park in the tunnel when I am not playing, and even if I am not there when the guy is auctionning I can try to catch him later. Not ideal but it beats spending my playtime reading auctions in a 18 years old game.

Two things. First off, if you're a fan of the "catch him later" approach to shopping I recommend using the ahungry and wiki auction trackers. Both will let you see who has /auctioned "WTS ____" recently, and then you can /tell that person at your convenience. It only works for times that people submitted logs for, but still that likely covers plenty of time when you're not sitting in EC.

Second, there are two ways to 2-box an EC mule. The illicit way, as you mentioned, is to get an IP exemption and then abuse it. If you don't want to get banned though there is a legitimate way to play on Project 1999 while simultaneously sitting AFK in EC, and that's to play the second account on Red.

Gina is for bad and/or lazy players that want to forever remain bad and/or lazy. Good players don't use it, nor do they need it.
I'm super bad at this game for using it to keep track of buffs and other bullshit. feelsbadman.

You sit in ec with whatever character you want. Have logs on so Gina can read them. Then you set an audio trigger for say, fungus covered scale tunic. Each time fungus covered scale tunic shows up Gina will make a noise. So you watch a movie or go play RnF or whatever and don't even look at ec until your audio trigger goes off.

Sirken has a good point though. Honestly, do you really need a program that keeps track of an 18 year old games buffs/dots? I mean, is it really that complicated?

I think we have become so reliant on apps and having glitchy constant beeps and shit IRL now that even the ancient unsullied wondrous game we know as Everquest needs to have additional outside stimulation for some people.

I agree. Feelsbadman. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Every time someone cites the age of the game as if it is relevant is really cringey [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
