You can share your /loc with anyone you want, whenever you want. Just because someone is building a tool to overlay the data onto a map != a hack. As said previously, this could have been easily done in 1999... the logic behind it is very simple. I await your jimmies to be rustled, followed by a TLDR. See ya around Chewster.. | |||

Yeah because lets all compare ShowEQ to a simple VB program, I don't see pc/npc names, hp, levels, designations on this do you?
[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] This simply parses a log file to look for a string for location(requires /log enabled, and you to keep using /loc in game to update your location) which then shows you on EQ-made maps where you are via a square color in relation to the zone. It doesn't inject into memory nor is it considered hacking. The GM's gave the greenlight that it was safe to use and would not be considered a hack long ago. This has been around for nearly a year, And honestly I don't even use it anymore because it was intended to help people who do not know their way around certain zones. Chewie and anyone else who thinks this is 'hacking' is just plain stupid, it was created to help players find their way around nothing more. Once they learn how to get through a zone enough times they do not need it anymore. Clearly this below is NOT legit amirite | ||

This is also plainly and clearly a violation of the spirit of server rules. I've already explained how this is an artificial advantage (especially on Red server where it directly affects competitive game-play). I strongly urge staff to make an declaration condemning the use of third party mapping programs. Quoted from Rogean: Quote:
Provides an unintended advantage to players who are using this to circumvent a feature removal, AND gleams access to information not otherwise available (live updated 100% accurate map location at-a-glance). If you can't see this is a clear violation of that ruleset, you fail. It doesn't not matter the method in which you hack the system, it's still a hack. Additionally, the possibilities of this hack go beyond simply seeing yourself on the map; the backbone of this program is already in a format to incorporate more advanced functionality. SET A PRECIDENT: Players, Guides and GM's : Say "No" to third party programs. | ||||

I'm chronically lost, in game and IRL. Often the only reason I made it to raids on time on live was because Selo's. But I probably won't be able to figure out how to make this map thing work, especially while playing on OSX. Why allow an advantage to some but not all?
