    Total noob read the instructions needs help

    Hello and stuff.. I downloaded mseq and went through the setup and read the getting up and running part as well. Anyways with some trial and error I finally got it partly working but its only showing dead mobs on the map for some odd reason.

    Here is a pic of the versions i downloaded, i am currently using the one with the maps included. (botton one)

    Anyways i figured out how to put in my ip address and had to run some little thing called server.exe and click on something called offset finder and point it to my eq directory launcher.exe file. It made some sort of a change to something (yeah i know that doesnt narrow it down much). Then i clicked myseq launcher and fiddled with the show this and that type stuff. I think I might have an old version?
    Basically I want it to show what rare mobs are on track and to play an alert sound when certain specific mobs pop up on its radar.

    Any help or step by step guide for dummies would be helpful. Also some links to the most recent version and maps etc.

    PS: Im on a progression server if that helps at all.

    That is the most recent version of the program. The built in offset finder has been unable find all the offsets for a long time, so is not very reliable. Someone usually posts the new offsets in this forum soon after they change.

    -Open up server.exe
    -Click the button Edit Offsets
    -Clear everything in the text window that opens up.
    -Paste in the following:

    # Using the new Debug CLI
    # =======================
    # To start the server in debug mode, run the server with the 'debug' argument:
    #
    #   myseqserver debug
    #
    # You will see the menu, which looks like this:
    #
    #        Debug Menu
    #  =======================
    #    d) display current offsets
    #    r) reload all offsets from INI file
    #  spo) set a primary offset   (index/name) (hex value)
    #  sso) set a secondary offset (index/name) (hex value)
    #   ez) examine raw data using pZone
    #   et) examine raw data using pTarget
    #   ew) examine raw data using pWorld
    #   fz) find zonename using pZone (zonename)
    #   ft) find spawnname using pTarget (spawnname)
    #   fs) find spawnname using pSelf (spawnname)
    #   ps) process a spawn entity using pSelf
    #   pt) process a spawn entity using pTarget
    #   sp) scan process names (process name)
    #  sft) scan for floating point using pTarget (X,Y,Z)
    #  sfa) scan for floating point using Address (X,Y,Z,Address)
    #  sfw) scan for world offsets using game date (mm/dd/yyyy)

    # To select a command, type it in and press Enter. Some commands require
    # arguments, which are indicated in parenthesis.
    #
    # If you are having troubling just accessing the EQ process, first try the 'scan process names' command:
    # > sp
    #
    # You can provide an optional process name to attempt to scan for and access, but if you do not provide
    # any arguments, then it will default to 'eqgame'. You will see a list of processes detected on your system
    # and if a match is found, it will try and access it, providing feedback on the results. Prior to server v1.19.1,
    # this was a case-sensitive match. For server v1.19.1 and higher, the check is case-insensitive. We had some
    # problems on a Win2K system regarding this.
    # 
    # When new offsets are needed, you can start the server in debug mode and it will use the
    # old offsets as starting points to locate the new offsets.
    #
    # The first thing is to locate the zonename. Just enter a zone that you know the name of, like the Bazaar,
    # and use the "fz" command along with the appropriate shortname for the zone:
    # > fz Bazaar
    #
    # You should see a list of matches. Anyone of them could potentially be a valid pZone value. Select one and
    # place it in the INI file above under ZoneAddr. Now press 'r' to reload the INI file into the debug server.
    # Press 'd' to verify your change was actually loaded.
    #
    # Next we want to locate the pTarget value, stored above as TargetAddr. Inside the game, select any target NPC
    # or PC other than yourself. It is best to select a uniquely named NPC, like "Boss Hogg". Do not select an NPC
    # with a re-used name, like "a rat". Now you need to determine the hidden name of that NPC. To do this, replace
    # any spaces in the name with underscores, and stick a 00 on the end. So "Boss Hogg" becomes "Boss_Hogg00".
    # Use this hidden name as the sole argument to the 'ft' command:
    # > ft Boss_Hogg00
    #
    # You should see a list of matches. Anyone of them could potentially be a valid pTarget. Select one and
    # place it in the INI file above under TargetAddr. Press 'r' to reload the INI file.
    #
    # Next we want to locate the pSpawnlist value, stored above as SpawnHeaderAddr. This is very easy once you have
    # pTarget done above. Simply select any target in the game and use the 'wt' command:
    # > wt
    #
    # You should see a long list of spawn information dump out. At the end, we do an automatic scan looking for
    # where that entry point pointer lives. You should see a list of matches. Anyone of them could potentially be
    # a valid pSpawnlist. Select one and place it in the INI file above under SpawnHeaderAddr. Press 'r' to reload
    # the INI file.
    #
    # Next we want to locate the pSelf value, store above as CharInfo. Inside the game, select yourself as the
    # target (press F1) and use the 'ft' command along with your characters first name:
    # > ft Yourfirstname
    #
    # You should see a list of matches. Anyone of them could potentially be a valid pSelf. Select one and
    # place it in the INI file above under CharInfo. Press 'r' to reload the INI file.
    #
    # Last we want to locate the pGroundItems value, stored above as ItemsAddr. Just use the 'sg' command and
    # look for matched pointers that look like 'ITxxxxx_ACTORDEF', where xxxxx is any 3 or 5 digit number.
    # > sg
    # Scanning for 'IT' from 0x7d62c4 to 0x9d62c4
    # Pointer match found at 0x8d62c4. Full string is IT10805_ACTORDEF
    # Pointer match found at 0x9bc648. Full string is ITORTOKEN
    #
    # Of course the first one here looks good. Put it in the INI file above under ItemsAddr. Press 'r' to
    # reload the INI file.
    #
    # You can now exit the server (press 'x') and restart it in normal mode. Try attaching the client to it.
    # As long as none of the secondary offsets have changed, it should work. If it only works for a short time
    # and then stops working, repeat the above procedure, but this time make different selections in the match
    # lists.
    #
    # If the secondary offsets have changed, or the basic design of how they obtain spawn information, the server
    # may need to be updated. The other debug options can be used to aid in locating secondary offsets, but it
    # is so involved that it is probably best to use a full blown RAM editor. Please visit our forums to learn
    # how to help ( http://www.showeq.net/ and look for the MySEQ subforums).
    #
    # Notes:
    # - All string searches are case sensitive!
    # - As you get matches, write them all down! If a function works for a minute or so and then stops working, try the
    #   next match in the list.
    # - If you use the spo/sso functions, the changes are NOT made in the INI file. Once you exit, those changes are lost.
    # - Only reverse walks (wt/ws) will scan for entry point pointers. Forward walks will just show the spawns and return.
    -Click File -> Save. Then close the text window.
    -Back in the Server, click the Reload button.
    -Try connecting with the client program again. (MySEQ.exe)

    Alerts are pretty easy to set up, and are usually done on a per zone basis. I keep a global one set though for Fabled
