Newb questions

Hello everyone first and for most thank you for your time..

I am a old eq1 player who recently decided to start playing eq2 with some rl friends. Back in my eq1 days I enjoyed using some of Amadeus and lax's other projects it really enhanced my eq experience. I have been playing eq2 with just one account BOREING so yea it's time to get a couple more accounts and with that said I will need some automation for said accounts. OK so a couple questions.... I have searched the forums just looking for some clarification on a couple things and some advise from the pro's.
I am playing on a pvp server not by choice but that is where my RL friends already played on. From what I can gather the only functionally I am losing is the ability to track other players on radar is that correct? I am not a afk player I just like to play 3-4 toons so we have a full group with out having to play the grab random lfg player....

I used to run eq+3 party programs on multiple pc's. From what I understand with Innerspace + ISXEQ2 I can run multiple bot, macro toons on one machine? I.e. I like to control my main toon 100% but have my healer, slower, dps automated. Do I need more than one subscription/computers? How many computers/toons can I control with one subscription. This might be the wrong place to ask this question but dose innerspace offer the same features as WinEQ2? I.e. Picture in a Picture, video capture, dual monitor support.

I used to use one of the other radar programs on eq1 (don't want to break any rules by saying the name's) some of the functionally I really enjoyed is spawn timer's and alert's. Play a wav file or e-mail sms whatever if random epic 1.0 mob spawns! I hate long camps so far I have not come across this as much in eq2 thank you SOE!

Tradeskill, crafting, harvesting (I hate them btw) – just how much automation is included? so far I find the crafting and harvesting so bad I would rather have a root canal...

thank you. I look forward to joining your community and making my eq2 experience more than ~Yawn~

Your Innerspace subscription is a household license. Run it on as many machines as you like in your household. My family has 7 machines, we run it on all 7.


Your ISXEQ2 subscription covers 3 pc's in a 24 hour period. You can double your subscription to run on 6. If you want to run on more than 6, I believe you have to work that out with Amadeus one on one.

Depending on you're PC's you can run 1-4 eq2 sessions on each machine. Generally I run 1-2 per machine and have never run more than 7 at any given time, however I have the resources to feasibly run 12-14.

Eq2bot, Craft, Harvesting, all are fairly mature scripts, that with a little configuration do what you want. There is one spawn checking script, but there is so little need for it, its not popular.

Keep in mind, with eq1 the amount of data available to the client and via the stream was far, far greater. So, programs like you mentioned could do quite a bit more. In eq2, you don't get entire zone data sent to you, just things in a variable proximity around you. So, you can't afk at the zone in to watch for contested mob a, etc.
