Log files are great for all sorts of things that would require a large data set. Attempting to reverse engineer the AC formula, verifying dps (how much worse is a rusty long sword than a cracked staff), other stuff I can't think of at the moment. In the OPs context it's tracking spell durations. So the program looks like "you begin to cast mesmerize" and then starts a timer for a duration of that spell (which the user manually enters i am assuming). It could also provide an alert if it reads "your mesmerization spell has worn off" in the log file. I don't know if Gina does this, but other programs would read the log looking for "you have entered so-and-so zone" then pull up a map of that zone, then look for a location from /loc and plot that on the map - giving you a real time plot of where you are in that zone (useful if you bind /loc to a movement key). You can do a lot with the log file. Also, old log files are where a lot of our community resources come from for re-creating quests, mechanics, etc. Logs are good, but also powerful

So parsers were classic (around kunark is when my anecdote took place, specifically remember him parsing us in Karnors at captain camp) but having on screen displays etc are certainly not. If someone can provide screenshots of such a thing then there can be no argument. I haven't seen one posted yet. The guys who are all about their GINA info have made the connection that because parsers were there then GINA is cool. Pound Sand otherwise. Edit: For the guys saying they did their own programs for timers, how did you get them to work while EQ was not in a window, were their any conflicts or was this done on an extra computer? | |||

Guide? Just ask someone for their GINA package files they spent hours creating. No reason to reinvent the wheel.

Logs are amazing for finding your corpse when you wake up hungover, finding the name of some guy who were supposed to get back with about whatever, searching for auctions after afking in EC for 6 hours, learning about combat and resists, tracking loot, all kinds of whatnot like that. | |||
