Logging mob pops while AFK?

[Wolfborn]

Is there a way to log mob pops while being AFK?
I'm trying to catch my epic pop in PoFear and I think it's on a 3 or 3.5 day spawn timer.
Would be nice to have a separate account sitting in Fear, recording when mob pops and when it was taken down so I can be there for the next round.

I have checked out MQ2Pop but it doesn't seem to be able to write to a log file.

Riot.. I had the same idea so wrote a little mac to log spawns based on Named or Normal. Can do either or both.

 |========================================================
 |       Simmple Macro to record when named mobs pop in zone
 |       Requires MQ2Pop plugin -> "/plugin MQ2Pop load"
 |		 Writes to PopTimer.mac.log on the /logs folder
 |       Writen by Wolfborn
 |
 |       Uncomment "#event Pop" line to record all spawn pops  
 |==========================================================
 
 #event Named           "Named > #1#"
 | #event Pop             "Pop > #1#"
 
 
 Sub Main
   /echo >> Named mob spawn logger is running.
   :mainloop
   /doevents
   /goto :mainloop
 /return
 
 Sub Event_Named(Line,PopName)
|  /echo ${PopName} has spawned
   /mqlog  >Named< ${PopName} has spawned
 /return
 
  Sub Event_Pop(Line,PopName)
|  /echo ${PopName} has spawned
   /mqlog  >Normal< ${PopName} has spawned
 /return

You could write a super simple macro that checks for a spawn and writes to an ini file when it spawns then does another write when it is killed. Or just /echo it to the MQ window and do some /beeps so you know the spawn is either up or recently killed.

Sub Main
:loop
/if (${Spawn[NAME].ID} > 1) /call Pop
/goto :loop
/return

Sub Pop
/echo ${Spawn[Name].ID} is valid at ${Time.Time24} on ${Time.Date}. Waiting for kill time.
/beep
/beep
:here
/if ($!{Spawn[name].ID}) {
/echo Spawn[name].ID is no longer valid. Killed at ${Time.Time24} on ${Time.Date}
/beep
/beep
/beep
/beep
/return
}
/goto :here
/return

Or something like that. Just turn on mq2 logging and you'll be able to backtrack your mq logs if need be.

I haven't looked into this recently but the spawn tracking plugins are

MQ2SpawnMaster
MQ2Spawns
MQ2Targets

You could also just write a VERY simple macro to do something like

sub Main
:SpawnLoop
/if ( ${Spawn[EPIC MOB].ID} ) {
    /beep
    /beep
    /beep
    /end
}
/delay 60s
/goto :SpawnLoop

MQ2Pop writes to the MQ2ChatWnd doesn't it? If so just load MQ2Log, and it will log everything that goes to the MQ2ChatWnd to mq2folder/logs/mq2chatwnd.log

Had some free time so wrote a little mac to record to log file.
Can log named, normal or both.
It only tracks spawn times.. not kill times.
Will work on that

edit: Looks like MQ2SpawnMaster does everything including logging.
