I set the options in Macroquest.ini as follows:

ShowMQ2News=0
ShowMMONews=0

However, the two news windows always shows the first time I arrive on character select. If I log in, then camp back out to character select, the news does not show.

Is this broken? This used to work for me.
 
There was some changes done November 7th on MQ2Main.cpp on our MQ2 version as our changes for this got added to main MQ2 core I believe. I'm not quite sure why it's not working right though, I'll have it looked into by htw.
 
What happened was core at some point (I didn't really research when, might be years ago LOL) added ability to turn off the MQ2 news window. I had added it to ours like waaaaay back.

The core option was named slightly different, so I removed ours, and left the one core had - and renamed the one I put for turning off MMOBugs news window to 'match' general format of the core MQ2 one.

What you want is:

CreateMQ2NewsWindow=0
CreateMMONewsWindow=0

You can remove the old ones if you want (ShowXXXNews), but having them in won't do anything.

I will update the wiki, I think it's in the general differences/additions area.

htw
 
Thanks, will test today. Also, sorry I put this in the wrong spot~ meant to put it in the other general. Was a late night.
