Running in background?

[qlithe]

Hey, i just botted while playing another game. When i went back to wow after an hour or so, the bot had killed like 10 mobs. I use to kill ~300mobs/h with the same profile and settings. I thought it could be run in background without any problems?

The log was filled with this during the period:

did you played a steam game? if so the gameoverlay of any steamgame makes it impossible for the bot to run

 

[qlithe]

nope, aoe2

Not sure what you mean by 'background'. You may not minimize the WoWclient window--Windoze fails to deliver all the events it should if you do that.

If you run another game, that game must also be windowed--you cannot run it in 'full screen' mode either, otherwise Windoze fails to deliver all the events it should.

cheers,

Ah, well i run my wow in windowed mode and simply started the other game, not sure if wow gets "minimized" then?

That's interesting because all the other games I play while botting are all steam games. Assassin's creed 2 , Fallout New Vegas, Mass Effect 2 etc...Lately been playing plants vs zombies a lot though
Before playing other game though, I set graphic settings in WoW to minimum and make it run in non full screen windowed.
