Development Priorities

Does this happen with orderbot or old gathering?

It happened to me today with Orderbot. Was stuck at a node and it couldn't grab it so it spammed the Mount Chocobo, dismounted, and then repeated for about an hour because I am one of the dumb ones that leaves their bot unattended lol.

In the past it has happened with Gatherbot, but I see Gatherbot going away soon because of how advanced Orderbot is with Gathering.

could you get me a picture of the node and how the character was positioned. also log file please

It will take me a few days, don't know if anyone saw me but I'm playing it cool for a couple of days. Log file I can get you ASAP. Apparently in the log file I slept a lot longer than I thought hahaha. 5 hours I was stuck at that spot.. I may see a 72 hour ban soon lol.

Give the map name (South Shroud, Western Thanalan, etc.)and the coordinates (use your mouse to point to the spot, coords are @ the bottom of the map). That way someone else can get out there and check it out.

Been keeping an eye on this as well. Order bot gathering has hung while in a node on and off since i started using it. It has happened three times in the last couple of days, but this is the first time I grabbed a shot. Stopped the bot directly afterwards. Please let me know if you need more instances and I'll start grabbing more shots.

These don't seem to work, FYI. Says "invalid attachment specified"

Any eta on the crafting side of this. I currently have a crafting bot that just does key presses (wont give the name so it doesn't seem like I''m trying to advert) But the down side is that its a different bot program.

I have asked this too, recently. Basically, no ETA is what was said since the developement is run by one person.

I am working on maxing my crafts while I still have a sub to that other bot. Since this one is a lifetime membership I am hoping that they add it sometime in the interrim.

I only have experience with Teleport hacking in WOW and was doing it in dungeons and got banned within a month. I switched over to HB never received a ban or suspension and I would bot 24/7 on WOW that made me a Buddy Bot user for life.

So its really not about morals but the safety of your account and I feel the way Buddy Bots are made are safer then any other bot out there.

if you bot 24/7 in wow your time is coming. thats one of their first and main indicators for autoban triggers. Common sense dictates no human can play for more than maybe 30 hours and then their would be substantial downtime while he slept it off. You could argue someone else was playing but then you'd violate EULA anyhow. We all do appreciate additional negative attention being drawn to botting though!

People dont realize, you affect everyone when you do this selfish shit. i digress.

 

[klepp0906]

why is that? isnt relogging a pretty important feature?

never understood how people could or would even use this. Its never compatible with an authenticator and without one, nowadays your just askin to be jacked by the bastard chinks. Sometimes it begins to feel like they literally target US gamers. Really crooked buncha bastards over there for being 120lbs soaking wet.

 

[klepp0906]

so we should bot only when we are around the computer. sounds intuitive man

exactly! sounds very safe to me But on a more direct note, sort out why your crashin and it would be irrelevent no? I know i personally hate when people say this... but im sure not crashing. Which IS relevent in this case because if it were a bot issue their would atleast be a few people griping about it.

Alas, im gettin off topic.

If your overclockin check your ram voltage.

Hi mast, could I put in a vote for materia convertion and equipment change development?

desynth would rock. but the poor guys list is growing and growing. I still cant understand why you dont have more devs helping you. this is THEE best or second best mmo on the market depending on whether your young and base quality off of sub numbers, young and base quality off of graphical prowess, or mature and base quality off of quality of gameplay and purity of genre.

I just dont get it. Wish i could contribute, but the more and more i say i want to learn to code (not just as a hobby, i went to college for electrical engineering and essentially got into hardware when i should have gotten into networkin or software. Theirs just MUCH more work) but i always end up gaming as i know its going to be a long endeavor to even begin self teaching.

FTR if anyone can recommend a good resource or starting point - im all ears. Im still stuck on what the ideal language is to learn. It would rock to be able to write iphone apps. Would be awesome to be able to contribute to bots. Would be awesome to learn a widespread useful language that will make finding work easy. But it would also be awesome to learn a niche language that is rare or challengin as to be "one of the few" persay.

Quite the pickle as you can see.

 

[klepp0906]

Have not even touched them yet. Theres a bunch of low hanging fruit that needs to be grabbed before i go on a rampage modifying the mesh system to support jump points to make the bot look humanlike in frontlines.

that hurts my soul. Deeply.

FFXIV authenticator is only on the initial boot, you can relog without an authenticator if you just got 90k'ed. I personally use an image recognition macro to relog when I 90k or 10105 but I understand if it isn't everyone's cup of tea.

With the changes to marks in 2.35, I think hunt log might be the next thing that i will be working on.

 

[Yayan]

you mean hunting logs or "the hunt" ?

 

[mastahg]

"The hunt"

 

[Yayan]

Cool. both are different things.
When you said Logs I thought you meant the hunting logs that could easily be written as a profile if they were needed.

But with the hunt being a daily / weekly thing would it be that great? It limits what you can get a day and takes 10-15 mins if done by hand anyway. (bar the A + S rank ones)

I know I have asked before and I must be getting tedious, but wouldn't working on Frontlines be more beneficial?
It can be farmed for soldiery and may pave way for a duty bot?

Botting in BGs in WoW is the #1 way to get banned (well, that and gathering, but that's due to shared nodes and the heavy policing they do). I'm sure it wouldn't be much different here in FFXIV. Even if mastahg did develop a Frontlines feature I don't know if it'd be smart to use it. Just IMO.
