Instancebuddy - A Premium Dungeon Finder Bot

Is anyone else having issues with stopping the bot while in instance and trying to load back up and it says
"This profile does not contain any profiles fitting the character!
Object reference not set to an instance of an object."?

I am using 1-60 new kalmidor grinding profile. works fine when I que and does fine until I stop it so I can roll for loot.
 
Problems for istancebuddy warrior.

Hi, I make a report to istancebuddy on the warrior that each time he kills an npc walking back to the casters and this can be very suspicious.
 
In the newer version of IB, the moving from hotspot to hotspot isn?t working correctly. I used the Prot Ensemble CC and also the Retribution, thats why i think it?s not caused by the cc. (but maybe of HB) Example: Everytime the Prot reaches the hotspot for example in the Armory, it focus dead enemies and stops moving. The version before of IB was working better in this case :).

I have tried using a different profile, doesn't help unless I am trying the wrong one. This happened to me while in mixed mode using BG's. With that one I can load actual BG profile and it starts back up. I can't do that with instance though

This isn't exactly a fix, but you can disable roll for loot in IB's options so you can roll yourself on every item.
 
Hey there Raphus, let me just start out by saying the I LOVE the work you've done with bot Instancebuddy and Ensemble(I have yet to give your BuddyCenter a try but I'm sure that's great as well!)

I've been using Instance buddy(and Ensemble) for the past week or so and haven't had any major problems, however today when I tried to start up IB both on my restro druid and my disc priest they wouldn't move. they'd cast perfectly and everything, just wouldn't move. at first I thought this was because the instances weren't meshed or somthing so I switched from nexus to another instance and the pathing worked. however I just started up my priest and it wouldn't path for Blood Furnace which I'd ran many many times before both on my druid an my priest.

this is the message it's giving me:

Code: 
Could not generate path from {332.5078, 133.1167, 9.619014} to {328.3428, 142.4316, 9.616816} (time used: 0 milliseconds) @ FindStartPoly

and it just spams that or a variation of that whenever the group moves out of range.

I've tried:
*stoping HB and starting it
*closing HB and restarting it
*doing a fresh installation of HB/IB/Ensemble
*and I'll try restarting my computer once this instance is over

But nothing has worked

Here's one of the many logs I have with the nav. bug

thanks again for all your great work!
-HoHv2

note: I switched from IB to "Combat/Heal Bot [1.0.0] after seeing the nav. error to see if the nav. would be fixed since it has a small nav. system but it didn't

note2: sorry for the long post xD

HB is not downloading instance meshes, not sure what the problem is but its very annoying.
 
yeah, I just noticed this a few minutes ago when using the grind mode. It was DL'ing meshes fine(but I was far away from the grind profile) so I stoped it and flew to the other side of the zone and started HB again and the same error happened =(

so I guess it's not just IB or instance meshes.

keep up the good work Raphus!

edit: I just did a fresh installation of HB and the Grind mode worked. I don't know if it was somthing at the HB mesh server or the fresh instal. but I'm not gonna stop HB to try'n figure it out xD

it would be really nice though if Raphus would close this thread and start up a new one I mean come on over 100pages to this thread, no one is going to read though all of that. If I wanted to read a book I would go to barns and nobles and buy one.

That is like saying we should start a new forum because this one has too many threads in it and you won't read them all.

The search feature exists for a reason, you know.

Well, i have not yet seen an option in the search engine of this forum to display the posts, so when you search for something you see the whole thread and when it has 50+ pages i can understand that people don't wanna read through that.
 
Is it safe to tank as paladin, lets say stonecore?

And then, with what profile?

I've only done TBC instances as a hunter, but i'd say you could try but be sure to BABYSIT it to make sure it works 100%.

If it does please report here

Hey guys - Devs - Etc.

So I've been using IB since it was first released. I've DPS/Healed just about every single instance that was scripted. This tool is invaluable when your needing gear upgrades and good XP. So - naturally when I saw that IB could support some instances in tanking I just had to try it out. Well, I have some constructive suggestions.

Enter Dungeon:
1. Looks at HP and Mana for each of the 4 other players. Checks to see if it can use bandage on them or cast a few heals. (Only if available.)
2. Waits 10 seconds if mana / health is clear.
3. Moves to pick up quests if any.
4. Preforms /ready-check (doesn't matter if your ready or not, its the fact that someones doing it)
5. Starts attack.

Tanking:
1. Please turn off the range finder - or have an option to turn it off.
2. Have the tank check mana of the healer, if above 50% then proceed. If not it gives a 5-20 second pause for heals to react and says a custom message such as "Mana?" or "U good heals?".
3. If all is OK in the group, healers mana is good, the tank should finish combat, wait 3-7 seconds and move onto next group.
4. Runners - DO NOT ALLOW TO CHASE PLEASE. If the target runs the bot needs to switch to next closest target.
5. Custom message - "cmon, let me pull guys" - This is used if someone pulls for the tank.
6. Aggressive, Average, Cautious - Identifies the fighting pattern.
:mad:Aggressive - Runs right to the mob. Starts tanking, does not give much attention to groups health and or mana unless below 35%. (May be set to chase runners)
:cool:Average - Runs to range of mob. Range pulls, gives moderate attention to groups health and or mana unless below 50%. (May be set to chase runners) May use instant healing spells to heal self and others if needed.
:confused:Cautious - Runs to range of mob. Range pulls, backs up 5-10 yards (adjustable) tanks in spot. Pays heavy attention to health and mana unless below 75%. May use instant healing spells to heal self and others if needed. Casts protection spells on healer.

Woops I pulled too much or that stupid mage doesnt know how to control agro:
1. Taunt? Can we make this work in CC's?
2. A custom message - "hey, wait for agro guys" - only repeated 2-3 times total with a maximum combination of 10-20 custom messages.
3. Add Detection - Picks up (or helps to pick up) adds that boss's may spawn.


Overall the complex pulls associated with cata in my opinion should not be done by a program. Its just too, decision dependent, for me. So - most fights up to 80 are straight tank / spank and easily done.

Again, I truly appreciate all the hard work the DEVs do and you guys deserve a lot more than what we give you.

If anyone has any constructive criticism to add to this, or would like to add / eliminate some aspects then please by all means do so.

Little Problem I have encountered

First let me start it off by saying this bot is AWESOME! It works very well except for one minor problem that seems to occur quite often, following the tank. I have noticed that your character will designate a tank and follow it within a certain range, unfortunately I think the range needs to be decreased due to a couple of instances where my character would not be able to follow the tank around a tight corner and become confused. I have tested this out with the current version .188 and both characters have gotten stuck around the same areas because they were not following close enough to the tank.
 
Quick question in regards to group queing

I am currently running a healerbot/dps bot for instance buddy in as a group. I have a holy pally (healing) and a Feral Druid (Dps) running instances together. It works great, however, at the end of the instance they fail to rejoin the que as a party. I have selected the "rejoin as party function" on both HB's but it continues to sit in the dungeon and not reque the party.
