Is there a working profile for expedition like M13

[razgort]

Hi,

Like i said in the title i'd like to know if there is a working profile for expedition like M13 or if there is not some advice on how to make one.

DD has a guide on how to make your own profiles. It should have some useful information to help get you started. https://www.thebuddyforum.com/wildbuddy-forum/wildbuddy-guides/229840-guide-profilebot.html

There is not much on this doc for example, how do you get the map id for a profile ? To make the character tp to it via the instance menu

 

[themarketguy]

you'd probably need some custom behaviors to teleport to it via the instance menu and I'm not even sure if any instances are meshed. I believe PVP instances are not, so it's possible the same applies for expeditions/adventures/dungeons. As for getting map id you can do so by doing a dump of a creature in the map you're looking at (there's probably a better way also) target something and hit Alt+Shift+D to get a dump to the wildbuddy window, mapid will be one of the attributes that is dumped.

so, there is no way to make shiphand profiles without these meshes?

shiphand running would be THE number one selling point of this bot. you could level characters solely through shiphands (maybe not THAT fast, but it'd work) AND make 4-6 plat with shiphands, all with just a few simple profiles.

and the best thing about it: all instanced solo content, without any chance of people reporting you. why isn't that already implemented? that would make this bot pretty much a must have and incredibly awesome.

The bot already contains everything you need to farm shiphands, you just need to put in a tiny bit of effort.But i guess you need/want everything handed to you on a golden platter.

Having everything you need and knowing everything you need are two completely different things. If I bought a car, and instead of driving off the lot I got all the parts and tools to build a car with a rough sketch of what it should look like from the salesman with the quip you just made, I'd be more than a little ticked off. It's not a tiny bit of effort if you've never used a buddy bot before, if you aren't familiar with looking at XML, and if the instructions on how to put it all together are being pieced together.

I'm not really trying to come down on you MrUnreal, but for me all of this stuff is new and confusing and there is very limited guidance on how to not make it so, and I'm sure it's that way for plenty of others trying to use this bot. I'm appreciative and thankful that there are people who DO know more and are friendly and helpful and willing to share what they've made, but it doesn't change the fact that there can be frustration over not currently having the knowledge to make the bot do what I want it to do. I want to farm expeditions as much as anyone, but for me it means learning a whole new set of skills and its frustrating. I agree with snue, that having profiles that farmed expeditions would be a HUGE selling point, it would be lucrative to the person using the bot, it would keep botters flying under the radar from being reported, and it would sell more copies. I don't expect it to be handed to me, and his comment didn't sound like he was either. Just take it easy on the people that were expecting to drive off the lot here.

TL;DR Making Wildbuddy do all that it's capable of doing is complex - ease up on those that can't breeze through to that point.

Hey while you guys are at it if you could help me find out how to go from the main city to another world without getting this after I load,

Attempting to generate path to X:-3544.163 Y:-878.0894 Z:-846.5808 from X:-28227.56 Y:-699.9589 Z:-28737.77
Could not find end poly at <-3544.163, -878.0894, -846.5808> [Success] Closest: <0, 0, 0>
Waiting up to 300 seconds for the interact creature to spawn.

That would be great thanks.

the question was if it is possible, refering to marketguys "I'm not even sure if any instances are meshed.". and the red marked sentence was "why isn't the POSSIBILITY to make shiphand profiles not yet implemented". i was not asking for profiles.

and i dont need/want anything. i'm giving honest advice for devs how to sell this bot like crazy with apparently just "a tiny bit of effort". i really do not NEED to give money to anyone, believe me.

additionally: even if i were asking for profiles - maybe there should be (especially if it is just a tiny bit of effort anyway) a few existing, working standard profiles (for example shiphands or daily zones). this would make this bot much, much, MUCH more interesting for people.

All parts of PVE are meshed in wildstar. Doesn't mean the mesh is perfect just like open world due to objects and other placements. PVP content isn't meshed.


Also you realize the second some one posts any public profile Carbine will know instantly. You think those grind spots people post publicly aren't watched? You don't think they come here and see what people are doing?


Even some of the best profiles people use on honorbot are not public. Think if they were how fast bans would happen. This isn't a huge game look at how many users we picked up in Free to Play? Not many.


I have already seen users in game botting in same spots for hours as players report them publicly in /zone. You don't think carbine goes back to those spots looking for people?


Few people on forums go into shiphands and grind mobs. They were banned for this before free to play. Carbine caught on or something.

Again, this is more of an endorsement FOR having expedition profiles. Instanced bots are a great deal less conspicuous.

I agree that the guidance available is limited, however it is very doable (hell i have been around only for a few weeks and i am quite happy with where I am at). I just find it quite rude to the devs to claim its not possible to bot something that clearly is. Also please realize that they are devs afterall. There are features, bugs, tweaks and others they have to adress and therefore its quite unlikely they would spend time on profiles. Most of the profiles for most buddy products are created by the community, but due to the scale of the game I doub thats feasible for wildstar. Would you share profile you were perfecting for ages and ruin your farming spot while gaining nothing from it ? Quite unlikely isnt it .

I know they're the same thing - not sure why you singled this out.

My point was, having an expedition profile keeps other botters in one place, making a fair amount of plat but not an insane amount, allowing people to level when they're in that range, keeping them out of the general world where the bot can be readily reported and brought attention to, and keeping the casual botter away from and disinterested in the areas that the more savvy are going to be perfecting as their farming spot.

Oh right because bots spamming shiphand profiles (solo) is so natural that it wont bring carbines attention. First profile for a shiphand that gets released will bring on a tiny wipe of the population here. Do you actually want to play fish in the barrel with Carbine where you are the fish ? Keeping botters in one place ?

I don't think you get the REAL point here. They will be able to tell EVERYONE IS IN THE SAME INSTANCE!!!!! Nothing causal about that besides being STUPID.

I might as well post my account info and in game Toons on forums. Heck I might as well just tell carbine everything about everything.

Thats the point.

People are working on public profiles for questing and tons of other profiles. Even the bot has a built in plug-in under settings to help you create profiles. Lots of these features are being worked on and once are good guides and profiles will go out.

This bot is no where near abandoned and lots of people are putting in tons of hours so things work. No one is trying to start a witch hunt but grow the community.
