Issues with 0.1.820.4

[kenjou]

HI there

I have several issues with this build

1) There seems only to be a working debug routine but that doesn't do much. I just uses default attack, nothing else

2) I go to Tools -> Item Filters -> and I see an interface with various pickup filters and stuff. I check Rare, Gem, Unique, Currency and press Save. Then a file "itemrules" gets opened in a text editor but in there, nothing seems to have changed. I save and quit the file and also close Item Filter popup. When I click again on Item Filter, the checked files before are gone.

How to use item filter properly?

3) There seem to be different vesions around. I asked about the LeapSlammer combat routine and the guy in there said I use a wrong version. Where do I get different versions? On the download page I only see 0.1.820.4

4) When I deactivate Aero the bot gui has serious issues and often doesn't display the item filter settings like rare/unique checkboxes, sliders etc.

5) Starting the bot gui takes like a minute or so in a VM on a SSD... why is that?

1) There seems only to be a working debug routine but that doesn't do much. I just uses default attack, nothing else

That default routine is setup for a number of specific spells/auras and defaults to standard attack when the others fail for whatever reason. If you open the file class1.cs you can see what is going on. If you want, like me, you can comment out the unwanted attacks, in the section private Composite CreateCombat(), such as "Cast("Frenzy", obj => ...", and replace it with what you need. You will need to make a corresponding

What I did was add icespear before icepulse and the default action; with these two entries:

private Composite CastIceSpear()
        {
            return new Decorator(ret => TargetList.First().Distance > 25,
                Cast("Ice Spear", obj => (PoEObject)obj)
                );
        }

and within private Composite CreateCombat(), I added the bolded line (you can see where I have commented out the firestorm and fireball as I do not use them.

					[B]	CastIceSpear(),[/B]
                        CastFreezingPulse(),
 //                       Cast("Firestorm", obj => (PoEObject)obj, ret => TargetList.Count(t => TargetList.First().Position.Distance(t.Position) < 8) >= 3), // this seems broken...
 //                       Cast("Fireball", obj => (PoEObject)obj),
                        Cast("Default Attack", obj => (PoEObject)obj)
                        )

2) I go to Tools -> Item Filters -> and I see an interface with various pickup filters and stuff. I check Rare, Gem, Unique, Currency and press Save. Then a file "itemrules" gets opened in a text editor but in there, nothing seems to have changed. I save and quit the file and also close Item Filter popup.

Should work. The process is correct. Try downloading a fresh EB and install in a different directory. You can always edit the file yourself..

3) There seem to be different vesions around. I asked about the LeapSlammer combat routine and the guy in there said I use a wrong version. Where do I get different versions? On the download page I only see 0.1.820.4

Not sure. I believe there is a beta and a stable. Ah.. here is the answer

4) When I deactivate Aero the bot gui has serious issues and often doesn't display the item filter settings like rare/unique checkboxes, sliders etc.

ok.

5) Starting the bot gui takes like a minute or so in a VM on a SSD... why is that?

Not sure. good luck.

5) Starting the bot gui takes like a minute or so in a VM on a SSD... why is that?

1) There are other routines being created. (The bot was just released, so things will pick up soon)
2) This has been fixed with the redesign in the Beta.
3) The download page only shows the Release builds. Please see the sticky in the main Exilebuddy forum about beta builds.
4) I assume this just has to do with how WPF is rendered. (Not sure why you would deactivate Aero though?)
5) Some VMs have issues with doing certain things. File I/O especially is very heavy with VMs as it has multiple extra layers to go through before writing to actual disk. Unfortunately, this isn't something we'll be checking any time soon. (It could also be related to general .NET and CLR slowdowns from running in a VM environment.)

Regarding Aero: If you run multiple VMs and each uses Aero it's a heavy tax on the system.
