July 21 2015 "This version of FF14 is not yet supported"

[schopenhauer]

I believe the mechanism is related to game client version number. Memory offsets within the game may or may not have changed, but it doesn't matter. Any update to the FFXIV client ends in a appended/changed client version number. As a mechanism for protection against changes, the RB client must match the game client version it was intended for in order to function.

That's a possibility as well.

You don't know what your talking about memory locations were not changed.
how do YOU even know that.. you are just guessing. Cut it out and don't troll.

And you're the dev for RB?

It's not only about adjusting some values.

The single dev can't be online 24/7.

man this guy deserve to be ban

 

[Mr McGibblets]

He is toying with all of you. He has been around for a while and has also written plugins/profiles for the bot. Besides the fact that his join date is 2010, last patch we had somebody post a similar thread mocking the normal threads that come up. This I think is the new norm. Somebody posts a joke thread in hopes that an actual thread complaining doesn't show up. Easier to handle one thread about it than 20 others. Hence him dating the subject and everything.

Bot is updated now tho... go play!

 

[y2krazy]

Regardless if DarkShado is trolling, for those that legitimately feel the bot shouldn't have been down:

There are plenty of checks that are required to take place after a patch in order to provide a safe and functional bot. Just because nothing "sticks out" in patch notes does not mean changes behind the scenes are never required. Just because you don't see what mastahg (or any other bot developer) has to do before releasing an update after a patch doesn't mean they didn't have to modify something that SE changed. As schopenhauer and xployt mentioned, something simple like offset increments, while simple in nature, still require verification.

It's a safety measure, people.
Anti-bot features don't get announced; and if any memory offsets changed, the bot could lead into unexpected behavior that could tip off the game company.

A bot will ALWAYS be offline after a patch until someone has looked over the patch and gave it the OK to run, EVEN if the old version would run without any modifications.

Cut it out and don't troll.

I see what you did there

Troll thread closed.

For those that are new to RebornBuddy, here's what's going on:

The bot has a very long history of being patched in a timely fashion—both after a patch, and to improve the feature set.

The Community is tired of this trolling. Future such threads will receive infractions.
