Ok let me break it down for you guys that think you know about making wow bots but really dont. Most of the time when a patch comes out all the changes that are needed to be made is to update the Offsets to the new version of the client. When creating new software versions the hex binary code gets changed and reconfigured. Thus changing the Hex code of some of wow's engines functions. So what happens is devs have to go in and basically reverse engineer the new patch and update the new offset values in the bot of these functions that did get changed or added. Not all the time each patch does the values change on all of the values but some do usually.
So unless HB was adding a ton of new stuff or making changes with how the bot works from the previous version i dont see why you guys think it would take so long. I mean the core bot nothing should have to change. Maybe adding some new files to the Meshes. But its not like this patch just like broke hb's prior stuff it did it just has changed values so unless they are overhauling it i dont see why you guys would call it a major update.
Now as far as updating Offset Address's is pretty simple once you know how and what you are looking for or you could just goto OwnedCore and look at Apoc's post of updated offset's.
Also i could use a bots source code from say 4.0 and the bot will still work on 5.0.4 if as long i updated the offsets, and as long as the functions the bot used was still being used in wow's engine as well. Just like how you can still use or could still use Gatherbuddy 1 even though gatherbuddy 2 was out. There where no major changes really to the bots core except for having to update offsets.
