You would believe the exp/h to be higher from doing 55's duo 1 full exp Heal monk, 1 Helltooth wd.(perfect gear para 1200+)

avg. 50B/H with turbohud after about one long night, about 9 hours.

If i go higher then 55b/h the killing is just getting to slow, Im even using Furance in weapon cube on Acid cloud wd.

I would expect it to be at least 60b/h maybe... i would get better exp with another class doing damage?

I was about to start doing that but the xp looks low to me... U only getting 50b/h =( damn... And what about bugs? Do u use a relogger, it works with it? (R-YAR)...

There is bugs ofc but i seem to made it work with alot of changes.

On the follower bot for example you have to remove all gems you dont use, once you have any lvl 50 gem maxed it wont work.

Just buyed a 3 license key just to use this plugin with my old 1 license key. It has been hard to set up everything, but now it's running fine with YAR relogger.

The only thing that it's not working fine is the upgrading of the gems gogok, boon of the hoarder, iceblink, and invigorating gemstone when they are level 50 (it's maximum level). For some reason, followers try always to level this gems instead of others. There is a temporal solution by not making this gems avaliable to the character. I've put the four gems in the inventory of another character, so followers get another new one and they can level these ones. I think that maybe that it's caused because all other gems are above level 60 and my bots are doing grifts level 40, so level up chance it's zero. So I will have to wait until my low bots get stronger so I they can do higher grfits...

Hello all, I was wondering if anyone can help me with a new issue. I know this plugin is not supported, but ever since the latest update, my followers no longer attack mobs that are by themselves that is being attacked by the leader bot. This is not an issue with elites/champions however. It's truly odd and I was wondering if anyone else is having this issue? I have mob setting to '10' in trinity settings for the leader bot and '1' for my followers. Would be great if the leader bot would actually skip a single mob, but sometimes it just wants to kill it for who knows the reason. Appreciate any help that can be given. Thanks.

You can try to adapt the safezerg code from adventurer keywardencoroutine.cs

@TarasBulba please support this plugin, group XP is so much better... Like for real and theres been demand for this plugin and on the competition for something like this... If not you, maybe u can convice some other developer to support it?

Thanks mate, its kinda working but not great =( maybe u could incorporate it to Adventurer or something like that?

You need to manually select the Gem from QuestTool or select the upgrade %. I have my upgrade % set to 1 and manually select the one I want to upgrade. You will get to the point where you have 1% chance on all of them.

hello with a friend we trying to run the profile but without success.

I setup my bot as leader and my friend as follower :

so my demonbuddy log : [SimpleFollow] Initializing Server Service @ http://xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:10920/ [SimpleFollow] Waiting for party members to connect to SimpleFollow server...

and my friend log : [SimpleFollow] Resetting Grid and clearing Navigator [SimpleFollow] Leader is in town, waiting...

the connexion between our 2 bots seem to be working because when i invite him in my group his bot accept the invitation

and when we start demonbuddy nothing happen, our 2 characters stay in town looking each other, any one have the same issue ?

The leader is always saying " [SimpleFollow] Waiting for party members to connect to SimpleFollow server... " with ur friend in town and running it? U sure u loaded a profile?

Can you post a proper log of both? U can replace ur ip with anything else using notepad++'s replace feature (ctrl+f + replace all)....

error pluguin

I wonder how do I configure the local host of the plugin because so far no able to operate the pluguin, of an error saying that the leader n was found, I wonder how I configure the host site with the leader of the pt, it is necessary to download a part program?

 

[TwoCigars]

Can I just point out that using this plugin is about the most frustrating thing I have had to do with DemonBuddy since my first install?

Where is the damn step by step noob guide and FAQ.

I have read the OP at https://www.thebuddyforum.com/demon...ugin-simplefollow-multi-bot-party-plugin.html

I have downloaded SimpleFollow.
Have the latest Trinity on the latest BETA.
Bot works just fine playing SOLO with or without YAR.

Using YAR:
I directed my primary account to use Adventurer Greater Rifts. (Demonbuddy BETA 573>Profiles>Adventurer>GreaterRift.xml)
I directed 2 of my accounts to use SimpleFollow_Relogger.xml (Demonbuddy BETA 573>SimpleFollow>SimpleFollow_Relogger.xml)

With YAR:

Main bot ALWAYS starts a GRift before invited players can join
Often times it will not invite other players. Most times it loads into the game and starts GRifting immediately.
On the rare occasion that it DOES invite other players before GRifting, it starts a GRift before they can get into the game.
When I manually do the inviting, somewtimes other bots will not join the GRift
When they all do go into the GRift, often times one of them will not fight.
At the very start of the GRift after I manually do most of everything, it will sometimes start to fight with all bots, but then the secondary bots just go off on their own.

​

AT BEST I can get 2 bots to work and most times when I do I start having Nav Server Issues that I am not getting when playing solo.

ROFL just venting now. Can anyone help me out with some basic instruction because I feel like its a 'forest for the trees' scenario now.

feelin so noobish lol

I've tried everything I could think of to make it work with R-YAR, but I don't think it works because the follow can't communicate with the server if hes not in game, for some reason that I have no idea...

That's what I could break down and I couldn't fix...

This plugin has a shitload of bugs and its not supported, its quite frustrating... Would be the best to happen to DB right now if this plug gets support, because srsly god damn group XP is OP!

 

[xxfearxx]

simplefollow doesnt even work at all for me anymore. ive done clean installs with beta and release versions of db and in all cases the follower will stand near/on top of the leader (heal monk) and not do anything till leader trips inactivity and then leaves

edit: reverted to trinity 2.13.61 and qt 3.5.10 (trinity wouldnt compile with .13) and it works again so newest trinity or qt breaks simplefollow

 

[destroyer57]

Sorry to hear that it's not working for you guys. It is for me. I'm using simple follow, boting with 4 accounts and using R-YAR. It evens works with innerspace.

I'm using latest demonbuddy stable build, not beta, trinity 62, and althoguh it was very difficult to set everything up, not it's working fine. That's how I did it:

- Download latest demonbuddy stable version (436).
- Donwload latest trinity version (62).
- Do a fresh install.
- Install Simplefollow 3.0.0 on plugins folder.
- Download matamort's adaptation (page 6 on this thread) and overwrite simplefollow plugin. I did that because of the followers teleporting to act V and it works great for me.
- Install any other plugins or profiles you need (itemcount, etc...).
- Now copy the whole folder to as many other ones as bots you're running. For example: I have the demonbuddy folder, and inside it, I have folders 1, 2, 3 and 4. And inside od each folder there is a working installment of demonbuddy.
- Now, you have to use either innerspace or have 4 different working folders of the Diablo game. For example: c:\Games\Diablo 3\account 1, c:\Games\Diablo 3\account 2, etc...
- Run the first Diablo (or run all four with innerspace), and open the firts bot. That will be the leader.
- On demonbuddy plugins tab, mark adventurer, trinity, and simple follow, and load the profile you want tu use, for example, nephalem rifts from adventurer.
- On plugins, click on simplefollow and then on configure. You have to check: Stay in party / Invite friend 1 / Invite friend 2 / Invite friend 3 (if yor running four bots. If you're running 3, only invite 1 and 2, etc.) / Wait for followers.
- Don't change Server port on simplefollow configuration, neither Bind Address.
- Run the second Diablo, and open the second bot. That will be the first follower.
- Load Simplefollow.xml as the profile (on Plugins\Simplefollow folder).
- On demonbuddy plugins tab, mark Questtools, Trinity, and Simplefollow. DO NOT MARK adventurer.
- On Simplefollow configuration, check only Saty in party. You have to uncheck the rest.
- Repeat with bots 3 and 4 the same as with bot 2.
- Run bots 2, 3 and 4 first (they will wait for the leader), and then run bot 1. If everything is fine, leader will create game and invite followers.

Important things:
- The leader should only have 3 friends on friends list.
- Friends shouldn't be on occupied state.
- It's better if the leader is the slowest character.
- Simplefollow works well with adventurer profiles (nephalem rifts, bounties, and greater rifts). There's and adaptation on this thread to make it work with ubberbot too, but I haven't tested it.
- There are some problems with grifts depending on the level of your characters and the level of the legendary gems. It's explained on this thread how to make it work.

Once everything works fine, you can set up r-yar. The only things to have in mind are:
- Select on each bot the profile from it's own folder. Select the demonbuddy.exe from it's own folder. Maybe that is not important, but that's how it works for me.
- Set the leader bot to be the last bot to start.

Hope this helps

Nice destroyer

but i think that you dont have the same Problem as two cigar and Bobby because your bot are all on the same PC.

i think they have communication Problem.

Most Problem of that is the Windows Firewall of the Leader PC shout be tempoary of, and when it is the solution, than can Google for the communication port. i mean 8000-8003 tcp and 9000 tcp but dont no if its correct.

 

[seiya]

That I tried long ago and it does not work. Thanks anyway.

Did you select that on your leader? Follower(s) will sync up with the leader % setting in QuestTools.

Did they modify the config to point to the leader's IP?

go to %PATH%\Documents\Demonbuddy\Plugins\SimpleFollow\Network and modifiy file ServiceBase.cs and change line 37. Replace localhost:10920 with your Leader's IP

Firewall is easy to deal with, disable windows firewall to test then if it works, re-enable and tailor it.

First of all I would like to thank you for the tutorial it will help a lot of ppl even the ones that make it work (like me), even tho I still have problems with R-YAR, gonna take another later on... Really appreciated =)

Now about this:

- Now, you have to use either innerspace or have 4 different working folders of the Diablo game. For example: c:\Games\Diablo 3\account 1, c:\Games\Diablo 3\account 2, etc...

Why is that? You could just out "-launch" in a diablo shortcut if the intention is to open multiple diablo clients... Innerspace probably makes it easier, but I don't think its needed many diablo folders for multibox... Or you do that for other specific reason?

Thanks o/


BTW, what team composition are you using with ur 4-man group? And do you have any recommendation for a 3-Man team?
