[Party Plugin] SimpleFollow - Multi-Bot Party Plugin

The plugin itself works great, however some of the profiles don't work very well, for example. The 3 musketeers profile doesn't work will with the plugin because the profile runs too fast and the follower doesn't always get in the game in time before the boss battles leading to issues.

This of course is a profile issue, I've adjusted wait timers for the profiles for the leader to give the bot followers some time to properly come in but in the end it doesn't seem efficient as running those bots solo in terms of exp/h, gold/h, and lph (only for the boss profiles I have tested so far).

I recommend using longer profiles with this plugin as it seems to work great with those but boss profiles aren't very good with this plugin and require a lot of tuning on your own end, once again of course that is a profile issue, this plug-in works great.
Smart/Interesting Idea, Simplefollow has so many performance issues for me, if it wasn't for the fact I could trade legendaries I would just have them solo as it's way more efficient...

I'll try your idea and see how it goes, though botting shouldn't be babysitting...

Well, I understand the wait timers will actually reduce your xxxp/h of whatever you are trying to do on fast running profiles as it will have a delay everytime it creates a game. That's probably just the downfall running fast games and trying to use this plugin. If there was a way to keep the party intact while leaving and creating games it would probably work well.

Running 2 profiles teamed together kinda defeats the purpose of this bot though since you would need to be there for every game to join them together and start the bots. Once they were done they would make their next game solo. (But yes, I saw -taskmanager- say you do this due to performance issues, I know the feeling, I had bad performance with this for a long time up until a few weeks ago) ...

A few things you may want to try, is as I said in prior posts, I am running a normal release and trinity .22... I've seen alot of posts the last couple days saying the BETA versions of DB are having some performance issues. Maybe try to go back to a normal version if you are running the beta and see if it improves it any for you.

Thanks for your input, btw what reason is it that you are running trinity .22 rather than another version, what makes it better?

EDIT: Tried using DB normal release and it seems to run a hella of a lot smoother, using the newest trinity .25 for now.

Yes it is, I have responded to several posts about the performance issues with the latest beta. Anyways, I run DB .355 and Trin .22 just because it works good for me.. I have alot of lag and performance issues with some of the newer stuff so I have just been sticking with what works good for me.

Been running a team of 4 smoothly for several weeks now.
 
Heya. Is it possible to Ghom profile? I tried Manglemaw awhile back it wasn't as good. has any one tested it?

Yes, the plugin should work with any campaign type profile. I've heard of a couple people having problems with the rift/bounty ones using simplefollow though.. However, as posted above, may have some issues with the speed based profiles entering a fight prior to the follower joining unless you add a wait timer.

EDIT: Or unless your stay-in-party is working.

Working PERFECTLY (The carried account isnt doing as much though)
but the WD is still killing ghom t5 in 10 seconds (t6 without help is pretty hard)

Thanks. <3

Awesome! :) Great to hear! Any other ?'s or problems just lemmie know! goodluck
 
Having my CPU charged to 100% almost always. got a 3570k i5. Thinking about upgrading now. :(

Have i7 and the same problem. Feels like SF plugin is eating a lot of performance at the moment. Not sure if this can be fixed going forward...

Did you guys open your performance monitor or task manager to verify it is DB? .. My db never runs alot of cpu, sometimes hogs some mem, but not cpu. CPU on mine is never above 10%.

Easiest way to check when everything in running is just goto your task manager, goto processes, and click on the CPU tile on the top. This should arrange them from highest cpu usage to lowest..
 
Alright so. It seems that it's my diablo 3 that is consuming alot of CPU. Soo I'm not sure.
Also, Trying to make profile Ghom on t6 work but it's not afk'able.
Running crusader + WD.
WD is the leader and crusader is the follower.
Sometimes Crusader wont even atack Ghom, he just stands there. And when Ghom is dead he just continues to stand there. It takes him a random amount of time to log off.
I have 20-25 seconds set between games on the WD (the leader) But if crusader doesn't log off by then, It just gets stuck. The game wont load, d3 will just not respond.
I was curious if there was a fix for that?
My goal is to farm effeciently paragon levels for the crusader. + Legendaries are nice.
If you can come up with some help - i'll make sure to say a BIG thank you.

A BIG thank you? huh? Whats a BIG thank you? Like a font72? :) lol
 
Here is a link to Speculoos post about the same exact thing.. Unfortunately I don't know a fix for that. As of right now I dont think this plugin is that good for the speed profiles. I run rrrix's all act profile just because its long running and doesn't have many errors running my team of 4. I dont really get in a hurry and I can leave the allacts running all the time, gets me plenty of loot and runs 250-450m xph. (Usually more but I cant do the higher difficulty levels due to a trinity bug @ belial.)

Hi,

There is a way to make this plugin work for multiple bot not in local ? With Hamachi or something else ?

If you are talking about simplefollow over the internet (like with a friend not on your lan) Im not going to say yes or no.. I've never seen a post of anyone running this over the internet. However, the design should be the same as running it over lan, so you may be able to do it binding to your leaders IP address, they would ALSO have to have their firewall exceptions setup correctly to pass the port through 10920 (i think) and also you would probably need to set the update interval high 1000ms+ or so. This way you are not bogging down your connection updating alot, possibly causing lag due to crappy pings. But that is all theory.

Probably NOT Recommended to use this plugin this way. However if you do get that working id like to know just for my own curiosity since you are not the first to ask that.
 
hi all i have problem when followers dead they re up on the dead place and die , die , die becose my bots are low only on the group can nice fight i have question there any option to re up on town when die ? after go from baner to the leader ?

Pretty sure the revive is controlled by DB or trinity.. However, if you are trying to power level lower chars, you may want to try the simplefollow_powerlevel.xml profile. (Since D3 2.0 I have not verified that is still working, but you can try it)
 
anyone can help me ? :( where can i finde.. bind adress and server port ?? because bots do not want to invite;/
