[Party Plugin] SimpleFollow - Multi-Bot Party Plugin

with doing exact the thing you tell in the ghom guide

restored questtools now get this error at my follower
he spams it all the time and is afk

Are you using Trinity 1.8.25?

Either your Trinity was installed incorrectly or you are using 1.9+.

(In Trinity 1.9+ you cannot remove QuestTools)
 
This is certainly not a perfect solution but it performs 5 times better than 'stock' SimpleFollow. I can AFK this over night and it will only break if my Follower dies (like if Ghom decides to target him out of 10 pets for 10 attacks in a row - Very rare)

This is set up to work for Ghom ONLY.

What do you need?
DemonBuddy 359 Official Release - http://updates.buddyauth.com/GetNewest?filter=Demonbuddy
Trinity 1.8.25 - http://www.thebuddyforum.com/demonbuddy-forum/plugins/trinity/159310-trinity-1-8-25-a.html
Custom SimpleFollow 1.3.17 - Attached to this post

How To Use
  1. Download and FRESH INSTALL DemonBuddy 359 from the link above
  2. Go to DemonBuddy/Plugins/ and delete the Trinity and QuestTools folder (QuestTools is not required for this profile).
  3. Download Trinity 1.8.25 from the link above and unpack the Trinity folder to DemonBuddy/Plugins/
  4. Download CustomGhom-SimpleFollow 1.3.17.zip from the attachments section.
  5. Unpack the SimpleFollow folder to DemonBuddy/Plugins/
  6. Download Ghom_SF_Optimised.xml, SimpleFollow.xml
  7. Open or restart DemonBuddy
  8. Load Ghom_SF_Optimised.xml as your leaders profile.
  9. Load SimpleFollow.xml as your followers profile.
  10. Change your leaders new game timer to 8 seconds. You may be able to go lower, or you might have to go higher - depends on your load speed.
  11. Suggested: Set to only loot legendaries
  12. Enjoy a smoother bot!

What Has Changed
  • Removed the leader-in-game checking that constantly makes followers join-leave-rejoin every game. There is no need for this check when running Ghom.
  • Followers will now wait in town for your leader to start the boss fight. This cuts out a loading screen and stops your leader getting confused when followers don't immediately accept a boss prompt (ie prompt appears during loading).
  • Followers can now only leave game from the boss room.
  • Followers now leave game when leader uses TownPortal. These 2 prevent a bug that occurred where my Followers seemed to randomly leave game before the leader could then rejoin and sit in town while the leader was out of game.
  • The quest NPC right next to the spawn point has been blacklisted. Prevents Followers ignoring a boss prompt if they are currently talking to that dude.
  • Leader will no longer leave game outside the boss room if there is a 0.1 second delay on the boss prompt.

Known Bugs
Sometimes leader will 'hang' by the the entrance to the Larder. This only seems to sometimes happen on the first run after starting the bot and it will never 'randomly' happen if the first run goes smoothly. Restart demonbuddy to fix.
If your Leader attempts to start a new game before your follower has left it will freeze D3. Set your leaders new game timer correctly to fix (you may have to experiment with timing. I use 8 seconds)


This works best when only looting legendaries. Town runs works most of the time but 1 out of 15 or so times the leader will teleport out of Ghoms room and townrun rather than townrunning at the start of a new game. This breaks followers.
Lastly, your followers need to be able to survive. If they die and the boss isn't killed within 2-3 seconds after that then they will return to town.


As of newest patch db crashes when opening this modified simple follow plugin, any chance for a fix? :<

I'll look in to this tonight but for now try using the latest BETA version of DB instead of the one in my post.
 
follow simple does not work. Before the patch worked normally with the settings that were already entered. Why?

Busted for me too - client hangs on leader. I really miss having my 2nd acct following when I play my main by hand ;)
 
rrrix: I am experiencing leader client freezes more frequently than usual. Having looked at the logs it appears the culprit is Quest Reward Dialogue clicking.

Code:
03:15:13.567 DEBUG TreeHooks Replaced hook [ProfileOrderBehavior_Hook] 49d86910-3472-424c-8d4c-d39eab7e02c5
03:15:13.574 INFO  OrderBot Closing quest reward dialog

This is the moment my leader froze up. In the Ghom room, immediately after clicking the quest reward button. Logs continue as normal after that up until attempting to start a new game where the next 6 hours are just:

Code:
03:43:11.219 DEBUG SimpleFollow [SimpleFollow] Received follower message: Message: WorldID: -1 LevelAreaId: 0 Position: <0, 0, 0> IsInTown: False IsInGame: False ActorSNO: 0 ActorClass: InvalidHitpointsmax: 0 HitpointsCurrent: 0 GameId: FactoryId: 0, High: 0, Low: 0 LastUpdated: 16/05/2014 02:30:13 IsVendoring: False IsLoadingWorld: False ProfileTagName:  Class=Invalid IsInParty=True BattleTagHash=-1291530229
03:43:11.219 DEBUG SimpleFollow [SimpleFollow] Social Window Close button is visible

It seems D3 is still "running" in it's frozen state for a few moments after freezing up.

Hope this helps.

what if I want to use it on diffrent pc's that arent on the same Lan?

I have a friend who just started using demonbuddy and we want to rift together..
can we tell the bot that I am the leader and he is the follower?
 
A request if you would be so kind rrrix.

If possible please make UseTownPortal behavior override the "minimum trash pack" option in trinity. If it's set to anything higher than the number of mobs beating on a follower when they need to TP the follower will ignore them and die.

Also Trinity related, Crusader skill Steed Charge is interrupting TownPortal. It's cool down is low enough that when it's on my bar using townportal is literally impossible. I've tried to fix this myself but no luck.

Having problems with the Follower leaving the party. Trying to do Ghom runs / Chest runs..
Also Can we has a wait timer for doing chest runs / ghom where it will will wait longer for the follower before it portals somewhere.
 
my follower does not do anything ... and the leader does not send an invitation to fallower .. midfielder in general is not moving or anything.

U need to make sure that your fire wall and windows firewall have port 10929 Open under Udp / Tcp
And make sure the new version of DB is also in your firewall.

And is you dident hit go to Start open Command prompt and type in Ipconfig and use the ip given there if you have a router. 192.168.1.XXX From your main PC and put that in the simplefollow setting on the follower PC

Theres an OLD readme on page 55 or 65
 
If you played leader manually, would you be able to have the bot follow you?
