PartyBot use a different IP to connect to.

Hey, I searched a little and came up empty.

I bot on 3 computers, 5 boxing instance for giggles. However Party bot keeps wanting to connect to 127.0.0.1, is there any way i can set it to connect to a 192.168 address instead?

Maybe there is a hidden config setting somewhere i can set?

shit i know there is a way but i cant really remember. i think you go into your C drive and windows folder and system32 and... shit its something in there. you do it to hack photoshop lol. you put like the program name and what ip address it connects to. the only problem is if you change HB to another ip address it would probably screw something else up

If your talking about the hosts file, it doesnt work for IP addresses. Only hostnames. ie blah.com 192.168.1.1

Thanks for looking however.

Are there any plans to have an option? Doesn't it make sense to have it in there? Or am I the only one that does this.

Having a full party of bots is really fun, but they don't like to work together unless they are in PartyBot mode.

This would be a nice change in my opinion also.

Partybot seemed nice, but I was never able to get it to work between multiple machines, it worked smooth when botting 2 accounts on 1 box.

But my preference is to have my main (leader) on my gaming machine, then the bots on 2 other machines I have, but just get error spam when trying that, due to them not being able to connect to leader.

And this was with opening ports on firewall

Well being a systems administrator, I thought about it for a bit and logically figured it out.

If it isn't against any weird rules, I will write up a tutorial for those interested tomorrow.

Let me know if its ok.

1) Install FreeSSHd on your "Main" system. Google "FreeSSHd" for the download link.
2) Run FreeSSHd, right click on the taskbar icon. Settings.
2a) Go to the users tab, Click Add. enter a login and password, ensure shell and tunneling are enabled. Save and close.

3) Download plink on your "Slave" system. Google "plink download" for the download. plink.exe
3) Create a batch file on your "Slave" system. Put it in the same directory as your plink.exe.

The batch file should be this line, and this line only.

c:/path to/plink.exe -l username -pw password  -L 1337:127.0.0.1:1337 your.main.ip

You will have a command window open, however your slave bot will now communicate with your main bot.

---Delete this post if for some reason this circumvents any specific reason you do not want two machines/bots communicating.
