[FREE] Studio Companion

[Studio60]

The time-lost artifact is sold for like 5000 timeless coins or something. Really easy to get. As for Draenor engineering teleport, there are so many slow-falling options that it's never really an issue, but I suppose it would probably be a pain to add that logic in.

Couple other questions:
1) Is it possible to make the bot do pet quests just for a specific expansion ie. MoP? Looking for the best way to knock out the missing requirements for the Elekk Plushie achievement (really long adventure or whatever). Just going through and selecting tamers/quests one at a time by hand for now.
2) Can we have the bot forfeit the match if Elekk Plushie is the only remaining pet? Takes forever for that sucker to die

Regarding #1: I guess you could just create a Studio Planner run with the desired profiles. I am also working on a way to reduce the menagerie profiles to 1 by making it date-dependent. Just need to fight a few issues with region detection and varying daily quest reset times in different regions. That should remove a lot of the WoD profile clutter.

Regarding #2: This was in the plugin once, but then we realized that there are situations in which this can be intentional. I think there is even a celestial profile tactic where the Plushie is active, but the enemy will still die due to some DoTs going off. So we took it out again.

Noticed something regarding Elekk Plushie achievement. I haven't used Plushie for Major Payne ("Grand Master Payne" in your profiles), but the bot isn't using elekk plushie for this battle. Let me know if you need a log.

I don't, thank you. It is has already been reported and is on my fix list.

Important Announcement

The community developers have been informed that Honorbuddy will undergo major API changes with the release of the Legion expansion. These changes will make it necessary to update and retest my entire product portfolio. Even though my customers are used to very frequent updates, I feel that in this situation I have to postpone all patches until this change is public. I will spend this time preparing all of my products to the best of my ability and also work on the successor to Studio Companion.

I promised to update and maintain all my products through the entire Legion lifecycle for free and I will stick to that. I hope you can understand that it does not make sense to update products that require another overhaul in two weeks time. I can serve you better by preparing the next generation of all my products. I will be working hard on a new free product called StudioBot that will show you a whole different side of botting and that will then be used for all my products. I can not yet reveal all the features, but I am sure you will be amazed and happy.

I can only hope you can understand my reasoning behind this. If I were to update the existing products, you would maybe get a better one for a week or two and then be left with a broken one, because I did not have the time to prepare. I am hoping Bossland will supply us with a preview version soon, so the downtime for all my customers will be minimal.

I am not allowed to reveal the nature of these changes, so please don't ask. You can also still report all bugs and I will keep them on my list to make sure they are gone with the new versions.

My sincerest apologies for the inconvenience.

Hi Studio60,

Thanks for the notification. I just wanted to drop in and say thanks for your profiles. I had my first run in firelands and DS yesterday trough your trial profile and it runs really smooth. Now I run a trial on TBC raids and it looks really nice. Looks like I am gonna buy your profiles. If I could make a suggestion for the future;

I'd be neat if profiles could have multiple categories; for example: Reputation / mount / pets. So you can select what categorie you want to run and it runs the raids where you still have something to gain, and wont run where you already have the mount or are already exalted.

Have a nice day!

Edit: Another suggestion;

On planner -> Productlist a lot is greyed out because the user "doesn't have it" even though the user actually acquired the profile trough a pack. This would increase in the profiles that are owned / not owned.

Thank you for your input. I have something in mind for Studio Bot that I call "smart priorities". I basically want users to set an order for things they are interested in and then enable them to let the bot do the work for them. So that it says "alright, the user is interested to max out his reputation in black temple and it is important to him, so let's do this if he has the profile".

I also want to present a lot more data regarding the player and account status. It requires a bit of work on my backend server though, because we are not allowed to query things like the battle.net api from within a plugin. Feel free to join my Discord server (link in the signature). I will be talking a lot about the botbase and planned features and I would be greatful for any feedback and feature requests players want to offer.

Cool. I'll check it out when I am at home. At work I usually lurk the forums and check on my HB trough teamviewer lol.

(PS: Dont forget about my 2nd suggestion. It would up your sales I think).

Version 2.0.160815.1.2 has been submitted to the store. The changes will become available once the update has been approved.

- Fixed an overlay issue in the Planner

I couldn't get to it today. Hundreds of people on Discord were asking for my free Invasion profile which I just submitted to the store. I will be back on normal bugfixing tomorrow. But thank you for the log.

Plugin is still crashing HB about 50% of the time when opening the plugin. Is this just me? Is this not being addressed until after the big changes as well?

I have the plugin crash the bot 100% of the time when I open the settings for the second time during a session. I've just become used to always restarting HB if I need to adjust settings in the studio companion

What Lastmango is saying is correct. The window crashes when you open the raid options a second time and when you try to open the setting if the plugin is not active. The second one is an easy fix, but does not happen a lot. The first one is a bigger problem. I can try to find a hotfix, but a durable fix requires a rewrite of those windows and if I can not find a hotfix, then it will have to wait until the Legion update. In this situation I am outweighing "having HB crash the second time you open a raid window" versus "all my products being broken for an additional full day after the API update". If I can find some middleground, you will get your fix.

 

[Studio60]

Version 2.0.160819.1 has been submitted to the store. The changes will become available once the update has been approved.

[B]General[/B]
- Studio Companion will no longer crash when you open the settings while the plugin is disabled.
- Studio Companion will no longer crash when you reopen a raid options window

Trying out a trial of retro raid bundle today. It's obviously a looooot of raids. The issue I'm having is with bag space. I'm filling approx. 60 bag slots per raid instance (before vendor run). After vendor run, I still have less than 30 slots available typically, due to various legacy craftable items, BoE greens, and the epics that were marked "keep".

Is it realistic to expect that I could build a planner run with all of these raids and it would be able to complete them without stopping loot due to full bags? In my experience so far - the answer is no.

I could manually set everything to sell (except legendaries) but that would prevent me from keeping BoE greens for transmog.

I'd like it to do the following:
1) sell everything except legendaries, moggable BoE greens (you won't check if it's moggable, so just keep them all), pets/mounts
2) mail BoE greens to the character under Settings -> Vendor/Mail

I think I can handle requirement #1 with individual raid settings but not sure about #2 and these take up tons of space. Again, I could vendor these but would miss out on xmogs.

I still have a report for a mailing issue, but in general you would set up a mail recipient and then go to the item overrides in the raid menu and set green boe items to mail.

What was the issue you have with mail?

It didn't like the format I put for my mail toon I Think.... I used "Name-US-Realm" and I'm guessing you just want "Name-Realm". I had tons and tons of manually-assigned items pointing to mail to this character so I didn't want to go re-do them all by scratch. Since you don't have a way to edit the name within the GUI, I tried editing it in the MailSettings.xml. Now HB is crashing everytime I go to a raid and click on an armor class ie. Leather Items. I'm guessing it's because the item settings have nothing to point to. I can't find the XMLs where the item's action settings are so I can update them all to point to the new mail name a lot quicker.... any help here?

Find/Replace in that XML fixed me up. Thanks

It is not in there, because the product will be removed again in 1 week when invasions end. It does not make sense to update that many systems. Just load the profile from the BuddyStore.
