Unable to do anything on my Paladin using the Questing botbase.

did you run the repair on your wow install? while your at it make sure your running the latest graphic drivers.

Yes I did, apparently nothing needed repairing.

My display drivers are a month old, that shouldn't cause issues, and I do the proper method of uninstall > reboot > wipe driver remnants > reboot > install new ones (while preventing windows from installing generic ones)

And no I don't have the Geforce Experience even installed, it causes microstutter.

I'm not using the most recent driver due to performance drops in The Witcher 3 on Kepler GPU's with newer drivers.
 
imo thats an OS issue

It sounds like a feasible variable. I'm not a coder, but I'm still confused as to how the questing botbase can work for every other class but (now) almost never my Paladin (since no one else has issues, or if they do it's fixed via one of the procedures).

I've been contemplating a reformat, or buying a cheap machine that will have just enough software on it run HB as to avoid issues.

I've even thought about dual-booting Windows 7 on my SSD so one installation is solely for HB and the other would be for normal use and I'd continue to use one of my mechanical drives for games.
 
well,everything else is already checked
 
I'm now having constant issues with the questing botbase in all classes.

I think I'm going to shrink a partition, create a new one with the leftover space, install W7 on it, and dedicate that installation solely to HB as I really want to avoid a reformat, and also to confirm it is my installation and potentially figure out what's causing the issue.
 
You have to be kidding me.

Same, exact, error.

Fresh installation on a new partition, all updates, and all 3 redistributables (windows updates includes .Net) only my GPU/SM Bus/Sound card drivers/software installed.

No antivirus installed, so I didn't visit any site except for this one (it will be installed, I just wanted to rule out MSE)

I used the redistributables supplied in the BuddyWizard.

Edit - was a fresh HB installation as well.

Edit 2 - Works fine on my low level hunter, only other class I've tried besides my Paladin... Paladin still instantly crashes. This is the same behavior as before, for some unknown reason they occasionally work.

Edit 3 - Doesn't work on any other classes except my low level Hunter.

Interesting occurrence.

Started up, didn't crash, game was frozen but animations worked.

Then HB closed maybe 2 minutes later.

I've also never see a World of Warcraft\Data\Cache folder before, I thought I'd mention that.

is this with the same wow install? it could be that the install is messed up, sometimes even the repair tool fails to fix needed files.

Yes it is actually.

If it matters my original install was to an SSD, I copied that to a mechanical HDD so I could lower settings and make that my botting copy, I then copied the copy to this partition, although I have all the same issues with all 3 installations. I also defraged before and after each copy/paste (didn't defrag the SSD obviously).

Edit - I think I may have actually originally downloaded it to a mechanical drive first, then copied it to my SSD, then the copies were made for botting some time later.

Fresh download/install.

Ran fine on the Warrior, but I had what I call the lag issue with the Paladin.

HB starts the profile, runs to the flight path, but the game isn't updating and blacklists the flight master, although you can still run around on foot at mounted speed (can't interact with anything though).

what your describing is ingame lag, the bot cant cause that. if you have extremely high ping or connection issues the bot is going to time out and give issues like blacklisting things because they arent responding.

I know what lag is.

My point is this occurs as soon as I click start in HB and that it's causing the game to behave like there's massive server lag, either that or it gives the Cvar error, for the last few attempts it hasn't given the cvar error, but it's caused the lag issue, of course It's not actually lagging, it's obviously something else going on, but it's behaving like there's massive server lag. You know what I mean, you can run in place, some model animations for npc's work as well as your character, but you can't do anything except move around, and sometimes you run at mount speed.

I'm starting to wonder how many people are actually botting a max level Ret with the questing botbase because I tried Holy and it worked fine, but I obviously couldn't kill anything, and also due I've literally never see a Ret botting in this game, I've seen countless Hunters/Warriors and other classes. I've seen a few comments from people saying they tried a Ret with some profiles, but that's it, and that was ages ago, and it was pre banwave too. Also factor in why is this mostly a Ret issue...

I've researched every Cvar error thread I could find that said it had this issue, as in blah blah blah then there's a memory address and there's 3 "at" lines below it, most comments said it was relating to GreyMagic being corrupt, a fresh install and cache clear almost always fixed it.

I thought the issue may be on my end as perhaps I have bad sectors, so I changed the directory's location, and also ran a memtest, no bad sectors were found and my ram appears to be fine.

And for the record, the 'lag' issue (for lack of a better term) never occurred on my Paladin before, I got it often on my other toons, but after a few attempts I could use the questing botbase on them.

Also, it works perfectly fine on non-max level toons.

the only thing that honorbuddy does is download meshes, so unless your connection is a dial up connection, you shouldn't be having wow server connectivity issues just by pressing start with honorbuddy.

so heres whats happening and why the "errors" your seeing are happening.

1. Move to NPC.
2. Interact with NPC.
3. NPC page should be open now, send lua to pull data about quests or data it has.
4. FUCK the page isnt up theres no data to pull.

and thats because of wow lag. maybe just check your connection. because no one else is having these kind of issues.
 
I've basically given up.

I can grind on my Paladin without any issues, but using the Questbot is out of the question. I have no idea why it worked twice with HB 798.

Now HB 800 works fine on my Warrior and low level toons, yet it's still doing the lag thing when I hit start with it loaded up with my Paladin.

It ran around for about 2 minutes and according to the log it interacted with NPC's, yet all I saw was a lagging client with working model animations and a Paladin running around like it was trying to open something for 2 minutes.

I had also already done the dailies, but I just loaded the profile to see if it would lag or crash.

click "Settings and tools" and try disabling "Use Framelocking" and see if that helps.
 
Just to jump in here - I have had this problem with my 96 paladin recently. I do not have any logs or such available as I assumed it was something with me or my connection. once the new HB is ready I'll try some more. I noticed this with questing and with garrisonboss. Combat bot worked ok. I tried with singular and with the tuanha routines

Another couple things I noticed - after I get disconnected if I quickly log back in then HB will sometimes resume operating and continue working. I could tell it was going to disconnect because all the animations would stop - fires would freeze and etc. Sometimes it would disconnect without dropping out of the client so I could wander around but not interact with anything.

I did try the clear and reload WoW and HB, run with no addons and disable most of the store stuff. It does this on 2 different PCs and like ThatOneDude said it runs on my 96 hunters and on other assorted toons, but does this on my paladin. It was working fine on the Paladin one day and the next it would disconnect every time. I think this started about 8/28 or 8/29.

FWIW - both PCs are Win7 x64, both have the G510 & the G13 with the logitech display stuff (both logitech devices have been in use for several years on WoW & HB with no problems). I just rechecked and I do not have any logs available atm.
 
Apparently my Paladin's from the future.

I'm running off a fresh download/installation I did today of the client of which I already performed a repair check (nothing was downloaded), and it was on a freshly defragged mechanical drive.

I already clear every cache via a custom .bat file I made and I wait at least 10 minutes before each attempt.
