Any advice for setting up multiple bots?

[a10xrr]

Hi all, I recently just upgraded my desktop to a i7 3820 processor, 128GB SSD, 32gb ram and Nvidia GTX 480.. which hopefully will be more than enough power to run a few Diablo 3 instances in VMs. I'm reading up on as much info as I can to set up a bot farm using my new pc.

If you're knowledgeable about this, I would appreciate any advice that I can learn from you. I'm looking to be reasonably careful on this and do things right. I'm a programmer, so I can handle the technical setups fine (getting VMs running, multiple bot account at once, etc.) - it's your strategical knowledge and insight that would be most helpful

Please PM me as well if you want to have a conversation off-record.. if you're able to help me through the basics here, I'd be happy to tip you as well just as a way to thank you.

Happy botting!

just use vmware, its quite good but it isent that responsive, workstation 8.0 is the best, u will need windows 7 .iso file,

i set around 1gb of ram around 2.2ghz worth of thingo, but i only run 1,

thanks for the thoughts guys. Crispin, have you been botting with VMs (curious to see if you have, have you been banned)?

I'm also curious to hear about this.

I avoided all banwave when i had only 1 account botting, but got banned 4 days after setting up my second bot accound.

Now i'm ready to start botting again but i'm wondering about how to keep my bots safe. I was looking for VPN solutions so each bot have separate ip.

I've been botting with 2 bots on 2 VMs. One is a 24/7 Sarkoth bot, other is a near 24/7 ah bot for about 3 weeks. One of my ah bot accounts got banned when I messed up, but I've been using Blizzkrieg with no issues since then. It DOES take up a big chunk of my computing power tho, although I think it's mainly because both vmwares are set up in large resolutions for the scripts to work. I have about 9/12 GB ram and about 60% of CPU taken up with the 2 vmwares and firefox/skype + another game open.

VMwares are a MUST HAVE if you're using scripts, but they take up far more computing power than using a single bot to run multiple clients. If you're willing to pay for a bot (like Demonbuddy) then you can probably run 6-10 instances no problem with your system and have room left over for other stuff like browsing internet and watching movies, OR if you want free bots then you can probably run 4+ vmware instances no problem.
