BK Ghom Bot (fully customize-able skills)

[deadrap]

Thanks for this excellent bot, it works flawlessly for me.

I have a question though, is it possible to cancel the cutscene as you enter Ghoms room? After a 5 hour session last night I worked out that a full hour was spent in this cutscene and I'd like to know if we can cancel it through some small mod to the code?

I'm an absolute noob at this so any help or info would be great.

Thanks

Of course, I had forgotten that option was added to the game, tyvm.

I've realised that using "Fist of the Heavens - Heavens Tempest" seems to cause my crusader to move away from the loot sometimes while it chases the yellow bolts. Short of using a different skill (Playing a Darklight Fire sader)...
Is there a way to skip picking up RARES (yellow items) totally? I reckon if I can remove the option to scan for rares, it should also solve the problem.

To clarify:
It will pick up only the following 7 "Colors" if enabled in the following order of priority and given a specified duration to pickup (LootTime)
Set=0x00FF00
Leg=0xFF8000
Gem=0x99BBFF
Rare=0xFFFF00
Blue=0x6969FF
White=0xFFFFFF
As already posted, if you notice your toon is going away from the loot, then you got something colorful on you (or on your follower), better transmog it to something Dull.

But when stashing/selling/salvaging, it will check for the "Account Bound" grey color; only BOA items have this grey text.

Modify the one under the Loot group and not the LootColor:
[Loot]
Rare=0


You should understand, BKBOT prioritizes picking up of SET then LEG then GEMS then RARE then BLUE then WHITE.
Even if you did not disable picking up RARE, you will still get to pick up SETs and LEGs.
But it is really annoying that BKBOT will move you far away from the loot chasing something not a loot.

BTW. That is not the only skill that can screw the looting.

I've had this same issue with my sader but as I'm really greedy I wasn't inclined to let go of the rares ()
The solution I found was to set the loot delay to 7s, this way the effects of the skill would wear off.

It may wear off eventually. But what if it chased the effect way too away? Now that you mentioned it, there is a variable that you can use for this purpose (although I didnot intend it for it to begin with). Increase the LootDelay. This is a delay prior to the actual looting. This way, toon will not try chasing the ground effect and let it wear off first before actually doing the loot. Credit goes to tsutomi for giving LootDelay a purpose!

As a peace of mind, I repeat, even when you see BKBOT chasing some ground effect like you saw, rest assured, it never failed to pick SET and LEG items for you.

Seems we are having this problem with our crusaders. I had this problem when I used Consecrate-Shattered Ground and some other gears.

Yeah that's the variable I was talking about actually hahahah
Before finding it I tried a couple of sleeps before the looting process started and then while I was browsing through the code I found this variable and gave it a try... tweaking the loot delay you will greatly increase the pickup of non-legendary\set items.
Another tip for sader users is to pay attention to the timing of Akkarat Champion, I always try to let it wear a few seconds before ghom is dead because I noticed that the glow of the toon can divert it from the loot.

BTW: Thanks for the bot burgaud, having a blast with it

I actually ended up deleting all instances of $LootRare, white colour and what not. Seemed like it works too. BUT... I would prefer being able to pick up all loot as tsutomi has said

Will give LootDelay a try.

Thats the option in the config.ini file which says LootDelay = 1000 ? So I change that to 7000?

1000 is 1 second.
Try using 5000, and see if it is sufficient a wait to dissipate those lightning. Add/subtract little by little until you are comfy.


What classes are you botting? Do you bot a single class? or all?
I am botting all classes, 3-5 days per class. Right now, back with crusader.

If you are manually playing, you might want to try out another script I wrote: BK-HotSkill.
It records and replays skill builds for quick skill switching.

Have been doing Wiz and WD for the past few weeks. Got bored and decided to try my Crusader And thats the first time I realised all the crusader spell effects were causing so many problems.

Wow thanks I'll try it when I get home, it will save a lot of time/hassle for when I decide to swap to bounty/rift mode

Hi I'm been using this for almost a week flawlessly and I want to move it to a VM. So, I made windows xp in VMWARE (8.1 give me stuttering bs) and d3 run fine on low on 1080p with ~40 fps average. Now, I xfer the script over and It is stuck in a loop at selecting hero then back then back to hero selection. Nothing changes beside winXP in vmware. The resolution is fixed to 1080p.

I read a lot of posts related to autoit and vmware. I tried having "optimize mouse for games" to always and turn on mouse trails, no difference. Virtualbox seems to be a better solution due to mouse integration option but don't wanna do that yet.

Is there vmware friendly script changes possible? thanks!

[burgaud]

I once tried it on VM too. No Go. Never bothered figuring what the problem was as I was dissatisfied with the VM performance (extremely slow)

Now lets go figure it out.

Run the PNGTest. see if it can match the screen to the PNG files. I suspect it has something to do with how VMWare renders "virtual screen" as against a real graphics card.

From what you described, it appears it could not match SelectHero.png. And BKBOT version 20140604 will indeed get indefnitely stuck in that screen (no way out).

If this is indeed what happened to you, no need to post log.txt; otherwise, please post log.txt.
A screen shot, without your name, unmodified resolution, unmodified color, in PNG format would be most appreciated as well.
(so I can get to see how VM ware renders color).
