The other tool is made with .Net, i guess it's VB because of the "My" everywhere in decompiled source.
But if it's doable in VB, it's doable in C# ; )

I wonder if a gui is needed, i always loved the fire and forget tools ;p

the gain is huuuge. you edit your plugins, switch back to d3 and see the changes. you switch back to vs, edit your plugins, switch to d3 to check if everything looks okay, switch back to vs and so on...

Well, this has become a second nature for me, alt-tab ctrl-end ^^'

[prrovoss]

with this you only need to use alt-tab

I can do that with HUD itself...

my RoG laptop doesn't have an End key dedicated, it's a fn on my num pad, anyone know how I can get Ctrl/End to work with my keyboard, currently I have to open Task Manager and end the process

[JackCeparou]

Well, it's clunky, but i guess fn+ctrl+the corresponding num pad key should work..

Edit : btw, you can change the hot keys in /config/hotkeys.xml

[FredDurst]

Jack, no I have tried every combination of the keys for my End key. Its on the number pad 1 key but no combination of fn+ctrl+1(End) key shuts down THUD.

I tried a few versions ago to change the hot keys for shut down and it did not work.

Ill try again and come back to post how it goes.

Edit: Nevermind, I was able to change my hotkey to turn off THUD to ctrl+E and it shuts down.......noice...TY!

Hello Jack and ty for this great exe

i ve got a request regarding to my post on "how to protect against warden"
[HOW TO] Protect against Warden

is there any ways that you add this in your program :

if D3 and Thud are strated check if agent.exe is started and kill it....

because as you can read on my post in warden protect thread:
every time D3 is started by my user "toto" (with no admin rights) my main account launch agent.exe

and agent is like a fck..g trojan so i prefere it dead when i play....

regards

Lio

I call this "treat the symptom and not the root cause"

There is no reason than agent will launch itself, check if ou don't have bnet launcher on auto-start on your 'admin' profile.

TL;DR;
I'll not implement your request.

hi, thanks for your answer....

No, there is not any kind of blizzard exe or dll that are auto started on every account of my windows...

i ve check that using "Autoruns.exe" a very good soft that explore all place where a program, a services, dll and sys files can be launch :
AutoRuns pour Windows v8.61

From your side, have you/can you just check, if you launch Diablo III.exe (-launch), did you see or not Agent.exe loading up in your task manager ?
FYI i m on Win 7 64...

I usually use the bnet launcher with the limited user account, only this account has bnet processes running.

Just tested with -launch (so without the launcher), the agent process is running on the limited account, which is perfectly fine.

Seeing Agent in your process list doesn't mean it's running on your 'full user'

Edit: tbh if your are too paranoid and afraid to loose your account to a legit updater software, you should stop using 'cheats' ;p

Hi Jack,

thank you very much for this neat little tool. It is really helpful. I use it for testing and playing around with changing plugins. Just need to hit ctrl+del to close TH and it will automatically be restarted a few seconds later.

I just found one little thing. Would it be possible for you the change the way the app is looking for the D3 process? at the moment it is strictly looking for what is entered into the config. Like only "Diablo III", but not "Diablo III64".

Could you change the app to look for the process, which contains what is set in the config file?

Oo

Just checked the source to be sure, but it should use the config value : SimpleWatchDog/Program.cs at master * JackCeparou/SimpleWatchDog * GitHub

Edit : Or are you asking to be able to watch multiple process name with only one app ?
If yes, just duplicate it with 2 different config ;p
