[Planetside 2] Cert farming guide ( 300-500 certs per hour)

[snow529]

Thank you so much for the information but can you please explain how to run more than 1 Planetside2 games at the same time?

It would be awesome if you could make a step by step explanation.

Thanks!

I know ppl gonna ask this....

Be sure that you have enough hard disk space, and AT LEAST 8G of RAM, and at least a GT540 level graphic card

Copy the PS2 to two different location(at this moment you will have three ps2 folder, lets name them 1, 2, 3)
Find launchpad.exe in 2, right click, compatibility, run in windows vista
Find launchpad.exe in 3, right click, compatibility, run in windows xp
open all three and enjoy

idk if it is possible to direclty run it without changing the compatibility settings cause im too lazy to try. sandboxie doesnt work for me no matter how i configure it.

If this works you rock, tried to a different hard drive but not compatibility mode, will try when I get home, thanks.

Otherwise i posted another thread explaining a way that worked for me. No need for compability just put -launch in properties in the copied file. That worked for me

[Forgeez]

fully upgrade medic tool will revive the max at 100% health, which means it takes longer to kill

This is a good question! Max cert in the tool gives 65% revive speed ( source?) and revives at 100% health... Killing a guy with 100% hp takes 2-3 bullets in the head which is like 0,1 seconds at most to kill him compared to someone at 1% hp. Disregarding the shield since it shouldn't come up.

So it should actually still be a decrease in time!

My pc was able to do it with 3 PS2's open, thou it was important that the
first application that i started must have been in sandboxie.
The other was normal -launch and regular.

I did it manually and was able to reach about ~80/hour.
I was not able to automate the process, i used the programm "automatic Mouse and Keyboard".
For Ppl that try this out and are absolutly new tho automatic stuff like me,
i calculate a setup-time of 2-3 hours. (for everything)

Ingame Notes:
If your "prey" is not revived within a short time after the N'th kill, it turns unable to be revived. (~45sec)
After a lot kills i was unable to deal damage with shooting to any of those 2, prey and medic. (dont know how long this took or if its kill based, didnt test granades because of next thing)
MOST IMPORTANT: DISABLE ANY SOUND. Either the programm or someone started to talk out of my speakers.
Combine this with the very first time
im doing this "clever" use of game mechanics.
Man i nearly felt death of my chair...

Thats my observation.

Ps: with this SICK cert prices they really asking for normal players to turn to cheaters, they want it. GG

First of all, thank you SO MUCH for this reply.

But sad to say that it did not work for me. I tried it with only 2 Accounts/Clients

I open 2 launchpad.exe's side by sides. (Compatibility changed)
I press "Play" on the first one and then quickly the second one.
After the little loading ring, only one of them opens to the character selection and the other Launchpad.exe automatically shuts down and disappears.

What i want to know is how to do this with 3 computers? Can you script one computer(account) to automatically allways accept revives? Can you script another one to automatically press and hold the left mouse button in like a 5 second period so it would automatically revive? Is this possible? So then i would just have to sit there and do the killing while the 2 bots revive eachother?

DAT IS MY QUESTION!

[saff]

Need a TR on Miller to play the medic role. Anyone?

This is relevant to all our interests. Especially us who are trying to make this fully automatic(Being able to run the whole process on one computer also) +rep

Another good method of running more applications. +rep

[Compu123]

[Anthony011]

Thats strange... if you are running 2 ps2, be sure the first one is original and the second has compatibility change. RAM is also important, since each ps2 will take about 1.5G of ram.

**** found a insane exploit GAme-breaking! why isn't there an elite section ?

Works here, both clients at character selection screen.
