APB Ultimate

[hjm12]

Been running it for over a day now. No hang ups whatsoever. I'm just a lil bummed you don't have the additional assets in yet. I'd already be dropping the old APB for APBu. Hopefully you can implement it soon.

Could you make a clicking link to your site in the 1st message ?
Could it be possible to import or convert APBi routes ?

I still have problems and end up on login page.

I've been running a couple days now. Never had to restart my computer. Only had 1 issue where it couldn't relog, because my connection to my isp dropped. Had nothing to do with the bot itself.

This is the machine I'm running it on, along with 3- 0.4.5 APB accounts and often either NW or WoW. I have more issues with the original APB than I've had with the APBu so far.

Could it be possible to import or convert APBi routes ?

I still have problems and end up on login page.

I also wondered that "converting" and found out that it is easier open APBI profile in text editor and then do APBU profile and EXPORT all same location for easy IMPORT.

Using texteditor and copypaste is easy with APBU routes because profile elements have names, converting from APBI can be done but I dont see reason to make that kind script, .

"First workable" or is it "First Possible" cause problems for me so I cant use APBU, profile is below so if some one get it work then Im happy to know what was wrong with it.

I got similar issue what is reported by electropia.

Profile needs 8x slot, 6xTailor Rank3, 2xAlchemy workers Rank2, similar setup runs with APBI(Move Next Task, First Workable)

One other semi issue I've had. When trying to run things off in sequence (say orb of fire +1, orb of fire + 2 etc) I have had it work. However, it doesn't seem to save the state between logins, thus if it times out and reconnects it's losing where it was at in the sequence.

rank 10 Elixir of reflexes does not seem to work on version .3.9b.

Thanks again for all your work.

[BaseN]

Sorry for the late replies but I'm a bit busy with work and I'm also working on 0.4.0b which has a lot of new stuff ( Russian gateway support and optional assets).

I did not save it :/
sorry it was a mistake not to copy the full text here.. I closed the bot too soon from task manager :/
is the log saved somewhere?

Not currently. It will be an option on next version.

Been running it for over a day now. No hang ups whatsoever. I'm just a lil bummed you don't have the additional assets in yet. I'd already be dropping the old APB for APBu. Hopefully you can implement it soon.

Next version Still needs some work though cause I'm adding a lot of things at the same time.

Could you make a clicking link to your site in the 1st message ?
Could it be possible to import or convert APBi routes ?
I still have problems and end up on login page.

a) Yes.
b) Not planning to code import from APBI for several reasons. The major one is that APBI is dead so me spending an hour to code that just to save someone 10 minutes of copying their queues to APBU is not worth it.
c) Need logs and description of issue. "I still have problems and end up on login page." tells me nothing about a possible issue or how to fix it. Try increasing the internal timeout value to 12. If you still have issues post log and description.

"First workable" or is it "First Possible" cause problems for me so I cant use APBU, profile is below so if some one get it work then Im happy to know what was wrong with it.

What problems exactly? If yuo don't report I can't fix them so please post log and description of issue. Also did you try increasing the Internal Timeout value?

Yes, that happens because APBU actually starts from scratch. This behavior is by design, in case a timeout caused the "current" queue to get messed up. I'll see what I can do about this after 0.4.0b...maybe put an option in settings to set which behavior you want.

rank 10 Elixir of reflexes does not seem to work on version .3.9b.

What exactly does it seem to do? Can you post a log?

PS I rely on accurate reports and logs to fix any issues you guys may experience. If I can't reproduce something here I can't locate an issue and fix it (if there is one and it's not a matter of miscofiguration on below average network conditions--when in doubt increase Internal Timeout to something like 12-15 to test. It should fix any issues related to bad network conditions unless there's no connectivity at all or packets are being dropped). So bottom line is, give me a good description and a log of the issue and if there's something wrong I will fix it.
I also see some people saying they are experiencing a problem since an older version but they waited like 3 versions to report it and only when someone else did first. Don't do this. If you start seeing an issue report it the moment you see it. It helps me know if changes made at a specific version broke something etc when I know at which version it started happening.
On a last note, remember that this is a free application so I can't spend 2 days trying to reproduce an issue, I have to pay attention to my actual job as well (the one that pays for my food). So be as descriptive as possible and post your logs I have several instances of APBU running 24/7 here (older versions too I let them run for as long as possible to see if they fail and how..currently the 0.3.9b is running for lots of days with no issues whatsoever but that doesn't mean it's bug free. It just means I'm not hitting any bug in how I'm using it. Perhaps your usage is different and encounters an issue that I could never possibly have. Also my network connection is insanely good so I can't find any issues related to bad network conditions myself. So I'm counting on your reports. Can't stress that enough

[Methuselas]

It's going well on my end, Sir. I haven't had any problems at all. Thanks for all your work. It's appreciated. I now have it running on 5 instances. 6, 4, 3, 2, 1.

Every morning I wake up to an out of memory error and APBU taking up 4 gigs of ram. I can't get logs because the program has completely locked up by then and my only option is to kill the process. If I try to do anything else at all (like saving a screenshot) my computer usually just locks up and I have to reboot. I wish there was more I could give you.

[electropica]

I think this has already be said but won't it be better collect all the task before starting them to reorder the first possible task to the first slots ?

Could you add a "debug" to you log with more informations ?

Why there is an "error" timeout between "not possible" timeout ?
It even try to do twice the same task.

09:15:22: Adding task timed out. Slot is still Free. Retrying!
09:15:45: Adding task timed out. Slot is in First Possible Mode, switching to next task.

And the problem i said before is still here with 12s timeout.
I start the bot, it collect and start tasks then i end to the login page.

[RottenMind]

If you have working profile, please post them as "text snippet" here and include settings, I want know what works with APBU or must I use "single Query" profiles.


Got one profile working after tested multiple settings.

It works with, "Max Timeouts 4", "Then Relog to Gateway", "Internal Loop Timeout (advanced) 15", "BaseLoop Delay 120", "Relog Delay 120".

To start one slot took ~60 sec. log below and profile is there too, needs, LVL19 leadership(need add some lover level jobs so it work LVL16-20), 6xslot, 6x Rank3 workers.

If need Traceroute in order to check if there is "buggy" connections... 9x APBI runs same time without problems, shutting down them all not affects performance.

Every morning I wake up to an out of memory error and APBU taking up 4 gigs of ram. I can't get logs because the program has completely locked up by then and my only option is to kill the process. If I try to do anything else at all (like saving a screenshot) my computer usually just locks up and I have to reboot. I wish there was more I could give you.

See, that's what I don't get. How is it eating up 4 gigs? I have 5 instances running on a computer that has a whopping 1GB of ram. The only "problem" I've seen is when I crash the bot, personally, 'cos I'm trying to change the professions while it's running. (Don't do that. It doesn't like it. XD) I want to help you locate the cause of the memory leak, but as Base said, I'm just not seeing it. I'm frustrated. APBU doesn't require any VB or .Net. You're running Win7, right?

BaseN,

Since APBU has autosave features, is there any way you can set it up to auto save the crash logs periodically? That way, we might get some information, before the bot locks up?


OH, OT, Base, I've noticed that sometimes, when you're in first possible mode, the bot will try and do the same job twice, before moving on to the next one in line. It doesn't timeout or cause errors, it's just a nuisance.

How would you run multiple accounts with out getting banned ?
10 accounts running professions from the same computer would that not be Super obvious ?

Today it was ok when I got up but the Gateway was down for maintenance so the bot was just continuously trying to log in, so we could probably eliminate that loop as the problem. Win 7, of course. I run a fairly long queue since I have it set to level up professions right now, so it's more than likely somewhere in the "retry task" loop.

Botting is allways against EULA e.g agreement and allways risk to get banned, BUT...

They can Ban any one with any reason, but if you read this thread backward you will find "why gateway users are not first to be banned". Those who use Bot in order to get stuff are more likely banned before APBx users who dont interfere PvP or Pve players... and I use Bot only leveling and not in PvP.

...and if they start Banning Gateway -users including my account, no hard feelings Im allmost done with game, most fun is tampering with Professions and APBx Bots.

ps. Professions can be automated so many way so it will eat up more resources to try identify "Automated Gateway" users than it ever can gain, .
