Hi all ,
I have only just started using glider again and since i have noticed that Blizzard is realy trying to ban gliders anyway they can , i thought it would be important for me to share my knowledge of glider with the rest of the MMowned comunity . Therefore i decided to write this guide and rewrite an entire Keys.xml (glider key mappings) file for all classes to keep you all safe from being on the receiving end of the mighty Blizzard ban stick .
In this guide you will find :
1 ) A custom made Keys.xml file which works for all classes .
2 ) Virus scans of the file .
3 ) A description of the new key mapping and why its so important to change the glider key mapping .
4 ) A picture guide of the new key mapping (needed to setup glider) .
5 ) A guide on how to install the new key mapping (you'll see its very simple) .
6 ) A guide with pictures on how to setup glider to be as undetectable as possible .
7 ) A few extra tips on how to glide the smart way .
1 ) The Keys.xml file download links :
You can find an updated version for the latest Glider here (BIG thanks to Spreech) : http://www.mmowned.com/forums/bots-a...tml#post308336

2 ) The virus scans pictures :
3 ) The description and the reason why changing the key mapping is important :
This file like i said earlier will work for all classes . I changed the mapping in a way so that your action bars look like they are being used by a human player and not glider or any bot for that matter . I deactivated the jump feature of glider in the file so that glider doesnt make your character jump every 5min (because its so obvious that a character is botting if he/she jumps once , precisely every 5min) .
The reason why its so important to change your glider key mapping is because the action bars layout is stored on the Blizz server side , which means that if a GM wants to know if you are a botter , all he/she has to do is look at the way your action bars are setup and if he/she notices a standard glider key mapping (on action bars 5 and 6) , then you are perma banned for sure . Also i believe that Blizzard has allready installed a filter into warden that can detect the standard glider key mapping and automaticaly flags the account as suspicious .
4 ) The picture guide of the new key mapping (VERY IMPORTANT) :
You will need to setup your action bars exactly like it is shown on the picture or else the new key mapping will not work .
5 ) Step by step guide on how to install the new key mapping :
1 ) Extract the Keys.xml .
2 ) Add the Keys.xml file to the folder that contains glider .
3 ) Start the glider launchpad and go to configuration .
4 ) Go to keys and click on the "load" button (like on the picture bellow) .
Congratulations , you are now far better protected against warden or GM detection than you were ever before .
6 ) How to setup glider to be as undetectable as possible :
1 ) You should allways have "Shadow" enabled (its the feature that makes glider undetected by Warden) .
2 ) Allways have "Unload after hide" enabled (it makes glider even harder to detect and it allows you to hear sound alerts from glider in case of trouble) .
3 ) Use the exact same detection configuration as shown bellow . It allows glider to stop your character from patroling and killing when a human player comes running by (so it looks like your not leveling at all and you are just on the phone) , also it makes glider stop and unload in case Blizzard decides to pull a fast one on botters and makes an unexpected warden update .
4 ) Make sure glider stops when your inventory is full . Or glider will wait up to 5sec in front of its last kill for every kill (just standing there doing nothing and then restarting) , which gives away glider to anyone who knows a little about bots .
5 ) I recomend putting glider on a timer (220min is plenty) , since it is possible that blizzard does bot tests to a character that might have been in an area for too long (a bot test is basicaly just an unexpected teleport or a mob you are attacking becomes invincible to see if the reaction to that event is either human or bot like) .
7 ) A few extra tips on how to glide the smart way .
1 ) Try to avoid gliding between 1h00pm and 11h00pm , on any server you will find a great gliding window between 2h00am and 8h00am .
2 ) Try to avoid gliding on Week-Ends .
3 ) Dont use public profiles , Blizzard knows most of them and GMs patrol regularly on public profile paths .
4 ) Dont sell all your loot on the AH at once . Make an alt bank character and send some of the goods to it so that you can later sell them (greed is the number one cause for glider detection) .
5 ) Regularly check the Glider has moved! forums to inform yourself of the latest glider safe settings .
Thread edit section
[ EDIT 1 ] 22/03/07 : I forgot to add one thing , for all my fellow Mac OS X users on MMowned . It is possible to use glider but you have to be running on an Intel Mac (sorry all you pre intel) , all you have to do is download and install Boot Camp you can get it here : Apple - Boot Camp . It allows you to be able to install WinXP on your Mac (basicaly makes your Mac half PC half Mac) , that way you can choose to boot your computer either on the Mac side or the PC side everytime you start your computer : ) And Glider runs just fine on the WinXP side (you may have to install some keyboard drivers for the WinXP side though) .
[ EDIT 2 ] 23/03/07 : This is another thing that i forgot to mention in my guide and it can be important for all those of you out there who like to use glider for fishing and/or use bandages ( those keys are still in the rest bar shift + 2 ) :
[ EDIT 3 ] 23/03/07 : Thx to KuRIoS for pointing out that certain addons should be used with Glider to make gliding easier : ) BTW its not that i forgot about them but more because i didnt think it made glider less detectable so it doesnt quite fit the topic of this thread but ill post the main (must have addons) to use with glider anyway (i dont take any credit for the addons posted bellow , im just pointing them out) :
1) Loot Filter - Like KuRIoS pointed out , this addon is the most usefull mod for gliders , it allows your character to automaticaly delete any item you dont want (greys , whites) . You can download it here : Loot Filter | World of Warcraft @ Curse.com also i took the liberty of getting you all a loot filter item keep list from the glider forums , it was made by Naxi so again im not taking credit for his work (im pointing out and keeping this thread complete and updated) . Copy and paste the list you see in the box bellow into your loot filter addon keep list window (ingame) , use ctrl+v to paste anything inside WoW :
2) MetaMap - This is a simple map addon which gives you live onscreen coordinates of where your character is in WoW , it also gives you all the instance maps . This addon comes in very handy when you are creating new profiles , you can get it here : MetaMap | World of Warcraft @ Curse.com .Code:#(.*)Cloth #Breath of(.*) #(.*)Backpack #(.*)Bag #(.*)Lotus #(.*)Potion #Elemental(.*) #Core of(.*) #Scroll (.*) #(.*)Sack #(.*) Leather #(.*) Hide Balanced Long Bow Balanced War Axe Bat Ear Bear Flank Bear Jaw Big-mouth Clam Blunting Mace Bristly Whisker Bulky Maul Burning Charm Burning Pitch Clout Mace Crested Buckler Crushing Maul Cured Ham Steak Deflecting Tower Delicate Insect Wing Dripping Spider Mandible Evil Bat Eye Feathery Wing Fine Longsword Fine Pointed Dagger Hard Spider Leg Tip Heavy Flint Axe Heavy War Staff Hollow Wing Bone Jagged Axe Jagged Piece of Stone Laminated Scale Armor Laminated Scale Belt Laminated Scale Boots Laminated Scale Circlet Laminated Scale Cloak Laminated Scale Gloves Laminated Scale Pants Laminated Scale Shoulderpads Large Basilisk Tail Large Bat Fang Large Trophy Paw Lifeless Stone Light Plate Boots Light Plate Chestpiece Light Plate Helmet Light Plate Pants Light Plate Shoulderpads Long Elegant Feather Long Soft Tail Mysterious Unhatched Egg Overlinked Chain Armor Overlinked Chain Boots Overlinked Chain Cloak Overlinked Chain Pants Pointy Crocolisk Tooth Poisoned Spider Fang Primed Musket Prismatic Basilisk Scale Pristine Raptor Skull Protective Pavise Razor-sharp Beak Recurve Long Bow Retractable Claw Roasted Quail Rock Chip Sabertooth Fang Savage Bear Claw Seeping Gizzard Sharp Shortsword Shiny Polished Stone Sleek Bat Pelt Smooth Cloak Smooth Leather Armor Smooth Leather Belt Smooth Leather Boots Smooth Leather Bracers Smooth Leather Gloves Smooth Leather Helmet Smooth Leather Pants Smooth Leather Shoulderpads Smooth Stone Chip Solid Stone Speckled Shell Fragment Spider Palp Spiked Dagger Splintering Battle Axe Squish Basilisk Eye Stout War Staff Tapered Greatsword Thick Furry Mane Thick Leather Boots Thick Scaly Tail Tribal Raptor Feathers Twill Boots Twill Cover Twill Shoulderpads Twill Vest Vibrant Plume Whetted Claymore Wicked Claw Arthas' Tears Black Lotus Blindweed Briarthorn Bruiseweed Dreamfoil Earthroot Fadeleaf Firebloom Ghost Mushroom Golden Sansam Goldthorn Grave Moss Gromsblood Icecap Khadgar's Whisker Kingsblood Liferoot Mageroyal Mountain Silversage Peacebloom Plaguebloom Purple Lotus Silverleaf Stranglekelp Sungrass Swiftthistle Wild Steelbloom Wildvine Wintersbite
3) Auctioneer - Many of you probably already know that one : ) but for those who dont know , its an AH addon which allows you to keep track of the current going AH prices for all trade goods/armor/weps/etc... you can get it here : Auctioneer | World of Warcraft @ Curse.com .
I will try to keep this thread updated as much as possible (including the Key.xml file) .
If you find any buggs in the key mapping , plz report them in this thread so that i can fix the file and keep eveything updated .
Also , feel free to ask me for some info if you're not sure about something .
[ EDIT 3 ] 08/09/07 : Big thanks to Phase228 for this one (its a mapping of my Key mapping , but on a text file , so you don't have to come here to setup your keys) .
