[roevhaal]

roevhaal can u tell us what profile u was using ? how many hours did u bot when u got banned ?

Used my own profile in uldum, only around Whiptail path.

This bot needs two features....

1. the ability to ignore adds.
2. the ability to use druid flight form

apart from that... it's an excellent little tool!
Keep up the good work.

+ it needs BEEP sound on whisper , that you can choose when to shut down your PC or quit WOW

Used my own profile in uldum, only around Whiptail path.

This guy was temp banned because everyone else that was farming whiptail reported him. Whiptail can only be farmed IN ONE PLACE. There's always going to be a TON of people around which makes for VERY unsafe botting, EVEN IF you use your own profile.

Reading and hearing everywhere theres a Banwave in the US

true ?

No, there is no banwave. Quit being paranoid people.

Common Issues:

1) Flight Form

The bot doesn't support flight form, quit asking about it.

2) Unhandled Exception / Bot doesn't start / Why doesn't this work / etc

You need to run the game in windowed mode, dx9 mode, have default movement keys, and enable auto loot. Also run it as admin if you're on vista / 7. If none of this has solved it, make sure your .net is updated to 4.0. There's also been reports of people deleting their config.wtf and the bot magically starts working.

3) My bot doesn't herb / mine from X node

Open the settings.xml file in your bots in notepad. Find this part near the bottom:

<GatherSpecificItems />

Add the name of the node underneath this inside of <string></string> tags and then close it off with </GatherSpecificItems>.
Example:

<GatherSpecificItems>
    <string>Obsidium Deposit</string>
    <string>Rich Obsidium Deposit</string>
    <string>Elementium Vein</string>
    <string>Rich Elementium Vein</string>
    <string>Pyrite Deposit</string>
    <string>Rich Pyrite Deposit</string>
    <string>Stormvine</string>
    <string>Azshara's Veil</string>
    <string>Heartblossom</string>
    <string>Whiptail</string>
    <string>Cinderbloom</string>
    <string>Twilight Jasmine</string>
</GatherSpecificItems>

4) Farming in Vashj'ir and my bot skips nodes / Doesn't mount back up properly

Make sure you don't have "Skip underwater nodes" checked in the settings. Also, there's a great auto-it script that runs parallel with the bot that was coded JUST FOR mounting in Vashj zones:

5) Freezes and whatnot when I try to select my mount

Find this line in your settings.xml and change it to whatever mount you want to use:

 <MountName>Abyssal Seahorse</MountName>

6) And always remember, as I said in an earlier post:

1) Don't bot in high traffic zones
There's many different zones you can bot in with Cata. So what if the herb/ore you need isn't in the zone? Pick what you can to sell and then buy what you need.

2) DON'T USE PUBLIC PROFILES.
Using public profiles is one of the easiest ways to be spotted and possibly banned. Also, most public profiles aren't anywhere near perfect. You'll be running into trees and stuff left and right. Make your own profile. SGather AutoIT Profile Creator is a great tool that can help make a smooth profile.

And I didnt say that it wasn't stupid of me botting there (and yes it was)

Wonder if my account gets flagged or something, or if I can use the bot in small portions after the ban have elapsed.

[addict420]

I'm considering using this bot for mining but I am extremely concerned about getting banned, I have a friend whose agreed to let me use his account to run the bot in exchange for a percentage of my profit but I'm still worried about my primary account getting banned. I intend to run the bot on my secondary monitor in windowed mode while I play my non-bot primary account on my main monitor so I can watch the bot and manually respond to any tells a player or gm might send. I will of course be sending the majority of the gold from the bot account to the non-bot account and that's were I'm worried about getting caught. Can anyone confirm or deny whether the non-bot account would be banned if I was caught and also is there any way blizzard can scan me without my knowledge and detect the bot and if so can this be prevented. Any information would be extremely helpfull as well as any tips on how to transfer boted gold without being detected.
