Any plans to implement it where you don't need to have the lures/fish icon on your action bar kind of like how Cool Fish did it?
I don't think you want me to do what Cool Fish did
Cool Fish, from my understanding, hooked DirectX and executed Lua functions directly in-game. I consider this to be an unsafe practice and would never want to expose my users in such a way. The goal with Wild-Catch is to minimize detection by operating within the limits that a normal user would. This means clicking hotkeys on your actionbar. Now background mode is a bit riskier, but not so much as to leave you totally vulnerable to detection, plus it's optional.
That being said, are those icons really taking up that much space? You can always just enable more bars and shove em off to the side. Perhaps you'll benefit more from more extravagant key bindings? Now that I'll look into. But your primary concern should be the safety of your account, not the convenience of having clean action bars.

How long would you prefer I use this bot everyday without attracting suspicion.
Bit of an odd issue the bot switches my bar to primary. I keep my fishing on a secondary action bar so I don't have to use exotic bindings or anything.
I use win7 x64 ultimate and a basic logitech keyboard, so I don't think either of them are the problem.
The bot works if I put the buttons on my primary action bar. It acts like it is holding shift while doing that, because I can make it switch to bars other than 1 just before/after it tries itself.
It didn't have this behavior for me in the past, which is what really mystifies me.
Edit: I removed references to not casting fishing because I didn't know there was an enable/disable button next to the keybinding box... I feel really smart right now :-)
don't post your fish to AH in bulk like i did.4 stacks of 200.
instantly got banned.
used 64 bit wow. didn't use background mode. i only used it in my garri so one saw.
appealed already.

Something is really off when using this even for 3-4 hours. Between getting random world server downs and just plain right disconnects even though when I'm doing dailies etc no issues. Only when fishing. It's sending off alarms to me.
Not sure what to tell you except that I'm not doing anything inconspicuous here. Maybe it's just a coincidence, or maybe it's something else. All I know is my friend has been fishing for about three hours per day outside his garrison averaging out about 15K per day. He's been doing this since the beginning of the expansion. That being said take Wild-Catch for what it is, I haven't updated it since the beginning of WoD but it does the job it set out to do, it's not doing anything apart from reading memory and simulating inputs.
Your account is currently under a 72 hour suspension and has had a final warning issued for use of unauthorised third party software to automate gameplay. Following a review of your case, we can confirm that the evidence gathered was correct and that the subsequent action taken was appropriate. Our decision in this matter stands and will not be overturned.
i have never used any other bots. i only used this 3 hours in my garrison without background mode(the screen was on focus). be careful guys. i am from EU by the way. got 72 hours ban and appealed,this was the result.
I got the same type of ban several months ago, but I was using a private mob-killing bot. The ban was a direct result of players reporting me. I'm sorry about your ban but I don't think it was because of any sort of automatic detection, just doesn't seem to fit the profile. That being said, I urge everyone to practice caution when botting, I've done all I could with this tool but obviously staying still, doing the same thing over and over again for long periods of time gets suspicious. I also haven't ruled out GM whispers and teleportation checks.
Could be a GM that manually checked me . It made me suspicious that i just got banned right after i posted my fishes on AH. just like 10 secs later.
It was morning so perhaps there was a GM at AH watching what people post and saw my items,and when i got them? I am quite sure no one reported me,i never used anything else and i was sitting in my own garrison.
well my fishing went from 30 to 600s i hope they don't reverse it back lol i can live without ever using bots![]()
