Spartacus - BG Bot & Utility
Q&A
What is Spartacus?
Spartacus is a free utility written by myself that queues users into BG's, monitors glider to do appropriate actions in the bg (such as handling deaths, or getting stuck), etc.
Note: Spartacus is NOT a stand alone bot program. It interfaces with glider to allow you to continuously queue and bot in bgs, using glider. In order to get the most out of this experience it will require two things:
What can I do to help you?
I'm always looking for beta testers who have AIM. Also, if you have a problem you can help me by posting an
intelligent post complete with version number, glider logs and spartacus logs as well as a description of what you were doing at the time.
Also, you can

Installation and Setup
1. Download the compressed file from:
http://www.worldofjack.org/Spartacus/Spartacus v0.1.1.rar
2. Extract it's contents to wherever is convienent for you (with a program such as WinRar).
3. Open the extracted folder and run Spartacus.exe. Then click on "Setup".
4. Click on the Installation tab. Browse to your glider <root> folder. Then, browse to your WoW <root> folder.
5. Click "Install" if it notifies you that ahelper is not installed. Spartacus will NOT WORK without this addon.
6. Click the Settings tab. Browse to and select the BG profile you plan to use. Fill in the rest of your settings to your liking.
7. Ensure your Remote Port and Password are set correctly. This is a feature that must be turned on in Glider (on the main page of its configuration window).
8. Click "Save".
9. Load up WoW and at the character select screen, click AddOns. Ensure "ahelper" is checked/enabled.
10. The addon SSPVP is KNOWN to messup Spartacus. It conflicts with the ahelper addon at the moment. Disable it when using this program.
Using Spartacus:
1. Ensure the bg profile you wish to use is selected in Spartacus.
2. With your character run somewhat near the battlemasters you wish to queue in with. I find the new queue-in method works best if you are zoomed out somwehat.
3. Click Start!
Features
- Group Profile generation to let glider queue you in.
- Detects nearest battlemaster to your character and attempts to queue you in with them. No x/y mouse setting. Just click 'Start'!
- Random names for process and window titles.
- Directly Interfaces with Glider
- Auto detect start of bg
- and more!
To-Do:
- Remove dependence on an AddOn (If I can get it to work exactly the way I want it to.. working on it.)
- Fix flaky background mode code.
- Allow dual botting.
- Finish adding stats recorder code.
