LAZYBOT support thread, Q&A, requests and updates

[whatuthink]

great job! thx to u guys making the bot work and provide supports of the bot
1 question: i select fishing engine, and click profiles setting, i suppose it should be settings of load/make fishing profile or options related to fishing. however there is a small blank window poped out, nothing in this window. is there any way to make it load a fishing profile instead of fishing at same place ?

@Whatuthink
The fishing engine is to fish at one place.

If you want to fish following a path then you will need to use a flying profile that will loop around the border of the places where you want to fish. This kind of fishing is more suitable for school fishing. In this case the settings for how you will cast fish, put lure ect are in the Engine settings.

Disable Mouse Hook, as reported earlier in the thread and in the first post, there has been alot of bans lately from that.
If you don't wan't the bot to steal your mouse, enable memory writing, when you enable it, as the window that appear says, AT YOUR OWN risk. The bot is 100% passive if u don't enable memory writing or mouse hook.
So:
Memory writing OFF: 100% undetectable but will steal your mouse
Memory writing ON: as far as i can tell, warden does not scan to find lb, unless reported from another player, so be carefull where/how you are botting.
Mouse hook OFF.

Yea, I read that mouse hook should be off but I had no idea what mouse hook did. So without that info I was unable to determine if that was normal behavior or not. Thanks!


One last question, Is there anyway to black list a spot so the bot avoids it when routing? There is a branch that I sometimes get stuck on because a mob spawns a few feet behind it and the bot that's a straight line approach once spotted. I have tried putting more frequent nodes to specifically avoid that spot but he seems to end up there again after a few loops.

Or is there anyway to change what gets done when youre stuck? Suck as instead of just jumping, you can back up, turn right for a few feet, turn left then continue?

No, the only thing you can do is remove that spot, and change the path so it doesn't go trough there.

Hey Jumperu great to see that u picked up after the disappearance of the other thread on LB. 2 questions is there any way i could get my hands on ur source code with the offsets that u used, that would b a great help. I also just recently made a alt acc to start to farm in prep for MoP and was wondering whats the safest way to transfer the gold and farmed items to my main acc, i know that there's never a 100% safe way but just wondering what u thought would b the safest way to do that.

Thanks for all the hard work and keep it up!!

safest way to transfer gold is either 1 of 2 ways. #1 guild bank deposit by bot accnt, then guild bank withdrawl by main account (like an alt from main account)
and when mailing gold. be sure 20-30k ish at a time at most. ive seen someone get banned temporarily just for sending like 180k gold from 1 toon to another to purchase a rare item from someone else before. and that person made their gold without botting. so huge gold amounts through in game mail is risky.

the other safest way is direct trading between the 2 accounts. place 20-30k at most in trade window and from main account. throw in some sort of item to look like a legit trade. In game mailing of gold is the least safest way to send gold though. at least in any huge amounts. blizzard has a sort of auto alarm that goes off when more than X amount of gold is mailed Via in-game-mail.

@madden92 and other US users of LB
I need to have more feedback on the issues you have with US wow.exe. I do not see real changes in the client itself so I need to have more log of the issues.

If you receive the message: "Skill to low", then it means that during the interaction with the node (mine or flower), we have a red message that appears containing the word "requires" if someone could catch what is the exact message, may be we could find a way to fix that.
Another way to workaround that is to get the exact sentence when you try to mine/herb a node that is too high for your level. If someone from the US can let me know the sentence.

Just stopped by wondering if you could help me.
Whenever I start Lazybot up again for the night (Bot overnight), it ALWAYS makes me re-do the settings. I have to go back into General/Engine/etc to change all the settings, as it is always reverting to the default. Any ideas?

[romb0t]

@Phantom35,
For me it is an issue of writing the settings as they should be saved in the Settings folder of LB. Just look at all the .ini you have in here and see if the dates change when you do some modifications in the UI.

hello guys ,
im using LB now and then i got invited to MoP béta and i would like to make some profiles for later , i tried to update the offsets but yet im not a coder so i got minor knowledge about it, i got all the software to do it but could not find a proper guide or tutorial to update the offsets !
thanks in advance Roflkoptor

[romb0t]

@Roflkoptor
From my side, I think MoP will need more than just some offsets So I am not trying to begin to work on it now at least till October or November.

[Toneshifterz]

Hi, i was wondering how come this bot doesn't come with a rogue profile? I been trying to find a subtetly rogue profile for awhile now. Can you explain or tell me what's the deal with this?

Thank you.

There is a link in the first post of this thread with behaviors for all classes. Unrar them in the behaviors folder in main lb folder.

[paintpauller]

Just want to give every1 a update on the bot and what i have confirmed to work on US servers and what i have not. As i posted earlier the fishing engine (standing in one spot fishing) is working flawlessly. Last night i did some testing on the flying engine and am able to confirm that it works for pool fishing (flying around and fishing in pools). I also recall some1 saying that u needed to have the "Find Fish" spell from the daily quest to do pool fishing but i can confirm that that is not true, the radar will pick up the pools even with out the spell along with all herbs and mining nodes with out having the professions. I will b lvling up my mining/herbing soon to test them out with the flying engine.

I plan on testing if warden scans LB's used offsets. That way we will know how safe using Memory writing is ATM.

when engages a enemy it start to jump arround. Is really anoyng since sometimes pulls more enemies

[grandegato]

Is there any other place when I can read up on Lazy bot? I really hate asking so many questions when I know there has to be documentation out there. I have already read the guide posted on the LB thread but was hoping for more.

Pretty much i have questions regarding behaviors and profile making. Theres a list of them, such as why some behaviors call spells via button press and others call it via spell name... And just a more in depth profile guide.
