Multiboxing new follow in bg idea

[Eclipz8002]

Hi,

To many multiboxer the removal of /follow in bgs and some wpvp is a big deal. Blizzard claims that this was to punish bots. Here comes the idea, a software that Create a path (master account) and simultaneously feed it to the slave accounts(acc1, acc2,etc). Also in order to maintain the feed the user will have to press a key(like W) to keep the feed going(char moving), This basically simulates follow.

I dont know if these is something realistic.
I feel that the major issue will be create a path (master account) and simultaneously feed it to the slave accounts with less than a second of delay.

At that point... Why not simply broadcast the w key to all windows?
The biggest problem is maintaining correct camera angles otherwise some toons decide to run off into oblivion.

Interact with target would be a viable option if it worked.. but that got patched out as well I think? People were able to use interact with target on pets to follow in BG's once upon a time

no camera angle is going to be perfect, you will see the character (toon) moving away slowly, but what happend if u get fear, stun or something then gg there will be no comeback from that, try to move forward 5 toons all facing different directions (worst care scenario) due to a cc. I think they already fix the pet follow thing.

The API allows you to get the direction your main character is facing. Using pixel data and broadcast that to the other bots and adjust accordingly.

Could u explain in details how to achieve this, please

Here's the thing.. Key presses must be cast at once, once you start adding delays to the keypresses on the slave windows, you start dancing a very thin gray line...

Though Im not sure on possibility/safety of possibly recording camera angles, and letting a program set THOSE while you broadcast a keystroke to all windows ?

Once you start adding a PATH and talking about recording => casting movement to slaves, you get dangerously close to automation.. and well, welcome to banland. Keep in mind : ONE keypress for each action.

What I'm trying to do is to simulate follow since it was ban in bg and some wpvp

[Eclipz8002]

two things will be needed:
1. record pathway of Char 1
2. cast that path to Char 2,3,4,etc but to make that broadcast usable as long as u press a key(and with almost no delay from recording and broadcasting).

Is these realistic, achievable and bannable that the question.

[Razzue]

As I stated, at that point there is no need for a "path" .. you might as well just broadcast the walk key for all windows.

You can not force a slave to follow a certain path without the risk of being banned. There is no way in game to force your character to follow a string of co-ordinates, that would fall under automation.

[Eclipz8002]

As I stated "the walk key doesnt work properly, in just a few seconds your chars will be going different directions, and im not incluiding when u get a CC. because the whole purpose of this is bg and some wpvp situation.

Is there a place I can learn more about multi boxing? I have 2 level 40+ mages so would love to use them together if possible
