If you're writing to the last hardware action address and it's not working, you're likely doing it wrong. That method has worked for years to my knowledge.

oh sick, thank you. I just use that macro and i never go afk?

how to do it right?

Well, the way I do it is to update the last hardware action with the current time every five seconds.

Show us some code and we'll be able to help you. The current offset is 0x00BB2C74 (not rebased) btw.

main()
{
	Loop
	{
		cont := true
		Sleep 100
		om.update()
		om.player.setpos()
		antiAfk()
		gosub fight
		if cont
			gosub loot
		if cont
			gosub walk
	}


......


antiAfk()
{
	mem.write(mLastHardware,A_TickCount)
}


.......

global mLastHardware := mem.baseaddress + 0xBB2C74

ahk code, and thx for helping

mem.write is UInt by default

Make sure you use the Tickcount used by WoW and not the tickcount from your system. Using Enviroment.TickCount always caused problems for me

For anti-AFK, or for other things, like movement? For anti-AFK it really shouldn't matter since the code that reads that variable compares for a difference of like five minutes. The problem with Environment.TickCount for movement or other things where more closely matching WoW's values is important, you don't get to specify whether to use GetTickCount() or QueryPerformanceCounter(). I am not sure what WoW does currently, but there used to be a console var to specify which one WoW should use. If you knew which it used, and it used a particular one always by default (which one depends on the WoW version), you could make the corresponding system call to get the value, and it would work fine.

I just used this one:
Environment.TickCount Property (System)

and I never had a problem with anything except going AFK randomly

Most useful and easy way.

Unless you somehow time travelled to 2006, I hope your joking! This is by far the ugliest method ever!

IIRC the /afk command is different to actually becoming inactive, and won't be removed by hardware updates. It's been a long while since I touched anti-AFK stuff, so don't quote me on it. I just seem to remember it this way.

Unless you're leaving your toon in a resting area where logging out is instant.

Unless you somehow want to be tracked, and banned, this is the safest method so far, made with a timer. No matter how ugly it is (for you) if works then nothing to say about.
