HB ARCHIVES: Kick's Old Posts Thread--DO NOT DELETE!

On "Hard as a Rock" today, all 3 of my characters are unable to interact with the Mogu Statues, pretty evident at the end of the log.

I have a batch file that makes a fresh copy of HB for me daily, does an SVN update etc, this is the same way I run every day, first time I've seen this issue.

Check your mesh directory. Your log is saying your mesh directory is unreachable.

 

That one is untested. Thanks for the log I'll see what I can do tonight. Wasn't sure how that one would work.

 

"The Ashweb Matriarch"

Bot just sits at the questgiver after picking the quest up. Not sure if this is a tested one or not.

Log attached.

Sorry haven't put tht one in. It's wicked easy I've just been...distracted.

 

Hi, Robinekstrom1,

Go visit Tabetha is in Dustwallow Marsh. If you want more help than that, you'll need to toss your log.

Hi, Lexxor,

Aye, I have the same heartburn for the same reason. In whichever profile you're running, use Notepad++, and edit the lines to look as follows:

<SellGreen>False</SellGreen>
<MailGreen>True</MailGreen>​

IMHO, these kinds of decisions should be left to the user, and not to the profile writer. Alas, this is the only machinery that Honorbuddy gives us.

Hi, Boodgie,

No, the Dread Wastes was designed as a flying profile, and will never be recast for ground mount. Make certain you didn't cheat yourself out of needed experience by skipping a MoP zone in Kick's profile pack. Some that come up short on experience are skipping Krasarang Wilds, for instance.

Your other alternatives are to run Botanist's profile pack (grinding) or Cava's profile pack (questing), then come back to Kick's Dread Wastes.

Hi, JKilgren,

This could either be a bug in Honorbuddy, a bug in a Custom Behavior being used by the profile, a misbehaving plugin, the profile code identifying the wrong MobId or FactionId or failing to provide a necessary argument to a Custom Behavior, or a number of other possibilities. As Aroxan pointed out, without a log, we'll be unable to help you on these types of problems.

cheers,

Hi, Wuffles,

Regarding selling...
The selling of items is controlled by two things: the Honorbuddy/Protected Items.xml file, and the sell-by-color elements (i.e., <SellGreen>, <SellBlue>, etc) contained within the profile. The Protected Items.xml file defines individual items that should not be sold. More info about Protected Items.xml, here and here.

IMHO, the "selling by color" choices should be left to the user and not the profile writer. Alas, this is the only mechanism Honorbuddy provides for selling-by-color.


As to the Sha...
Aye, I've run into that also. The appropriate blackspots are in the profile, but the way blackspots work and the meshing of that particular area (very flat), Honorbuddy is forced to traverse through the area anyway. You can read more about how meshes and blackspots work, here.

You've no choice but to help it through this area, unless you are very crunchy--like a Paladin, Warrior, or DK.

I don't know what is going on exactly but kicks profiles used to work beautify. Then when MOP came out I started running into more and more issues in every zone and now the questing profiles hardly get me more than a level or two before crapping out. It is more worth my time to make my own grinding profiles than it is to use kicks. Now with that said, did something change to where kick has to redo stuff?

 

Hi, Hell-Razor,

For me, and many others, the profiles have run exceedingly smooth with the occasional hiccup or helping hand needed. But, our expectations may be different on the word "smooth".

At one point, there were serious meshing issues in the MoP zones that caused me to yell a lot at the bot--but these were not profile problems. The mesh issues seem to get repaired a couple of weeks ago.

So, I don't know what exactly you mean by "issues' and "crapping out". But, if you feel this way, rather than roll your own, I'd give a look at Botanist's profile pack (grinding) or Cava's profile pack (questing). I've yet to use either of these, but its obvious both authors are working very hard to make their profile packs the best that can be done.

cheers,
chinajade

 

No worries bud, if it wasn't for your profiles I'd have either quit or written my own, just tryin to help any way I can

 

Yeah I'm plotting out a massive project, as well as a small side one, and the fact that there's only 20-25 dailies (out of 200+) left, I've been getting lazy after my bug fixes go in. Plus some of these I need to see/do and they seems to be so rare.

But thank you for the reports. I prefer them over just "it's broken"

 

Is it possible, that you can make it so it's possible to turn off killing mobs between hotspots and looting mobs?

I would like it only to loot Q-related mobs.

Hi, Lassenc,

This is not a profile problem, and should be addressed to the Support forum.

But while you're here, the Looting and Mobs settings are controlled by Honorbuddy:

Honorbuddy -> Settings & Tools -> uncheck "Loot Mobs", uncheck "Kill Between Hotspots"​

Alas, Honorbuddy is not selective about the loot acquired from Mobs. In other words, if you turn off "Loot Mobs" you will also miss out on picking up your quest items.

Where do I put the scripts form SNV folder? Dungeon scripts? :S

 

Nope. Leave them in the same folder as the profiles. If you name the SVN folder OMGDAILIES, then all profiles should go in ONGDAILIES, and the scripts should go into OMGDAILIES\Scripts. If you get errors saying cant find files, it would be because of placement error.

 

Thanks! I will try it out. You are the best!
