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

Hi, Damoiscrazy,

I'm curious as to which Plugin you're using to protect your items.

I too, have heartburn with some of Kick's choices for mailing and selling. But I've even greater heartburn that these choices are placed into the hand of the profile writer instead of the user.

One thing you might want to pursue...
If you've a Plugin that protects things that you like, talk to the author. He should be able to periodically check if the profile has modified the settings different than the choices you made in your plugin. Then the plugin could put them back, if different.


In any case, this isn't really a profile problem. It is an Honorbuddy design problem, and perhaps a plea to the BosslandGmbH employees in the Support forum might bring it some attention.

Hi, eXtOphius,

First... thanks for solving your own problem!

Second...
Indeedy, there are known problems with Mixed-Mode and Questing. The two don't play well together. The problem is that not all quest state/progress is preserved when you return from a Battleground/Dungeon/whatever.

There's not much that the profile writer can do about this. Other than offer a warning as we find in the first post:

DO NOT USE MIXED MODE WHILE QUESTING!​

cheers and thanks again,
chinajade

 

Hi,

My friend and I are currently both having issues with our bots when it comes to NPCs with multiple quests. I have upgraded HB to the newest version and cleared my caches. I am fairly certain it is a latency issue because we are currently in an area where the internet causes us to always have a 1-5 second lag. It seems that due to the lag the bot gets a head of its self and closes the window before it accepts/turns in. I was wondering if there was anyway to add a longer delay to account for lag or possibly another fix so I don't have to babysit the bot. Thanks in advance!

 

Hi, Lhatemyles,

This is not a profile problem, and you need to post the problem to the Support forum.

5 New Quests added to Operation: Shieldwall!

Horde to come soon, I promise, its tough without a Horde char to actually test the areas around, whether pathing works or not.
Pathing at Lion's Landing is non-existant, if I wasn't testing it, I'd never know!

I also redid the Operation Shieldwall file to not include all the storyline quests, instead to call them from scripts. Faster Dailies that way, but they won't be implemented until I can make proper Rep requests (soon...)

 

Kick- May I ask why you made dread wastes only usuable for level 90s? Is there a way I can tune it so im able to use it before 90. Thanks

 

Hi, Pitmouse,

The Dread Wastes profile was designed for a flying mount. To fly in MoP requires level 90.

Flying through the zone is both faster and safer for toons. Reflowing the profile for a ground mount would involve significant rewriting of the profile for that zone. You will engage mobs between quest hubs and all kinds of other sticky situations, that flying avoids. Reflowing the profile is probably never going to happen.

Your choice to get level 90 include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Cava's profile pack (questing)
• Botanist's profile pack (grinding)
• Many other profile packs offered by the various authors
• Manually go find an area to grind in until you ding
• Run the first few quests in the Dread Wastes manually, until you ding, then go train flying.
  After that, Kick's profiles will skip over the quests you did by hand

cheers,
chinajade

 

will these profiles work when level 90?

 

Hi, Jeck9,

Absolutely. I do it all the time when trying to get Loremaster.

You may have to edit them to remove the MaxLevel constraint. For whatever profile you want to run, find the line that looks like this:

<MaxLevel>81</MaxLevel>​

And comment it out like this:

<!-- <MaxLevel>81</MaxLevel> -->​

Gimmie a lil credit I've been dumping logs all over the place lol.

Here's the log, amidst me stopping and starting a few times. Attempting to push through the morbid fascination the bot has with the hermit (by manually completing the quests), only for the bot to get infatuated with another quest giver only to rinse and repeat until the bot is stopped. Okay I'm gonna trim the log down, it's bigger than the 1mb file limit...

hi
wanna report a bug that is happening everytime to me(have fresh insatll with only anti drown and padaria dailie plugin and singular)
at the tiller there is a quest at the questgiver Farmer Fung thats i think the first Quest the profiele is doing i dont know the name exactly sry have completed it and not looked at it.

the bot is doing that q(completly) but not turning it in at famer fung, he runs to the farm spot and back to him again again and again.

keep on the fantastic work on that profile thx schadis

 

Hi, Codexjones <"CJ" Initial Thief>, and thanks for the fresh log!

It looks like you're suffering from the classic caching problem. To clear it...

• Shut down WoW and Honorbuddy
• Delete the WoW/Cache/, WoW/Data/Cache/, and Honorbuddy/Cache/ directories
• Restart WoW and Honorbuddy

Caches can get corrupted a couple of ways:

• You switch toons, or do a quick log out/in, without restarting Honorbuddy
• You simultaneously run multiple sessions of Honorbuddy from the same directory on disk

There are other (user caused) triggers, but these are the most common.

If that doesn't get you off-and-away, let's see yet another fresh log, please?

I can't seem to get the plugin Talented working. Any suggestions?

 

Hi, Yblaster2k,

Yes, post your complaint in whatever thread you got the Talented plugin from. The Talented plugin is not a problem with this profile.

cheers,
chinajade

 

I dont see the option for it in plugin window on HB

 

Once again, Yblaster2k,

You need to post your problem in whatever thread you obtained the Talented plugin from. Last time I checked, there was no version of the Talented plugin that works with the current version of Honorbuddy.

Please cease posting in Kick's Mega Profile Packs 1-90 thread about the Talented plugin--its completely off topic, and doesn't belong here.

cheers,
chinajade

 

Does this profile supports stops and restarts mid-location? I've been using it, on lvl 8 (mid durotar 5-12 profile) I had to stop and transfer the bot to another pc. Since that the bot can't restart the quests regardless if I show him the correct profile (5-12 duroter) or loader (1-12 loader).

 

Hi, Roleplayer,

Absolutely. All competent profile writers plan for stop/starts of Honorbuddy. Toons get stuck, in death loops, and tons of other situations that require a stop/start of Honorbuddy. It would be crazy for a profile writer not to accommodate this.

I haven't even got a guess as to why the profile is not working for you after switching computers--it should. Toss your log, and let's see if we can get you going.
