Honorbuddy Update Status - Patch 6.1.0 (Build #19702)

[SIZE=+1]Patch 6.1.0 Build #19678[/SIZE][SIZE=+1] has dropped.[/SIZE]

Honorbuddy v2.5.12898.768 will not work with this new version of the WoWclient.

The 6.1 patch introduces a number of changes to Garrisons, Talents, Classes, etc. You can find the change notes here:

Patch 6.1 Feature Overview​

If this is your first experience with Honorbuddy after a WoWclient patch, you can find more information about the situation here:

BosslandGmbH:HelpDesk:Game client "Patch Recovery" blues​

The overall patch plans are here:

Blackrock Foundry release schedule​

Each of these WoWclient patches may, or may not, require a corresponding Honorbuddy patch. Additionally, there may be the typical hotfixes that can cause downtime when Bliz discovers "uh oh"s when placed under load, or the exploitive prowess of the gaming community.

[SIZE=+1]When will a new Honorbuddy be ready?[/SIZE]

The Bossland GmbH development staff is working to accommodate all the needed changes. As always, our highest priority is to make certain that your WoWaccounts are not placed in jeopardy with new anti-botting measures.

The Bossland GmbH development staff will keep you informed of progress updates in this thread. But, the thread will only be updated when appropriate (i.e., an internal milestone has been met).​

All threads pertaining to "cannot attach" issues, the accelerated release of an update, "honorbuddy lite," complaints about the bot being down, and general trolling will be closed or deleted.

[SIZE=+1]FAQs[/SIZE]

Will DungeonBuddy support Blackrock Foundry when the new Honorbuddy is released?
No. The DungeonBuddy scripting is incomplete for this at the moment, and there is no ETA. We suggest you monitor HB-1834 ("DungeonBuddy: Support for Blackrock Foundry LFR") in the "Currently Known Bugs" list. The list of currently supported dungeons and raids is also available in the DungeonBuddy thread:

Supported DungeonBuddy dungeons and raids​

Will you be supporting a 64-bit version of Honorbuddy in this release?
No. WoD ships with a 32-bit WoWclient. We've had this discussion many times in the past, and the answer is "no, not until its absolutely needed". Here are two posts to get you started:

• The Senior Development staff's stance
• "64 bit" thread

Does the next Honorbuddy release support Windows 10?
No. Windows 10 is not a released product at this time. The manufacturer doesn't even support it, yet. Support for Windows 10 will come after it becomes a released product. Some people have had success in using DX11 with Windows 10—but again, we cannot offer support for it at this time.

Before you waste time loading Windows 10, know that the Win10 '.9926 drop has broken backward-compatiblity with a number of applications, including Honorbuddy.
​

The process is going to take as long as it takes.
Please be patient while we get everything working again.
Thank you for your understanding.

 

[size=+1]Status update as of 25-Feb-2015 11:44UTC[/size]

Even though the patch size was relatively small, there were a significant number of changes made. At this time, it appears we will have an internal test build available later today. It will probably be tomorrow before a [Testing] release can be made available.

We've also observed that the WoWclient is using an excessive amount of CPU, and producing low frame rates for what our boxes are capable (with no Honorbuddy involved). We hope there will be a hotfix to address this significant WoWclient performance issue.

Yes, we are aware of the new 6.1 patch that is live on both the EU and US realms. The team is examining the content, and looking at what needs to be done.

Thank you for your patience while we get Honorbuddy back on its feet again.
