CowStats 3.0 (Honorbuddy web monitor) - HonorBuddy >= 1.945

Eh, I'll stick with the 2 open ports! Can't wait to give this a go when I finish work!

 

Ok, have set everything up, but won't load up details etc. Can you expand upon what you've said here? Don't quite understand what I have to enter...I know it's something simple

 

wtf - i used this when it was early beta - and i loved it. Now i see this... OMG you are awesome

 

Hi

I'm planning on buying either Honorbuddy or Pirox. I'm highly inclined to get HB but I need to ensure it has the features I need, especially being able to monitor and reply to whispers and chat from work. Does this allow me to do that easily? I created an MSN notification addon for GPBot, but that bot just doesn't cut it for me anymore. The monitoring features of this seem cool, but I'm happy to go without them if it means having a reliable whisper monitoring and replying system.

I'm at work now, so I can't read the thread too in-depth so I'm hoping someone can give me a response.

Thanks guys

 

Well, two points:
1. HB hates accents when it comes to send chat messages, and this plugin won't answer/say/whisper anything if there is any accent inside the message body or dest toon name.
2. You have a basic command line interface that works like the ingame chat window. It allows you to send any chat message (still, without any accents) by typing something like "whisper trolol I'm not a bot" or "reply Hello world". Read 1st post, "Remote control" section for more details.

Note that you need to open 1-2 ports on your computer to have CowStats working.

 

Is the accent issue something that's unavoidable outside of the main HB code? Or could the messages be manipulated via addons? If so I'll probably work on an addon that'll fix it but I'm assuming it's not possible. I've decided to go for HB over pirox because of how clean it seems, and that I have no respect for Pirox creating two seperate premium packages.

 

At the moment LUA injection/hooks are unstable, but I already use injection to send some chat messages. You don't need an addon for this:

"d?moniste" can be written as "d\130moniste" in LUA. (decimal code!)

I wouldnt say that HB is "clean" as you'll encounter some bugs here and there. But if you stick with "grind mode", no BG, it's rock stable for days.

'Funny' bug example with HB chat hook:

Should/might be fixed in next release, though...

 

Ah right so it's not that the bot just won't pick them up, they just need to be manipulated differently.

Is the message processing in hb safe? Is it simple memory reading and "[Enter] <message>" to send?

Hopefully I can purchase it tonight. I hope I'm not disappointed. It seems the experiences of users range from totally flawless to totally flawed.

 

I'm not in the dev team, hence this may be wrong. It looks like 'simple' mem reading and I *guess* they call a LUA function to send a chat message.

 

Updated to 3.0.1:
- Fixed number format errors (12,34 instead of 12.34)
- Can now submit accents or unicode string with remote commands!?11!!
- Stupid html mistake fixed

 

I installed this and when i try to load the page it says stopping web server . I also get stopping web server randomly spammed even when it is not enabled . The initial login page will load just when it tries to load the actual page it pops up with server stopped

 

I would say sasquatch. I've nothing understood.

 

hmmm well ok then random gibberish it is

Got an issue, the same one as I had on the 2.0. When I load http://localhost:1235/auth.htm (Aswell as Index.htm) I only get a blank white page, so my guess is that for some reason the webserver wont start or stay running. I get it to work very nice when I open the .htm file from ***\HB 1.9.4.5\Plugins\CowStats_http\www\auth.htm and index.htm.

I have checked the intrawebz and ports 1234 and 1235 is open (Well, I didnt open them, have NAT of in my router so I cant actually open any since they are already open).

Tried to check the log myself, and the only part connected to CowStats in it (Apart from the looting parts that comes up at every loot) is this:

[20:10:20:561] CowStats config loaded.
[20:10:20:842] [CowStats<WWW>]: Stopping web server...

[20:10:44:702] [CowStats]: starting socket server
[20:10:47:467] [CowStats]: LootTracker - Found 17 different items

So the webserver is actually starting, but somewhere it goes haywire and a blank white page is my sad resault :/

Any ideas?

 

For some reason, whenever I check my webhost (alloyvault.com/wow) when it's running, it will only actually load up on the computer running CowStats. So say I'm using computer 1 to run CowStats, I look at the link before this, and then it loads fine. But if I go to computer 2 CowStats on the website does not load.

 

I have this same issue ... I think im going to try a third party webserver and see what happens

 

Ran this for a few hours lastnight with no issues. Today I wake up, start it up, go get some soda and muncies, and come back to the bot just standing there scrolling the exceptions telling me to check the debug screen. Log is attached.

 

Rangbang: any awful error like "[CowStats<WWW>] Got an Exception! ..." in your log?

Zinc: so if I understood, you can access to the webserver from 2 different computers at the same time, but the last one won't refresh cowstats data. I have no clue as I'm able to access it through my local network on multiple computers. You might overload CowStats (and HB) if you have 2+ clients running with a refresh rate <= 1s.

My point of view is that CowStats clients should not directly talk with CowStats plugin for performance and security reasons. There will be a cache server called CS Remote, which will allow you to populate a database with many HB data sets. That feature won't show up soon because I need to work on other personal projects now.
