[A+H Fly - Quest] All Zone OCD Quest Completion Profile [IN DEVELOPMENT]

you should try hbvbeta...

 

Nice one ultragigatank. This could be great. Can I ask for the progress on this?

 

i think this will never be finished. there was so many users out there starting something like this but not one profile was finished. most of them dont know how much work it need to do this. look at kickz profile everyone is blaming him because some quests are not working, but they dont know how much work it toke to do this kind of questprofile.

good luck and a lot of redbull to you if you really want to start this.

 

THis is very good stuff you going on here! Yes it does suck that questing behaviors are not fixed yet but maybe in time there will be a solution shown in a matter of time? I have no coding skills but I am certainly no ding dong when looking at some basic questing profile. I also would donate for this if this came true. Gl and I hope your time to shine will be coming soon. cheers

 

Too bad this one died Was a great id?a tho

 

I Was gonna!!!! but...

 

Hasn't died. Majority of the work is done. Just won't be released until I do some more work on behaviors which is what I've been working on the last few months.

 

looking forward to it.

 

I think the reason why people think this is dead is because there hasn't been much discussed in public about this in the last 4 months. Going out on a limb here, but that's something I would call a dead project as well.

See:

"Very soon" =/= 4 months without anything being released for testing.

Not trying to call you out or be a pain in the ass, but just calling a duck a duck. If I had the knowledge to help with the behaviors, I would.

Any thoughts on when people can expect to see anything for testing, or otherwise? Some people, if they are like me, have been waiting to see something like this and have opted not to start on something similar in hopes of not putting in all this effort on multiple fronts and only have people use one of them after they are done; I'm sure you'd hate to put in all this effort for someone to release the same thing and have people focus on only using theirs instead of yours.

To end this on a positive note, I'm really looking forward to this and don't feel like you can't reach out to the community for assistance. I'm sure many people would love to help if they could.

 

Can't freaking wait til some or all of this is released. If it's as good as you're saying, expect your paypal to start filling up my friend.

 

Then let's discuss it! However, that was the point of my post to let people know it's not dead. Discussion below

Quest behaviors suck ass. I know nothing about scripting and plugin writing or lua and am doing this by hand to make sure as I go I'm doing it right. Which is why nothing is released yet.

Testing: Initially I was going to use the default quest behaviors. I'm not now. I'll tell you why. ex- Human starting area bot runs. When doing quests it runs within 1 cm of the wall returning to the quest giver, gets stuck a couple of times then jumps over the bush. Any class. That needs to be fixed. That's just -one- pathing behavior. Turning in certain quests triggers auto returns and accepts so fast the bot doesn't see it. Things like that have to be looked at individually from every zone and quest and quest giver in the game. Remember I have to script equipping bags ( yes I know other people have written plugins ), using BoA's, going back at 90 and doing it all on a flyer, ground mount support, walking support. When i have a single zone done in alpha to my standards as in the whole zone the way i want it to look, you'll know. I'll release it to test and -that- zone will be bug tested the shit out of.

This is going to sound like I'm being an ass, I'm not, I'm not doing this for money, or likes, or rep, I'm doing this because I want to. I don't care what other people do for profile releases. I'm doing this on my time. I don't have to do anything at all, i just chose to share this idea, concept and possible fruitition with the community as a whole. I'll release it when i think it's ready to be released as something I would use on my own computer, and account. I'll take the hit to pride if I have to say I can't finish it, but if it's 1 day or 1 year, as long as I'm doing it I'll try to keep everyone up to speed on the development.

I think I worded it wrong so let me word it a little better, that way there is no confusion.

The quest behaviors, while much better then they were before are a big fat brick wall. I am scavenging other peoples codes ( and yes keeping a list ) to see what works and what doesn't. As i pile in code and then test it myself ( I have a very high standard ) I try to iron out kinks that won't crash the client or look bot like. Once that part is done, I try to make it afk-able.

First: Afk-able + not bot like + smoothness =/= easy
Second: The scripting sometimes has to be done in a specific order otherwise it crashes the bot.
Third and everything else: I would LOVE to hand off testing to people, but I can't at this point. I'm doing this in my spare time. When it's done, it's done

So... here's where I'm at currently. I know what I want, I have the lists ( achievements per zone, metas per zone, creatures per zone, items per zone, etc ), the paths I want to take ( not what the bot wants ), the quest orders which "make sense", the -non- grinding approach, the call outs to do the lists above, the commands needed for those call outs, now i just need a proper quest behavior.

The quest behaviors are taking a long time. there's nothing I can do about that. Until I feel the quest behaviors are reliable, afk-able, and non-bot-like I won't release anything.

If you look at my Kunlai profile for snowlilys... just a gathering profile....took about 3 weeks to get the kinks out. Easy to make, use etc. 3 weeks. Now multiply a bit in terms of kinks. All I can say is be patient


i will definitely ask for help when it comes time to test.

 

Not doing this for money.

 

By 'All zone completion' - does this mean Loremaster completion, or just fully completing all the quests for the zones that it would visit on it's way to 90?

 

Completing -every- quest possible on the way to 90 in a zone ( including exp shut off so you don't out level the the zone if you decide to go that route ) or going back and completing eveything at 90, either way.

 

Just letting people know it's still in development. No ETA as of yet, still working on things.

 

Currently quest behaviors, DO WORK... you should probably work with cava or kickazz006 on extending their projects though...

 

Yes, I don't understand why you don't take Kick's profile wich include already a lot of quests and extend it ?
It would be easier no ?

 

That's what I'm doing when I get a few moments. I compiled another couple of missing quests in Borean Tundra a few days ago. Check Kick's thread for the code.
Though to be fair, both Kick and Cava are missing out whole zones of content.

 

If you're going to do this, break it up into manageable chunks. i.e. continents and expansions, then zones, then questing hubs.
I'm using Zygor to give a good starting quest order, and use a combination of wowhead and the addon QuestHubber for the rest.

I just need time. Or a lottery win.

 

Well you have my full support on this, I have a lot of alts at 90 with incomplete quests that I just don't want to manually do. I understand some quests -need- to be done manually and those are fine but for the rest I love this idea of a one size fits all profile.
