I have tried all three routines and multiple planets and characters and I cant get the bot to run for more than 15-30 minutes. Usually it kills one set of mobs and just stands there tile it afk logs out. Never had this trouble in the past. With each update of the bot it gets worse and worse. In my opinion it currently is not even in a working condition, it needs to be addressed. Nobody wants to step up and take responsibility for the bot not working they just lay blame on a bad game client. Sure Swtor has some bugs and bad code but it the bot has had no attention in pretty much a year other than post patch memory updates and it has certainly gotten worse.
Well, Aevitas actually pushed an update which addressed an old issue between that last two patches. That being said, I'm having similar issues, although mine can sometimes run for a few hours. It would help if you posted a log or two of the errors you're getting when the bot freezes so that the devs here know where to start. For example, I've noted at least three errors that seem to repeat when experiencing a freeze. The most recent is the "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" error, as demonstrated in this log: View attachment 2013-04-04 00.23.zip Please attach your most recent log(s) as well. Cheers, -D
I run modified Fight at Joe's routines for each of my bots right now, and to be honest, as long as I don't run into profile issues, I can leave the dang thing on for quite some time. Last night running one of the questing profiles, I started it, showered, watched some of the Reds game, came back and it was still going. There is a call in Fight at Joe's that pauses periodically due to what he calls "GreyMagic" issues, but doesn't comment on the exact reason he does it (although, I never really have looked to hard). I wonder if this has anything to do with the issues others are seeing.
I know the bot has Unhandled exception issues and the ociasional error reading memory but for the most part I'm guessing the issues are mesh server related. Even when the server is up now it seems its getting hammered so bad that you just can't get the communication you need to move. My bot never just locks up or anything it always just stops doing anything. It will defend itself when the lasts a it killed before stopping to move respawn and attack it but it will not move or initiate combat. If this is a routine problem them someone needs to make a working routine because even the default "it always works routine" does not work at all.
I hear you. But it will still help to post a few of them here to support the issues listed in your new thread. They need a log to see what was happening when your issues arose, and assuming they'll go back and dig through old threads for logs which might or might not apply here will not help these problems get fixed any faster. Same here - I started two before bed, and they were both running when I woke up. One looked stuck, but it started up again on its own after a minute. I noticed that you can always tell when something's wrong by watching the log file; if it begins increasing in size very quickly, it's time to restart the bot.
I was having troubles with a profile I was attempting to write most of the day yesterday... but I did successfully run my Ilum dailies last night without problems (well... it skipped a quest for some reason, but it still finished the script ) and as far as I know my profile is working and running right now. I guess I could update you when I go to lunch, but so far I haven't noticed this problem at all. As far as Wone said... I actually did have more problems when I was running wingit, and then I went to a modified Joe's and had much better luck. That was before this patch though. I've always wondered what the deal was with the "gray magic" issues.
Ok so by modified Joes you mean? What did you modify, can you share it with us because usually joes is the one I have the most problems with but I am sure it is a class by class basis because most of the classes I have used the bot on are not supported by Joes and just use the default.
yes please share modified Joes....I have no understanding of any script language and would appreciate some help.
It's a modified routine for Operatives. Woneone was nice enough to help me out by providing it because I was having problems with my modified wingit routines (mostly because I'm not very good at this scripting stuff, but also because I hadn't set my affinities yet at that time, and was having larger problems I was improperly blaming on the routines). I'm at work right now... I can post it later but I don't want to do it without Woneone's permission because it is like 99% his modifications.
so fare i have not had a problem using the bot i am using http://www.thebuddyforum.com/buddy-wing-forum/buddy-wing-profiles/86764-mizzles-republic-10-50-grind-pack.html and using http://www.thebuddyforum.com/buddy-wing-forum/buddy-wing-classes/85891-fight-joes.html for my cc and it is running smooth
