Creating Profiles

I'm looking for a fairly brief overview/guide to creating HB grinding profiles.

I'm an experienced botter, but new to HB. All previous bots I've used (Glider, OB, etc) have provided a fairly simple waypoint design, but HB doesn't seem to follow the same style.

Can anyone provide a brief explanation, or link to an existing guide? I'm fairly literate, and will catch on quickly if someone can just provide the basics.

Much appreciated.

 

I asked the same question and was told to check out the wiki xD
There's an empty profile there, all u need to add are hotspots, protected & mail items, and maybe a vendor/mailbox
-edit and perhaps add the right factions

 

I'll check it out, thanks for the response.

 

Quick, stupid question from me on this topic. How do you get the co-ordinates used by HB? Carbonite or any other addon doesn't show them in that much detail. do they include height or something?

 

In HB, on the tab "Profiles & Meshes" there's a button called "My Position"... should be what u're looking for

 

Any suggested profile creator plugins for a simple grinding profile?

I see several options out there, I just don't know which one(s) are most liked.

eProfilecreator is what I have my eye on so far.

 

The answer is no.
The reason the answer is no is because they are not waypoints, they are hotspots.
A hotspot is a point on the map with a set radius, this merely defines where to kill and not how to travel.

If you want to make a profile which uses hotspots to travel then you need to look at adding stuff like RandomizeHotspots and MaximumHotspotTime which is declared in ms.

 

<chuckles> None that we know of. If you find better, I'll drop it in the Wiki here.

cheers,
CJ

 

eProfileCreator, ProfileMaker, CreateProfile, etc are all plugins I was looking for.

That's all I needed.
