I am not familiar with the term "service" when it comes to botting, so let me see if I understand this:

You are creating a program that can read directly from the memory offsets of the game so you can get the numbers from there instead of the pixels on the screen, and then somehow send this on to the script or bot program that controls the character.

Is that correct?

if so, it sounds interesting, depending on what information is possible to harvest. Just player and mob health and such is so-so because you can easily read that from the screen anyway. If you can read stuff like facing direction, location coodinates and stuff like that however, then I am VERY interrested in getting this to work with my existing personal script :)

EDIT: Is is possible to get a completle list of all the offsets known so far? either paste it here, or PM me or something. I'd just like to go through it and see if there is information I can extract is very useful or not. I don't need all the info if there is any secrecy involved, just a list of what they are (HP, direction, coordinates ect.)

Lol browse the eq or ffxi sections and you will learn alot about scripting.

I have.. (from memory) player info (xyz, health, etc) mob info (xyz, level, health). I think those are what i started with. Those should be enough to convert one of the eq2 harvesting/hunting bots to vanguard. I use the same syntax in all of my services so it wont take long to get one up.

*pokes wyvernx*

Whats the holdup? I want this yesterday (or last week preferably) lol.

I hope your not seriously entertaining the idea of eating/sleeping until its done, are you? *cracks whip*

no, seriously, just exited to get to try it out. With all the UI display bugs that Vanguard has so far, measurig screen pixels can often be inaccurate. Hopefully the direct offset reads won't be.

Whiel we wait for you to finish this, do you have any documentaion or anything so I can research on how to get your service to communicate with my script? I'l be trying to get it to work with autoit.

Wyvern, you probably shouldn't use hard-coded offsets.

Umm... I have NEVER used hard coded offsets.. see some of my other threads. Newbs.. haha..

Anyway. Probably the biggest hurdle down. Looking like mid week.. tues or so for basic service.

Its going to be at first exhume based, however, i'm talking to admin to add a API for exhume so that it can be used from other apps ie c# etc.

Sorry for being daft, but this would then mean outside scripts and programs (ie. run outside of exhume) could access this data right? If so, that would be great! :)

If I'm not mistaken, that is exactly what he means.

Wyvern - can I easily use the Exhume api from a .net application? If so, are there any example around that you might point me towards for instantiating it?

Or rather, were you intending to deliver yer service as an assembly\com object, wrapping Exhume, that we can leverage?

Or, lastly, does Exhume use a windows scripting engine so that we can can write .cs or .vb scripts and it will parse them?

Sorry for the litany of questions, but I'm still struggling with the Exhume documentation.

Dang you guys are confusing me.
I can program in Php, Sql, Html(suck) C++ , and C#, But i'm horrible with Vbs..

Wyvern when you say it will be exhume based what do you mean?
I can't get my head around exhume. Xunleashed i get. I think of xunleashed like this.

Xunleashed is the glue that bonds the Game's memory to the Games Controls And the rest of the world. and one can write a script to access that memory, and do some mathmatical calculations on it and depending the outcome , Act upon it in any number of ways.

However Exhume Just seems to be a editor? that can compile exe's

What am i missing here?
I would love to just be able to code something in C# and have it work in Xunleashed.
Damn that would make my botting way easier..

ALthouhg i will just settle with Wyverns :) since it rocked when i played eq2. I called it the marrage saver

I was having the same sort of problem Sinshar .. I dug into it and perhaps if you check this link out it might help it solidify?
