Vanguard Bot - VGExtreme Scritping Service : VGExtreme General Discussion - Page 7

Sure I understand.
The simplest of all algoritms from muving from currentloc to wanted loc would be to just first consider the X loc, and then move until it matches the X loc, then consider the Y loc and move until that matches too, and youl be there.

of course, the better algoritm would involve a little simple math. When you know the difference between currentlocX and wanted locX and difference between currentY and wantedY, you make a simple pythagoras computation. That will give you the exact angle you need to turn to in order to get to where you want (and it will also give you the distance, allthough it would probably be better to continously check your loc to see if you have reached your target rather than relying on the distance).

Its pretty simple math, but I understnad it can be daunting to delve into for beginners. I will gladly post an effective algoritm for this as soon as exhume gets its autoit compatability. WyvernX briefly mentioned this was soon to come, and I code ten times slower in VBscript

Hmm I am diong

if ( mobisAttacking(VG.Target) ) then
do soemthing...


however its always reporting true

jdillard, yes install the .net framework.

sinshar, yes I have some FacetoMob and MovetoMob functions i'm gonna include in next push.

So what am i missing with the

mobisattacking(VG.Target)

IT seems that it returns a 1 if its Idling. and 0 if its attacking.

I can't seem to get it to work right..

I was running exhume then the vge, that's where I was wrong, thanks. Feel like such a newb heh. I'm still used to the good ole XU days.

Is there a window that pops up in VGExtreme or does it just run as a service in the backround? Hmm ok it ran once after a few tries, now I keep getting Page cannot be found msg in the vgextreme window. Windows firewall off, no other software firewall, just a router (with firewall).

Glad you got it solved

The VGE engine itself just runs in the background, but the demo script that comes with it comes with a window that tracks the nearby mobs as an example of what you can do with the engine. It is on by default so you just run the script as is to see it. it dosn't really DO anything tho, so its meant to be replaced by something self-coded which may or may not include a GUI like the example shows, as you prefer it A GUI would be useful if you want direct control over what the script does, but it isn't nessecity for making a script that takes advantage of all the data VGE mines.

I would hate to jump for joy yet. Still get the error that it can't find nearestmob. Look at the screenie:

delete the old exhumehelper.dll and run vge. that should get the new dll and run what you need

Yea that's exactly what I did to get to this spot. Didn't want to delete it again. But I will try it once I get home from work. Wondering how many times I gotta delete this thing to get it working heh.

Ok, it seems this dll business is very buggy. Sometimes it shows a window that says connecting to x.x.x.x port 81 and sits there. Sometimes it shows the window above and page cannot be found. Sometimes it just runs in device manager and no window..... Here is what I do:

1. delete exhumehelper.dll
2. run vgextreme.exe (new dll is downloaded)
3. close vgextreme.exe because I get page cannot be found as my above post
4. run exhume and login
5. run vgextreme again and it loads (no window pops up), see it in device manager using up 60-80% usage nonstop and 26MB
open vgextreme.vbs in exhume and press F5 then I get the error as above:
Error: Line: 107, Char: 4 :: Object required: 'getNearestMobs(..)'
Error: Line: 107, Char: 4 :: Object required: 'getNearestMobs(..)'

I also have tried not closing the vgextreme the first time (cause it loaded into the device manager and ran exhume. Same outcome.

What is it that I'm doing wrong here? Am I supposed to be running Exhume at all or does vgextreme take the place of exhume (which is what I think is the case)?

If this is the case then vgextreme just does not work on my machine and no login ever pops up... Yet Exhume does...

Im' not sure what the problem is, I have Re installed numerious times. here is my excat steps


1) Make A directory called Exhume ( I make mine in the My Documents directory)
2) Copy then Exhume.exe file there..
3) Run the Exhume.exe file (let it do its thing)
When its finished.. ( give it 2 minutes, sometimes its a slow install)
4) Delete ExhumeHelper.dll
5) Go download VGExtreme and unzip it where ever you like
6) Move the Unziped file VGExtreme.exe into the Exhume directory you made in step1.
7) Run (double click) on VGExtreme.exe and wait again.. it will promt you to log in.

If this doesn't work you have a firewall setting Preventing you from getting out/in

Thanks sinshar. Did exactly that (which I have done a few times). Same result.... Reason why I said exhume works fine, is cause it connects and lets me login, so shouldn't vgextreme? I have no software firewalls running just my router.

Wyvern is there any network changes that would allow exhume to connect and not vgextreme? And what ports does vgextreme use that I might be blocking it?

Lol sometimes you cant see the forest for all those darn trees.

The only reason you need to delete exhumehelper.dll is if you get a error message saying CLSID is missing. Thats it. Basically the new dll jsut needs to be registered. You can delete exhume.exe and forget about it. Create a batch file if you muust that has in it Regsvr32.dll ExhumeHelper.dll

and run it. It will register the dll.. thats all the exhume is doing. Hopefully admin will push the beta dll to the exhume patch engine and this will all go away.


If you run and get cannot be displayed, just close that window and restart VGE.

Ok thanks for clearing some of that up wyvern. But it seems there is another issue here. I've eliminated my router, eliminated all firewall issues. Now I even registered it using regsvr32 and got the popup saying its registered.

Next I can run vgextreme 20 times and I always get page cannot be found OR nothing pops up and it sits in device manager and eats up cpu.

Is there any log or debug that can be done so I can find out where it's not getting passed?
