lotroextreme uses offsets

Yes well, I understand that it uses offsets to read from memory, but does it write to memory to perform certain actions? Or does it use keypresses (for attacking or using special abilities for example)?

Basically - Could I minimize the main game window when the bot is running or could I chat in another window without having the game window in focus?

depends on the coder, but for safety reasons most coders only use extreme to read the memory, not edit it.

Aaaah, now I get it, that's why what "Tault_admin" and the FAQ seemed to contradict each other.

:lol:

The idea is commendable but VMware Server (Free) certainly does not support D3D and apps using DX9c.

For VMware Workstation (NOT free), DX8 apps are experimentally supported.

Never thought VMware would end up being mentioned on a LOTRO bots forum.

Yes, you noticed I did not mention the flagship VMware product?...
Just waiting for someone to do it so I can have a good laugh!

I made it so that it only uses passive memory reads. This is by far the safest way to program/bot a game. Since you are not changing anything in memory, they have nothing to detect in their own memoryspace.

Well... I have never tried to run a game inside VMWare (apart from Minesweeper) so it was just a suggestion I threw out. :)

What's the chances of an update real soon. Everything seems to be working fine for me on vista Premium. Just was wondering when the target MaxHealth and Mob MaxHealth might be added. Also is there a way to for you to add a getTargetMaxHealth(ID) ID Being the Spawn ID for the target. If so, how hard would it be to do that for TargetHealth.

Also, did you find out anything about isTargetAttaking(). Thanks! Keep up the great work.

I should have an update out soon. I have alot of things fixed since 0.91 was added.

As a side note, you can call LOTR.MobArray.GetMobFromID(ID).HP

Actually, I cant remember if I added that since I did 0.91. Like I said, I've made alot of changes that I need to get out.

Did the patch to LoTRO today break LOTROEX? When I start it, it just says it loaded the files. Scripts won't start. I have .NET 2.0, the script debugger from MS, and I've closed ATI Tray Tools.

Have you clicked on start script in the lotroe window?

ok finally got it to work
but how do i get the bot to work that will hunt for me and loot the mob for me too

the radar is nice but when i run it gives me massive lag

it did for the vanguard version, its something to do with the drawing of the radar on the screen, i dont think it can be helped, the only way to reduce the lag is to change the update or refresh timer of the radar thus giving you some relief from lag every now and then.

Also reducing your GFX settings will help as well and will increase frame rate, also make sure that LOTRO game is your primary window.

I am adding some caching of memory variables so that things like player name, mob names etc dont update every frame.. that will help some.
