i've got the seth bot working.. kinda.. for some reason when i get something on the hook, it never reels it in.. it just waits until i lose the catch.. any suggestions?

[tault_Tault Community]

For the Aeries bot, you do NOT have to attend it. Just simply turn off tell handling. At least, thats what I did <.< Then again, I don't do much unattended macroing. It's mainly so when I'm bored with FFXI, I can fish and play a game else wise and still get something on FFXI done.

ok, it says "Open AC tools" WTF is AC tools? i seem to remember it where i downloaded it...i have 3.2version................i can't get either that or 5.0 to work. This is rly annoying...ne1 help?

[tault_Tault Community]

Now there is a problem with installing AC Tools.....
I click "install" or the "Installactools.exe" file and it launches the installing program for about 1/2 a second, then shuts down....ne suggestions PLEASE?

That kind of sounds like something is conflicting with it. Maybe you don't have the resources for it and it just refuses to go farther? Er..hrm...I'm sorry, I can't help ; ; I'm running off 4 hours sleep and my brain refuses to work...I'm sorry

How do you unzip the file? Once I DL it it is in the Zip Archive, HOW do i unzip this file, thx.

[tault_Tault Community]

If you're running Windows XP, it should come with an unzipper. Just double click it, it'll open up the contents in a window. On the side bar, select "Extract Files" or something like that.

If that doesnt happen OR you're not running Windows XP, then go to Register to unlock hidden link and download Winzip trial version. Unzip it that way, it's pretty simple if you put it in Wizard mode. (Classic mode is a tad more confusing if youd on't know how to use it)

if you dont want to be inturupted using bot just type /away and no one can msg you!

[tault_Tault Community]

OR... you can just mute the /tell channel. If you're flagged as away, it looks more suspicious to the GMs. You're more likely to be caught using your script if you do that.

Anyone know how to get the files working? I am still having the quicktime problem with it trying to open the .mac files. What program should I have set to open them?

[tault_Tault Community]

Blah, this is kind of a rough-around-the-edges bot. I think ill wait for a new version to come out, let them clear bugs up and stuff.

[tault_Tault Community]

3. some delay for each function too fast. make bot skip or didn't do some function.
4. sometime it exit from fishing and don't do anything.
5. when bot use auto sort item. if bait is in the last list of your inventory. it make bot malfunction.
