This is GREAT, Mind if I help a little? When you feel it's complete we can include it as setup.txt and put it in the archive for 3.13, yes? Put your credits at the top of the file.
[quote="redman";p="66507"]Harvester 3.12 Setup Instructions!
Firstly, this assumes the following:
- Your viewpoint is set to avatar centric (Options->Controls->View Options->Free Look Controls)and Zoomed out, and up some
[/quote]
viewpoint in EQ2 (yea, I know, but trust me these have to be as simple as humanly possible ).
[quote="redman";p="66507"]
- You HAVE successfully got mouse demo to do it's thing. If that doesn't work, dont waste your time fighting with this until you have that much working first. Your problems are NOT related to this script if you cant get mouse demo to work.
- Your keys are set up just like mine are
If they are not, then you will have to adapt the instructions.
- You have logging turned on. Actually to get this script to work, once you turn it on, you have to restart EQ so that the log file is where this script expects it to be due to an EQ bug that hopefully gets fixed some day. I'd rather this was handled like it is in the hunter bot but thats another argument. Turn logging on by typing /log the first time.

I noticed that hunter bot did something with the log but didn't pay much attention. Is it not just type /log once and the job is done? What does hunterbot do?
[quote="redman";p="66507"]
Steps:
- Download the rar file and extract it into the scripts folder. You should have HarvestBot_v312.ini, HarvestBot_v312.vbs, and ding.wav in your scripts folder as well as a subfolder called EQ2HarvestBot containing 9 more files.

Consider offering the web site for the rar extractor?
[quote="redman";p="66507"]
- Open HarvestBot_v312.ini and change the following keys to these values:
[Harvester]
; Required as the author uses this change to FORCE you to edit your ini.
DeleteMe = False
; Change to not use hotbar/hotkeys for harvests. It simplifies configuration and doesnt waste a hotbar.
; Later, once you have this thing rolling some feel that it is "safer" to use a hotbar here. I don't.
[/quote]
I think I may have found one advantage to hotbars, I notice that my hotbar queue's the commands, I should switch to non hotbar but have the hotbar display and see if the button flashes when using /useability as well. If not there is an advantage to using the hotbar.
[quote="redman";p="66507"]
Hotbar = 0
; I used the default path for EQ2
EQ2Path = c:\program files\sony\Everquest II\
[KeyConfig]
; NUMLOCK is my AUTORUN forward key.
Forward = {NUMLOCK}
; I have the standard default WASD keys still mapped. Dont use them but havent changed them.
Backward = S
Left = A
Right = D
;The rest of the default movement keys are fine for me.
[Resources]
; Change what you want here, I'm not interested in harvesting everything but the default
; now appears to be to harvest all which is nice and clean and a good starting setting.
; Mess with this section AFTER you have everything else working
[quote="redman";p="66507"]
One reason to consider turning all harvesting on is that when you harvest all nodes in an area they tend to pop quicker and in different patterns, also if say you don't harvest half the nodes, when you come back only the half you harvested have the possibility of having repoped as something you want.
[/quote]
; CHANGE this to be your charname.
[Johnydoe] <--- MUST change
; I put zero buffs here, I harvest where everything is grey and dont have speed buffs so this is not a usefull feature to me.
Numofbuffs = 0
[/quote]
If you aren't going to use buffs you can safely ignore that section, if the section [yourcharname] does not exist then no buffs will be used. Editing does no harm but no good either.
[quote="redman";p="66507"]
Leave everything else as defaults NOTE, there are lots of new settings, at least since the last version I used, 3.0 so start fresh from the 3.12 sample.
- Now start the game, go to a nice safe zone like commonlands, get near some resources and give this a try. If you are going to try it in antonica, change [Antonica]->UseWayPoints=false so that it doesn't try to use the path.
- Once you have this much working you can start the fine tuning...
- set up your harves priorities
- set up some harvesting paths
- set up a hotbar if you want
- set up buffs
- mess with pet stuff
Cheers,
RedMan[/quote]
The priorities need not be changed if ClosestFirst is true
This is excellent, I look forward to including it in the next release. Thanks RedMan!
