SkBot v1.70 Update 08/08/2009

anyone else skbot having issues casting?
 
Make sure you are loading the INI you think you are loading. You could've accidentally named your INI skBotSettings.ini.txt for example if you edited in notepad, and if you did that it will not load it. So the one it actually loads is blank and would not cast any spells.

If you want to post a copy of your log file I can tell you for sure if you are doing something like that or not, as it will output what is being loaded from the INI at the beginning of the log.

Log file is in mq2folder/logs/skbot.mac.log

skbot.mac Log

Yeah it didnt load any combat spells, indicating most likely your ini is not named correctly.

You appear tobe running /mac skbot tank, so your ini must be named skbotsettings_tank.ini
 
kk, i'll doubled checked

I checked again, and it was named right, but for some reason it wasn't saved as a config setting, it was just saved as as notepad document, so its works now, and works pretty well. 1 question, how do you add aoe taunt to spell list?

It seems like it uses the spells 1-6 1 first, 2 second 3, 3rd in that order afther the 10 second cool down. would it use AoE taunt proplerly apon adds if i added it as a spell in the INI? and if it was like 1 second, thru the 10 second cool down, would it take it 9 more seconds to use it?

I'm not really sure what you mean with the times and such, but it will uses spells in order of the list for the most part. SkBot is a little special in the fact that it will cast aggro type spells first (if tanking), the lifetap type spells then dps spells. In that order of spell types it will cast the first one it comes to that meets all conditions to cast.

You can put an AOE aggro ability / spell in there just keep in mind the spell casting order.

SpellRecast specifies how often it should be able to cast the spell assuming nothing before it is ready to cast.
 
wont work

i keep trying to get this macro to work, but it keeps saying that it cant open, along with a few other plugins that im trying out, like the auto casting one, anybody know how to make this one work? simple please, im new to this, its downloading the SKBOT as a RAR format and i have no way to convert it :mad:

rar is an archive. Use 7-zip or winrar to open the archive and extract the files. Then make a copy of the ini and update for your character. Or just run the macro once in game and then end it and modify the ini it creates.
 
looting

where do i go to change the loot settings? mine will not auto loot, i've looked for the regular settings to change it there, but all i see is the skbotsetting_example

Would you care to add some details to that statement?

I haven't updated this macro since late 2009, as the title says (I no longer update this one as I spend my time on my premium bots now). But I don't know of anything that would prevent it from casting off the top of my head.

Are you getting any error messages? Did you configure the INI for your spells? What IS it doing?
 
i'll post the log file and maby you can tell me what ya think...any help would be great.. premium bots? ? sounds interesting :)

According to that log, the INI named skBotSettings_dephex.ini is empty.

Either you have your INI named incorrectly, or you didn't configure it.
 
I saved it in notepad..I think its saved as a text doc.
 
I'm not sure whats going on..I think i should give up on this one...If you have a premium bot for sk i would be interested...
