  1. There's a reason the bot gets updates. The version you're using is old. Newest version is 0.18c with a 0.19 RC version.

    Reporting bugs for older versions is like... A waste? I could go report that version 0.01a does not work with maps lol.

     

    Test with the newest version, and come back and report the bugs if they're still there.


  2. If you want to show your worth, and maybe get on the good side with the developers, start by NOT asking for the source code of a non-open source project.

    After completing step 1, try programming something that would benefit the bot, or the community, release it for use.

     

    Basically, i'm sure that Alk wouldn't mind a helping hand, but you'd need to show what you can do, and this is before getting any source code whatsoever.

     

    Look through the bot, find stuff that could be improved, then code it in C++ as an MFC Application, and upload source code, and PM Alk about it.

    If he likes it, he may add you on Skype, and you can discuss further :)


  3. Since they would be reading an ever changing source, they would need to ask permission every single time they'd want to check.

    A lot of countries have different rules regarding this, and this is also why most if not all developers do not do this, at least for commercial uses.

    It's far too much trouble to regard every countries rules.

     

    If you ever wanna get into developing stuff for commercial use, you'd better read up on stuff :P - You'll hurt yourself if you don't xD


  4. Unfortunately, this is not entirely true. If they would explicitly mention it in their TOS, they would naturally have the right to scan the user memory. Of course, only if the player accepts their TOS but this is necessary to play the game ;)

     

    Maybe in their own country, but they'd be breaking my countrys rules even if its stated in their TOS.

    It would need to ask me "Would you like Path of Exile to perform a memory scan to look for malicious software?" Yes/No - Otherwise, they're not allowed, and they would be facing quite severe consequences.

     

    So, even if they put that in their TOS, no :P


  5. It's illegal to watch the memory of a computer without user's agreement.

    The only memory you have the right to look at is the one used by your program.

    Personal privacy law is not something trivial.

     

    This.

     

    If GGG was looking at memory, they'd be breaking about a dozen federal offenses, in their own country alone.

    Where i live, you're doomed if you do something like that, like.. literally.. the rest of your life will be lived on old bread and water :P


  6. Using a VPN isn't what gets you banned.

    GGG have on several occasions encouraged people to use VPN's to, for instance, be able to connect to the patching server, if your ISP is blocking stuff.

    I highly doubt that they would encourage people to use VPN's, and then just ban people who do.

     

    Also, VPN's are used by a lot of people who wish to be anonymous when browsing the web, chatting, playing games etc. So it's not a 100% bot flag that you're running a VPN.

     

    Now, running stuff in a VM on the other hand could potentially be dangerous, as you will always send certain info along with requests in game.

    What these information are, i do not know. But a lot of games collect information about graphics card, ram and CPU for statistics. If your VM is running something obvious, then they may flag you. - Again, i have no idea if they're collecting this information or not.

     

    As Alk said, limit your botting time. I've been running 12-16 hours a day for months without issues.

     

    Switching zones according to your level is good too. If you're more than 10 levels above the zone you're playing in (with exception of docks/lunaris/library/catacombs), then it gets suspicious. - Personally, i have a randomizer running that will perform anywhere from 1-5 runs in a speciffic zone, and then switch.

     

    When/if you're going to do zone switching, try to switch zones so that you won't end up in the same town every run. How the bot behaves in town can easily be spotted as botting, if you come back every 5-6 minutes after a run, and do the exact same thing over and over.

     

    Being active in trade chat is also good. I like to convert all my currency into exalts/chaos at the end of a botting session, and then drop transfer to my main/mule.

    I also buy items in trade chat, and interact.

     

    Playing manually once every few days helps too. Joining public groups, doing stuff for a few runs, then leave, go back to botting.

     

    Those are just some of the steps i take, and i have yet to be banned.


  7. We all know how it goes:

    You're botting, and you want to level the gems as you go, but suddenly, theres a gem that you can't level up due to lack of stats or level, which then blocks the rest of your skillgems from leveling up.

     

    This lil' thing SHOULD help with that, as it will reposition the mousecursor to match the first skillgem that CAN be leveled up.

     

    This is in beta, and will need some testing before i can fully code it to suit all needs.

     

    For now there are 2 major dependencies:

     

    1) You MUST have a skill in either of the 3 mouse keys

    2) You can not change the delay of the mouse positioning, so if you rely on auras (which will be cast before upgrading skillgems), this will not work.

     

    Configuration and stuff can come later, i'm interested in feedback on how it works on different setups.

     

    How to run it

     

    Launch your game, start EB, pause EB when in town, run the .exe file, and continue bot.

     

    There are a few kinks here and there, but it should all in all work.

    eb.gemfix.zip


  8. About the ignore unupgradable skill gems; i've been coding some stuff that i'll be testing when i get back home, that will shift the mousecursor from one skill gem upgrade position to the next, if you can't upgrade it.

     

    In theory it should work just fine, but i'll find out for sure when i get back home :)

     

    It could possibly be implemented into the bot if Alk finds it useful.


  9. I've been doing leapslammers for quite a while.

    I've recently begun testing low budget facebreaker builds, and they are actually more powerful than leapslammers on a budget.

     

    So far it seems that facebreaker builds have more survivability, since they're using a shield, clear speed is about the same, if not a little bit faster when you're not counting the desyncs that often happens from leapslam.

     

    Leapslam builds require a somewhat powerful 2 hander, which can get "expensive" in a low budget build.

    Facebreaker builds can be put together for around 10 chaos or less, depending on what items you already have.

     

    During my testing with a tabula rasa on, i also realised that running facebreaker with infernal blow was quite tanky. Running IB, Melee Splash, Multistrike, LGoH was enough to carry me through merciless without ever having trouble, and (almost) never had to drop a pot. Adding Faster Attacks on a 5 link makes everything even more OP.

     

    So yeah, a few things to think about :)
