Sicnarf 0 Report post Posted January 24, 2014 AS the title says. I can be okay for 24 hours then it freezes every 5 seconds, even on a fresh host restart. Anyone ever experienced that or knows a fix? Host Specs: Processor: Intel® Core i5-3570K CPU @ 3.40GHz (4 CPUs), ~3.8GHz Memory: 8192MB RAM Card 1 name: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 Card 2 name: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680 (Sli Enabled) SSD: Intel 530 Series 180GB SATA SSD HDD: 1TB Caviar Blue. VMWare Settings (Everything in the SSD): Memory 2048MB Processor Core: 2 35 GB Hard Drive (Path of Exile is installed in the Virtual Drive) Bandicam to limit framerate. POE Graphics looks like shit. OpenVPN as protection. And even when it works, I can only run one bot at a time, which is certainly abnormal for my computer spec... Let alone 3 bots.

stef 30 Report post Posted January 24, 2014 hm, the whole vmware freezes or only the os inside the vmware? might aswell post the exact vmware version. 7 i guess? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walt 178 Report post Posted January 24, 2014 (edited) try disabling your soundcard driver too.. go to start then type in device manager and look for the driver. Do this on the VM. create a shortcut of the launcher to your desktop and right click it put -swa -ns -gc 2 at the end of your pathway after the quotation marks.

Sicnarf 0 Report post Posted January 24, 2014 (edited) hm, the whole vmware freezes or only the os inside the vmware? might aswell post the exact vmware version. 7 i guess? Usually only the whole virtual machine (If I kill the right process, my other 2 VM starts to work again), however, sometimes the whole program appears to be freezed and my mouse can't leave the VM's resolution, meaning that I can't reach the taskbar on my host machine. I'm indeed using VMware 7 because of the flicking issue with VMware 10. try disabling your soundcard driver too.. go to start then type in device manager and look for the driver. Do this on the VM. create a shortcut of the launcher to your desktop and right click it put -swa -ns -gc 2 at the end of your pathway after the quotation marks. Will do that right now!

leeroy788 2 Report post Posted January 26, 2014 Having the same exact issue. I tried upgrading to vmware 10, but still had the same problem. I have done everything listed in this thread, disabling sound card, etc.. But still have this issue. Sometimes I can bot for 2 days without any problems, and then sometimes it will freeze 5 times within 5 minutes. Followed the exact steps provided in the "how to run 6 bots" thread.

Walt 178 Report post Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) Leeroy, try using the OS i provided in my VM thread instead. It could be an issue with the OS that masterpulllha suggested. A few people that use his guide have had come to this problem with me before. dont use -nosound tho its -ns ... also a quick qn...have you got vmware tools installed ? also dont use bdacam as its an overlay software and lmk how it goes.... i stated in the post -ns but for some reason typed -nosound for the pic demonstration, lol. fixed Edited January 27, 2014 by Walt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sicnarf 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2014 (edited) Did everything above and it worked for a few days... Now it's back again :S It doesn't freeze after 15 seconds but it does freeze after a random amount of time. When it occurs, I can see in my Task Manager that the VMWare's process only takes 5-6 MB of ram instead of the 1.5GB that it used to (Not talking about the software process, the Virtual Machine process). Occurs much faster if I try to run two VM at the same time. I don't get why I can't even run one VM properly with my Specs. I purchased 3 VPN, 3 License and have three character ready to bot. :S Could it be a problem with the fact that I have POE in each virtual drive? Should I really run it through a shared folder? Edit: Do you guys know if Exiled-Bot.net planned to release an official VMware client? By that I mean a zipped Virtual Machine in multiple parts that one could only download and run problem free? Edit2: Just in case, I run the OS you suggested in your Guide walt. Edited January 30, 2014 by Sicnarf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dasnon 1 Report post Posted February 25, 2014 its nvidia. fuck that graka. have the same problems and botting is such a pain. i didnt used vmware because it was not nesessary with WoW.... now all the shit is fucking up. i botted with 30+ accounts one week WoW, beeing in vacation and not clicking even one fucking click with my hand and now im not nearly get this automation grade because of my nvidia. i have the same pc rig as you (geforce gtx 660 ti). i could run 8 vmwares with bots. i think 7 very very stable, because of freezing shit it doesnt make sense to bot with nvidia. some people are saying that they fixed these bug. i tried a lot of tips from honorbuddy forum and it doesnt worked.
