Fishing Bot (Filefront World of Warcraft)

Features
- Bobber scanning has test results of 95%+ accuracy with great speed
- Fish scanning has test results of 70%+ accuracy
- Easy-to-change constants for tweaking
- Supports any resolution (yes, even non-standard ones like really stretched out)
- Supports CosmosUI
- Dynamic RGB color finding (works in practically any light)
- AFK-Away

Use
1. Copy/Paste the code below into AC Tool (found at http://www.actool.net
2. Run WoW in Windowed Mode
3. Put fishing skill in slot '0'
5. Under Video Options (press Escape to bring up main menu), UNCHECK 'Hardware Cursor'
6. Zoom into 1st person mode
7. Review constants in script, particularly 'runCount' to set how many times the script should run
8. Run the macro

Notes
- For best results, try turning all fancy graphics options off (especially 'Terrain Highlights' under Shaders.. takes all the brightness out of the water) and use a low resolution (perhaps under 800×600, the smaller the faster)
- If you are having problems finding the bobber, where the mouse simply goes over the bobber and never stops, or goes a little bit past the bobber before stopping, try increasing the 'scanSpeed' constant. Do this only after turning off all fancy graphics and decreasing resolution
- Please please please fish AWAY FROM CIVILIZATION. We need as little publicity as possible, thankyouverymuch.
- Try to find a spot where you are level with the water. Run the script once or twice and note the highest line where the script scans for the bobber. Then throw 15 or so casts manually and note where the highest cast goes. Try to match those two lines up, you will get much faster results.
- If the bobber is landing outside of the scan area, adject the scan area percentage constants in the macro to include the areas where the bobber lands.
- You can turn off AFK Away if you want to chat while fishing

Future
- The fish scanner isnt the best right now, will definitely need tweaking. I'll try to get that working better in a future update.
- An inventory management system to automatically open up containers such as clams, bottles, chests, etc.
- An option to quit fishing after a set amount of time
- An option to turn on random timings between casts/clicking of the fish/etc

Comments on Fishing Bot (Filefront World of Warcraft) »

John @ 5:37 am

Love the bot. Wondering if it would be possible to add a line to add a lure every 20 casts or so. I could probably do it myself, but I don't know the language you're writing in. It doesn't seem to understand the modulus operator (%) that you'd use in Java or C++. Great work.

John @ 7:31 am

I've figured out how to attach a lure. Turns out you get almost 30 casts out of each lure, so I'm using 30 as the loop number. This may be a rather ghetto way of handling this, but this is my first time working with this language. If you have a better way of doing it, I'd love to see it.

I changed your Misc Variable to include a new one:

// Misc vars
x = 0
y = 0
i = 0
j = 0
lureCount = 0

And then inserted this chunk of code just before your AKF Away code:

Compute lureCount = {LoopNo} MOD 30

If $lureCount = 0
Delay 2500
KeyDown {RETURN} 250
KeyDown /use 100
KeyDown {SPACE} 100
KeyDown Bright 100
KeyDown {SPACE} 100
KeyDown Baubles 100
KeyDown {RETURN} 250
KeyDown {RETURN} 250
KeyDown /use 100
KeyDown {SPACE} 100
KeyDown Nat 100
KeyDown {SPACE} 100
KeyDown Pagle's 100
KeyDown {SPACE} 100
KeyDown Extreme 100
KeyDown {SPACE} 100
KeyDown Angler 100
KeyDown {SPACE} 100
KeyDown FC-50 100
KeyDown 0 100
KeyDown 0 100
KeyDown {RETURN} 250
Delay 2500
Else
Delay 2500
End

Of course, this will only work to attach bright baubles to Nat Pagle's Extreme Angler FC-5000, but it shouldn't be too hard for people to change it to meet their own needs.

I'd still like to see some random delay times thrown in there though, since a consistent delay pattern is one of the things that gives BOTs away the easiest.

Thank you for all your work.

skin @ 8:46 pm

it works like 10% of the time for me

March 3, 2008

Bill @ 1:44 pm

Is there some way to loot the fish as well? I can get the mouse to stop on the bobber and catch the fish but it won't loot it automatically which ends up with the fish being discarded…so sad : (

Bill @ 2:38 pm

Figured that part out, in the interface options you need to set it so that no key is required to auto loot (default its shift)
Also, to include a random delay so it doesnt appear so bot-like I changed the bottom part under "main proc" I seems like it makes a delay upon casting while your not logged as afk (i dont know code I just copied it from another forum about delay times) let me know what you think
