Welcome to the board

To all new members, welcome to the forum. If you have any questions about scripting or ffxi game hacking, please post!

Also, if you are comming from the RPG expert ffxi scripting forum, let me know who you are.

Me? I'm that one guy from the place... Ya I posted that stuff reguarding, well you know...

- Let's hear it for forum migration.

Good to have you here. I upgraded your status to global admin. You may nuke trolls on sight

Greetings. Although I suppose you could say I come from the RPG expert ffxi scripting forum, I don't believe I ever posted there. I guess I just did more reading and learning than begging and whining ;D

I consider myself a proficient coder, having used C++, Java, Perl, and the like for several years now. I'm still kind of new to this particular scripting, but I have written a few simple scripts that have worked out pretty well. It's kind of sad, but I've almost had more fun writing scripts and getting them to work than I've had actually playing the game.

Anyway, as I continue to learn, I hope I can be of some benefit.

Peace.

What makes this particular hobby fun is trying to find really off the wall ways of doing things. I've never atually used a bot more than a few times in FFXI, but I still find scripting to be full of really cool problems to solve. Its always good to have more experianced coders around. Who knows, maybe once this board really gets going we can cook something up that will give the japanese NM campers a run for thier money.

Welcome to the boards.

I think I'm with RiverRat...I came from the other forum but I never actually posted there. I got tired of flame topics on that other forum, so I came here to seek expert help on how to script ^^ Currently I'm taking a class in C++, so I think this stuff will help ;D

[TinyTerror]

Welcome to the forum. C++ is my favorite language. I've been coding in it for close to 7 years now, and would be more than happy to answer questions about it even if they arent related to FFXI. C++ is a good language to know if you want to learn AutoIT REALLY fast. It took me something like an hour to learn AutoIT because of its strong similarities to good old C.

hello!
glad to find a new forums where we can code in peace (hopefully)

I had been working on a PL bot, which i got working but havent used >< , but i'll probably never release it as it was pretty complicated. I might however convert it to a "remote control" bot, (where you /tell and it responds with macros, etc.)

I am working on another project as well but we'll see if it takes off

[TinyTerror]

I'll do whatever I can to keep this place from being flooded by goons. Good to have you on the board. I'd be interested in seeing your PL bot, but thats up to you. Welcome to the board!

[jimmyjanks]

I'm Jimmy Janks, and I'm looking forward to helping keep this place clean of riffraff . Hopefully the atmosphere on this forum will be nice enough that I can share some of my scripts here and get some constructive feedback. I have a rather advanced fishing script working, but I would never post it on RPGEx because of all of the "OMG HOW DO I GET IT TO WORK?! U SUX" posts. Glad to see all of the intelligent faces here from the RPG expert forums. *bow*

Sup guys, i came from rpg expert where i read the posts from tinyterror. I have FFXI and wish to know how to make "bots" and how to script using AutoIT v3. I'm really new to this and i don't know how to set up a script, but hey we all have to start somewhere. I hope i can get some help from you guys, and this site seems to be doing well. ;D

[DarkAquaus]

Nice forum setup Tiny. >.>

As you have geussed Im from the exboards.

I started work on converting my pix macro to checksums

I have it setup currently to get any new checksum it doesnt have built in and dumps it to a file and it also takes a pic using fraps lol
but it only does this on fish and items it fishes up so u get the checksums for each item say u get a fish thats just annoying well its toast
etc but it will only autosort on the fish u want and that are hard coded to it I left some of the getpix in it but its almost went to a complete overhaul ._. lol if you think my script is worthy of this forum I'll be more than glad start a thread >.>

Btw I love the idea of FFACT but I am more worried on losing my higher job char since thats were my fishing lvl is plus I'm not sure if it is true or not but ive heard a rummor that SE has somesort of code built-in to look for FFACT like programs that poke at its memmory space as I said I refrain from messing with it until I am 100% sure it is a safe method of 100% botting lol

[TinyTerror]

Whatever SE does, im sure the FFACT people will be aware of it. They have a pretty large user base, and should be able to detect problems.
