As the previous thread has become more or less irrelevant, and is misleadingly described, I am starting this thread to provide support for FnB3TR1.2.xxx versions from TR1.2.526 and later.

Although I will take and respond to technical-assistance questions in this forum, responses will be quicker on the official support site. Please do not cross-post either Q&A, or copies of this macro, to any other boards, and trust no copies which do not come directly from there. No permission is granted to re-distribute this macro except by linking to the official posting on the FnB site.
Please Note: Although the "Official" Fluff'n'Buff website is not up, the Support Forums are. Feel free to visit them at http://www.fluffnbuff.ca/Forums

December 5:NEW!
The FnB3 server seems to be up and running, although it is difficult to tell when you're on the same network, if servers you can see can also be seen by people from other nets. Nevertheless, TR1.2.712 has been posted on the FnB3 website. If you are unable to reach the site, please let me know. This version has several minor fixes and also incorporates the new ACTools' commands. You need at least ACTools v4.4.16 beta 5 to run this version.

(October 18):
Some people have reported difficulties reaching my server. Although I am unsure as to the cause of this, I am posting the latest FnB3 release here again until I figure out what the problem is.

(October 11):
Fairly major update to FnB3 released: TR1.2.584. I have incorporated most of the Includes into the main ".mac" file. There are about 1/3 as many includes now, which dramatically reduces load-time when the bot is started. I have also made changes that incorporate Turbine's changes to the AC Client in the September '03 patch. That is to say, FnB3 now buffs whatever weapon is in the hand of the player it is buffing. It no-longer uses stored weapon Id's! This makes is much easier for players to have multiple weapons buffed (by simply issuing "buff weapon" commands and changing weilded weapons) without having to "define" them first. Also, although it is still in testing, the bot SHOULD be able to buff users' armour while they are wearing it. I would appreciate any feedback anyone has to offer on this in the way of bugs or known issues before I declare it to be a sound feature, but the few tests I have performed seem to indicate that it will work. The HTML help file has also been editted and updated to reflect the current state of the code, you should be sure to reconcile any old version of it that you may have posted with this new one. Enjoy!

(September 2):
Released the full distribution of the current version (TR1.2.532). Some small changes implemented from .526 but mostly it's just the complete FnB3 distribution archive.

(August 31):
Released updated TR1.2.526. Primary changes are mostly bug-fixes and minor tweaks. Error handling is more complete and the bot should recover from most errors that it generates (if any). Error data is saved to a CDS file that can be read at any time even with the bot in operation. The armour tinkering plugin is incorporated into this release. To disable it, remove the applicable include line from the FnB3TR1.2.526.mac (around line 108) and remove the "tinker" command from the FnB3.Commands.cds file.

I am a bit confused. The FnB macro list a bunch included scripts. Where can I get them?

Thanks

You posted a .mac file Is there suppost to be a zip or jsut the mac?

Heh -- obviously FnB3 is more than just the one mac file. The complete (up-to-date) distribution is posted now, thanks for the pointer, I dunno how many times I've looked at that page in the past few days and never saw that problem.

-Triane

ok running decal 2.5.01 actool 4.4.15 tr1.2.532 and getting this error
SENDTEXT - 15, 03/09/
SAYPASTE - Internal FnB3 Error Trapped! -- I am shutting down and restarting. I apologise for any inconvenience!
also says error:macro line:
file rewrite statfile
caused error:invalid filename
module:fnb3.setup.inc line 735


any ideas on this?

I'm just guessing, but I'd say you've not defined your paths correctly in FnB3.Constants.Public.mac -- check to make sure that the paths you've defined there are correct AND end with a backslash character ("/").

-Triane

ok checked that and they have \'s at end is it suppose to be a /?
this is last thing it does b4 getting error
<AcT> Retrieved 2 Users from the data file. (C:\Program Files\AC Tool\FnB3\Data\FnB3.UserData.cds)
<AcT> 03/09/

In Windows they'd be "\"s, not "/"s, pardon my linux

What are the contents of your FnB3.Errors.cds file?

-Triane

have a few actually
Macro Line: FileReset TextFileCopy caused error file not found
Macro Line: FileRewrite StatFile caused error invalid filename
Could not find constant StatFile
Macro Line: SetConst 1342762041 = _selectedGUID caused error 'kenny' is not a valid integer value for field 'GUID'
that's all i see in there for now

While I appreciate your attempt to convey the error data, there's not enough information in JUST those messages to track down the source of them. Please post the error file so I can have a look at it. In the meantime, the errors seem to be related to filenames/paths, so check to ensure that you have correctly defined these values in FnB3.Constants.Public.mac:

// File Names used by FnB3+ (these shouldn't need to be changed and must NOT contain any path or wildcard characters!)

UserFileName = FnB3.UserData.cds // stored user information
StatisticsFile = FnB3.Statistics.txt // stored FnB statistics

// File Paths used by FnB3+
// IMPORTANT NOTE: These paths MUST exist PRIOR to running this macro AND they MUST terminate with a back-slash character! I do not
// recommend that you keep the default values, customize them to your specific installation!

FnBDataPath = C:\Program Files\AC Tool\FnB3\Data\ // Place to find/store our data.
FnBLogFilePath = C:\Program Files\AC Tool\FnB3\Logs\ // Place to store our logs.
FnBMacroPath = C:\Program Files\AC Tool\Macros\ // Path where FnB3 macro files are stored.

OK got past that error. Now getting one about Accepted Items.

Error: Could not find List AcceptedItems defined!
Module: FnB3.Constants.Public.mac Line: 315

Everything listed in the Accepted Items sections should be correct as I haven't made any changes to that. Thanks for all the help.

In FnB3.Setup.inc find the following:

Ok. Changed those...closed AC Tool and restarted it. Everything works great now. Thanks alot for the prompt and friendly help. Have a wonderful Sunday.

Hiya,

Well, I've been trying to get this bot to run, from what I hear it's a great buff bot, very reliable.. I'm having some problems. My path names are correct and I followed your installation directions exactly, I'm running AC Tool 4.4.15, decal 2.5.0.1 final.. Here is what I see in the game. I start up everything loads fine until I get here... then I begin to loop, the bot restarts each time at this step..

This is quoted from the other, older FnB3 thread (here). This bug is QUITE common for whatever reason, but I'm unsure of why it occurs.

Awesome, it worked. I set Use Universal Constants and she's up and running! Woot! Thank You! Very fast bot, I luv it!

Also, am I right in assuming the packslots are listed backwards? 1 being first main backpack, and then 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, and 2? It just seems that she is trying to target her comp pack which I set to pack 7 but she actually targets the foci I have 3rd slot down including the main pack 1. If this is the case, should this info be in your writeup?

hehe, I prolly overlooked something in your writeup, I will try moving my packs around and see.

Thanks again!

The PackSlots assignments are sequential, from 1 (main) to 8 (last/bottom)... if this is not happening correctly, ensure you're using the correct "Use Universal Constants" setting (either the one WITH StretchUI, if yours is stretched, or without it if it's not).

-Triane

Thanks! The Bot is up and running smoothly now.

Np, glad to hear it's doing it's job!

-Triane

*bump*

How hard would it be to scab this macro (scrounged from the CastAway forums and written by Sweetleaf) into FnB? It relogs into AC when the AC client drops to desktop. There was another one there as well that worked with the dual client installed. You can view the thread here.

I like FnB but I hate that damned trade window cash to desktop bug.

Hehe -- it drives me crazy too.. I wish there was some explanation for why this happens to ACT macros far more frequently than InsaneBot or TradeBot plugins...

I'll have a look at the code and see if there's something that can be done...

-Triane

Am attempting to work out a new method for performing logins, will see how it pans out. In the meantime, TR1.2.584 has been released thismorning, details (and a link to the official FnB support forums) are at the top of the thread.

-Triane

Due to problems some people have been experiencing with reaching the FnB3 website (Forums), I posted a copy of the current release at the top of this thread. Once again, FnB3 can be downloaded from here.

-Triane

There are two loyalty spells defined in the settings I have TR1.2.584, fresh install.

Hehe -- that's an old leftover from Ican's code. Some of that stuff has been hanging around since I started adapting FnB2 and was never expunged. I did a quick search through the macro, and I don't think "LoyaltyOther" is ever referenced except in that one case. There's an updated version I haven't posted yet that includes a few updates from Ipa's recent ACTool modifications. I'll yank the "LoyaltyOther" variable before I post it. Thanks for the note!

-Triane

Found the bug:

I've got a problem.

The klunker put out the following errors when I issued the command 'help'.

Macro Line: DSIndex Users, Names||||Caused Error: Index 'Names' not found
Proc: SelectUser $WhoSaid
FnB3.TR1.2.584.mac
User Human Shield //<- the bot

Macro Line: FileRewrite StatFile||||Caused Error: Invalid filename
Proc WriteStatFile
FnB3.Setup.inc

Some background info...

I'm at work, so I can't do too much poking around, however I wonder, given the age of your old PC, if long-filename operations might cause an issue? If it's not Fat32, you might need to change the path/filename's to 8.3 format. This seems an unlikely situation, but it's one possiblity...

-Triane

It's on NTFS, but I didn't think of that. It's wierd that I can run the same code on my PC without problems (same config and character)..also I posted about the MousePos issues on Pg2.

Ahk

NTFS shouldn't have any trouble at all with the filenames... In all honesty, I would have been kind of surprised if it HAD turned out to be the problem, but I thought I'd throw it out there as a possibility...

I caught the issue about MousePos, but as I'm at work, I can't look into it. I had investigated the order of the assignments before and was sure that the SetUI code was called first, but I'll know better when I get home and can look at it directly. (It's been a while since I've done much FnB work as interest had died off lately).

-Triane

Hehehe -- well, you were right on, I don't know how that's slipped by (especially given how many times I've looked at that), but sure enough, SetUI was called well after those variables were defined. Needless to say, I've corrected it now.

Will hopefully get the current version of this out this weekend. nothing new in it per se, but some bug-fixes, and the adaptations for some of Ipa's new commands. Oh, and I also looked at the code that discerns when buffs run out (prompted by your earlier comment in regards to it) and I think I located and (hopefully) fixed a bug that caused it to never give the warnings.

-Triane

Okies, I posted the current version. It needs some playtesting time though, I haven't had much opportunity to run it of late. It's on the FnB3 website at http://www.fluffnbuff.ca/forums.

If you experience problems reaching the website, please post here and let me know!
