WoW Forever Bots 0.1.26

WoW Forever Bots 0.1.26
A free, one-click repack for the WoW Forever client with playerbots built in. Play solo, run dungeons and raids with bots, or have friends join your server.

Download: https://github.com/Karrz1/Karrz-playerbots-wow-forever/releases
Discord (help, news, bug reports): https://discord.gg/QJBM6tR3E4

What you get

• One-click setup. Unzip into a folder without spaces (for example C:\WoWForever) and run WoWForeverLauncher.exe. It installs the server, makes your account (the first one is GM) and starts everything. Updates are one button in the launcher.
• Bots in your group. Quick party fills your group with geared bots at your level. They follow you and quest with you; healers heal, the tank holds aggro, everyone joins the fight.
• Dungeons. Pick a dungeon in the add-on's Group finder tab; bots fill the missing tank, healer and damage places and you are taken to the door. Bot groups also show up in the in-game Group Finder.
• Raids. Quick party fills 20 and 40-man raids, with a Raid ready button. Molten Core and Onyxia clear with bots in our tests; Blackwing Lair is in progress and the later raids are still being tested.
• A living world. World bots quest, grind and travel in every zone, trade with you, buy on the auction house and fill battlegrounds.
• Play with friends, no router setup (new in 0.1.26). Press Host for friends, send the join code, and your friend pastes it in their launcher.
• English and Russian. The launcher, the ForeverBots add-on and quest text.
• Bring your own alts along as bots, control everything from the /fb window, and keep your own server settings across updates.

Good to know

• Free. No donations, no shop, no paid extras.
• No Blizzard files in the download. You need the WoW Forever client from Battle.net; the first install builds bot pathing from your own game files (about 10 to 20 minutes, once).
• Accepts client builds 70685, 70658, 70634, 70630 and 70532.
• Windows. Full source code is in every release under GPL v2, with SHA256 checksums.
• It is a work in progress. Bugs go to #bug-report on the Discord and get looked at.

WoW Forever Bots 0.1.28 released

Hi all, Karrz here. 0.1.28 is a big one: a new look for the launcher, a lot of quest fixes, and smarter bots in dungeons and raids.

Download: https://github.com/Karrz1/Karrz-playerbots-wow-forever/releases/tag/v0.1.28
Discord (help, news, bug reports): https://discord.gg/QJBM6tR3E4

Client: works with builds 70707 and 70685, and the older builds in client-builds.txt keep working.
Update: press Update in the launcher, then close and reopen the launcher once it says it was updated. New install: unzip WoW-Forever-Bots-0.1.28.zip into a folder without spaces (for example C:\WoWForever) and open WoWForeverLauncher.exe. The bot pathing is built from your own client on the first install; no game files are in the download.
Login: your account name as name@local (with the @local part) and the password from the secrets folder, or an account made with Create account.

What's new

Launcher

• Bigger window, sharp on 4K screens, Segoe UI lettering, blue by default.
• New Realm type window: Normal, PvP, RP, RP-PvP or FFA PvP.
• The Bots window has plain lines (Reserve, ActiveCap, PerZone, InCity), and one choice sets the settings file the server really uses.
• Fixed a manifest mistake that could stop Windows from starting the launcher.

Bots

• Dungeons and raids: the tank pulls with line of sight in mind, the group waits at the return point while the tank pulls back, and a boss they can't attack is no longer treated as the next pull. In Dire Maul they take the wing the group is in.
• Bots that fall more than 15 seconds out of range are brought back to you.
• Shaman bots put down air and fire totems, not only Healing Stream.
• Hunter bots read the Tranquilizing Shot book at 60.
• The auction house buyer buys player stacks and buyouts instead of bidding.
• Hired bots have settings for gear, health and what each broker sells, and hire brokers show their talk option.
• World bots no longer invite players walking past into a group.

Quests and world

• Zephras Isle: the Al'Aketh Skypriests and Honor Guards at the Shrine of Akir move and fight, Fillion Flamebreeze can be carried to safety, the Mark of Akir can be won back, Resaan's Heirloom can be retrieved for The Fate of a Loved One, and Vayn Moongaze sells his reputation items.
• Working again: Among the Faithful, The Affray, The Defias Brotherhood, Shiny Junk, Lost in Battle, Finding Warmth (the Fallen Logs are back) and the note you found.
• Nine quest-starting items that could never drop now drop.
• Warrior trainers Seena Skybreaker, Corsan Earthrazer and Blademaster Ren train.
• Missing creature and object spawns are back.

Game rules

• Comprehend Scroll deciphers the first untranslated scroll in your bags.
• Honor counts as the Honor currency, so the PvP quartermasters work.
• Victory Rush works after a kill, damage and heals over time can crit, and joining an arena works on the 1.60 client.
• Talents are no longer reset when you gain a level below 10 with no point spent.
• Camp buffs no longer stack with their class buff.
• Several server crashes fixed.

Thanks
Thanks to Lauris (LatvjuAvs/TrinityCore) and Trixx34 for fixes I ported, Phil Bennett (pbennett26/forever_docker), Duy Hoang (dqhoang), the Azeroth project (Sakhwoow/WoWForever), Tornn for the Russian text, advocaite for the WoW Forever TrinityCore server this is built on, and VMaNGOS for the vanilla data.

If something breaks, post here or on the Discord with what you did and a screenshot, and I'll look at it.

Hi all, Karrz here. 0.1.30.1 is out. It covers the big 0.1.30 update and the hotfix after it, and it's a good time to show what the repack can do now.

Download: https://github.com/Karrz1/Karrz-playerbots-wow-forever/releases/tag/v0.1.30.1
Discord (help, news, bug reports): https://discord.gg/QJBM6tR3E4
Client builds: 70790, 70755, 70707 and the older ones in client-builds.txt. No game files are in the download: you use your own WoW Forever client.

What you get

Your own bots, from one window

• Type /fb to open the ForeverBots window (add-on 0.6.17). One click on a role icon adds a tank, healer or damage bot of any class, already geared for your level.
• Stances for your bots: Passive, Defensive or Aggressive, plus an Ignore target button.
• Bots are free again: no hiring needed. If you liked the hired bots from the broker NPCs, they're still there with one setting.

Raid positioning

• Place your bots with the mouse: click a bot in the Positions tab, hover over the spot on the ground, and press to set it. The bot goes there and holds it until you press Follow.
• Or put a whole selection into a formation (spear, circle, line and more) at a spot or on your target.
• Tanks and Heals boxes, a pick by raid group and a Set button, so you can place your raid group by group.

Tanks, healers and damage

• Tanks pull with line of sight in mind, the group waits at the return point while the tank pulls back, and in dungeons the tank only pushes to the boss it is on.
• Healers keep everyone up and drink between pulls. Melee waits for the tank.
• Hunter and Arms Warrior bots hit harder in 0.1.30, mage bots use their procs, and shaman bots put down their air and fire totems.

Dungeons and raids

• Take a full bot party or raid into dungeons and raids. Dungeon finders fill the missing roles for you.
• Bots step out of trap zones, stop casting at immune or airborne targets, and fight back when a mob hits them.

A living world

• World bots quest, grind and travel in every zone, and help a player who is losing a fight.
• World PvP: on PvP and free-for-all realms some world bots are flagged and some start fights, never in the home zones or capitals.
• Battlegrounds fill both teams with bots that play the objective.
• Pick how busy the world is with the Bots size in the launcher: Off, Low, Normal or High.

Launcher

• One launcher for everything: install, start and stop the server, update with one click, create accounts, and play.
• Choose your realm type: Normal, PvP, RP, RP-PvP or FFA PvP.
• Host for friends: friends join with a code, no router setup.

Russian support

• Launcher and add-on in Russian, Russian quest text, and Russian names for more than 1,100 NPCs in 0.1.30.

New in 0.1.30 and 0.1.30.1

• About 100 quests, 2,600 NPC spawns, 900 objects and many drops and vendors that fresh installs were missing are back, so quest chains no longer stop early in the starting zones.
• Client 70790: the ghost login crash is fixed, mail works (it sends Name-Realm), and the earned-achievement line shows its name.
• Hunter pets: a revived pet keeps its happiness, hunters get Revive Pet, Feed Pet and Dismiss Pet, and a pet that falls out of sight is set down next to you.
• Lots of quest, trainer, spell and talent fixes: Overpower after a dodge, rogue poison charges, the legacy perks, the Darkmoon Faire on its schedule, the Dragons of Nightmare, and 13 old-world graveyards back in their vanilla places.
• Your settings file (zz-9-local.conf) gets every new setting after an update and keeps your own values.

Full list in the release notes on the download page.

Update or install
Update: press Update in the launcher, then close it and open it again.
New install: download WoW-Forever-Bots-0.1.30.1.zip, unzip it into a folder whose path has no spaces (for example C:\WoWForever), and double-click Install.cmd. The first install builds the bot pathing from your own game files and takes a while. Log in with your account name written as name@local and the password from the secrets folder, or with the account made by Create account.

Play the repack on a separate copy of the game, not on the client you use for the official servers. Bugs and questions: our Discord (bug-report and install-help). The source code is on the download page (GPL v2).

Karrz

Hi all, Karrz here. 0.1.31 is out. Shaman totems work, older mounts work on client 70790, the guild kick crash is gone, quest items reach your bags, and auction house prices are closer to vanilla. Here's everything that changed and why.

Download: https://github.com/Karrz1/Karrz-playerbots-wow-forever/releases/tag/v0.1.31
Discord (help, news, bug reports): https://discord.gg/QJBM6tR3E4
Client builds: 70790, 70755, 70707 and the older ones in client-builds.txt. No game files are in the download: you use your own WoW Forever client.

What changed in 0.1.31

Guilds on client 70790

• Kicking a member crashed the game. The new client expects a surname after each name in that message and we didn't send one, so it read past the end. Fixed and tested in game.
• The new guild leader message had the same fault and got the same fix.
• Invite Member in the guild window did nothing. The client sends it under a different number than we thought, so it got read as a party invite reply. We swapped the two numbers.
• Guild charters: Request Signature went to the wrong message, so bots never saw the offer. They sign now.
• Whisper a bot for a guild invite ("invite me to your guild", "ginv", or in Russian). Its trade line said to whisper it, but nothing happened before. Only bot-run guilds of your faction, when you have no guild.

Shaman totems

• Strength of Earth, Stoneskin, Windfury, Mana Spring and most others came up and did nothing, for players and bots. Our data only told 6 kinds of totem what to cast. Every totem now casts its own rank's spell.
• Old totems showed zzOLD (or [VIEUX] in French) over their heads. That leftover tag is gone.

Mounts on client 70790

• 19 older mounts gave walking speed and then dropped off. The new client has no mount record for them, so the server didn't know what kind of mount they were. They have records now.
• The Mottled Raptor whistle said you can't do that here. It used a mount type the client doesn't have.
• Swift Spectral Tiger uses the Swift Zulian Tiger look, because the client has no model for it.

Quests

• Quest items never reached your bags and objectives didn't count, on Zephras Isle and elsewhere. A flag from newer data made the server only bump a counter, and this client doesn't show that. Cleared everywhere. Thanks to sombi4 for finding it.
• Bugged (93949): kills stayed at 0/8 because it wanted an NPC that doesn't exist. It counts Enchanted Skyhoppers now.
• Garion Wendell, Jennea Cannon and Owen Thadd offered dozens of book quests to everyone, even low levels, in red. A data restore in 0.1.30 brought them back with no limits. Now you only get one with the book in your bags. 9 quests with no objective paid out for nothing, so they're no longer offered. Research Access waits for level 20.
• Confront Lorthuna exists twice and the Rohashi portal only knew one of them. Both work now.
• Resupplying the Excavation relied on a trigger the client doesn't have. It completes at Huldar now. Fix from Finelam.
• Revenge of Gann: the Bael Modan Flying Machine and 24 other quest objects couldn't be used because of a bad old value.
• Herak always drops his head for Get Off Our Land (it was 40%).
• Quest drops that had a guessed 40% chance use the real rate where we have one.
• Anachronos attacked everyone in Tanaris. He's friendly now.

Places

• Shadowfang Keep: a group could get stuck at the gate after Fenrus. Fenrus and Nandos now open the doors, and they stay open.
• The Purple Parlor portal dropped you outside the tower. It lands inside now.
• The Abandoned in Ruins of Lordaeron could keep flying and couldn't be attacked if pulled early. It lands now.
• The Stormwind Officers' Lounge had two doors and plaques in the same spot. There's one now.

Items and classes

• Healthstones and mana gems showed 0 and went grey. The charge count was saved in the wrong slot.
• Sword of Corruption procced on every hit, because the game file says 100%. It's 1 per minute now.
• Campfire rest didn't start from a typed /sit in another language. It does now. Tier 2 and 3 camp features gave no buff, and now give the buff of the feature they replace.

Blizzard's hotfixes of 4 to 6 November

• Defensive Stance threat is 80%, Deathstalker Erland is back in 60 seconds, Plainsrunning gets no stacks before a battleground starts and a flag carrier loses them, plus items, talent values and changed spells as live has them.

Auction house

• Bot prices were far too low, with level 60 epics at 20 to 90g. They're closer to vanilla now, and a level 60 blue is about 40g. Old cheap listings end once and come back at the new price. The buyer bot pays at most 1.5x, so you can't farm it.
• New setting AuctionHouseBot.Vanilla.ValueCurve.Scale in zz-9-local.conf: 1 is normal, 2 is double, 0.5 is half.

Bots

• World bots ran for half a second and then stopped for a second, over and over, because every new route started with a stop. They walk smoothly now.
• Free gold into guild banks: bots got topped up to 200g, paid into the bank, then got topped up again. One bank had 3333g nobody earned. That's stopped.
• Mages cast Arcane Wrath, and rogues cast Shank and Death Mark. They never used those new spells before.
• Bots cleansed Hakkar's Poisonous Blood off people who need to keep it. They leave it on now.

Login and launcher

• Log in with just your name, no @local needed. Lots of people got stuck on that. name@local still works.
• Optional single names: Classic.CharacterSurnames = 0 hides surnames. The default stays as it was.
• A PC under 16 GB could freeze on Play with too many bots. It gets Low bots now, and you get one warning before starting with more.
• If port 8085 was taken, the server kept closing with a useless message. Auto-restart now checks first and tells you why.

Russian

• 273 Forever quests get Russian titles and objectives, and the newer NPCs got their Russian names back.

Still looking at

• Bots can stand still in the cave in front of Wailing Caverns. We're on it.

Update or install
Update: press Update in the launcher, then close it and open it again.
New install: download WoW-Forever-Bots-0.1.31.zip, unzip it into a folder whose path has no spaces (for example C:\WoWForever), and double-click Install.cmd.

Karrz

Hi all, Karrz here. 0.1.32 is out. The login kick some of you got after picking the realm is fixed, Forever quest chains are back in order, doubled NPCs are gone and fishing works in the low level waters. Here's everything that changed and why.

Download: https://github.com/Karrz1/Karrz-playerbots-wow-forever/releases/tag/v0.1.32
Discord (help, news, bug reports): https://discord.gg/QJBM6tR3E4
Client builds: 70862, 70840, 70790, 70755, 70707 and the older ones in client-builds.txt. No game files are in the download: you use your own WoW Forever client.

What changed in 0.1.32

Login

• Some players got kicked right after picking the realm (WOW51900319), mostly on Russian game clients. The launcher couldn't find the spot in the game where it puts the server key. It finds it now.
• After a game crash (like out of memory) the launcher's backup key search switched itself off for good, and you couldn't log in again. Only a crash caused by the key write itself turns it off now.

Quests and world

• Forever quest chains need the quest before them again (Westfall's Moonbrook and Deadmines chain and about 80 more), so later quests don't show up early.
• The world map only shows Classic quests as available.
• Exploring the Alliance: Mekkatorque, Magni and Tyrande can be talked to.
• A Light in the Darkness comes after The Damned.
• Doubled NPCs removed (two Faldrim Anvilmars, doubled Ironforge guards and others). Thanks to neylem.
• Camp Tent objects removed from the adventurer camps.
• The Argent Sentries at Light's Hope Chapel walk instead of floating in the air.
• Blizzard's live hotfixes for build 70840: items, Gore Drinker, Kidney Shot, Gouge, Soulstone and texts.

Fishing

• Zephras Isle and the low level rivers and lakes (Southfury River, Lordamere Lake) catch fish properly. Thanks to alexia.

Bots

• Bots wear holiday clothes only while the holiday runs.
• Low level world bots don't wear gear far above their level.
• Bots pay the vendor price for items they can't use.
• Blackwing Lair: bots wear the Onyxia Scale Cloak there and handle Vaelastrasz better.

Other

• Battlegrounds give PvP rank points, and each rank costs what the game shows.
• Full auction scans by add-ons such as Auctionator see the items.
• Saving a transmog outfit is no longer refused over a price difference.
• New settings: Rate.Talent (talent points per level) and Rate.MoveSpeed.Player / Rate.MoveSpeed.Creature.
• Host for friends (beta): one Turn on sets up every way in at once (home network, internet, Radmin VPN or ZeroTier, Cloudflare backup) and gives one join code. Please tell us in Discord how it goes.

Update: press Update in the launcher, then close it and open it again.
