Download: See attachement!

What is this?
This is based on the original Seafight client, but it has all of the images replaced.
That means bots don't have to use slow and inaccurate picture search anymore, because every single ship, monster, button, ... can be uniquely identified by a specific color.
No color is used twice!
The purpose is to serve much better pixel bots (and other clickbots), compared to the existing ones.
This is not a bot itself - but I'm sure that there will be bots based on this.
So how to use it?
It's actually simple to set up.
Here is a video on how to set it up, but I also explain it below.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]
- Download the file from the attachement and unpack it anywhere on your computer. Remember the location of course.
- Open Fiddler and open the AutoResponder tab on the right and tick "Enable automatic responses" and "Unmachted requests passthrough"
- Add this rule:
Code:
Line 1:
regex:(?ix)http://(?>(?:\w+\.)?seafight\.(?>\b\w{2,}\.\b)*(?:[\da-z]){2,3}|seafight-[\d]+\.(?:ah|level3)\.bpcdn\.net)/(?=(?:\w+/)?(?<o1>client/))(?=(?:\k<o1>)?(?<o2>(?:res/)?(?:(?<tree>ships|fx|pet|monster|items|maptiles|effects|uiElements|gui|uiConfig|minimaps|api)/)))(?:\k<o1>|\k<o2>){2}(?<res>[\w_\-]*(?:\.cfg)?(?!\.php)|dlc(?=\.php)|getStartTip(?=\.php))\.(?<type>swf|png|xml|php|css)(?:\?.*)?$ # Seafight custom client
Line 2:
<Your download folder>\Seafight custom client - Pixelbot Edition\data\$3\modified\$4.$5
[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]
If you need to see an example for this step, there is one in the FAQ.
- You're done! Now you can open the sea chart (but make sure you have disabled animated monsters and animated water).
Once you've set it up, you can use it simply by opening Fiddler. If you open the sea chart without having Fiddler opened, everything will be normal.
You don't have to empty your Browsercache!*
*Note: The replaced 2-color minimap graphics will work only if you do empty your cache before use. Everything else works without clearing your cache.
Here are some frequently asked questions people asked or might ask :)
FAQ:
Can you show an example for the Fiddler rule?
Sure. Let's say you downloaded the attachement in your standard download folder and unpacked it there, and your username in Windows is "Randomguy".
Then you copy line 1 directly as is, and in line 2 (= "then respond with...") you put this:
Code:
C:\Users\Randomguy\Downloads\Seafight custom client - Pixelbot Edition\data\$3\modified\$4.$6
Ignore the $-stuff, that's only for Fiddler. You don't have to replace them (and you shouldn't).
I'm getting an error when trying to open the sea map.
It says: "ERROR LOADING projectiles -> ...seafight-14.level3.bpcdn.net/clie...rojectiles.swf -> RELOADING in 5 sec...". What am I doing wrong?
You've set up the Fiddler path wrong. Please read the description carefully, and make sure you don't mix up folders - make sure the "data" folder is located in the path you entered in Fiddler.
If it still doesn't work, no problem. Fiddler will mark entries on the left in red - click on them, and choose the tab "Inspectors" on the right.
Then click on "TextView" in the lower pane - it will tell you what file it's looking for, and why it can't find it. Example:
[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]
1. Select a red entry with "404" in the result column
2. Select the "Inspectors" view
3. Open the "TextView" tab
4. Spot the error in your Fiddler rule
How did you make this?
This is based on the original client, but I replaced all images, videos and resources it uses, plus I replaced and revised the user interface.
Since this required modifying over 600 .swf files and over 7000 images inside them, I wrote a program (using the programming language Ruby) to to the job.
The program I've made is also released with this, you can find it attached inside the archive, as open-source software. To run it, you will need to have Ruby 1.8.*, ImageMagick, RMagick and swfmill installed on your system.
Then you can simply run it by writing
Code:
ruby generate_custom_client.rb
in a command line. It runs on Windows, Linux, and other platforms, but I recommend Linux as it's easiest to set it up with.
I want to make a bot based on this, how do I know which colors to use?
You can find a file named "Color lookup table.txt" inside the archive.
It lists all the colors you will see in the client in a table format.
Does it cost anything?
No, it's completely free. Additionally you can modify it to fit your needs, as I released the program to create it as open-source.
I want to make a bot based on this, but I want money for it. Can I do that?
I ask you not to. This was a lot of work, and I would not like to see it being sold for money.
I reserve the right to prohibit commercial use for future versions.
What about Seafight updates?
These are not a problem. If for example new ship designs were added, you will get error messages if you come across this ship until you downloaded an updated version from here.
The program actually analyses the current client and downloads + modifies all required files, that means even on updates the program does not need to be changed. It only has to be executed again to produce the modified files (you can always find the most up-to-date files here).
Can the colors change in the future?
Short answer is, no, they remain the same. New items/ships etc. will be added with new unique colors automatically.
That way you don't have to rewrite your bot on Seafight updates.
Are really all colors unique?
Well almost. The exception is the HP bar below ships and monsters, I have no way to replace that. However it's very tiny, so you can rely on that everything that is supposed to be used is of at least 20x20 pixels in size.
Also the minimaps might contain other colors if you don't empty your cache. If you do, you get a 2-colored version of them.
Is there a list of all changes in detail?
Well no, not yet. If you require one please let me know, and I add it here.
I'm a bot developer, and I would love to have the detail xyz changed. Can you do it?
That's the good thing about open-source software: You can just change it in the program yourself and experiment with the results.
If you are unable to do that, I can also assist you. If you think that change would be good for all users, you can of course ask in this thread, but I don't promise anything.
I found a bug, something doesn't work as expected!
If you really have to question my freedom from error you may post it in the thread :)
How can I use this bot?
Read the description again carefully, this is not a bot.
Is there any risk of getting banned for using this?
Definetly not. The reason is that everything is changed locally on your computer, that means the server doesn't even "know" you are using a custom client.

Ahoi Piraten,
Ich veröffentliche hier meinen Seafight custom client in der Pixelbot Edition.
Aktuelle Version / Datum des Kompilierens: 1.13 / 03.12.2013
Download: Im Anhang!
Virustotal: [Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]
Was ist das?
Das Ganze basiert auf dem originalen Seafight-Client, aber es wurden sämtliche Bilder ersetzt.
Das bedeutet, dass Bots keine langsame und ungenaue Bildsuche mehr verwenden müssen, denn jedes einzelne Schiff, Monster, Bedienelement, ... kann nun eindeutig über seine Farbe identifiziert werden.
Keine Farbe kommt doppelt vor!
Der Sinn dahinter ist, wesentlich bessere Pixelbots (und andere Klickbots) zu ermöglichen, verglichen mit den derzeit verfügbaren.
Das hier ist kein Bot - aber ich bin sicher, dass Bots auf dieser Basis entwickelt werden.
Wie benutze ich das?
Es ist relativ einfach einzurichten.
Hier ist ein Video mit Instruktionen, aber ich erkläre es auch nochmals unten.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]
- Lade das Archiv aus dem Anhang herunter, und entpacke es irgendwo auf deinem Computer. Merke dir natürlich den Ordner.
- Öffne Fiddler und wähle den AutoResponder-Tab auf der rechten Seite aus. Markiere "Enable automatic responses" und "Unmachted requests passthrough".
- Füge diese Regel hinzu:
Code:
Zeile 1:
regex:(?ix)http://(?>(?:\w+\.)?seafight\.(?>\b\w{2,}\.\b)*(?:[\da-z]){2,3}|seafight-[\d]+\.(?:ah|level3)\.bpcdn\.net)/(?=(?:\w+/)?(?<o1>client/))(?=(?:\k<o1>)?(?<o2>(?:res/)?(?:(?<tree>ships|fx|pet|monster|items|maptiles|effects|uiElements|gui|uiConfig|minimaps|api)/)))(?:\k<o1>|\k<o2>){2}(?<res>[\w_\-]*(?:\.cfg)?(?!\.php)|dlc(?=\.php)|getStartTip(?=\.php))\.(?<type>swf|png|xml|php|css)(?:\?.*)?$ # Seafight custom client
Zeile 2:
<Dein Downloadordner>\Seafight custom client - Pixelbot Edition\data\$3\modified\$4.$5
[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]
Falls du für diesen Schritt ein Beispiel sehen möchtest, findest du eines in der FAQ.
- Das war's! Nun kannst du die Seekarte öffnen (aber stelle sicher, dass du animierte Monster und animiertes Wasser deaktiviert hast).
Wenn du es einmal eingerichtet hast, kannst du es einfach benutzen indem du Fiddler öffnest. Wenn du die Seekarte ohne Fiddler öffnest, ist alles wieder normal.
Du musst deinen Browsercache dazu nicht leeren!*
*Anmerkung: Die zweifarbigen Minimap-Grafiken funktionieren nur, wenn du vorher deinen Cache leerst. Alles andere funktioniert ohne das Leeren des Caches.
