Free FFXIV Craft Bot - Craft While Minimized! (Limited Time)

Moetoy · 07/30/2011, 01:16

Thank lucid for your post here lol
I was took my post about XIVHelper down yesterday because I was cross-marketing in my webpost's comment from some Russian guy that making some free FFXIV bot also.

For me, as a developer, I respect everyone's work. I know that making 1 program took time and effort, and those afford should get some reward in someway.

So I was kind of mad when some that Russian guy try to sell their bot on my website.. or the XIVHelper guy who just take my 6-months-old free FFXIV bot and sell in their website for real money.. and he never update it to any better. This XIVHelper guy also try to sell his bot in my Youtube comment also.And he also request my mining/logging bot source code for free...??? heck! what wrong with him!?!

I'm glad that there's another good developer like you (Lucid) want to make something better, it also fire me up to make my bot better too lol.

With our competition, the one who'll get the profit is our users ^^

Hope you can figure out how to implement fishing logic soon :P /cheer

I agree, really quite sad that you had to experience that, especially considering it was likely a result of you trying to offer a free trial so your customers could have confidence in their purchases

Hopefully we've shed enough light on the situation to prevent people from supporting such unoriginal work.

Users most certainly will benefit from some healthy competition! It keeps things interesting for us, too.

I've noticed that I can't choose "Always on Top" unless im not synthing. Is it possible to adjust this toggle anytime? I forgot to set it and it greys out after you start crafting

Its in 1.3.2.5, but that isn't out yet because I added Maker's Muse to the UI as "MM" for someone (had no room).

Once I shuffle abilities around I'll release 1.3.2.5 which allows always on top toggle anytime.

great product, first one i've tried that actually works for more than 30 minutes on my comp!

how hard would it be to add "last item" to the recipe drop down list? meaning it would synth the last item in your inventory. would be a perfect match after a long day of fishing!

So it would be a single-material synth consisting of whatever item was at the bottom of your inventory? What would it do then, synth only that material, or keep trying to synth from the inventory?

It could be done but I want to keep the UI as intuitive as possible and "last item" might confuse people into thinking it means the last item they synthesized (the top recent recipe). If there is a better title I can give it or more demand for the feature I will add it.

Of course, doing one synth manually means you could recent recipe #1 (not TOO terrible!).

phillus_01 · 07/30/2011, 23:23

Yeah i agree, just do 1 synth then use the last recipe, takes like 1.5 mins to do a synth and saves alot of coding

This way you can use up all the materials by selecting 'all'

The wait times seem to work now as well as stand up option. I really like how if the bot goes into the "Requested Items" list it will back out of the menu and go into the "Recipe" list. This only seems to happen I maximize my game to check the progress, very nice feature!

Really looking forward to Maker's Muse it's soo much better than Tender Touch imo.

Really looking forward to hand of the gods myself as it's easily the best ability! This crafter has been working very well for me outside of I can't seem to get it to use hasty hand.

Really? Are you using version 1.3.2.2 or later?

thewarranty · 07/31/2011, 01:06

Using the latest version. I've tried with just having hasty hand on, with all abilities on but no dice. Occasionally it will use but then the next synth it will just start with standard.

Sounds like a manifestation of the problem where abilities aren't accurately detected sometimes. I will include a possible fix in the next release, thanks for reporting.

Great program. 1 request.

Is it possible to add the ability to "touch up" above certain durability?

Hmm, I was going to say this was a future item but thought of a way it could be added pretty easily so it may be included in the next release.

is it normal that after i stop the bot i have to exit and restart it?

You're saying that you are unable to click synth after choosing stop? You need to let the program finish the last synth then you'll get prompted with the synth complete summary dialogue. After clicking that you can start again. You might need to reclick the icon in the task manager to make the dialog box show up because it doesn't pop to the front
