I have good macro-based bot that I can share, if you can't fix yours =)

I'm testing several ideas right now on how to work around it, with some success. I just have to update the bot to work around it, but it will take a bit to finish.

Please post a link to your macro so people can hunt until I can get hellfire back online.

XTrap starts up first when you hit START on the launcher, then shuts down. Once Hero starts up and gets logged in, XTrap starts back up. The XTrap server (separate from NetGame) then sends a check about every 5 minutes to see if XTrap is still running, and if it isn't, XTrap shuts Hero down.

I made a backup copy the old Hero.exe and Launcher.exe files before letting the game update, then copied the old files over the ones with XTrap. I can log in and run Hellfire for about 5 minutes, then it crashes when XTrap polls the game (finally caught a packet when it happened to look at)

I can not open any macro, because any program that is open, the Xtrap detects and closes. I need some way to disable Xtrap

I'm pretty much on the same progress, I made backups aswell of the old files and I managed to run few scripts that can run over xtrap. Im testing it right now. I made a simple bot on autoit, still fixing some things but its working fine. I wonder did you find any way to send keys to the updated hero client, since they imported some keysend blocking on it. Sadly with the old client, I can run the game for about 5~10 mins aswell.

Making headway. I have the bot reading the game memory, just need to work out the kinks in the key sending routines. Then comes the testing ....

I hope you get a Bypass for X-Trap cos I wasted now 3 days for nothing....


I found if I activate for example Cheat Engine and Wait until the X-Trap Mail Dissapear itself..
Then im able to use Sendkey commands.. This mean the Security is broke for about 5min..

I think I found out why that works. When you run the Launcher, it starts up XTrap. Then XTrap runs its updater before starting Hero, Finally, to keep from interfering with the Hero startup, XTrap shuts down.

Here's the kicker:
Netgame bundled the XTrap code INTO the game itself, which is why it has a pause. It doesn't need an external call to load XTrap because it calls the routines from inside the game. As long as you keep your memory reads short, (open, read, close) the game is fine with you reading the memory.

karraksc do you think that you can pass the xtrap? i'd like to use your bot
(using macro is not good enough)

Working as fast as I can.

I am making progress, though not as fast as I had hoped. This version of XTrap is not the normal one I've seen in the past. Recently the company that makes XTrap bought a company that makes a industry strength firewall, and they have combined the two to make XTrap Premium. On top of that, they have started using WinLicense to protect the game from being modded. Finding a way to tunnel thru the firewall is proving to be a challenge.

For all of you playing Hero Plus, you can thank Haxor ingame for shouting in the chats about how "broken" the security was on the game and getting the GMs attention.

[karraksc]

I have the bot working, and testing it ingame now. Once I get a couple things ironed out, I'll post a release.

nice i need your bot
thanks for your job

have you ever thought about not release newer versions public? so they cant patch

8^D If I didn't release it here, where would you find it? lol 8^D They are going to continue to patch the game whether I post it public or not. My success so far depended on keeping a low profile in-game so they would have no reason to increase the security. I accomplished this by making the bot as undetectable as I could, timing commands so it seemed as if a person (actually imitating how I play) were at the keyboard actually grinding.

If I were to take it to a private site for releases, it would cost me hosting fees and spend admin time to keep up with it. To do that, I would have to start charging a fee to cover the hosting costs. I have been coding Hellfire for my own use, and sharing it without cost, except for my time, because I enjoy the challenge of puzzles.

I wonder how you made the keyboard input work. Since the xtrap is blocking any virtual keystokes sent to the client from 3rd party software. Give a hint on private message if you don't want to share it publicly. I want to fix my Inventory Trash Cleaning bot. I could share it aswell if I manage to make it work =)
