RSBuddy is making progress.

Edit: I'm not sure if its released to the public yet.

http://rsbuddy.com/forum/game-update-25th-october-169429.html

Damn it.

"running with limited functionality".

My ass and very misleading title.
People you have to realize they are a business and not a community. They have many users who purchased there bots, so of course they need to say something to keep them happy. Jacmob was in the MITB irc asking for help earlier. He also states that his bot is in limited functionality (it could basically mean the bot just loads the game). Benland100 and others have said this update is pretty rugged and it will take months to figure something out. iBot/Nexus themselves have said to not expect any updates in the near future and they are much more advanced than Rsbuddy.

Ugh…

Bro Jacmob will be GODLY if he can bot in this world:


P.S. Look at my position in QUEUE… That's just the amount of ppl trying to get in to do penguins… and distractions & diversions..

This. They're probably in about the same if not worse state as we are in, Reflection is gone and iirc they don't have any color scripts. All they probably have is what we have with SMART, being able to just load the client. I highly doubt they'll figure out how to do anything before iBot does.

funny thing is I was just reading this on rsbuddy before I came and seen it here. Should not of out that as the title tho :p misleading.

We are much better off and once all bugs are ironed out in MSI we will then have loads of scripts to chose from again, for now.

No, he was in the IRC channel talking with everyone else about the update. He doesn't expect people to rewrite his updater or fix the bot for him.

As for your comment about limited functionality, that's probably the most accurate claim that you make. When I talked with him yesterday, he was working on hooking the bare essentials to have the bot run the client properly. Given the amount of experience he has with the RS client and the progress that I saw him make yesterday, I don't think it's unfeasible to say that that event has already happened or will happen very shortly.

Regarding your other comments about the process taking months to complete and that iBot developers are "more advanced" than Jacmob, neither are true.

Well if you are correct then… that really sucks. Trilez however, has already begun to get hooks slowly, but there are still other factors.
I still call a lot of bluff.

I reported my post to have the title changed.

TRiLeZ had 25 hooks done in a few hours. I'm working on getting a full/complete deob so we'll be able to work together. We're at the stage where there are 2 non-decompilable methods. I'm going to finish homework and hopefully work more on integration of the deobbers (currently have them spread out over two projects).

Is there any possibility that they might be tracking the use of the loader?

Okay interesting. Do you think after you fully deob the client you will have a clearer idea on how to get a working updater?

From: Jacmob

I would like to point out that my intentions for RSBuddy do not include supporting gold farming companies with mass botting software. If we have reason to believe that the overuse of RSBuddy for gold farming is having a serious impact on gameplay then I may take technical measures to prevent the use of RSBuddy in this way. We are happy for you to use RSBuddy to progress your accounts, but we do not expect you to register large numbers of 'throw away' accounts with which to fill the game.

Bet he's working with Jagex. :stirthepot:

Or he realizes it's the mass bot armies that are goldfarming that ruins the gameplay, as opposed to people botting on (for example) their main or their pure just for personal gain.

This.

Rsbot says they need 14-28 days.

Umm i don't think that's the reason xD
There is/was some sort of protest by one of the botting groups in world 60.

-Boom

Protesting… For what? Let bots back in? Lol?

Umm, I'm sure it was because of the penguins. :)

Like they always do.
I do not expect any of the java bots to be updated within a month

I just had a look at the situation of RSB and I seen this.
What do people make of it ?


Seems like hes saying that hes got it all figured out ?

Wait till it works for a day, and jagex sets off another nuke (According to jagex they have another one, prob a bluff)

It's a bluff.

****** told me Jacmob himself does not even know when Rsbuddy will be back.

Of course. If he just came out and said he can't fix RsBuddy then he'd have some serious customer issues on his hands. It'd be much easier to say the update is soon on its way, even throw out a timer just to please people, and when that timer runs out make up another excuse to buy time. Maybe something like "before we could launch a public release, Jagex changed the client again, blah blah blah". It's easy to say anything when you have nothing to show for.

Exacto! Same thing I'm thinking, and I spread this all over Sythe only to get flamed :spot:. But little do they know my friend…that there playing with fire.:fiery:

You forgot the according to Eric part. To take information being spread around in private is definitely playing with fire. Let the events unfold.
Anyways, I'm sure Jacmob has a general time frame and is more than capable of updating. Given what I know about him, I'm sure he'll be able to adhere generally to the timer. Obviously there will be issues that show up that aren't predicted. Its certainly a possibility that he will not update when the timer hits 0 and theres a possibility that he will. If Eric is right, then RSBuddy will not update. We'll see in a few days time.

Sorry to mention you. But who is "Eric"?

Eric Snellman.

Aka ruler

I doubt that those bots will be back up within the timer…Yeah, it's probably just to pacify the payin' customers. If they do get them back up within that time, it'd be a miracle.

It'll be fun to see how everyone reacts when the countdown ends.

I personally don't know enough of how the client works to make an educated statement, but pyroryan seems to think Jacmob can do it? Regardless, waiting is the best way to find out.

Do not want to be in the skin of Jacmob. The entire community of bots paid (RSBuddy) depends on him. At this point, Jacmob must have an enormous pressure on his shoulders.
He only has two choices: either to solve the problem of RSbuddy or will have a rage community upon him. And that mightcomplicate things.
A wise thing would be, if he can not fix the problem, he should return the money and end with RSbuddy. Giving false hopes won't take him anywhere. He'll just get some more time. I wish him the best, thought.

Why should he ever have to return the money…?

If he doesn't fix the problem, people might start demanding their money. Just though, nothing more else.

And if they start demanding their money back, he can just point them to the terms they agreed to when they paid him.

From: senrath

Exactly. He wasn't selling a lifetime service. He was selling auths for as long as they work.

So I owe an apology for this misunderstanding

The question isn't whether he can fix it. He can. Its more about whether he has the time to fix it before the timer hits 0.

The question is: Why did he even create that timer.

Maybe he feels he works better under pressure and/or with a deadline?

Maybe for the off chance he does finish. Then everyone loves him.

I think he shouldn't have created a timer, tbh. When reaches the deadline, all what we would want to know is: He did before the time expired or didn't he?
Now, like senrath says, he likes to work under pressure? Because, if so, he is, definitely, under pressure, right now.
But, oh well…2 days till we get some more news about the 'health' of reflection bots.

So people would stop bitching of when it's coming back.

Also note Rsbot and Rsbuddy are combining on this day.

It also helps scriptors out since I've been doing re-writing most of the week.

No, RSBot and RSBuddy are not "combining".

Yes, I asked him on IRC - he refused to give a direct answer.

"Goodfight" is all I have to say. +1 to Jagex.

Well looks like rsbuddy is over.
I can't get on rsbuddy to see anything either.
Here are a few threads over at powerbot.

Looks like we are all thats left ;) well done SRL I think this is a blessing for us as we will be able to put up a fight against Jagex. With all the great programmers/scripters we have here in our lovely community we should be able to over come any update. :)

WT-Fakawi posted a new thread just after I did this so further talks about this on this thread please http://villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=67495
