SRL Archive - Unofficial Development

Hey,
Just wanted to share my progress with you all. I've been working on this for past few months now. Soon ready to have some kind of beta release.

So I don't know anything about OpenGl, how does it work for runescape botting?

Very impressive. What do you intend to do with it? I mean, start a new bot site like tribot? Just share it with srl? something else?

From: ssshhhaaa
So I don't know anything about OpenGl, how does it work for runescape botting?

Well first lets explain how different bots works.

• Injection bots: Epicbot, powerbot, rarebot, etc
• OpenGL/DirectX bots: Tribot, now this, and also some more user like brandon and mato working on their version.
• Color bots: Simba, RiD etc
• Packets bots: None that I know of (very rare)

Lets see how it works. Consider the following image. (yes I made it using paint, it's just to give you an idea of how it work)

This is how runescape 'works'. Jagex's code decide what needs to be displayed on the screen. It then uses openGL, directx, or software mode to send information to the graphic card/cpu.

Injection works at the 'jagex's code' box. They hack it and find how things work inside it. This mean they have access to pretty much all variables.
Color bots works at the 'screen' box. It looks at the screen and find colors.
OpenGL bots work in the middle. It intercept the calls jagex's code makes to the graphics card using OpenGl. It has most of the advantage of the injection bots, while keeping the advantage of the colors bot.

Main advantages are::

• No downtime after runescape updates (as opposed to injection).
• Object finding nearly as easy as injection.
• Resistant to bot nukes (as opposed to injection).
• Unique items ID (like injection).
• ###Random solving###, almost as good as injection. The only one that would cause problem would be the mime, since openGl bots can't detect animation like injection can AFAIK ***See note

Main disadvantage are:

• Object must be on screen to be detected (as opposed to injection, where it only need to be 'loaded') ***See note
• Walking almost as hard as color, but *might* be as easy as injection in the future. *** See note

I can't really think of anything else right now…


*** Correction by drizilc:

From: drizilc

1. Object doesn't have to be on screen, there's a area on what everything is "predrawn" out of screen
2. It is possible to detect animations, btw. Mime is the place where I'm working it out.
3. 50% correction:
Walking, pretty hard to make but i've already got a solid plan how to implement it. Probably one of the most important things on my todo list.

OpenGl

OpenGl everywhere

Looks like its working well. I can't wait for lape & openGl, should make our life so much easier.

I'm kind of left behind in this OpenGl thingy, Is this like a client where you would get to play any script. Kind of like injection bot clients?

Which library do you use to access OpenGL from java?

In general, the video is reminiscent of a sources PowerBot or something similar. Java is not able to work directly with OpenGl.

You hook the opengl driver functions that do all the drawing, then the bot can basically see everything your graphics card can.

Yes it can work with opengl as seen on the video.

I'm using my own JNI wrapper to work with opengl.

in easy to understand: opengl is written to like memory is written to.. or pretty much any type of API, thus everything has a unique "ID" and I'm sure you can figure out how that would make stuff easy for us

Ok thank you, I now have an idea what it is. Thanks to eska too who put that little explanation there.

From: grats

In example in my object api:

findNearest(id).click();

or

GLObject target = Objects.findNearest(id);
target.click();

example usage:
(Everything is not totally correct, wrote from memory)

findNearest(id).click();
waitFor(id, IS_NOT_PRESENT);
inventory.interact(id,MENU);
menu.hover("drop");
waitFor(id,IS_PRESENT);
Mouse.click();

that would in example:

1. click a ore to mine
2. wait for player to start mining
3. hover item to drop
4. wait for player to stop animating
5. drop the ore
6. repeat

Thanks alot for a informative response!

Only two things to correct:

1. Object doesn't have to be on screen, there's a area on what everything is "predrawn" out of screen
2. It is possible to detect animations, btw. Mime is the place where I'm working it out.

And for the what are my plans for it:
Some sort of monetization i'll have to utilize, because I'm working on this full time. Reason: have to keep my kids fed.

Wow impressive :O

This is quite impressive. Might want to talk to Brandon about it so you guys can share info!

nice!

Very impressive work! Thanks a bunch for this.

Thanks for that lovely reply + rep'd you for that :3

So OpenGl seems to have a good future ahead of it self, and good look to your bot!

Good luck.

Maybe share 'ol knowledge with Brandon over there. Two heads are better than one.
;)

Maybe we will, we will see in the future.

If I make a new video, what would you guys like to see?

From: drizilc

Id say randoms solver. Mostly the one that simba can't solve right now, like evil twin or Gravedigger.

Just show off what It can do, show its advantages over color. Bedazzle us!

From: eska

I'll do one of those as soon as I get either one! I'll leave my test crew on for the night so hopefully in the morning I have something to work with.

From: eska

Didn't get those today, added a random solving video anyway. New try tomorrow with those two. It seems like I get everything else but those.

is it me or do I see WoodCutterPro as the script name?

From: Mat

Yes you see it right, it's just a placeholder text for the layout.

Random event framework is now done.

Would we get to see any source?
or anything?

Mat

May I ask you why would you like to see the source? Something I could possibly show, but it's my full time job at the moment -> little protective of what to show.

To make sure it's not fake, blah blah blah, it's your work, not a ripped client, stuff like that, and to make sure it's safe. :3

A, if you ever released to make sure the client isn't hacknig acc's.
B to make sure its legit, as NKN said.
Mat

From: NKN

and to make sure it's safe

It will be released under my company name in the near future. That should be enough after people that are interested have followed the last phases of development before release.

For the fake part:
I'll soon probably upload a video where I solve the next random (code it etc)

So why are you posting it here?
To draw people to your Company (Site)
When it released?
Mat

Posting it here just that people get to see what I've done. I've been lurking around for so long and never had anything worthy to say really, now I did have something to say. I will not post any direct links to my company website

And when I post stuff and make videos I see mistakes / features missing I didn't see before.

I still, don't see a need to post something in R&D that has nothing to do with Simba / SRL.
As its completely Closed Source from what your saying, and not going to have any link to here.
Might just be me.
But from the video's it still looks good, Similar to TRiBot.

There will be parts that are not closed source. And about the section your probably right, maybe it should have been in general or programming :)

What parts can be open and closed source?
Surly if its closed source what can be open?
Mat

This is very very very good looking!

I'm so glad someone finally brought this up :)

What method did you use for text recognition? Like how did you grab text from the client?

This looks great, can't wait to see it in action (randoms etc).
And I totally agree that it needs to be monetized in some way else it'll just be too full of leechers.

I don't think that monetizing keeps out leechers any more than it keeps out possible contributors…

Good job man!
Releases this work enjoy it!

Give him a break.

He work on this full time. He doesn't owe you anything.
If you are house builder, I wouldn't expect you to build my house, for 2 months, for free.

This guy is building a bot from scratch and all by himself. It's just normal that he want to make some money out of it, or at least make back some of the money he lost by just being alive while making it.

It's also normal that he fears that his work risk being stolen if he post the source.

From: Brandon

Conditions to recognize font textures -> generate font. Basically working with the font as a whole. That way even if they add a new one suddenly, it will be recognized as a font.

If that didn't satisfy as a answer I will try to explain better when I'm in my work "box" (literally a box) working.

Real contributors will be rewarded to drag them in and keep them in. No one wants to pay to contribute and make someone else make money without any added benefits for him/herself.

And thank you for your feedback!

The monetizing part is to keep me working on this full time. Have to feed the kids.

I used to script alot for other bots, but I feel like nowadays the updates etc. aren't consistent enough with other bots. I want to keep the progress professional (regular updates, solid plan to recover from changes in game or nuke).

Looks sweet, are you going to release it for SRL or create your own community?

From: NKN
Good luck.

Maybe share 'ol knowledge with Brandon over there. Two heads are better than one.
;)

I agree, I would like to see all of these separate openGL projects into 1 solid movement, would be really nice and probably speed stuff up

ca. 1½ weeks to release.

As soon as your company releases it, I'll be buying stocks and jumping ship from Simba/SRL.

Why Jump Ship, had enough of SRL?
Or just want something different?
Also @OP will be able to code for this bot?

Joe is going to buy 51% of the "company" stocks.

Sorry about the rating.

I saw your thread only has one star and I was wondering who's the tool who did that, only to find out that I had 'already voted' so that tool is in fact me…

Must have miss clicked on it at some point.

Edit: I might not be a tool after all.

I say you thread only one star and wondered who's the tool who did that, only to find it that I had 'already voted' so that tool is in fact me…

Must have miss clicked on it at some point.

I just checked also, and it said I rated, and I've never rated a thread before. e.e

Broken much?

Ha! Found a way to vote even though it said I already voted.

Right click on 'rating' at the top of the page and open in a new tab.

Scroll all the way down, you'll see a 'Go' button, and next to it, the rating system.
Rate it as you see fit, press go, profit.

Yes, you will be able to code for this bot. You can make randoms, scripts and sometime after release I'll be making possible to change Mouse & Keyboard classes the bot uses. (just for if someone wants to make their input totally different from other users.)

I see this as a good business venture :D
and honestly, I already gave Jagex everybody's personal info. ;)
Enjoy your permbanz!
loljk I ruv SRL and will be here til the end.
This bot seems kinda cool if its legit.

Is this project still going?

From: t0b1as

Yes it is, its also released. I promised to Matt not to provide a link, and it would be straight up advertising, you can find progress stuff on the twitter in the original post.
