[Help] Making a bot
 

hi pple

i am playing a 3D game now and i wanted to learn how to make a bot. It seems quite interesting after i had read some bot related articles, but the depth of the details were all way too deep. Well, at least its deep for me, as a newbie who know only basic programming of C/C++/java.

Hope someone would enlighten me on the following questions :

1) Which programming language should i use for making a game bot?
2) How do i make the bot send as keyboard/mouse signals so that i can bypass GameGuard/Xtrap?
3) How do i identify the monster inside the game? By finding the name of the monster or by finding the pixel or perhaps by addresses?

I want to start it simple. Just being able to bypass the anti-cheating software, search for the monster in the game and kill it. I know there are macros applications out there, but most(or all?) of em will be blocked by
the anti-cheating software and i wanted to create my own .exe.

Please pardon me if i asked any n00b questions. I might have missed out the online guides out there, please let me know if there is any that suits the current situation.

Thanks in advance :)

I can't understand very well what bot you are trying to do, but if its some kind of bot that will play instead of you or such you are not on the right place. We are writting a server side bots that are created by the server so they can make fun of the players. Anyway if I'm wrong for what game are you trying to write a bot?

I am trying to create a bot that will help me auto-train ^^ well.. thats one of the main reason that motivated me to make a bot of my own. From what i read, its client side bot.

Thanks for the reply :)

Hi,

You can start from reading a bit the Valve Developer Community wiki, and more generally this topic - http://developer.valvesoftware.com/w...rver-Side_Bots
It is explained how you can start. :)
