Frequently Asked questions

Q: Where does HBRelog store its settings?
A: %APPDATA%\HighVoltz\HBRelog\Setting.xml

Q: Will I be able to schedule tasks based on time e.g. 10:00 AM?
A: HBRelog doesn't support this and I'm not sure if I will ever add this because of the complexity involved and because windows already has a buildin tool (Task Scheduler) that does this.

Q: Why is the 'Wait' task soo confusing? Why not just add the wait time to Logon ?

A: Having the 'Wait' time in a task makes more sense if I expand the task system to support 'If Conditions' and other tasks such as Moveto plus more (No promises that I will add this but I had it in mind when I designed the task system), and the Logon task was already crammed with allot of properties and I didn't want to clutter it any more.

A: Does this write/inject into Wow.exe memory?
Q: Yes, when it needs to log into the game it hooks a method that even legitimate programs like Fraps and similar programs use. The stub is randomized and hook is removed while Wow is loading into game and covered with the original bytes.

A: Why does HBRelog try to connect to the internet?
Q: HBRelog will check if the Wow servers are online before it attempts to log in Wow if this option is enabled in the Options. Also HBRelog opens a pipe to communicate with a HB plugin that is embedded in HBRelog.exe and is copied over to the plugins folder. This plugin has multiple purposes but mainly its responsible for providing an interface for other HB plugins/bots to allow them to control HBRelog and to monitor Honorbuddy to make sure it working.

How to report a bug

• Make sure you're using latest version
• Give a detailed description of the bug. Just saying it doesn't work might get you ignored.
• Attach a Log to your post. Log files are located in the Log folder inside same folder as the HBRelog.exe (make sure it doesn't contain any sensitive info. Your profile name is used in logs and if it contains Battlenet account name or character name then you will want to edit it)

Ooh exciting!

Ok I have to wonder, we already have arelog which is working fine but with some bugs. Why make a completely new relogger instead of simply helping perfect the one we already have and everyone already uses?

Because Raphus is busy with starwars.

Does the idle task actually go in-game, or does it idle out of game for x amount of time?

Arelog is close sourced and I had made this reloger before Arelog was release, though I did a complete redo recently and fixed it up when my internet connection was terrible (hourly disconnects), and Arelog couldn't login my character because of a letter that it was using in its name. And I needed wanted an excuse to play with WPF :P

Idle will close the wow window and wait for the specified duration, start wow and then log back in

[drhawks685]

Awesome, also does it loop infinitely? or at the end of each tack cycle will it stop?

Yes, it always loops infinitely. I can't think of a situation when this wouldn't be the desired effect but one could always place a 'Wait' task at the bottom of the task list with an insane long duration too

[drhawks685]

I wanted the infinite loop part. Thanks for this and answering my questions so quick. Donating tomorrow when i have some money in my paypal.
