Seriously, this always happens

When I am using Kick's Profiles over night, the bot literally always gets stuck on "Loading Tiles"... 8.5 hours of loading tiles... what can I do to prevent this shit from happening anymore?

attached are my logs.

Fresh install of HB and deleting HB and WoW Caches works for me. Do that once a day and it never seems to get screwed up.

 

I wrote a batch script that runs on Windows start-up

My solution to this problem was to write a custom batch script that clears the WoW and HB cache everytime I boot (which is daily) or you could just double click the .bat file.

So how to do this? In Windows Explorer where you are going to put this file, right mouse click and select "New > Text Document". Name it something like this: "CacheClear.bat". Yes you read right, you need to change the file extension to be ".bat" and not ".txt". There will usually be a Windows 'Rename' dialogue box saying "If you change a filename extension, the file might become unusable. Are you sure you want to change it?", click "Yes".

Then right mouse click the file and select "Edit".

You'll want to copy and paste the following code:

Code:

@IF /I NOT "%ECHO_ON%"=="Y" ECHO OFF

IF /I "%1"=="help" GOTO Help
IF /I "%1"=="-help" GOTO Help
IF /I "%1"=="/help" GOTO Help

del /s /q "C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Cache\*"
rmdir /s /q "C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Cache\"
mkdir "C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Cache"

del /s /q "C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Data\Cache\*"
rmdir /s /q "C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Data\Cache\"
mkdir "C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Data\Cache"

del /s /q "C:\Users\PC\Documents\HB\Cache\*"
rmdir /s /q "C:\Users\PC\Documents\HB\Cache\"
mkdir "C:\Users\PC\Documents\HB\Cache"

del /s /q "C:\ProgramData\Blizzard Entertainment\Battle.net\*"
rmdir /s /q "C:\ProgramData\Blizzard Entertainment\Battle.net\"
mkdir "C:\ProgramData\Blizzard Entertainment\Battle.net"

GOTO TheEnd

ECHO:
ECHO CacheClear.bat clears the WoW & Honorbuddy cache files for correct bot functioning
ECHO:
ECHO This batch file is specific to Windows x64
ECHO:
ECHO The following files are cleared:
ECHO: 
ECHO C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Cache
ECHO C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Data\Cache
ECHO C:\Users\PC\Documents\HB\Cache
ECHO C:\ProgramData\Blizzard Entertainment\Battle.net
ECHO:
ECHO The source code for batch is based on the following:
ECHO del /s /q c:\Temp\*
ECHO rmdir /s /q c:\Temp\
ECHO mkdir c:\Temp
:TheEnd

For me this code is really clear... but you are going to need to edit it according to your own PC settings.

Firstly figure out where your WoW Cache folder paths are like this:

C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Cache
C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Data\Cache
C:\ProgramData\Blizzard Entertainment\Battle.net\

Then figure out the folder path to your HB Cache folder. For me its this:

C:\Users\PC\Documents\HB\Cache

Then you will need to copy and paste your actual folder paths into the source code for the .bat file.

Then save it and double click it. You will see a Windows Command Line open up and the code run really quickly and then close.

I think this is the most elegant solution to this problem. Even better is to put it in the Windows startup folder. It does however assume your install paths stay the same so if you need to reinstall new versions of HB you will either need to keep the folder path the same all the time or edit the code each time.

 

Thanks for this.

 

My pleasure

 

kudos for this. ty
