      Thanks for the quick response I hope I didn't come off as demanding or complaining I was just curious if such thing was offered. Im sure I will go ahead and buy the bundle seeing that kara and soon to be ulduar will be added, keep up the good work your profiles are the only ones I trust to work right out of the box. Also cant wait for the auto loader.

      No, you didn't. I already had plans to implement a scheduler, but I also wanted to get that package out of the door. That is why I decided to implement it in a following step. Through demand I then realized I needed to up the priority a bit and that is why I am working on it today.

      Just an FYI, I didn't see that you had to use Quest Bot to start this. Might want to put that in your instructions on the top page. Will let you know what I find after I just purchased the bundle.

      You should add the ability to skip bosses, for example: Dreamwalker in ICC. Can't do it unless you have a good healing class or set of spells. You can skip her entirely. It stops and keeps trying to whack her out no matter what.

      I already have an open task to make the plugin switch to the QuestBot if a raid profile is loaded and another bot is active. But to be fair, on every product page and in every support thread it says under "Tipps" that you should use the QuestBot for that profile.

      Valithria is not done by all classes, but only those where (from my tests) I could see it was beatable. It even checks for a druid talent that might start the encounter by accident. I do however want to improve the management of this encounter by offering a specific option to skip it as well as a method of using a secondary healing spec in case it exists. If you have specific issues with the fight, i would like to ask you to post a log to the Icecrown Citadel support thread as this is a profile issue, not a plugin issue. :) But thank you for taking the time to report this. I appreciate it.

      My testers are now getting their hands on the "Studio Planner", the currently most requested feature in the Studio Companion that will allow you to chain-run raids.

      It is very simple to setup. You can define a couple of raids to run for your character and with a press of the "Start Run" button, the bot begins his work.

      [​IMG]

      Configuring the whole thing is easy as pie. Switch on the profiles you want to run and if you are so inclined, put them in a specific order.

      [​IMG]

      If you want to run the whole thing with multiple characters, then simply create tasks for those characters and use the helper profile to let HBRelog start the run for you.
      Studio Companion will tell HBRelog when its done and ready for the next run, so set the time limit high enough.

      [​IMG]

      This is still only the first pass. In the future I would like the Studio Planner to consider direct travel from dungeon to dungeon, but for now he will simply run one profile after the next to get you going. :)
      I can implement a more advanced technique at a later point in time. Right now time is a bit of a factor. You also need to retrieve a list of products before you can activate raids for the first time.

      [SIZE=+1]New Feature: Studio Planner[/SIZE]

      Alright! Here it is. :) I just submitted the update for approval that includes the "Studio Planner" a new feature in the Studio Companion that enables you to chain run raids. I hope it is a solid foundation for even more awesome things to come. Right now you can start it through the "Start Run" button as seen on the screen or through a profile which will be generated by the Studio Companion. Its location is displayed on the HBRelog tab.

      You can easily stop the run at any time. The plugin will figure out which raids it should still go to when you continue.

      [SIZE=+1]New Feature: Mesh Download Announcements[/SIZE]

      On a regular basis I get bug reports from people claiming the bot didn't do anything and just stood there. More often than not I take a look at the log and see that the bot was loading and/or downloading meshes. This process just takes a bit of time. The loading process itself is not visible on normal log level, but with the Travel Manager requiring regular mesh loads I decided to display that information on screen so you know that something is going on. It is just an overlay and as soon as the bot is done loading it disappears. You can of course disable it permanently in the plugin options.

      [SIZE=+1]Many Bugfixes[/SIZE]

      Every new software has bugs, every old software does too, but with new software we tend to fix what we can. So it has been done in this case. I got many reports from users and my beta testers and I fixed what I could. If you find anything new, please post a log with a problem description and I will see how I can remedy the situation.

      Unsure if this is the place to report it, but here goes:

      When travelling frm Shattrah to Isle of Quel'Danas via the portal (in Shattrah), the bot cannot take the portal if it's mounted and will dance around it (in my case, for hours!) looking very suspiciously like a bot....so somehow, there needs to be an option to unmount or something. :)

      There are two possible solutions to this. I will try the simpler one and hope it works, because it is an easy XML adjustment. The dismount itself is btw already in the profile. Two different dismounts to be exact. :)

      The cumbersome workaround (my other option) would be to let the bot fly to a spot outside of the inner Shattrath dome and then let it run on foot to the portal. Although I already know a few people that will complain about a flight-capable character running around being suspicious. Flightor (the HB module responsible for any flight-related movement) does not really like indoor flying and often shows severe malfunctions. I often notice this in the Drag in Orgrimmar.

      Really interested in buying your retro pack but it seems that the navigation isn't working for me. I have flying unlocked in draenor and every time the bot goes to navigate there it just flies out into the ocean and dies. I will attach a log the next time it returns to my garrison if you need.

      Edit: Question: is there a way that I can make it sell everything that my character can't use? I don't see any options under the vendor menu. I.E sell all tier that can't be used by class and if I am a druid only keep leather?

      Edit 2: The navigation only seems to happen some of the time, first two times it hearthed it flew off into the ocean, third time it worked properly.

      That is actually the default setting for all equipment that is "bind on pickup". If something is bind on pickup and you can wear it (like in your case leather armor) then the bot keeps that item by default. If it is for example a plate chest piece, the default would be to sell it. Unless of course it was bind on equip. Then it would be kept for you to put up on the auction house.

      Of course you can also change options for complete categories by using the Bulk Action Dropdown at the top of each page:

      [​IMG]

      And don't forget that each expansion also has a world drop window where you can configure more common items that might drop in various raids like world drop rare and epic items.

      Mmmh, I really would need a log to check it out. There are things I print to the log that are not displayed with the normal log settings and it would allow me to take a look at your travel routes. But I know that there are currently navigational issues with flying in Draenor. These are most likely not caused by the plugin. For example the bot doesn't seem to know right now where he can't fly, because of Exhaustion.

      For the best results I recommend setting the Hearthstone at the faction shrine in Pandaria.
      There is a special logic where the travel manager uses the Hearthstone offensively for travel when it is set there, because of all the portals.

      Ah I totally missed this section where you could specify for every item, I just assumed it would be under the options tab. Thank you for your response :). Seems that the draenor flight issue resolved itself as the bot has been running smooth after the first two

      Would it be possible to force a vendor run in between every raid to make sure that you have the max bag space available?

      At the end of each raid the bot calls a "Home is where your heart(h) is" profile. This profile is designed to get you back home and then does sell items according to your settings and it repairs. If you do run raids in a chain (configured in the Studio Planner) it will then start the next raid if necessary.

      In a future version I will change that so that he does not necessarily go home, but simply out of the dungeon and to the next vendor. But for now the aforementioned behavior will have to do. :)

      A lot of the time the bot just goes straight on to the next raid, I queued every raid in the order listed in the bot without modifying it at all, it didn't vendor at all after ToTC, or Hyjal that I noticed, it just went to ashran and kept going. Having to manually remove things from my inventory because even with all 30 slot bags it is getting full

      View attachment 6844 2015-10-04 11.46.txt

      here is the log, the bot also got stuck, idk for how long I went out to dinner and came back to it stuck dead
