Talk:AGC

It's a wiki

It's a wiki about Shadowbane. AGC is most definately about Shadowbane and is, in fact, one of the most widely use third-party programs available for it.

still aient right.

So whats the purpose of giving a download link then?

I'm honored..

To see it listed here. I haven't played shadowbane in ages, anyone know if it still used as of 5/26/2007? Version 3 did have support for reading memory from shadowbane and any thing you could possibly think of in VB Script, but I scrapped it because I thought malicous people would create some nasty scripts and try to distribute it with AGC. The last Beta version (still available on the original website I think) you can actually set which process you want to try to macro in by manually editing the settings file (INI).

It's used

Just about everyone that macros uses it. Quite a popular macro proggie.

Tutorial?

It's not very self-explanatory, would anyone mind posting a quick tutorial?

Tutorial Added

Anyone interested in me updating the program?

I know I, and everyone in my guild, would love to see it updated. --Halethrain 23:22, 10 Aug 2007 (EDT)

Version 6.0 (Under development)

I have a ton of new ideas to add, and I'm interested in any input available. I can't promise everything, but I'll do my best.

This was passed along to me: "got an idea, the bandwidth sucks for me over here for surfing the net but please Hale can you pass this. When it list the shadowbane clients, can it label with an A, B, or C. Anything that makes it easier to determine which is which instead of seeing Shadowbane - 230572035 after logging in/out of the accts. Get what i mean?"

In addition, being able to rename the processes would be a really nice feature --Halethrain 04:25, 3 Sep 2007 (EDT)

Ok, how does this sound, I'll rename the Shadowbane Window to "SB - <charactername>", this is what is visible when you alt-tab.

I plan on having two version of AGC, Free & Registered. The Free version will do everything the current beta does, and the Registered will do way more. To support this community, anyone who suggests to me new a feature to add, that I implement, will get a free Registered copy. (The Registered copy will be very inexpensive anyway). --Zod

having it rename to character sounds fine to me. Anything that makes it easier to see which process is which. I don't think the registered version will work at all though. One person will buy it, throw it up on his own host and that's the end of that. --Halethrain 18:34, 3 Sep 2007 (EDT)

Lol, as a developer and a user, I am aware of that situation and already have it remedied. --Zod

I have a suggestion. Is there someway to enable a window that is stuck in the foreground that shows what each SB character is targeting? With the removal of /target in the latest edition of SB it makes this feature invaluable. If we had a window that shows what our different characters are targeting we could use a macro button to scroll through potential targets (next target button) without alt-tabbing and switching back and forth to select a new target. --greenman101

Suggestion for the next AGC

Hey, gotta say I love the program. I use it for all my macroing. There are a couple things I'd like to see added/improved on for the next version though. I'm sure you've heard this before, but the mouse down/mouse up commands, for dragging items and such, I'd like to see that mastered, so it works and I don't have to use a second (less able) macro program just for drag/drop. Another feature you could that would be useful, is a small pop up window off of the main program that has a list of all the sb.exe's that are open, and when clicked on it brings you to that window, instead of having to alt tab threw all of them. There is already a program out there for shadowbane that does this, however it has some bugs. I'm not sure why but whenever its used for more than 5 minutes, it causes CPU usages of the SB.exe's to skyrocket and inevitably freeze the game. I can send you the source code for that if you'd like to examine it, try and fix any problems, and implement it into 6.0. another useful feature, especially with the for mentioned tabbing one, would be to be able to rename the sb.exe processes to a name of our choosing. I also have a source code for that if you'd like. finally, because I have found this such a useful and powerful macroing program, I think you should widen your clientele by adding a feature that lets you select the process you wish to attach the macro to. This will have the obvious advantage of being able to use it in other games, but also picture this: Say whenever you get on the computer, you check your Yahoo mail, Myspace, Facebook, blog, and whatever else. Going to each website and logging in 100 times can be time consuming and annoying. with your process based macroing, we could have Firefox automatically load our web pages in separate windows and automatically log us in. and maybe a separate character/macro list could be saved for the processes you use it for (so shadowbane macros don't get jumbled in with browser macros/other program macros). if I think of anything else, I'll be sure to post it. if you want to contact me about those source codes, feel free to e-mail me.([email protected])--Newlance 16:00, 21 February 2009 (EST)
