    How do i get started on botting? ( i can code on C)

    Hi everyone, i really like coding, and gaming, so why not to try botting? xD
    But i dont know where to start...
    Is there any guide explaining what is a bot, how does it work, how to find offsets, how to use them, etc?

    PS: I´ll use the game Forsaken Worlds to practice botting

    PS2: To begin i´d like to do something very simple like an auto-potion bot.

    A bot, most prominently in the first-person shooter types (FPS), is a type of weak AI expert system software which for each instance of the program controls a player in deathmatch, team deathmatch and/or cooperative human player. Computer bots may play against other bots and/or human players in unison, either over the Internet, on a LAN or in a local session. Features and intelligence of bots may vary greatly, especially with community created content. Advanced bots feature machine learning for dynamic learning of patterns of the opponent as well as dynamic learning of previously unknown maps – whereas more trivial bots may rely completely on lists of waypoints created for each map by the developer, limiting the bot to play only maps with said waypoints. Bots are also currently against the rules of all of the main MMORPGs.

    Any bots are working regarding your algorithms.
    Main bot concepts are:
    Pixel reading - you scan screen and then e.g. send mouse click to the screen point
    Read/write memory - your app read information from client memory and then e.g. writes modified data to memory
    Key/mouse click sending
    Packet bot - you examine game client protocol level and then create a program with ability to send correct packets direct to the server (aka outgame bot)

    Please check related subforum or use search function. We have collection of different guides which covers most aspects of memory manipulation

    Not a good chose, 'coz FW has protection against debugging. But generally, FW is suitable for extensive practice

    It's a good beginning

    Also you could start from creating a simple game radar - read char information (HP, MP etc). All necessary data for FW already posted
