Is it safe to use #19

Open MegalithOfficial opened 2 years ago

MegalithOfficial commented 2 years ago

Im not mentioning about ban thinks. Does it safe to use?

DefaultO commented 2 years ago

@MegalithOffical. No. It will get you banned for using third-party apps. At least the multiboxing functionality. Sending clicks to the Growtopia window doesn't get you banned yet.

No i mean does my account will get stolen by this app ?

No. It won't steal your account. It is clean.

But I don't recommend using it since it is heavily outdated (last updated 4 years ago) and basically relies on hardcoded window coordinates. The multiboxing is detected and will get you banned. You can do better than that.

If you know how to code I can tell you how to make something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXNIfk_3oaw After being under my wing you will be able to get information out of memory from the world data. Which allows you to code a bot that can move around the world. Move to blocks (or trees) to break. And whatever you would love to code. I also hint you towards coding your own World2Screen function for this game so that you don't have to hardcode coordinates as this project does.

Yeah, no longer works. Written before all the fancy new methods came out. It was plenty effective back in the days in my private magplant worlds, 100k gems/day was nice.

100k gems are barely anything if you did run multiple accounts for it. Though the old days were different times. 1 Diamond Lock every two days was a lot. (To compare the times: Golden Angel wings were 40DL at that time, now they are over 800)

I mean I would have contributed to the gtautofarmer after having been through the years with ma and @TheLeftExit. I just didn't know if you were active, so pull requests were questionable to me. I also wouldn't have gone for WinForms. It is great but way more limiting than WPF. Also for a bot that only has to punch, I would even go for a console application and implement an overlay instead, either only outputting your details, or even having user controls implemented.

Nonetheless. Your project was the first C# based automation I stumbled upon. And many people pasted your iconic Forms layout (the process grid being a dead giveaway for these pastes) since then.

Multiboxing nowadays is pretty much risky if you don't hook yourself into everything they send to the server on login. And mask the IP of the game client (you can have 2 accounts running per IP, maybe even only 1 nowadays). Which just isn't possible for a free tool to cover. As the most basic way would be to redirect/tunnel the traffic to a proxy server. You also don't know what they are checking for server-sided which makes them still catch people to this day running bot farms.

i can confirm that, in my fork i just completely removed multiboxing and use my own hardcoded coords. but it was pretty fast and quick to setup

DefaultO commented 1 year ago

The problem I see nowadays with the game is that it gets protected using VMProtect now.

So coding a bot like the one I have is impossible for most of you. Using Cheat Engine for the most part is still the same. But dragging the Growtopia executable into IDA won't help you anymore without unpacking and devirtualizing the game binary first.

@DefaultO https://github.com/DefaultO It's interesting to hear that were copycat projects, I didn't know that.

WPF sure is better, but for a project of this scope it didn't matter, it was only meant for personal use anyway. I was still like 16 back when I made it as my first real C# project, and now I'm concidentally working with C# professionally (who would've thought huh).
