    Default Back to RS... fill me in?

    Hey everyone.

    I pretty much stopped doing anything and everything with RS since the very first bot-nuke-day. This is when Reflection was at its peak along with the infamous bot "RS Buddy."

    ...I'm not sure how long it's been, but it's been long enough that I forgot everything. I would like you guys to quickly bring me up to speed on the RS news.

    More precisely, I would like to know about both major RS changes and major plot points in RS botting history since the very first bot-nuke-day (as I hear a second one is approaching).

    I COULD go through the RS "News" page - under 'game updates' but I'm hoping you guys will list things so I can simply research the things that catch my eyes.

    Some of the things I know I want to hear about include:

    the latest reflection (which I thought doesn't work), java bots, smart, injection, gl hooks, the big names of bots (ie - SRL , rsbuddy, rsbot,) but the current ones - im pretty sure some are dead....

    Anyway thank you all. Hopefully I'll see some familiar faces around here.

    Latest reflection is not really reflection but is Open GL and is being worked on by Brandon. And well, bad time to come back to RS if you intend to bot (as i assume, since you are here) as Bottany Bay (a place where bots are banned) and a new Botwatch software has been implemented yesterday. So that is pretty much what has happen. After the first bot nuke, bots came back and it lasted till about now. Getting rid of them is still in progress I guess, only time will tell

    I don't know much in they way of reflection but it is still alive. Brandon (and others) have made lots of progress in the area of gl hooking [http://villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=88242], and runescape has just implemented a new method of tracking bots so most of us are waiting a week or so to see how things pan out, although our scripts still work.
    Oh and smart is on version 8.0

    well i actually simply wanted to enjoy rs after its so called new combat system is out. i want to see how it affects the game and botting. to me any game worth playing eventually all leads back to pvp....its a crucial change. will there still be pures? what will happen to my 1 def from so many years ago??????? hmm only time will tell... does anyone know when the new combat system is out?

    botbay isnt targeted at color bots. they want to go after injection/ code tamperers first at the least. srl should be ok. the worst that can happen is that well have to redo all functions . and even that wont happen. srl will never die not too worried about it.

    Yea the Eoc is gonna ccompletely turn the aspect of combat upside down so they want to make sure they get it right. Originally they wanted it to be in September i belive but when they released the beta and started getting feedback from the community they realised there was a lot of things that needed work yet, so the date keeps getting pushed back. AFAIK another date hasnt been annouced.

    And the botany bay is intended for all bots but like you said SRL has an advantage with the most human-like functions and such.

    I wouldn't say that tho, as the bot watch was implemented to target all bots. At the moment scripts still work, but if Jagex actually picks up on us, we would be warned and then banned.

    Botwatch was created especially to target RiD and Simba as stated on the livestream. We use the most primitive bots, which only remain undetectable because we do not inject or tamper with code, which is much more detectable, but also more sophisticated.

    This update aims to detect patterns, not the code tampering of the other kinds of bots, which means the only thing stopping us from becoming vastly inferior is the upcoming bot nuke and some very skilled coders.

    Good thing we randomize everything, right?
    Those mass injection bots that follow the exact same tile every time? Sucks to be them...

    Well, they may also have applied some tolerance for their bot watch, so not sure if they will pick up on our movements as well :S
