Python OpenCV World of Warcraft Fishing Bot Tutorial Part 1: Image Capture

[@kellyc-dnd]

Great idea, I am following along and writing the code with you as I would like to play around with a BOT in world of warcraft as well. Fun Fun!😊

Hello i have the code exactly the same but it opens infinite windows one after another any suggestions ? Regards.

[@pgamebot]

Most likely you are assigning a different name to each window in the loop, so it doesn't update that window but instead keeps creating new ones. You can add a destroy all windows command to see if that helps as well (in the loop), although that would affect performance long term so debugging would be better.

@@pgamebot I have discovered that it is due to this line of code key = cv.waitKey(1) if I change it for this key = cv.waitKey(0) I will only open one window but not print the FPS and if i put back 1 i get multiple windows in loop.

[@pgamebot]

There's a bug somewhere in there, you can pull my code from the git to confirm it works on your system as well.

[@brolitonsyan1736]

@@pgamebot I have the code you have uploaded to git but I still have this bug, what can it be due to?

[@brolitonsyan1736]

it is already solved it was because I had changed the original screen by dragging with the mouse. apparently if you drag the original screen to another position it generates this loop of screens. rookie mistake

[@ILawrance]

And does it is technically undetectable?

[@pgamebot]

Should be as much as possible, as this method does not interact with the WoW application, but sends instructions to the OS (like moving the mouse and keystrokes).

Hello i like your tuto and i Hope you will continue and i wish you the best Luck , Can you pls make a tuto how to use the Map(mesh) to go to a specific point in the Map... Ty

[@pgamebot]

I'm interested in doing localization and path-finding AI, but not using the map / mesh. I am thinking about how to do this using only the computer vision, just like a human would. Using the map / mesh is a bit of a hack, since it is processing the data totally different than a human.

Wow great first session. I'm having that multiple screen issue you first got where it opens a new screen every 1ms and i'm not sure why. I saved and closed MS Code and reopened it thinking something was maybe cached but even your code does it to me. Any thoughts?

[@pgamebot]

I'm not sure, check out my newer tutorial using MSS library, I think that tutorial is a lot better for the screen capture implementation than this one, which was done a bit earlier. Make sure your loop is updating the current window and not spawning new windows, make sure the name of the window is the same!

[@xSensu]

@@pgamebot Thank You! I figured out the issue and forgot to update my post. I will check out the newer version of it. I really enjoy how you teach in these videos. Keep up the amazing work.

[@pgamebot]

nin online looks cool, never played it, I will check it out

i think opencv is giving prob to python 3.11

[@pgamebot]

This tutorial was done with 3.10.8.

You are so quiet! I had to turn my volume to 150%

Sorry about that, thanks for the feedback
