Ask TomBot - ( Posts: 612 - Threads: 12 )

here is a screeny

How are you implementing the AI Bot?

uploaded the alice-aiml-2.0-programe to server and installed it to the datebase (used its own db)

theres no hacking of vB code has far has i know has a friend did it for me, far has i know its just one php file in the forums root folder telling it where to post and how much to post.
and then just set it a user id up on the board.

1) pick a forum or forums it can post in.
2) pick how much it replys eg after every post or after every 2 posts and so on.
3) get rid of quotes which will confuse the bot.
4) random smilies at end of its post.
5) only replys to a post with over so many letters to stop it replying to just a smilie.

All the above is edited via 1 php file in root folder that is only 74 lines of code.

I tell you what i do i set the forum up so guest's can view it, the bot is called TomBot and my user's are love it lol.

forum is http://www.ultimate-forums.co.uk/for...s=&forumid=144

guest posting is set up now for that forum.

user the username guest to post with.

lol

Me: do you know a address to your website?

Bot: A human icon?
Quite honestly, I wouldn't worry myself about that.

Me: no your website

Bot: Are you serious? What about yours?

Me: this is mine what is yours

Bot: You don't say.

Me: oh trying be funny now

Bot: Right now?
Yeah that's right.
My brain contains more than 22,000 patterns, but not one that matches your last input.

LMFAO

There is most definitely hacking to vB code needed, definitely to newreply.php at least. :) I had a look at the website:

http://www.alicebot.org/

The files to be downloaded are here - I assume you are using the PHP version:

http://www.alicebot.org/downloads.html

The PHP version looks as though it works via HTML and Java as the interface... how did your admin integrate it so well into vB? :) Looks good. He or she should release it as a hack here... [hint]

I see how he could have done it... :) I will try it out...

Erwin: if you get it done i would be instreted in installing it.

I have all its brains installed in a folder in the root folder of the board :)

I have said about him adding it on here i ask him again later about it but im finding it fun lol, just edited its database abit so it now call's it self TomBot :)

theres a

include "tomstalkerbot.php";
indexpost($postid,1);

in newthread

yep just include "tomstalkerbot.php"; in both newreply and newthread

I've had a look at the source code of the PHP version. It's not that hard to integrate into vB, but would take time. You can use the same db as vB actually. The names of tables used are different.

For those interested in downloading it the latest PHP version Program E version 0.8:

http://easynews.dl.sourceforge.net/s...grame-v.08.zip

And the latest AIML files here version 2.0:

http://easynews.dl.sourceforge.net/s...0-programe.zip

:)

tomstalkerbot.php is a custom PHP file your admin made by combining the different PHP files in the package I linked to... ask your admin if he wants to save us all some time and post instructions on how he did it, and maybe post that file up as well. :)

we are useing the AIML files :) we used its own database to be save has i have a busy board and did not want to risk breaking it.

stop calling him my admin lol he is a friend of mine :p im the owner of the site.

erm i have to ask him tonight about it has posting the file would give away just how its done.

plus it says

<?php
// NOT FOR RELEASE TO VBULLETIN.ORG CARL :P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P:P

in the file but i try getting it out of him for you all ;)

in new reply i see:

indexpost($postid,0);
include "tomstalkerbot.php";

newthread i see:

include "tomstalkerbot.php";
indexpost($postid,1);

so im guessing thats the only edits to the vb files and the rest is run from tomstalkerbot.php

i also know that the php file was made from new has he said it would be faster to start from new then to try and edit things and like i say its only 74 lines

Good News:

Talk with my friend he is going to clean up the code abit tonight and then give it me to post on here.

I would love to see this code posted! It would make an excellent feature for my forums! :)

it be getting posted later tonight its just going be cleaned up abit.

Excellent news :)

I have just started to make the txt file to say how to install it, im new to this type of thing so i will get my friend to check it over first tonight after all he made this hack :)

very cool, i'll install it.

I have the Txt file made to tell you how to install it, friend has just got to clean code up abit.

should i post it in beta forum of in the full forum because i have it installed on a live busy board and it works.

Best try beta until people have tested it out ok!

oopsy already posted it in Full Releases
