Hack By: Tim (eXtremeTim) Yarbrough
Website: www.extremechatforums.com
Original: by: C-birch
Credits: Rapid Gaming (for porting it to vb3)

What This Hack Does.

This hack add a userlike bot to your forums. You can set which forum he will post in and how often he will reply to poeples posts. He will try and build his replies off the text that they posted. This bot will learn overtime slowly from your users posts. I will also be seeing about porting over the teachbot soon.

Some New Features
acp controlled Rate Of Post
ability to post as bot and he will not reply
post count will not go up in forums where post counts are turned off
a few options to turn off and on a few things including the script itself.
Some other stuff i just cant remember

Fixed in 2.0.2:
Go advanced feature works for quick reply.
Bot will no longer reply when post is stopped becuase of an error. (aka floodlimit, to many images, ect)

Fixed in 2.0.1:
Fixed a few minor problems including using the wrong variable in the if statement for the random smilie check.
fixed the install.txt problem used a find code that was from one of my modifications sorry about that.

Upgrading From v2.0.1 Instructions:
These are in the v202 upgrade file

Upgrading From v2.0.0 Instructions:
To upgrade from v2.0 just make your changes to the new _talkerbot.php file and replace the old v2.0 one.


Upgrading From v1 Instructions:
Just use the install.txt and do the forum.php in the acp directory edits.
Add the new phrase and run the query.


Todo List:
Move all settings to acp settings page
fix the floodcheck problem of bot still replying when users post is not made.
Clean up the code more
Figure out more stuff todo.

Can you slow it down? It would be better for posts from the bot to appear a few minutes after someones post. I understand you can control the rate of replies... but can you control it so it doesnt reply immediatley?

I have a problem when i run the botloader i get this error Loading startup.xml
could not open XML input, i think it has to do with the root dir thing in the dbprefrences but i dont know what the format is like im not sure how to set it up ($rootdir="//web//sites//extremechatforums.com//public_html//www//forum//alice//aiml/"
i mean what format does that site use i dont get it

[krash123]

Go into the vbulletin admin cp, open "Import & Maintenance" and click "View PHP info".
By the variable "DOCUMENT_ROOT" will be the root directory, which you will have to add "forums/alice/aiml/" or whatever your structure is to it.
If you are running on a windows server though, it will be in a different format, such as the drive letter followed by the sub-directories.

[Daremo]

I still can't get the bot to post anything I've installed twice now.

Any ideas about how to troubleshoot?

Thanks

[blueuniverse]

I've been looking over the aiml files here and they've all been updated since the original version of the hack and I was wondering if I'd be able to load some of these in (the green ones that is) to make the bot a bit more clever. I've seen this asked throughout the thread but no answer has actually been given.

Hi @ll,

after switching to php 5.0.4 i have some Problems with my Bot.

PHP Notice:  Undefined index:  value in /srv/www/htdocs/web1/html/alice/src/respond.php on line 161
PHP Notice:  Undefined variable: curpmsize in /srv/www/htdocs/web1/html/alice/src/graphnew.php on line 199

PHP Notice:  Undefined index:  attributes in /srv/www/htdocs/web1/html/alice/src/util.php on line 495

Does somebody know, if the Bot hav problems with php5 or is there something else wrong ?

th@nks and gr33tz

[krash123]

Oh yes, by all means blue, none of those will actually do any harm to the bot, though some do need to be modified a bit so yours doesn't pretend to be alice. I've been using any additional aiml I could find since the old vb2 bot.

I was having similar problems with a few of my scripts while I was using php5, don't think I had any with the bot though.

[blueuniverse]

Cool. Do you reckon all those listed as green should have no problems or is it best to give those a look through to check everything?

I tried to install but it is not working and now when i try and make a new forum it comes up with this error message:

Database error in vBulletin 3.0.7:

Invalid SQL:
### INSERT QUERY GENERATED BY fetch_query_sql() ###
INSERT INTO forum
(title, description, fhbanner, fhbannerlink, fhmessage, link, displayorder, daysprune, parentid, mimicbotrop, newpostemail, newthreademail, styleid, password, options)

mysql error: Unknown column 'mimicbotrop' in 'field list'

mysql error number: 1054

PLEASE CAN SOMEONE HELP ME

[krash123]

Yeah, should be fine, you might want to take a quick glance if you just want to make sure or something.

Michael: It appears you forgot to run the query at the top of the install file;

ALTER TABLE `forum` ADD `mimicbotrop` INT( 5 ) DEFAULT '0' NOT NULL ;
