Homebrew Auto-Leveling Script

[Delta Omega X]

I've spent a few hours over the past week programming an auto-battle macro.
This has made leveling characters less minotinous, as the process is repetitive for each new class your party attains throughout the game once blessed by a new crystal.

This script can typically run for hours anywhere on the first continent in the game without a party dying. All the player needs to do is stock their inventory with potions & hi-potions prior to running to guarantee satisfaction.

A Brief Description of What this does:
Maps common tasks to keyboard shortcuts.
Esc - Kill the script if you're tired of it running
E - Wander left & right until a battle starts
F - All Fight (during battle)
Space - Press confirm a bunch
I - Heal the entire party with potions (outside of battle)
ALT+CTRL+A - Auto Wander|Battle|Heal indefinitely until the script is killed.

Run using free AutoHotkey application.

Big Thanks to ichimaru-gin for the tip on using Guard 5 times to level up jobs.

Anyway, I hope someone else finds use from this.
Great Community here.

The Alt+Ctrl+A function only makes Luneth walk left and right until a battle starts. Nothing else happens.

Yea you kind of have to do some editing to the script yourself to get it to work right. I've gotten to work after some adjustments.

Adjust the timers. Mine are probably just set ridiculously long to account for excessive time it takes to begin random encounters.

You can also use macromaker

Have one for ppsspp version?

I haven't used a script before, so I just run the script, press Alt+Ctrl+A and it will do all the battling, healing etc without me having to monitor it or press anything else ?(until i want to stop)

And is there a certain location I must move the download/text file in order to run it effectively?

Thanks :)

There are assumptions in place (as noted in the script's notes).
This Script assumes The following for Keybindings, they may be configured at FF3 application launcher
< ^ > v Arrow keys are set to Keyboard Default
Select (x), Cancel (w), Menu(d), Page(a)
Item menu Slot 1 is filled with either potions or high-potions

This tool was more of a passion project for anyone out there familiar with Autohotkey macros.
I'm not "supporting" the script as if it were a Github repo, so either use at your own discretion or try to follow along with the commands in order to learn how to edit the code.

What did you do to make it work? Most of it works fine except guarding for all. Not sure what im missing but it looks like it should be working.

I think I figured it out, didnt notice the ;s

Never used script before having a little trouble I copy pasted it to note pad and ran it like research says put it goes left and right but in battle it just goes down the menu does not block / guard or attack is there something I need to change?

[Delta Omega X]

Jasonc,
Which function are you using?
Pressing ALT+CTRL+A should be guarding automatically.
If you're using ALT+E, it may only be wandering.
Each of these button macros achieves a specific task.

Ok I got it to work didnt change the default keys but one one key u say change page to A I think it was but I don't have page option

[Tcharr]

I know this is a couple years late, but maybe someone will benefit (like a Steam Achievement hunter ;)). I targeted the lower arrow at the right of the encounter menu. It is not completely opaque, so I searched for a small range of colors in a small square of pixels.

Resolution was 1920x1080

[Tcharr]

Here is what I am currently working with for job leveling in the Altar Cave near the healing pool. Resolution is 1920x1080 windowed, not full screen.

#NoEnv  ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
; #Warn  ; Enable warnings to assist with detecting common errors.
;SendMode Input  ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.
;SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir%  ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.
#p::Pause ; Pressing Win+P once will pause the script. Pressing it again will unpause.

; This Script assumes The following for Keybindings, they may be configured at FF3 application launcher
;< ^ > v Arrow keys are set to WASD

Sorry to rain on your parade but as said earlier in this thread. You can do that with MacroRecorder in 10 to 20 minutes (depending on complexity you want)

[Tcharr]

AHK is free, and the free version of Macro Recorder is very limited. Besides, working the algorithms is half the fun. ;)
