How to use a proxy correctly

Recommended Posts

I apologize for the bad English I use Google translation :smile:
Many asked the question how to properly bind the proxy to the WoW client and I decided to write a small guide to answer all at once. Immediately make a reservation that I do not know whether this will also work for official servers, because long ago not botting them. But this will definitely work for earlier versions.
To bind a proxy server to a specific application, you need a special soft. There are several options, but I prefer the Proxyfier, because some others, if they can not connect to any particular hosts, will simply run them through your static ip address.
So we need the following tools:
Proxyfier
LinkShellExtention

First of all, you need to create several copies of the warcraft.

You can simply copy the client several times to separate folders. But who uses only SSD and wants to save space on the hard drive will use the LinkShellExtension to create symbolic links to the massive client data. So, we install all the necessary software and start

We copy all the folders and files (without "data") of the wow client to our newly created folder for the bot

Right-click on the "Data" and choose Pick Link Source from the drop-down menu. Then go to the new folder, click on the empty space and choose Symbolic Link

The result should look like this

Measuring the amount of memory used, we get only about 30 MB and it's absolutely working client

You might have noticed that in the client folder for the bot, the client launch file is called WoW1
You must do the same for each directory with the bot. That is, if you have 5 clients proxy, you must name the startup files accordingly: WoW1.exe, WoW2.exe, WoW3.exe, WoW4.exe, WoW5.exe and so on. Otherwise, no matter how many directories you create, each of them will work on the same proxy as the process will be called the same.

Now you can add your proxy to the Proxyfier. I will not separately describe how to do this since it should be clear. Then go to the proxification rule and make a binding as shown in the screenshot

In the application field, specify the path to the warcraft client in which the specific bot will work. Also this proxy is attached to the browser. I highly recommend registering the account through the proxy on which it will work in the future. But do not forget to untie the browser after registration so that there are no more intersections. In the action field, you must select the desired IP address.

And this is the result

In conclsion, even if the clients are proxy correctly, the first thing you need to pay attention to is the quality of the proxy. It is most important

Hello :) you have to buy them :) I do not want advertising here. There are a lot of hosters and this is just your choice

can you only do this with proxyfier? also is it 35$ for each wow I want to run?

There's several different clients that can route wow client traffic through proxies.

Simply google proxifier comparisons and you'll find several programs - both free and paid ones.

I can't seem to get this to work. Tried reinstalling WoW, allowing things through firewall, testing my authentication to the proxy, and using an entirely separate WoW installation from the directory I normally use. Not sure what else to do at this point. Note that WoW launches fine when not routed through proxifier.

Try this for the browser. Write will work in the browser or not

And remove the quotes from the name of the application, if you have written them yourself

I'm personally using windows 7. Maybe Windows 10's firewall is blocking proxifier or something like that?

127.0.0.1:40041    is this a socks5 proxy?.

This would be a socks5 proxy: 221.203.169.50:1080

 

127.0.0.1 is your localhost

It's frustrating to see so many people with problems on Windows 10. I do as previously mentioned run Windows 7 and haven't been able to get ahold of a machine with Windows 10 to test it myself there yet unfortunately...
