Hi Miqo and everyone.

Before I came here to ask for help I looked up under the help and discussion forums and I have tried every possible thing I found or could do on my own. But no luck. I need your help!

I’m trying to play Chocobo Racing using bot. But I’m experiencing a lot of game lag and long 5-15sec in game screen freezes.

Before I mention they things I tried. My pc specs are,

AMD 8150 8core. 6g ram. 64bit. GTX 780ti. windows 7. microsoft security essential, antivirus. No overclocks (as far as I know). I run game at lowest settings, always “standard desktop” 1920 x1080 resolution, window borderless.

I have always skype on. 2 FFXIV clients running as directx9. web watching movies/videos. And occasionally when I need random fxiv things like guildwork for hunts, and any voice chat requests when joining a farm group, raids, fun.

With all this I mentioned running. My temperatures usually iddle? at 42-46 and highest 56-60 So I don’t think I’m over stressing. I googled some forums about gpu, etc temps and they said up to 80 is ok and that was for gtx650

Here are some of the things I tried. Checked my antivirus, whitelisted miqobot and tried with or without. Read forums post and tried process monitor but I didn’t see really see anything other then Explorer.EXE, MsMpEng.exe, crss.exe and miqobot_v1.2.3.exe

I run my girlfriends ffxiv client in directx9 because the current bot im using doesnt support directx11. So running one directx9 and trying out miqobot directx11. I have tried so many combinations toning performance high and at lowest. Running directx9 client at 36fps and have enabled Limit frame rate when client is inactive, Limit FPS when away from keyboard, and this makes that fps drop to 15fps. And for miqobot I made 2 test race runs running on all frame rate options. I have also closed down every single thing I mention and only run ffxiv direct11 and miqobot, only. But i still get the same issues alot of random lag and long in game screen freezes that make bot spam question cant find npc and stops bot.

And its just the directx11 ffxiv client and miqobot. other ffxiv client and bot runs well, every time.

I don’t know what to do. Yesterday i was at it all day at it tring to fix it. I went to bed last night at 4am tweaking stuff up. first 2runs were running “ok” not so much lag/freezes so I went to bed. Checked back in the morning around 10AM and bots only done 8 races and i see character red dc icon n game back and forth lag, in game freezes but won’t get disconnected XD

Please help. I’m willing to do teamviewer, screenshots or find any other information you need in order to find the root cause of this problems.

Long post. I also wanted to post this alot earlier but I wanted to put as much detail. Then i saw the time and i had to rush for family arrangements, good friday day.

Thank you for taking the time to read it.

Each antivirus behaves differently. It may actually scan only the running executables while ignoring downloads. It may be not an antivirus exactly but something else. Anyway, there’s definitely an external program involved.

There’s a tool called Process Monitor: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/processmonitor.aspx
It can show you literally everything that happens on your computer, including info about who made that happen. It may look like a lot of chaos at first, but it’s very easy to setup. From the Menu Bar on top, select Filter -> Filter… (or press Ctrl+L). In this case we would need a filter like this:

Path contains miqobot_v1.2.3.exe then Include

Press Add, then Apply, and look carefully at Process Name column. You should see Exporer.exe, svchost.exe – those are ok. Watch for something suspicious accessing Miqobot’s EXE after you close it.
Let us know what you find, and we’ll think what to do next

Im going to keep looking but its really weird… I dont think its my antivirus because then it would delete the program right after I downloaded it, not after I closed it for the first time, also the other weird thing is that when I go to redownload it it says I dont have permission to download it to wherever the last download location was so I have to download it to a new spot on my computer and move all the files over to that new spot for it to work for the one use.

Most likely, it’s your antivirus being overly paranoid. Try adding Miqobot application to whitelist
