Discord bot and client script for OCR capturing MVP timestamps in Maplestory Reboot server. Requires Python3.5+ and Tesseract installed
Tesseract - When you specify which folder you are downloading to, copy that into the .env file under TESSERACT_PATH
Python3.5+ - Needed to run the bot!
Cygwin - Needed to run the script to build everything!
OPTIONAL MouseLocator - Needed (for now) to specify coordinates of the external chat box
- Clone or download me!
- Fill out the .env file in the folder
- Start MapleStory
- Open a Command Prompt with admin privileges and navigate to the folder location
- Run the command
bash run.shand leave MapleStory on main focus (preferably with the chat box in front of a black background - To kill the program, go back to the Command Prompt and press Ctrl+C
The main body is located here and will screenshot and fire off a discord check every 30 seconds to parse for images.
The discord bot checks the announcement queue every 30 seconds. When there are announcements it will fire the announcement off to the discord server and then move the announcement over to a garbage pile so that future image parses can check against the garbage pile for duplicate matches. The garbage pile is cleaned up every 15 minutes.
CURRENTLY UNTRAINED. Tesseract/OpenCV image parsing module. Will check for any screenshots in the specified folder and parse them. The requirements for a successful push to the announcement queue are currently:
- 'mvp' or 'MVP'
- 'cc<number>' or 'ch<number>'
- 'xx:<number>'
Things to improve via training for later:
- Parsing names
- Better accuracy for character recognition ('n' and 'h', 'I' and 'l', etc)
- A GUI for user input for variables
- Expand on grammar for other servers (exclude people buying MVPs)
You may run into some problems. That's expected because nobody programs on Windows! Here are a few and what to do:
pytesseract.pytesseract.TesseractNotFoundError: tesseract is not installed or it's not in your PATH means your path to Tesseract is incorrect. Double check its location and copy the string correctly!
You will likely see something like run.sh: line 4: /your/path/to/Python/python: Permission denied. If you do it's because Windows has its own special Python aliases. Please refer to this StackOverflow solution for instructions on how to disable them.
