New Guy 4 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 So it's been a while since I have been using ubot for anything. Just brushing up on things and looking around the forum. Ubot 5 looks great but when I look at all the recent plugins etc for sale and a lot of the threads with actual working products it looks like a lot of people are using Ubot 4 still. Is Ubot 5 not stable enough for commercial purposes yet? Is Ubot 4 even still being supported/updated? Sorry for my cluelessness , just trying to get back up to speed with things before I start creating any new programs. Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve 30 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Yes, a lot of us are still are using v4. As far as v4 still being updated, I don't think so -- but it can be stable for the most part. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Walter1 8 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 V4 here and i think everyone else accept the new guys who only had the option to download v5... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
runsoftware 14 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 v4 all the way bruh Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bliss 194 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Im still using V4 for production software. V5 crashes on most my big V4 bots still . I did make a small voter bot the other week after the last update of V5 and it did run well (without crashing) for a few weeks but it was a small bot. Ubot V5 did crash also a few times whilst making it, even though it was sitting there doing nothing at the time. So im sticking with V4 for another few months until they get V5 to a better stable state. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
luis carlos 94 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 sadly yes, still using 4 after paying for getting the 5. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
UBotBuddy 331 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Patience grasshoppers! I am sensing some coding changes in the Force and some of my stuff is actually running quite a bit better. Buddy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

UBotDev 276 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Yep, good old v4. For any serious work v5 is not yet suitable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bot-Factory 602 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 95% v45% v5 (testing and some scraping bots because v5 has better memory management) Dan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
the_way 52 Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 i notice that the majority of people posting here are windows 7 users. So once ubot version 6 is released, we can all finally upgrade to version 5!! lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zenos 13 Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 I got V5 but still use V4 ... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kreatus (Ubot Ninja) 422 Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 Experience ubotters still using version 4. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
New Guy 4 Posted April 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 Wow, surprised that so many people are still using V4. I haven't done any botting for about a year or so and I remember around the time I stopped V4 was just getting really stable. Now I come to the forums and it looks like with all the plugin devs and what not Ubot V4 is pretty solid to make some exceptional bots now. Just a thought to the Ubot Dev team, since Ubot V4 has such a strong community of devs behind it building plugins and such, and with V5 not being 100% stable and no sign of when it will be (I read in another thread that Eddie has left ) Is there any chance that maybe working on a new version when we already have a solid one on our hands is a bad idea? I mean, I almost subscribed to the updates for V5 today just based off of the sales vid. I got stoked but had to dig deeper, (I know how ubot updates can be) . The only upgrades to V5 seem to be the new UI (Which is sleek) , the recording feature (which I would never use but is obviously going to attract more customers with no programming background) , and the UI builder, Oh yea, and Ubot secure. Umm, why are features being added that nobody needs? A UI Builder? There has to be at least 10 different plugins I've seen for this, Ubot Secure? There's at least 10 different solutions for this as well that work. Now I may be wrong, but there seems to be a pattern here of tacking on new "features" to the software that nobody needs because they've already been taken care of by the community. I bought a good UI builder and a great protection system for V4 sometime back before I quit fiddling with Ubot. I bought an even Better UI builder and a new protection system today on the forums that look 10x better than what I had seen from the V5 vids. Again, I may be wrong. But to me it seems like the team might be a little too focused on monopolizing. I've had a love/hate relationship with Ubot (especially the dev team) over the time I've been using because it's both made and costed me a bunch of money. Eventually I moved on to other languages but nothing is as fast for simple web scripting as Ubot. Can't speak for anyone else, but I'd am personally be all for subscribing to updates and paying to further develop the product that I can USE. Slap a New UI On V4 and lets keep rolling along with that! Lol Not badmouthing V5, I haven't even used it as of yet, but the consensus here speaks for itself. Been using Ubot for over 4 years already (time flies) Lol, so I def dont think the project is going anywhere anytime soon. Hopefully things move forward smoothly, for now I am off to play with all of these cool new plugins that I bought today! Can't believe how far this software has come, actual multithreading and sockets !? Neat stuff. i notice that the majority of people posting here are windows 7 users. So once ubot version 6 is released, we can all finally upgrade to version 5!! lol Great point. I'm still using python 2.7 , Delphi Xe2 , and and Iphone 4s as well. Maybe I'm just the "if it ain't broke don't fix it type" . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve 30 Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 Great point. I'm still using python 2.7 , Delphi Xe2 , and and Iphone 4s as well. Maybe I'm just the "if it ain't broke don't fix it type" . I think his point was that even the forum is lacking. There is no option to select windows 8 on the profile page, only windows 7 -- lol.

I think my point remains valid though, software vendors all have big problems when it comes to making REQUIRED upgrades as opposed to financially inspired ones.

Martin C 6 Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 As much as i would like to use Version 5 there are in my case too many bugs that make it unusable; strangely version 4 seems to have become remarkably stable since version 5 was released, maybe it just feels that way.

orbital 15 Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 I'm still using v4 as well. I have tried v5 but there are just too many bugs with the plugins that I love so much and work so well in v4. Plus when I open my big bots in v5 they don't work so I am going to stick with v4.

CreativeWurks 9 Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Still on ubot 4... not willing to mess with 5 anymore after having a few tools crash 400 lines in code.. Im sure the issues will be resolved sooner or later. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zonfar 1 Posted April 28, 2014 Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 I keep trying to go back to V5, but V4 simply is less buggy, and runs my bots a lot smoother/better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
