I can post my settings but I am also located in Australia. The settings I use are safe for me, but, depending on how far from the US you are, they would probably be dangerous times to use. 

 

I don't mean your refresh rates and haggle rates, just everything else. I like my refresh rates as they are. either way nothing is working for me anyways. and I am on a mac os sierra 10.13.14 if that gives more info  and on my new macbook, sometimes my abrosia is just in the background running while I am browsing on the internet and sometime it is minimized.

I don't even know why we still have the Attic AB'er side of things in the program, it's no longer there @Pyro699. Make sure this is all disabled too.

I don't use the scheduler either, so this is off for me:

Also, IMO this page is useless too, I doubt that these features even work, so have them all disabled too.

Make sure you turn off App Nap for the program manager! Here is a guide on how to do that.

^ great advice too, nice one @ortin

it's a christmas miracle!!!!!! guys it attempted to buy an item finally!!!

^just posted a screenshot !!

 

so I followed ortin's advice and disabled app nap for program manager, and before this autobuying session that was successful I also only changed one other setting, I added another shop for the autobuyer to visit!! as I had noticed in both screenshots that Scot and Strategist posted they made their settings so the ABer would visit at least a minimum of 2 shops, this whole time I only had it set to one shop at a time, so I added Kauvara's magic shop to the 'visit specific shop ID's setting' so that the 2 shops I would AB in were magic and the post office.

 

don't know which of those 2 settings did it but I am happy, thanks everyone for your help! maybe someone can test later to see if abrosia does not attempt to grab items when only set to AB in a single shop, though that seems unlikely so maybe it was the app nap!!

 

edit - also it might be that the 'profit must be greater than x amount of np's' number needs to be lower than 100k, while the 'buy items considered unbuyable' box is checked at the same time for it to properly work. before abrosia attempted to buy an item when I had the 'buy items considered unbuyable' box unchecked, it didn't matter what I set my 'profit must be greater than amount' to, it would not attempt to grab any item. and then when I checked the 'buy items considered unbuyable' box, my 'profit must be greater than amount' was always above 100k like 150k or 200k and even those settings prevented abrosia from attempting to purchase anything. but then right before I was finally successful and it attempted to buy an item after like 6 days, it was maybe because right before I set the buy items considered unbuyable box checked while simultaneously setting my minimum profit to below 100k (at 98k). but at least the mystery is solved, it is either what I just said or it is the app nap or multiple shops are required for it to work. one of these 3 was the fix for sure!

Awesome news :D Glad that you managed to get it to at least attempt a buy! At least you know that it still works for you now. Good luck!

hey just wondering what does living in australia have to do with your extremely low haggle and OCR rates? don't get it, is your internet very slow there lol idk, I am in California. and when I was last active on neopets years ago I was using abrosia with those same low settings (0.01 seconds) and yet I was getting the same safe buy times as you (between 1800-2400ms) so those settings are safe for you correct? my settings right now are haggle rates between 0.4 to 0.7 seconds and OCR rate delay is between 0.6 and 0.9 seconds. maybe if I lowered them to yours I would grab items more successfully while still looking human achieving the ideal 1800-2400ms.

 

because yeah with the settings I am using now abrosia is 0/8 and has not successfully purchased one item out of 8 attempts. maybe I will mess around with it and lower it a bit and see what my ms buy time is with my first purchase and then adjust from there.

 

and yeah thanks for the good luck, excited it's working now!
