Enjoy fishing?
After hours and hours of pressing the keys q,e,r and 1 in time to catch a simple fish, my fingers hurt. Time to invest my skill to better use. Hence the fishing tool I made. There are various tools out there, but none seemed to work for me. So i made one myself.

The workings
This tools is nothing more than a recognize the image and press the corresponding keys. I have included the source so everyone can see its workings.
To download you need two things:
- Autohotkey application.
This is a free and open source application that can read a own-written script that handles keybinds or images detection and do various actions like moving the mouse or pressing a keystroke for you.
- The AHK script i wrote, called fishbot.zip and the images to detect the events on
In the fishbot.zip you will find a fishbot.ahk (text)file and a subdirectory with some images that the script will look for.
B.t.w. you might need to run it as administrator!
There are four hotkeys defined:
- Win+Q : exit the bot
- Win+A: temporary stop fishing
- Win+S: temporary stop fishing after current catch
- Win+F: continue fishing
The script will only run when neverwinter client is running. It will also move and resize the game window, so it knows where to scan for the buttons. Once the script has resized it will also switch back to your game.
Next find a good fishing spot and press [tab]. The tool will take over from you.
To stop immidiatly Win+Q
The script:
(you might need to adjust the images and or coordinates if it is not working for you)
