Cheat at Facebook Dope Wars
Cheat at Facebook Dope Wars
Introduction
Have you ever wanted to play Dope Wars (the Facebook game) and not have to sit at your computer laboriously buying and selling
virtual drugs, for no real reason? The game is hopelessly repetitive and makes absolutely no sense to play - there simply isn't
enough content.
Lucky for you...
we can log into Facebook and automate the whole process. This program will buy or sell ST8 Drop,
searching all of the regions for the best deal. It will buy only if you stand to make over $1000 per bag.
Before you start
- Note: This script searches all regions for best prices. You must have the private jet to use this script.
- Furthermore, this script buys as much ST8 as can fit in your inventory. You need to have enough money to buy
an entire inventory full of ST8 Drop. This is about $304,000,000 with 16,000 bags.
Step #1
For Windows users, follow this link: ActivePython
When you get to the page, simply hit the > <>
Download this file:
Open the file you downloaded and make sure you install Python to the default directory:
Step #2
Download this file and extract the contents to C:\: dope_wars.zip [~400kb]
This file contains the "mechanize" library (Google it. It's what lets us log in to Facebook.) and the Dope Wars script.
Navigate to C:\dope_wars\ and make sure mechanize, ClientForm.py and dope_cheese3.py are in the directory.
Step #3 - Windows
Go to Start > Run and type "cmd". This opens a Command Prompt like this one:
Have your username and password handy, the script needs to know these to log in. You will need to put them in the next command.
Type this command and press ENTER:
C:\Python25\python.exe C:\dope_wars\dope_cheese3.py yourlogin@domain.com yourpassword
Step #3 - Mac OS X
You should already have Python installed as it comes with OS X.
Extract the dope_wars.zip to your home directory.
Open Terminal.app, and use 'cd' to navigate to where you extracted the script.
When you are in the directory that has dope_cheese3.py (type 'ls' to confirm), run this command:
python dope_cheese3.py youremail@domain.com yourpassword
Further discussion
The script follows this path:
- Check prices.
- If the margin is > $1000, it buys and sells until the margin is not $1000.
- If the margin is < $1000, it waits 10 seconds, and checks the prices again.
To stop the script, hold CTRL+C for a few seconds.
