1. --INTRODUCTION--​

Hi there,
I've decided to make a sort of guide on RSBOT because alot of people have been complaining about problems etc. on here, and I'm out to stop it

--WHAT IS RSBOT?--​

RSbot, written by Speljohan and maintained by several others, is a macro for RuneScape. It is written in Java and is a very well made program (or I think ). There are quite a few scripts that can be used and many different things can be gained from using RSbot. Levels, a skillcape or money. Rsbot can get you all of these things.

--WHY RSBOT?--​

Mainly because of: a) It's free. b) It's minimizeable (which means you can minimize it to your taskbar and do something else while it auto's)

That was a pretty awful quick introduction to RSBOT, but on a serious note, this bot really is incredible, and if used properly, can make your gaming experience a load more enjoyable.

2. --How to download RSBot--​

So my introduction ACTUALLY worked?!
Haha, so now your thinking, well how do I get it? There are 2 ways, but I will only be covering one, as it is so much more reliable/easy.
To get the bot, your going to use SVN updates. It uses a program called tortoise SVN to update the bot. There are a couple of SVN updaters out there, but the most widely used one is tortoise.
To get tortoise SVN, go to: http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads
Choose your installer, depending on whether you have a 32 or 64 bit OS.
When the download has finished, install it wherever you want.
When you've done all that, create a folder on your desktop named RSbotsvn:

​

Then, right click on the folder, and you should see this:

​

Click on SVN checkout.

Change the URL of repository to: http://rsbot.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/
And you should see this:

​

Hit okay and the bot will then update, and you should then see a nice green tick next to your RSbotsvn folder. It doesn't matter if you have a tick or an exclamation mark (or anything else for that matter), the bot should still work.

Congrats, you just downloaded RSBot

3. How to run RSbot​

Open up your RSbot folder, and you should see this:

​

First, double click on compile, and let it compile all your scripts.
Then, depending on whether your F2P or P2P, click run non-members or run members.
First thing's first, you need to put an account to use into the bot. Don't worry, this isn't a keylogger or anything.
Go to settings --> Account Manager:

​

Once there, hit add, type in your username and password, and then hit apply. You should then see your account name in the box above it. Then press okay:

​

Once you've done all of that, go to bot --> run script:

​

Once you've done that, you should get this pop up:

​

These are the scripts that come pre-packed with the bot. They are pretty useful. To run a script, simply click on the folder's and such till you get to a script. Some scripts have arguments. These basically tell the bot what to do. If a script has arguments, and you don't know what they are, do not use it, as it will not work. If you want to find the arguments, go onto the forums (rsbot.org) and see if you can find them. Most scripts have tooltips, or boxes that you can check which make it nice and easy

If your botting, and want to stop, you can either hit the "pause" button in the top right hand corner, or you can go bot --> stop script.


If you want to click on something while a bot is running, make sure the box next to the "User Input" tab is GREEN, not RED.

4. --How to add your own scripts--​

Okay, here we go, the long awaited (well not really) adding your own scripts section!
Adding scripts is so incredibly basic if you know what your doing, but for some people, it just doesn't work if you know what I mean. So, this bit of the guide is for those who just can't get it.
First things first, you need a script to put into your bot. Head over to rsbot.org (please bear in mind their site may be down quite alot of the time) and find yourself a script.
There are 2 ways that someone will post a script. The first is in this format:

​

The second way will appear like this:

​

This should be at the bottom of the first post on the thread in question.
IF YOU GET A SCRIPT IN THE CODE FORMAT (FIRST ONE)
So you've got a script in quote format, first of all, highlight the whole script (making sure you scroll down to the bottom of the quote box) and press ctrl+c, now surely you don't need a picture for that -.-
Next, open up your RSBot folder. Then go to scripts. You should see a pretty big folder full of .java documents and .class files. Don't touch anything unless I say lol.
In scripts, create a new text document.

​

Open your text document, and paste the script.
The next bit is very important, so read it carefully.
Now on your script, you should see that the first couple of lines begin with import. Ignore this, and go to where it stops saying import. It should then say:

Code:

public class [scriptname here]

Or as demonstrated in this picture of BGplankah:

​

The red box is what we're interested in. Notice how it is the first thing after the script imports the bot (IE, all the import stuff). The bit that we are REALLY interested (like really really), is the name after the "public class" bit. This is the name of the script, and what you need to do is copy it. So highlight, right click, copy.
Then, go file -> save as:

​

And in the name bar, right click, paste, and you should have the proper name of the bot there, and simply type .java on the end of it, and click save.
It should look like this if you did it right:

​

Notice how the name is EXACTLY like it is after the public class bit. If you don't do it EXACTLY like it, it WON'T work.
Save it, and compile, and your done
Do not delete .class files, just don't.

If the maker of the script gives you a downloadable .java file at the bottom of the page, your lucky. Simply download the file, move it into your scripts folder, and compile. Voila.

5. --How to fix tools.jar/JKD errors--​

I quoted this from Lime Vine's thread, with his permission. Credits given at the bottom.

6. --CREDITS/ENDING WORDS--​

I made all the sections apart from 5. 5 was done by Lime Vine, and I have simply quoted his post from his thread, so credits to him and the person who originally posted it on RSbot.org.
I put as many pictures in here as I could, as I feel that pictures really do paint a thousand words.
If you have any questions at all, or if any of this is unclear, PM me and i'll try my best to help you
This is for sythe use only, anyone found distributing this elsewhere will get their ass kicked.

Thanks man I was a bit lost when I downloaded it and havnt used it in like a week, but this helped quite a bit. BTW do you know how to remove it? I want to make like 2m on my pure then I would like to get rid of it and I am not sure how lol

 

What do you mean get rid of it? Are you talking about the svn updater or the actual bot?
¬Albal

 

does this actually work
w/o getting yourself banned?

 

awesomee.
if anyone knows where an essence miner is, let me know

 

Yes, this does work, and it's hard to get banned if you know what your doing.

iv got the same problem as him

 

You don't need to download RSbot, just SVN updater, or what?
PM me back.

 

What are your processor specs?

 

Well detailed: good work.

 

mine says when i click compile all that i need to have tools.jar

what is that?

 

you need the java development kit

http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp

 

fixed that but and all i have left now is that when i click run members it comes up at connecting to update server and it doesnt move past that....

 

thank you so much dude it actually works for me even past the gay update part haha

 

ive just downloaded tortoise svn and java download kit so that i can use the bot, i entered for the first time and typed in the user and pass, i selected a script, so this is what happened it logged in but i forgot the acc was stranded in a random place on rs, and the bot wasnt doing anything, so i pressed pause and just exited the window.

then when i got it to karamja lobbie fishing, so i could turn on auto fish, i went to my folder with the rs bot and there a big red exclamation "!" on it, instead on the big green tick, so i opened the folder and tried to click "RUN non-members" and it says windows doesnt know which file supports it..? and it worked fine 2 mins before?

any help?

thanks.

 

This worked great for mining, i plan to try other scripts later, thanks a bunch!

 

Coming from a master guide maker himself, thank you

Right click on your RSbot folder, and do "SVN update". Try it after you've done that.

Your not the only one with a big red excalmation mark. Mine still works perfectly fine, try deleting the folder, and making a new one to update.
If it still doesn't work, PM me.

 

cheers albal very nice guide btw.

 

nice job dude, so many people come on "HOW DO I USE RS BOT, RIGHT NOW" im no exception, this needed to be done.

screenies = A+
