Running Scripts W/O Losing Control of Your Mouse

tMoon · Jun 22, 2018

To be clear: This is completely ripped from Villavu @ Botting on official client [without taking over I/O units]

Don't forget to add a password to the user-account you create or you will be unable to connect to it.
Here's a short simple tutorial for how to run any kind of script, be that for OSRS, NXT, or any other game you can automate, without the script taking control over keyboard or mouse, and it's quite simple, and not particularly resource hungry. And in fact it's half-way shipped with windows already.

This will also allow you to run multiple accounts / bots at once, while you use your PC, and as mentioned there is very little overhead in going this route, nothing compared to running a virtual machine.

To start, you must install the following tool: stascorp/rdpwrap
It allows us to run a host, and a client at the same time so that we can connect to our own PC.

Now that's done, what you wanna do is to create a new user (might need it to be administrator for access to content owned by your main user). See the second post in this tutorial for a step by step.

Using RDP:

Go to start menu, look/search for "Remote Desktop Connection"

Start it, and select "Show options"

Fill in account name for the account we just created

Click "Connect" and fill in your password

That's it, you should now have a window pop up that remotely is logged into your new user account, which you can bot on.

Notes:
Just use the same Simba install for every bot (usually `C:/Simba/Simba.exe`), there's no issue there. So you only have to setup Simba once.

There may be some limitations related to what version of Windows you use, I have no looked into it.

RDPWrap (the tool linked above) might need to be reinstalled after major windows updates.
Minimizing the window will block I/O, here's an alt fix shared by olly:
Code:
1. Run the regedit.exe tool.
2. Find the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client.
3. Create a DWORD value with the name RemoteDesktop_SuppressWhenMinimized and set its value to 2.
4. Find the registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Terminal Server Client.
5. Create a DWORD value with the name RemoteDesktop_SuppressWhenMinimized and set its value to 2.
6. Close the regedit.exe tool.

Lol or you could just turn on Virtual mode....then it doesn't control your mouse. It'll use a virtual mouse that doesn't disrupt you at all.

well, compared how much hardware power takes every single VM with Wins 10 running on it or Linux i think this is more cost/efficient method to do it.

Looks very interesting, might try it.

What andy means is sythelib does not use your own mouse if virtual mode is enabled from within the script so using sythelib would infact be considered more resource friendly

Nowhere, it's on by default. Just as long as you don't use "SetVirtualInputsOff();" in your script it'll use a virtual mouse.
