i have window xp with ati video card. I dont have its utility program up and running. I load vge enter login without any problems which should be 1.1 and click open to load simplenecrobot.vbs which is the same folder as vge, and exhume. Files that came with necrobot been placed in thier correlating folder. This is all with vanguard already running in windowed mode of course.. I click f5 to start try to do both in game and out of game (i dont how i could get f5 to work within game to start bot which probably should be the case since the game has to be the active window or commands would be happening outside of the game. Now I click start but nothin happens at all.. no errors on screen or in debug file. Please teach

You press F5 in the vgextreme window to start the bot. That's how you start all the scripts. Since no script is running, you cannot press F5 when any other window has focus.

Your problem is with the ATI TOOLS and ATI LOADER.. You must Click on the ATI TOOLS and the other ATI program in the bottom right of your task bar prior to running Exhume. and or VGExtreme. i had the same problem on my computer with ATI tools running ( you prolly used it to open some pipes ;)

Didn't quite follow what you said sinshar, what are you clicking/changing on the ati tools? I have them running but never click them to get anyhting running?

I dont have ati utilitys whowing up on the bottom right hand corner but when I hit ctrl alt delete I do have ati2evxx.exe which seems to be probably what are talking about. I thought i ctrl alt del > ended all of those b4 and tried but will try again later...now its time for sleep.

Can't remember any other adjustment change to configuration i have to make? Everything is still default in game (controls ect..). When its in windowed mode how exactly do you run vge to use bots...can't make a external hotkey to start the bot with the game still focused (primary window). Thanks

You have to use Open Project to load in a new script. If you dont, it wont run the new script.
