To whom it may concern,
I was just curious. Is there any way for me to run the bot with either 16Bit or 24Bit Color Depth. I have an older computer, I've upgraded the graphics drivers. And the max it allows me now is 24Bit.
I've tried running it many times and it crashes, giving me an option to send in an Error Report. And my guess is that it's the color depth. Because when I tried changing the bot.exe compatibility options, it wouldn't run. And when I tried running it in 256 Colors. It gave me an Error stating that it must be run in 32Bit Color. So I checked my desktop settings. And the only option I had was 16Bit. So I upgraded my drivers now I have 16Bit and 24Bit.
All help is much appreciated! Thank you so much!

Just how old is your computer? See, the problem with java is that it's resource hungry. Any computer with 512mb RAM or less probably wouldn't be able to run it smoothly enough for the bot to function. I'd put a min requirement of 1GB RAM for the bot, plus a decent processor. If your PC is as old as I suspect, 24 bit colour is the least of your problems. Sorry I couldn't be of any help

HP Pavilion 7845 - Mini Tower 128MB Stock RAM - Upgraded to 256MB Total. [Max allowed is 512MB] Windows XP - SP3 Intel 810E Chipset 866Mhz Processor Tbh, I would say it wouldn't work. When I used a VM on my old PC, I assigned each VM 512mb. That wasn't enough, and that was with the speedy XP SP2. Also, I tried my older PC (512mb), and the bot didn't work on that either. I'd advise you to buy/build a new PC, or give up on the bot. I'm surprised your machine can run the Java. Then again, I might be wrong. Anyone else tried running the bot on 24 bit colour?

Tictac, I recently got 6 computers given to me. I ripped them all apart and took the best parts from each to build 2 decent computers. One for me and one for my girlfriend. Anyways I have 1Gb RAM now and 2.5Ghz Processor. Alot better than what I had. I did all updates and everything. I have it set to 32bit as well now. The bot runs up to when it finishes recording rooms. Then it joins a room. Then sits there with no results.

Because the rooms & tables have changed. At the moment, there is no working bot.
It's being worked on though.

Hey I have a question... Not trying to mooch or anything, but... I was wondering if I can maybe get an account here. And when I get paid I can make a generous donation or something.
I noticed the Registrations have been down for quite some time.
