Kolbot not starting

[cedisme]

Hello, I am new to this program, I installed it this morning, did allt he YouTube tutorials, checked an re-checked it all and still no success.

What happens is when I run the program, it launches D2, but then nothing happens, and after 20 seconds it crashes and says D2BS is not responding... starting profile. Am I missing something? I installed everything correctly my profile is set up with my username and password ( but it doesn't even get to that part yet). Can anyone help please?

Thank you,

I have tried fixing the issue by adding "-w" to the game to allow for minimized window as that is what Kolbot seems to be using but that did not help either.

I have also tried re-downloading Kobot.

I downloaded D2 and D2 expansions from Batlenet. I can enter the game and battlenet if I enter the game normally though.

Make sure you installed both dependencies (c++ and .net) and run D2Bot as admin. Then if it still doesn't work you can try to:

• run D2Bot with win7 or xp compatibility
• remove the -ns parameter in your profile

where do I remove the -ns from ?

I have both dependecnies on my computer, not sure if they are running though.

I am running both programs with Win7 right now,

The problem is its oppening D2 so the path must be good, but then its like it can't seem to do anything? So where does it get the information it needs to go to battlenet? Is it from D2bot or from a file?

My character parameters are -w -sleepy -ftj

If the app opens D2 it crashed within 15 seconds, even if i enter the passwordand everything manually... When i enter batle net with the application having opened D2 it won't even allow meto select the character.

Any advice?

The error I get is D2BS is not responding... starting profile

So where does it get the information it needs to go to battlenet?

In your D2Bot profile, check https://github.com/blizzhackers/documentation/blob/master/d2bot/ManagerSetup.md/#manager-setup

The game crashes after ~10sec because D2Bot fails to receive an answer from the d2 window so it kills it. It can happen for various reasons, not sure in your case.

I read the whole article, heres a few things im not quite sure about.

1. The key portion, do i need to put the key in the D2 folder ? I am able to play battlenet so i don’t believe that this is necessary correct?

2. I mean what is giving the kolbot the ability to login to my account , in the sense that is it the D2bot or is it in the programming of the pally (for example) code i wrote ?

3. I downloaded the game from batlenet is that the issue ? Does it need to be a physical copy as some forms mention?

Thanks for all your help man,

1) You only need it if you run multiple d2 instances 2) It depends, most entry scripts use the information in your D2Bot profile 3) Both work
