How to install/setup Simba for RS3

[sgtwalrusfur]

I can't get Simba to work for the life of me. I've tried almost everything, if someone could skype me and help me i'd appreciate it my skype is jiggaatheist

Thanks for the guide.
The only thing I could suggest is the package coming with d3d9.dll in the Plugins folder as quite a few scripts available on the public section of the website require this. Should also point out that I believe there may be different versions (One for x86/x64 respectively) as the first one I tried did not work at all.

Other than that, flawless software - Thank you.

As far as I know, d3d9.dll is in the standard plugin package (or will be soon). @Olly; will know more about this.

Nice to know that you're all on the ball when it comes to this.
My symptoms however, were flickering in the SMART client, and of course "Failed to load d3d9.dll" in the console.
Should anyone else have that issue chances are they just need to throw the .dll into the Plugins folder. Easily found with a quick Google search or in their DirectX System folder.

The player manager fails to show the accounts I've added, but the scripts allow me to select them what's wrong?

Do you have a player file in Simba/Includes/Players/? Do you get any kind of error when you save players?

Hello guys, so i only recently found out about this "bot" and i wanted to know how safe is it?
i got banned for 24 hours a few months ago for using powerbot, all skills cut down a bit, the usual drill...
I was wondering if there are any bans recorded for running this bot? is it safe for me to bot now? is this mac compatible?
Thanks!

Simba will always have the lowest ban rate out of all runescape bots.

It's not directly compatible with a Mac, but it is possible with some third party applications. There's a guide here.

Anyone help?

Hi Folks,

Its been a LONG time since I have botted and I am running into issues I havent seen before. I have tried a clean re-install of SIMBA but am having the same issues. I have running AIO-DIV script which used to work for me but now when I start the script the login screen flickers really fast and nothing happens. I am also running into an issue where when I click the "Fixed" screen mode I get an error that says "Runescape was unable to enter that display mode" which is probably whats causing problems. The flickering stops when I click "Hide Graphics" not sure if thats important. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

DN

- nevermind the RuneScape Jar that wasn't available caused this.

Make sure your graphics are set right, and make sure you're in OpenGL.

First time ever using Simba. Thanks for the easy to use and comprehensive guide. The only problem I had was I was unable to set my RS to fixed, unsure why.

Did the client give you an error message?

make a video guide?

Someone else is welcome to, but I won't be.

Setup instructions can change and as a result a new video needs to be made. It's much easier to update a thread than create a new video. If there is something in the guide that is unclear, or if there's an issue you had that you resolved, post it here and I will add it to the guide.

Have you tried both DirectX and OpenGL graphics modes?

On Step: Set screen-sizing to Fixed.

The client says "RuneScape was unable to enter that display mode. Please visit our website for more information. Continue"

Then if I hit openGL for the next step, the program terminates. I followed the steps exactly up to that point, what should I do?

[tokoolman]

unistall and deleted everything. the flashes went away! but it still doesnt do anything at the log in screen! it told me to use Direct X! this script is what im using https://villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=109305.i downloaded the necessarily plug ins.

Nope, RS just said it was unable to go fixed screen. I still managed to get a layout where a script would work for me. Not really sure what is different from mine to fixed though.

Your graphics settings aren't set properly.

On Step: Set screen-sizing to Fixed.

The client says "RuneScape was unable to enter that display mode. Please visit our website for more information. Continue"

Both of you try closing Simba and deleting all Jagex related files on your computer, then try again. Or, try setting RS to fixed size in a browser first, then load SMART.
