No Viruses I promise, you can scan if you like. :) I will love to hear your feedback, it works for me right now, let me know if it doesn't work for you!

(If a mod could please change the title of the thread to the name at the top of the thread I would appreciate it :))

Nice! :)

How come you need a run-me.bat file? Can't you just run Simba.exe?

E: Seems to work fine for me. Just running Simba.exe doesn't though, even though the default.simba file is set to MSI's RunMe. Not sure what's up with that. Also, a suggestion, include SPS; although that may increase the size significantly, I'm not sure.

I'll look into SPS tomorrow. The reason for the bat is exactly what your edit says. MSI wouldn't come up as default for some reason after being moved around.

Should be able to get it to work rather than having to use a .bat as a workaround. May need to contact Wizzup?. Or, did you set the script to default from Simba, or did you copy/paste it in to defaut.simba then save.

You may have to do it through Simba.

Hey.

I'v changed your password, because you accidentally left it in one of the files.

Read your PM.

Wizzup is the one who came up with the idea for the .bat file. :p I tried setting it in Simba, no go.

I thought Simba was already portable?

No, that's why you have to run an installer each time you use it and turn on the srl/reflection/MSI etc. extensions. This isn't much quicker, as the download is bigger, but it saves a few clicks.

last time i check you install it once and then simply run it?

or am i missing something

Yeah we dont wanna install it… just like run it from a flash drive or something…

ok, so if i simply install it to a memory stick, and make sure that my memory stick is given the drive letter of w: all the time surely it will work just fine wouldn't it.

so is that basically what this does or what?

Correct on the drive letter. This eliminates the need for a drive letter to be setup. If you used this as the primary install source, you could then simply copy your Simba directory to wherever and it would run. :redface:

ok cool, sorry if it sounded if i was raining on your parade.

just asking stuff :)

So, if I put this on my USB and take it to wherever, I can use this to bot? I don't understand if this is portable or not with the installer.

Thats what the aim is… Also, it has msi, srl and reflection included…

Its easier to setup practically…

This is exactly it, I'm changing the name to reflect this. Also, pushing new version now. Updated

Wow it looks good… l'll test it later…

What did you change to make this?

From: Harry
What did you change to make this?

Nothing that complicated. Simply opened up the settings xml file and changed all the paths so that they didn't look for a specific drive or location. Just inside the Simba folder.

That shouldn't be too hard to reproduce into the official Simba installer, or even a short guide on how to change it manually. If the Simba binaries aren't edited in the case of this program, then it shouldn't be any problem.

Guide would be easy, but the problem with doing it in the offical Simba installer is that by default none of the extensions are enable. This has them enabled, for that to happen I had to turn on the extensions and update them myself. Then zip it into the self extracting file. If they we set to be on be default then it would be the exact same thing as this.

"Defined SPS in MSI"

So you have it set to use SPS, or you've just defined it? I know RunMe.simba has the walking method set to Color by default, but I'm not sure about the form. Also, you may want to include somewhere that as soon as someone installs this way, they should check for updates for Reflection/SRL/MSI. Unless it's set to automatically do so already. :)

The form doesn't default either when I checked last night. It will than most likely default to color. :)

I'll look into the form. The box is checked but for me for some reason the auto update has never really worked that great, I'll try to find a way to make it check on first run somehow.

I hope that's the case, if not I bet I can just set it in the form and save it.

Updated to v3.2

New in this version.

• Updated MSI, SRL, and Reflection.
• Autoupdate checked by default
• SPS used in MSI by default

Link in OP.

If you like, you might want to post how to do it since it will reduce the effort you have to put in and also help others make it themselves. A good idea nonetheless, keep up the good work :).

Sounds like a good idea. I'll put a guide together when I get back. I'm going to be gone for a few days. Should be back on the 17/18

So, whats left of this project? Is it ready?

From: Yago
So, whats left of this project? Is it ready?

It's been ready the whole time. Some features like SPS have been added, but other than that it has always worked. It just requires updating alot, which is why the versions keep changing, any why I'm planning to write a guide on how to do this yourself.

Does the reflection update when new hooks are aviable?

If you are talking about autoupdate I can't say, as it's never really worked for me with Simba, but if you run a simple check for update, then it will update the reflection that it is packaged with.

Why'd it need to be updated a lot? If the auto-updaters work, you should just be able to run it as soon as you download.

I suppose it really doesn't. I just always like having the latest and greatest available for the sake of fewer clicks of those who download it.

Oh yeah, that's great, but it's good to know that it'll still work if you or someone else hasn't yet uploaded a new one.

We should launch this like in a downloads page have the option to also do portable…

Edit: Like after we male a portal and global downloads page …

I agree.

it was always portable for me…by which i mean after u install just your free to copy paste on say a flash drive and run it on another pc… im pretty sure thats what portable implies…however im a bit concerned about the ease of use for leechers ..

Concerned about what? That it's too easy?

Then you've had much better luck than I have. Whenever I moved it around the extension menus at the top disappeared, I just changed some paths in the settings file to make them stay. So I really don't know how yours worked. What concerns do you have about ease of use? This is designed to be easier.

EDIT: @ Everyone else, where should I put the guide for running this and building your own? Or should I make two separate guides?

Awesome. But doesn't simba need a redownload when major version comes out?

Nope, you just have to run runescape in a browser/client and then restart smart. It only happens sometime though, not for every update.

From: Zyt3x

Reflection has it's own updater for Hooks, The Simba extension doesn't update and infact may downgrade your hooks as the Hooks on GitHub are sometimes old.

I think he was talking about a major Simba version, and I think Simba's updater will handle it, but it's recommended to install with the updated installer.

Right, which is what this basically is. Whenever a new version of Simba (.97 I believe?) is released I'll updated this with it. Speaking of updates:

[B]PV3.2.2[/B]
[LIST]
[*]SRL/MSI/Reflection update
[*]default associate extension turned on
[/LIST]

Thanks. I actually used this because I wanted to run multiple bots on the same computer. They were using different versions of reflection so I figured this would be an easy solution to run a bot with R2 and another with R.

Glad it's working for you. Just know that sometimes reflection doesn't like updating it's hooks with this version for some reason.

Super update: Been meaning to get around to this for a while.

• Changed to Simba .98
• Removed reflection
• Added newer SPS plugin
• Updated everything
• Included ObjDTM

Awesome, needed this!

it's not done uploading yet, so don't download for a little bit.

I won't need it till tomorrow when I get into the office. No worries :)

Oh ok, well now it's finished.

whats *almost* mean in the title if it's finished?

Also, whats portable mean in this "Simba portable".

This + USB + School Computer + Teamviewer = Lots of xp :D lol bro did this once

0.99 will probably feature a portable and system-wide (proper) install. Right now it defaults to system-wide, though.

Hmm, well until then I'll keep updating this periodically. Like today:

[B]v3.3[/B]
[LIST]
[*] Added ObjDTM updater
[*]SRL/MSI/SPS/ObjtDTM update
[/LIST]

Not working as of 2013 lol. Please post a new link?

It has been added to 0.99 as default, @poisonshot;

Exception in Script: Unable to find file 'SRL/SRL.Simba' used from 'C:\Simba\Scripts\Jeffrey's Chicken Killer v2.04.simba'

I'm just going to close this, it has no use anymore, newest Simbas are portable by default.

Also this thread seems to get spam…
