"You need to run rom first!" error whilst running the game.

[Roadie82]

Hello,

In my effort to make the bot work I've read up on all the how-to guides and set everything up accordingly.
Micromacro v1.0 beta 7 is installed (and seems to work) and I have used TortoiseSVN to update the files in the scripts\rom folder (all green checkmarks so I guess that's good..).


Now, when I start the micromacro and the game I begin by executing the "rom\createpath.lua" command I get the following error:

"Opening createpath.lua...
Starting script execution - Press CTRL+C to exit.
Press CTRL+L to cancel execution and load a new script.
---------------------------------------------------------
OPENING LOCAL SKILLS DB!
You need to run rom first!
scripts\rom\createpath.lua:79: bad argument #1 to 'memoryReadIntPtr' ((null))"


I couldn't find any other posts concerning this issue, also I've tried different commands but they all tell me to run RoM first, which is weird because it is infact running. I've tried to run the game in different resolutions and in both window/fullscreen mode but still no results.

Hopefully this isn't a rookie mistake and you guys can help me out on this one!

Thanks in advance.

Post your log.txt. It would also help if you detailed which version of RoM you are running. Exactly what is the title of the RoM window for you?

I'm running version 2.1.3.1968.en and when I boot the game the name displayed in the window is Runnl of Magic (process is Client.exe)
Thanks for the fast reply.

What do you know!
I changed my client to the Europe version in the launcher (I figured that would change the name in the window) and it is working now.

Thank you very much for the accurate help.

"Runnl of Magic", not "Runes of Magic"? That would cause it. The question is, why is that the title of the RoM window? I wasn't aware that the window title was changed based on the client language.

You can try opening up micromacro/scripts/rom/functions.lua and go to (CTRL+G) line 70. You'll see this:

Code: Select all

	local windowList = findWindowList("Runes of Magic", "Radiant Arcana");

Change to:

Code: Select all

	local windowList = findWindowList("*", "Radiant Arcana");

Save. This should work now.
