The only part I understood was

The bot uses 2 user files when it runs; a waypoint file, which you can select from the list that appears, is the path that the character walks, and a profile, which has the character settings such as options and skills.

The bot will automatically look for 2 possible profile names. First it will look for a profile with the same name as the character, eg. mrbot.xml or if this profile doesn't exist then it will look for a user general purpose profile called userdefault.xml. It looks for these profiles in the "rom/profile" folder.

Neither of these files initially exist. I suggest you start by copying the default.xml profile and naming it userdefault.xml. This will automatically be used for all characters that don't have their own profile. When you want to go to the trouble of making a custom profile for that character then create a profile with the same name as the character and optimize it for that character.

yes, i am sorry.... I already tried to change the files but its like rombot refuses or can not find the files. Is there some program i should install so my RoM client connects to the bot? Thanks for your answer :)

PS. i copied file and made 1 my charname and 1 userdefault. Svnupdate didnt do anything, but guess that is not involved.

TortoiseSVN and SVN Update are only needed, when the admins, for example rock updated some parts of the bot. You have to start the micromacro.exe in th micromacro folder.

But before you do this, like rock said, you have to open the scripts/profiles file and make some copys of the default.xml.
One "default - Copy.xml" you can change to your bot characters name (this file will be used by that character) and one "default - Copy.xml" you can change to userdefault.xml (this file will be used when it won't find a customized profile which fits to your character's name).

ok here it is :
We can't find your profile *****.xml. Please create a valid character profile within the folder rom\profiles or start the bot with a forced profile : (script for login forced profile).
If you wish the bot to load a default profile when no valid character profile exists and a forced profile is not used, then create a default proile userdefault.xml.
Bot finished due to errors above

Already tried to make a file copy of default and called it userdefault.xml and also charactername.xml but both did not work.

I'm not sure if you are aware but if Explorer is not set to show extensions then you shouldn't try to add the extension. Example, if you see the profile called "default" instead of "default.xml" then you have the extensions hidden. Which means when you rename it userdefault.xml you are actually naming it userdefault.xml.xml because the extension is hidden.

So try naming the new profiles just "userdefault" and/or "charactername" and leave off the ".xml".
