First of all, I'd like to apologize for my long absence. I've had a bussy time and did not find the time to continue with this project. Moreover I do no longer feel that I want to continue making this tool, for a game that is already dying anyways.
But it would be of course a shame if all the work that has been done for this bot would end up in it being permanently offline because of an unreliable hosting site. That's why I have made a standalone version that will not check for the state of the bot or updates.
If you had a previous installation, I recommed removing it completely first with the , and then run the new version.
I had to revert it to version 2.4.5, because I lost the source of the latest version.
Features:
Collect bonusboxes.
Repairs PET
Works in background.
How to use V-Bot:
and install V-Bot.
Replace img folder with the latest images ()
Open darkorbit without closing the bot.
Put your mouse above the browser with dark orbit and press "F1".
Hide all windows except the minimap, wich you have to place at the bottom left corner.
^Your do window should look like this.
First, after doing the above try to see if it works, if it doesn't go look for a bonusbox and see if it tries collects it. If it does not try to collect it, then you have probably done something wrong, if it does try to collect it, do step 5.
5. Take a screenshot of the > 0,00 at the minimap wen you reach destination and save it as Moving0.png in C:ProgramDataVBotimg (note that the folder ProgramData is hidden by default so you have enable show hidden files or type the address in windows explorer) you will have to do this on a regulat basis, repeat this step when your ship doesn't move.
-->
--> C:ProgramDataVBotimgMoving0.png
Doesn't work?
Try using it with Internet Explorer
Go to: Control PanelSystem and SecuritySystem On he left side, there will be "Advanced System Settings" Click it. Go to advanced tab, and to performance, then press settings. Then press the Option "Best display" Click apply then ok.(if you don't want your pc to be on "best display", you can set it up like )
If that doesn't help, post a reply at the Thread with the following:
1. What steps you have done.
2. What you have tryed to solve the problem.
3. What web browser you used.
4. What your settings where.
5. Screenshot and/or video is extremely helpfull
6. If there where runtime errors, everything inside the following folder: C:ProgramDataVBotlog
(note that the folder C:ProgramData is hidden, so you have to copy-paste the adress in windows explorer or enable show hidden files).
7. Your resolution
8. Explain what happened.
You can make it work on desktops with small resolution

Goto darkorbit and open the spacemap, just as if you where going to play.
Run vBotBG.exe
Click "Select window"
Hover over the window with darkorbit and press F1
Press the start button
Pause with the pause button, the button right of the pause button hides the bot window, the button with the X exits the bot.
Return window deselects the window selected
Hide window" moves the selected window offscreen(you can't see it)
Show window moves the window back to where it was before hiding it
Search delay is a timeout between every search, if thebot uses too much cpu u can put it higher(1000=1 sec, very slow)
You need auto-repair cpu for the flee and repair functions to work.
Update button in spacemap tab will update the displayed spacemap
Make sure you don't minimize the window or click on windows's "show desktop" button(it minimizes all windows)
Don't click too repeatedly on "Update".

How to get pink boxes in game?
1. Clean cache, use CCleaner for this (find tutorial yourself)
2. Download SWF manager
3. Double click on the .exe file in SWF manager folder and press start
4. Set up proxy to 127.0.0.1:8888 (find tutorial yourself)
5. Boxes should be pink now... (if they are not, check for graphics quality, I use Low and it work's for me)
How to make vBotFree collect pink boxes?
1. Make sure SWF manager is working for you before you do this
2. Get a small part of the pink box's texture (middle part with black dot and pink rectangle around is the best) - you can get it by taking screenshot and cropping it or you can download it from somewhere (I won't post link, sorry)
3. Replace BonusBox.png (in vBotsources folder) with the pink box texture which you got in step 2
How to make vBotBG work correctly for long time without crashing or anything like that?
- I don't think there is any simple way to do this, but if you can get working browser and fix gdiplus bug, it will work for you I guess..
- I have to admit it does not work for me no matter what I do I just can't fix it.. (I think the bug appears when you don't move for too long time so you get disconnected and the bot is not able to reconnect you)
Updated 1.0.2 - It now flies to a portal and repairs(must have auto repair) when your shield is damaged.
Fly must be true in settings.ini to use this feature.
nice work TskulT your bot is doing rly good work , i think the thing that the bot can repair my ship is maybe a bit useless unless you cant afford to buy invisible cloak (but almost everybody can), i think it would reach its maximal potential if it could revive my ship after being destroyed (maybe in some of next patches who knows... of course you know -_-) but please dont take this badly just wanted to tell this to U. Otherwise its rly good
