If you are using KaneBot and wish to know how to access the commands, please follow these instructions.
First, let's make sure you have connected correctly.
On the connection screen, enter in the server you wish to use, or select it from the list which
is just to the right of the editfield.
You cannot connect without a server selected.
Then, you must enter in the account you wish to log in under, since you cannot use 'Guest'.
Remember to enter in your password, as well!
Next, you'll need to select the game that you want KaneBot to use. I have selected StarCraft
for this demonstration, however you may use any game that you have a CD key for.
Remember, you must provide your own CD key to connect, so you must only choose a game that
you have a CD key for!
Now, if someone else tries to use the CD key while you are using it, they will see a message saying that the CD key is in use by someone. If you want, you may enter in your name for this message in the CD Key Name field.
You now need to type in the CD key for the game that you selected. You do not need the dashes
between the numbers or letters, however, I have shown the use of them for simplicity's sake.
Typing in an invalid CD key will not let you onto Battle.net!
You also should type in a channel that you want to automatically go to after KaneBot has logged
in.
You may leave this field blank. Typing in an invalid channel or a restricted channel will send
you to 'The Void' upon logging in.
Optionally, you can check some boxes for KaneBot to use. I think they're pretty self-explanatory
except for the 'Hide Gateway Aquire' box. That checkbox will hide chat events that KaneBot sees
while it is trying to find out the specific name of the gateway that it is on. I recommend that
you check this box, so that there's not so much junk text.
If you don't understand something, turn on balloon help, and hover your mouse over it.
Finally, click the connect button.
Wait for KaneBot to connect.
Once connected, there may be one annoyance with the icons. If it took longer to download and load the game icons then it did to connect and login, then you won't have any icons for the users. To fix this, simply rejoin the channel.
Next, you need to locate the tempfix field and type in the name of your account that you were
able to log in with.
Remember, if you tried to login with 'SomeUser', but Battle.net logged you in with 'SomeUser#2',
you will need to type in 'SomeUser#2' in the tempfix field!
Also, if you are using Diablo 2 or Lord of Destruction, you will need an asterisk (*) in front
of your bot's name!
You're almost finished. Have the bot whisper itself "!help".
When done successfully, KaneBot will automatically reply like so:
