FAQ

Q: What is the Binary Manager? Is it a bot?

A binary is just a program compiled to run on your computer... YAEB.exe is a binary - or binary bot, as we like to call it. The Binary Manager is a program that will allow you to setup profiles for each binary bot you would normally run. With these profiles you can start, stop, restart, and even set the bots to auto-run. The Binary Manager itself is not a bot, you will need to download the binary bot also.

Q: Will the Binary Manager work with my old copies of YAEB.exe? Can I use it with the browser based Autoevony.swf bots?

No. The Binary Manager can only work with YAEB.exe version 2334 or higher.


Q: Is the Binary Manager required to use the binary bots?

No. You are free to run and use the bots without the Manager, but if you run multiple accounts or servers, this will be very helpful to you. If you're not going to use the Manager, you should keep a seperate folder for each account and/or server, so that when you run the YAEB.exe you will not have to type in the login details each time. If using the Manager, you're able to keep only 1 folder for all accounts to share.

Q: Can I use the Binary manager on my Linux or MacOS machine?

No. At this time the Manager only works for Windows operating systems. You should be able to emulate it with WINE or similar Windows emulators on another OS.

Q: What is .NET Framework 4 and why do I need it?

If you're getting a message from the Manager that it needs .NET Framework 4 installed, go to http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=17851 and download it. The Manager needs the files from that in order to run on your computer.

Q: How do I update the Manager? Or the bots I use with it?

This is super easy and why the Manager is a great idea to use with multiple accounts. For the Manager, download the new version and drop it into the folder where the old one is... allow the new version to overwrite the old one. To update to a new YAEB.exe, download the new version, shutdown all your currently running bots, and drop it in the folder. Go to or run the Binary Manager and click the "Change" button at the bottom [see Setup above] and select the new YAEB.exe you just downloaded. Now restart your bots and they'll be using this new one.

Q: Will I lose my goals if I start using this?

Maybe. The Manager itself does not save your goals, all it does is help you to manage the bots you run. If you're updating from an older browser (autoevony.swf) version or an older YAEB.exe version to a newer YAEB.exe version, you may have to redo your goals the first time. After that one time, you will find they save even through server merges or location changes on your hard-drive.

Q: Do I need to have the Binary Manager running to use my bots?

You need to turn it on in order to launch your bots if they're not currently running. Afterwards you can close the Manager or leave it running, your choice. You can close bots by clicking the "x" on the top right corner of their windows if you wish, or you can close them through the Manager.

Q: Can the binary manager be used for anything other than bots?

The binary manager opens the selected exe with the name you added as a parameter. As long as you know what this means, you can use it on what ever file you like.
