Well I was just kinda surfing around and I thought about PT as I was doing this lol

Basically this makes it so you have 2 comps on 1
It requires a pretty decent comp to run it smoothly esp with a game lol

Lets begin (all quoted from CheatEngine forums by Mitta, originally intended to run 2 MapleStorys at once so keep that in mind as you read ^_^)

ONLY FOR WINDOWS XP HOST COMPUTERS IF YOU HAVE A CRAPY MAC OR IF YOU ARE RUNNING THE PERFECT LINUX OPERATING SYSTEM FIND OUT YOURSELF Wink

[step1]
Step 1: Software that is needed.

Ok this is a easy step for most of us Very Happy you aren’t a good cheater if you can’t search so if you can’t even search for this software beat it.


1. VMware Workstation 5.5.2
You can download this from
You will also need a serial this is: ****-****-****-**** (if this one
Doesn’t work find your own Wink)*Edit By: Wh005h - It won't work you'll have to register it on your own sorry... pretty sure everyone is capable of it lol
2. Next on the list is Windows XP. How to get this isn’t hard. Go to any torrent site and just
search or download it from usenet not that hard either. If there are enough people that
request it I might upload it somewhere Wink .
3. You also need the newest driver software for your graphics card. Commonly used are:
NVIDIA drivers are available at
ATI drivers are available at



That’s al folks lets to the step 2

[step2]
Step2: Prepare your host computer for VMware Workstation.

Ok this is the first actual step that you will perform some things.
You have downloaded the newest driver in step 1.
Now it’s time to install this driver.

After you have done this perform these steps to prepare a Windows 2000 or Windows XP host.
Make sure hardware acceleration is turned up in the display properties.
1. Right-click the desktop and choose Properties > Settings > Advanced > Troubleshoot.
2. Move the Hardware Acceleration slider all the way to the Fullposition.

(I would love to post a screenshot but im dutch and so I use a dutch windows I know allot of people who play Maple Story are dutch but hey allot are not so if someone could provide me a couple of good screenshots for this step thanks allot)

That’s all for step 2 not that hard.

[step3]
Step 3: Install VMware Workstation.

This one cant be hard either you have now prepared your host system for VMware Workstation and it is time to install it.

Start the installation file and follow the steps most of it is clicking next in zombie mode not to hard.

[step4]
Set up a new Virtual PC.

If you see a screen that i havent posted it is unimportant what you can choose there and therefor you just have to click next when you see them Very Happy .

Now on to step 5

[step5]
Step 5: Install a Operating System on your newly made Virtual PC

Insert your installation disc of windows in your cd/dvd drive.
Select your newly made Virtual PC.
And click Start this virtual machine.
Make sure your working in the Virtual PC.
And press escape to go to the boot system.
There you have to choose “CD-ROM Drive”.
After that your windows installation will boot up.
This won’t be to hard just follow the steps on your screen to install Wndows.
After you have installed Windows, shut down your Virtual PC and close VMware Workstation.

Now go to step 6.

[step6]
Step 6: Change the Configuration file of your Virtual PC.

Ok in this step we are going change the Virtual PCs configuration file to enable the experimental 3D graphics card.

1] Open My Computer
2] Go to Tools > Folder Options
3] Select the View tab.
4] Look for Hide Extensions for known File Types. (No need for scrolling)
5] Disable Hide Extensions for known File Types and hit ok.

Go to c:\MSvirtual\ or any location that you stored your Virtual PC when you made it with the wizard.
There right click the .vmx file in my case that is Windows XP Professional.vmx .
(the .vmx file is always named to the operating system you have installed on your host system.)
And choose open with…
Then you choose notepad and click on open.
Now insert the following lines after: nvram = "Windows XP Professional.nvram" :
Code:
mks.enable3d = TRUE
svga.vramSize = 67108864
vmmouse.present = FALSE


After you did this save the file.
Then start VMware Workstation.
Go to Edit > preferences
Choose the tab: Input
Then deselect the option Ungrab when cursor leaves window..
Then press ok

Now your done with step 6.

[step7]
Step 7: Install VMware tools on your Operating System of your Virtual PC

Now we are going back to the Virtual PCs operating system.

First boot your Virtual PC
Then after it has booted choose vm>install VMware Tools… in the VMware Workstation.
Then choose Install
Now you will see that a installation program starts on your Virtual PC.
Choose next > select “complete” > next > install > finish
Then choose yes to reboot your Virtual PC.
After that install DirectX 9.0C
Do this by going to
A windows validation is required.

Ok your done now happy double mapling Very Happy.

FAQ


Q : How can i run MSbot on my virtual machine?

A: Change the DXwind settings so that your window of Maple Story will be 800 by 600. After that boot your bot and start Maple Story. Voila you can bot and autopot as much as you want. (credit for the solution goes to sheldon92.)

Q : Do you have a activation crack/serial or something like that?

Q : Ok for everyone who needs a serial, wga activation crack or has to get rid of the 30 days warning ****Edited Out By: Wh005h- Sorry guys this part wouldn't go well with the mods lol****
 
I tried using hotuk.ini, but it would disconnect me right away while playing a private server.

The DXWind didn't work either :|
 
Direct Version to hook: directx - directx6

Only other thing that is checked is DirectInput is Hooked.

[target]
path0=C:\Program Files\TriglowPictures\PristonTale\dPT.exe
ver0=1
flag0=16
initx0=0
inity0=0
minx0=0
miny0=0
maxx0=639
maxy0=479

Thanks
 
Strange, try these settings

DirectX6

[target]
path0=E:\Program Files\TriglowPictures\PristonTale\BNFPT.exe
ver0=1
flag0=0
initx0=0
inity0=0
minx0=0
miny0=0
maxx0=639
maxy0=479

I am having no problems just selecting DirectX six, and not enabling any other items.
 
Ahh I had tried DxWnd with a friend and we couldn't get it to work
Sorry ^_^ I didn't do any reading lol, I just assumed normal clients still couldn't be windowed =p

O well it's still a pretty interesting guide either way ^_^
 
I'll use it as a last resort, if DxWnd really doesn't work for me.

HappyHardcore, are you using ePT client?

Thanks.
