How do I find my computer ID for the license?
You usually do not need it in advance: the program shows the ID on first launch. To get it right away, press Win+R, type powershell and paste this command:
(Get-ItemProperty 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Cryptography').MachineGuidCopy the line that appears and send it to the bot. The ID changes after reinstalling Windows, and the key has to be reissued.
What computer does the bot run on?
On the Windows PC where the game runs. The bot controls the game through the screen and keyboard, so the game window must be open.
Which fishing styles are supported?
All of them: float, bottom, match and the rest. Boat trolling along a route and crafting are included.
Which game language is supported?
Both the Russian and the English game clients are fully supported. The program window language can be switched in the launcher itself (RU/EN).
Is there a risk of an account ban?
The game may treat automation as a rules violation, and there is no guarantee against penalties. You use the bot at your own risk.
How do updates and new features arrive?
The program updates itself automatically: new features, routes and fixes arrive without reinstalling. Updates work only with an active license key and are included in the license price at no extra cost.
What if something does not work?
Message us on Telegram (the contact comes with your key) and attach the bot log, it helps find the problem faster.
How does payment work and when do I get the key?
Choose a plan in the Telegram bot and transfer the exact amount using the QR code. Press “I paid”: we check the transfer manually. After confirmation the bot sends the installer, and once you send it your computer ID it issues the license.key file. If the key has not arrived within 24 hours, email rf4-bot@yandex.ru and include the time of your transfer.
The license term starts when the key is issued. When you renew, the new term is added to the end of your current license.
Can I use the key on two computers? What if I reinstall Windows?
A license is tied to one computer. After reinstalling Windows or changing computers the ID changes: message us and we will issue a key for the new ID at no extra charge, and your license term is kept.
How do I renew my license?
You can renew in the same Telegram bot, the previous computer is selected with one button, and the new term is added to the remaining one.
My antivirus flags the installer or the program
Programs that emulate input sometimes trigger false positives. The bot's source code is open and can be reviewed on GitHub. If needed, add the program folder to the Windows Defender exclusions.
Can I get a refund?
Before the key is issued we refund the full amount. After issue we refund the unused part of the term if the program does not start or does not work through our fault and we could not fix it. Full conditions are in the terms (in Russian).
