ProjectPact Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 (edited) Project's random.dat Remover Tool version 0.6 Download Link: https://www.pposb.org/PPOSB/tools/tools.html CLI Flags: "-quick" and "-complete" What does this program do exactly? As some of you might know, RuneScape places various files on your computer. One of their most notable ones is called, "random.dat." Within this file, it is believed to hold pertinent information regarding information about your account. It is recommended to delete this random.dat file from your computer to help secure the safety of your accounts. Maxi, one of the OSBot founders, has high suspicions that this file holds valuable information regarding things such as your ip address, or other types of computer/account tracking variables. Why is this a bad thing? If your account/ip has been flagged, the random.dat file grants Jagex an easier way to continue monitoring your account(s) made under the same, or closely related, ip address. This program is designed to delete that random.dat file, as well as other Jagex files, from your computer to help lower your chances of being chain banned, or detected. How to use this program This is NOT a script. It is a stand-alone Java program that can be ran anywhere on your computer. All you do is open the application and you will be prompted with the main menu. You will see that there are two different types of removals. You can choose between a Quick removal, or a Complete removal. The Quick removal only focuses on random.dat and jagex_cl_oldschool_LIVE.dat files. The Complete removal will target all of Jagex's files, which includes their cache. This means that once you delete their cache, you will be prompted to reinstall it when starting the client up again. This can be done by opening the client via OSBot or OSBuddy (some users have reported that opening the client via the official RuneScape version does not work, however others have said it worked perfectly). Once the cache is re-downloaded, you may run the official RuneScape client again. How often should you run this program I personally do the Quick removal occasionally before starting up a client, and recommend running the Complete removal tool after ANY ban that may occur. Little known facts about the random.dat file The deletion of the random.dat file is known to be associated with the ability to multi-login, as well as bypassing the login error, "Login Limit Exceeded." Graham, a trust member of the RS and RSPS community, stated that the random.dat file is basically used as a UID. This is how RuneScape is able to associate multiple accounts to your ip address. He also stated that when RuneScape makes their mass bans, they do it based on UID's, not ip's. Results after running the program's Complete removal (account is still alive 2 days later) This program does not promise that you will not be banned, it is designed to help lower your chances! This program does not edit any other files outside of your 'user' folder, and 'jagexcache' folder. ***As always, use at your own risk!

Chase Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Why does the client not implement this itself, I suspect @Alek and the rest of the osbot team have fully investigated this already? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This file has existed for many years, if it was used for bans before then its not used anymore. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Alek said, the random.dat file has been around for ages. Out of caution, primarily because none of us really know how it is used anymore, myself and many others prefer to remove it. It was proven to be linked with things such as login limits and account recognition from what many people found before. However, this program also targets other newer files that are created as well; some of which were starting to be found at a much later date than the random.dat file. On top of that, these files are created every time you open the client up, speculating that Jagex still uses these files one way or another.
