Frequently Asked Questions

The program crashes immediately when I try to run it.

• Possible solution 1: you are missing some runtime libraries. Please try installing Visual C++ Redistributable, .NET Framework 4.8 and restart the program.
• Possible solution 2: your CPU instruction set is incompatible. This project requires PaddleOCR to do the image recognition, which requires AVX instruction set that is supported by only some of the newly-released CPUs, while others may not support it. You can also try downloading PaddleOCR NoAVX version, unzip and replace the files with the same names. Since it may cause performance drop, please do not use it unless it is necessary.
  (CPU-Z is a tool that provides check of existence of AVX instruction set.)
• If those solutions above do not work, please submit an issue to us.

Connection error/not knowing how to fill in ADB path

Tips: please refer to the Usage section to ensure that you are using your simulator correctly.

• Approach 1: find the installation path of your simulator, where there may be a file named adb.exe (or something similar, e.g. nox_adb.exe, HD-adb.exe, adb_server.exe, etc., EXE files with adb). Simply choose the file in the connection settings of MAA!
• Approach 2: please refer to the [Custom Connection](#Custom Connection) section.
• Approach 3: change another simulator, such as Bluestacks international version Nougat 64 bit
• Approach 4: change the code related. You can find the code here written in C# which is related to the hook on the simulator process and getting ADB path. Feel free to submit PR to us!

Wrong Recognition/Program freezes after starting

Tip 1: The Current Stage of auto battle that costs Sanity requires you to go to the screen with the start button. Please confirm they are not related. Tip 2: Follow the steps below until the problem is solved.

1. Confirm that your simulator is supported in the [List of the Supported Simulators](List of the Supported Simulators.md).
2. Change the DPI to 320 dpi.
3. Change the resolution to landscape, 1280 * 720.
4. Try with another simulator, such as Bluestacks international version Nougat 64 bit. (Please note that you are required to switch on ADB in Bluestack simulator.)
5. Submit an issue to us if the problem still exists.

Custom Connection

• Download adb and unzip it.
• Go to Settings - Connection Settings, and select the location of adb.exe, fill in the address of ADB (with the format of IP+port, e.g. 127.0.0.1:5555), and choose the type of your simulator.

ADB already exists in the environment variable. Do I stil need to download it?

You need not do so! Go to Settings - Connection Settings, and set ADB path to adb.exe, or other relative path.
