IS there a way in Pokefarmer to save settings or device Profiles?
- Thread starter baddna

Your setting is saved in setting.json file inside the cache folder. Your password and key is also stored in it, so don't let anyone see this file. Starting location, setting, etc. It's also fairly easy to modify this using notepad.
So the quick answer is yes. Just create multiple files and rename it to your acountname.json (you can use copy and paste to create from original and just modify it by running PF) But pokefarmer will only use the one with setting.json name. So whenever you are ready to switch to a different account, you have to rename that accountname.json to Settings.json
Or are you talking about saving different setttings and profiles within the program itself? That would be a good suggestion, like abiity to save at least 5 setttings? Or how about the ability to change the settings while the bot is running, and not without exiting? How about pausing the bot without stopping it so that you can transfer, evolve, power up while the bot is on pause? Good suggestions, go for it!

A way to save a profile within the software GUI would be great. As your would your suggestions!
But thank you, I can probably make use of the json files as your suggest....That will save me a ton of time!

Or just make different folder like poke1, poke2..poke3 (copy pokefarmer folder and paste ist )...
Then make your settings in every folder for an other acc
Make shortcuts to pokefarmer.exe in folder poke1 to your desktop and call it maybe poke1, then make a shortcut to pokefarmer in folder poke2 to your desktop and call it poke2 and so on.
Then you have a shortcut to every acc you have direktly on your desktop and you just have to start the right shortcut and dont have to change filename everytime

That's actually faster and more time saving and less work. Just copy the entire program into different folders named after each account.
Mine actually looks like
Each directory is 135 MB each at least, so if you're hurting for space, maybe not a good idea.

For me It is easier to create separate .json bacup files and overwriting settings.json every time you switch users
So many ways to do it.
The first one takes less space, but renaming json file everytime that you want to switch account is cumbersome and takes too long
The second method is quick, all you have to do is change directory, and run it. But it takes too much space, 130 MB minimum for every account that you want to use.
If you want to have the advantage of both, fast, simple, and less space without changing directory, just create a batch file using notepad for every account.
Suppose that I have three accounts and I want to bot on different locations with different settings. All you have to do is create three batch files, (Account1, Account2, Account3) and three .json files( Account1.json, Account2.json, Account3.json)
To create Json files,
1. just run pokefarmer normally, and create your settings including location
2. close pokefarmer and go to Cache directory
3. Rename settings.json to Account1.json
4. Run pokefarmer again and create your next setting for second account using different location
5. close pokefarmer, and go to Cache directory
6. rename the newly created setting.json to Account2.json
7. Do this few more times until you reached the desired number of settings you want to use.
Everytime that you run pokefarmer, it will create a new setting.json file
after three times, your Cache directory should look like this:
now that you have three account.json files, you can create a batch file for each account
1. Open notepad
2. Enter the following information:
cd cache
copy Account1.json settings.json
cd..
Pokefarmer
they are all DOS commands
--the first line will change you from main PF directory(folder) to Cache subdirectory(subfolder)
--the second line will copy and overwrite the last known setting.json with your your saved account setting while preserving the original account.json file
--third line will put you back from Cache folder to PF main folder
--fourth line will simply execute the Pokefarmer program, but this time, loading your saved settings.
Then save as RunAccount1.bat
do this few more times, until you have enough batch files to match the number of your json files. Just use copy and paste this time, but make sure that you rename each files, and you also have to edit each one of them and replace Account1.json to Account2.json, and so on, and so forth.
your directory should look like this
So, next time that you want to run specific account, all you have to do is click on that batch file, and not the Pokefarmer program. You can also create a short cut to your desktop. PF will open using your desired setting and coordinates.
For me, this is the easiest way than renaming each .json file everytime, the batch file will do this for you. It's also better than copying the entire directory since it will save you space, each batch file is only 267 bytes versus 135 MB.
Pokefarmer bot is down right now, but the program is not, and you can still try this.
Just rename Account 1, 2, 3 to your desired account name at your own liking, or you can use setting 1, setting2, settting3, etc...

I was so worried to fill my 3Tb hard drive with pokefarmer folders .
When you have multiple accounts and multiple PokeFarmer keys it's indispensable to use different folders, other wise you can't run instances of PF.
Lucky you, but maybe not everyone has 3Tb. My laptop for one only has 200 Gb
Sure you can. You can run MS word, Excel, etc.. multiple times. Same goes with pokefarmer, it doesn't matter if you only have one directory and one pokefarmer. You can click on the app as many as you can and it will open independently just as many. You just need to enter different authorization key for each one of them. It doesn't matter if you made several copies under three directories, it is still the same program. But if you are going to use the batch file that you created above, you don't even need to reenter it because it is also saved in the json file. The .json is only used at startup and not when the bot is running, and it is overwritten as soon as you run a different instances.
