Downloading & Installing

The client can be downloaded from the Official Website's download section.

On the download page, select the file corresponding to your operating system.

NOTE: To run the installation on Windows, a version equal to or higher than Windows 7 is required.
If you have a version older than Windows 7, install it using the Linux file.

Once installed, open the client so that it can perform the necessary downloads and updates. When finished, restart the client.

First login to the client

Once installed, when you log in to the client for the first time, an e-mail will be sent to the e-mail address registered when you created the account, containing a link to authorize the computer.

This is a common procedure to ensure greater security for players. Authentication is only necessary the first time you log in to your computer; if you use another computer, you will need to authenticate again.
If you have played PokeXGames in the previous version of the game client and have already carried out the authentication procedure, you will need to do it again in order to use the current client.

Setting up the Client

Backup

The client allows you to make or restore a backup of your map, markers and settings.
This will happen automatically during the first opening if you have already played PokeXGames in the previous version of the game client.
If the backup is not restored automatically, you can do it manually.

Loading map and settings

In the top menu bar, click on options (or use the predefined shortcut O).

After opening the options menu, select Backup.

After selecting the Backup option, select the Upload option.

Next, you need to find the client's settings folder and copy its address.
If you have installed it in the default folder, just follow the path shown in the image below. Otherwise, you need to look for the folder in your files.

Remember that you need to forward it to the folder containing the minimap and settings files.

With the address in hand, fill in the field on the client and select the information you want to upload, then click Upload.

Remember that where it says YOUR USER is the name that is registered on your computer.

Saving map and settings

In the top menu bar, click on options (or use the predefined shortcut O).

After opening the options menu, select Backup.

After selecting the Backup option, select the Save option

Then create a folder or select any existing folder path on your computer.
Once you've finished, copy the folder's location address as shown in the image:

With the address in hand, paste it into the designated area on the client, select the options you want to save and then click Save

Remember that where it says YOUR USER is the name that is registered on your computer.

It's important to remember that this backup saves your action bar shortcuts, hotkeys and other settings.
Remember to check all the options for a complete backup.

Hotkeys

To edit and customize all hotkeys in the game, open the top menu and click on options.

Then select the Hotkeys option.

You can also use the predefined hotkey K to open the Hotkeys menu directly.

General considerations about hotkeys

You can define up to 3 hotkeys for the same action, these being Primary, Secondary or Tertiary.
Each hotkey can only perform one action, i.e. it is not possible for the same hotkey to perform different functions.
Some hotkeys come pre-defined, but you can change them according to your preference.
When adding or changing a hotkey, if the new option is already aligned with a hotkey, a message will be displayed informing you to confirm the change. The hotkey will then be removed from the previous action and added to the new one.

Gameplay hotkeys

In the gameplay hotkeys menu, you can find the categories Moves, Action Bar, Pokémon, Movement, Turn, Battle Modes, Fly Controls, and Game Actions.

Moves, are the hotkeys for using the pokémon's moves without having to click on them in the moves bar.
Action Bar, hotkeys for using the action bar slots
Pokémon, are the pokémon's command hotkeys. This sub-section contains the hotkeys for calling your pokémon via the simple exchange interface, as well as the commands for moving, order and keeping the pokémon still.
Movement, in this category you'll find the character's movement commands, the default setting allows you to move using the arrow keys and also the WASD keys.
Turn, are the commands to turn your pokémon to the desired position.
Battle Modes, quickly switch between the available battle modes (Offensive, Balanced and Defensive).
Fly Controls, hotkeys to toggle up or down the floors during the flight.
Game Actions, you can change the hotkeys for collecting loot (auto loot), the command to open a report to a GameMaster, and also other basic settings such as exiting the game or talking to the nearest NPC.

Interface hotkeys

in the interface hotkeys, there are options for Toggle Visibility, Chat, Minimap, and Interface Actions.

In Toggle Visibility you can choose hotkeys for actions such as: opening the diamond store, the minimap, inventory and other basic game actions.
In the Chat hotkeys, you can modify shortcuts for sending messages, opening and closing channels, or moving back and forth between channels, for example.
In Minimap, you will find options for moving the minimap using keyboard hotkeys instead of the mouse.
Finally, under Interface Actions you'll find screen options, such as hotkeys for clearing messages on the screen, quickly switching between the current and legacy interfaces, and also for setting the game to full screen or windowed mode.
- The Toggle Side Panel Phantom option is present, with the function of making the side panels translucent, so that movement or clicks can be performed without the items placed on the panels interfering.

Messages hotkeys

You can add hotkeys to send messages quickly, without having to type them every time. By default, there is no pre-defined hotkey for messages, all of which must be created by the player if desired.

In the hotkey menu, select the Add Message option.

Write the message you want and check the box for automatic sending, as shown in the image. Click on Confirm.

Then you must choose a key for the hotkey of the desired message. Select the key and click Ok.

This way, every time you press the selected hotkey, the message will be sent automatically in the chat.

The graphic interface menu offers the following customization possibilities:
