If the renaming doesnt work, too do this: in PokemonGo-Bot/pokemongo_bot edit the file __init__.py and replace this self.api.activate_signature("encrypt.so") with this encrypt_path = os.path.abspath("./encrypt.so") self.api.activate_signature(encrypt_path) Regards

@ErrorFlexXx @tomalbrc thanks alot to u 2

here a full fix

ok listen up what u have to do if u are on linnux or mac

Basically you need to rename the libencrypt.so file the makefile outputs to encrypt.so and copy it to your main folder

Run: wget http://pgoapi.com/pgoencrypt.tar.gz && tar -xf pgoencrypt.tar.gz && cd pgoencrypt/src/ && make && mv libencrypt.so encrypt.so

Then copy encrypt.so into your bots main folder.

if that does not work edit in PokemonGo-Bot/pokemongo_bot edit the file __init__.py and replace this self.api.activate_signature(“encrypt.so”) with this encrypt_path = os.path.abspath(“./encrypt.so”) self.api.activate_signature(encrypt_path) Regards

like i did here, i commet #self.api.activate_signature(“encrypt.so”) and add
encrypt_path = os.path.abspath(“./encrypt.so”) self.api.activate_signature(encrypt_path) http://image.prntscr.com/image/4fc363635d404637b6c3e797cfa13306.png
