GUIDE & SUPPORT

Everything you need
to get running.

Step-by-step setup, a full usage walkthrough, keyboard shortcuts, troubleshooting, and direct access to support — all in one place.

Setup

Get Aegis installed and ready on a fresh machine in under two minutes.

01

Download the zip

Grab Aegis.zip from the Download page. Save it anywhere — your Desktop, Downloads folder, wherever is convenient.

02

Extract the zip

Right-click Aegis.zipExtract All. Choose a permanent folder — do not run Aegis directly from inside the zip. A folder like C:\Aegis\ works well.

⚡ Keep all files together. Aegis.exe, Aegis.png, and aegis_bootstrapper.bat must be in the same folder.
03

Place the bootstrapper

Drop aegis_bootstrapper.bat into the same folder as Aegis.exe. This file runs silently when Aegis starts and sets up what it needs. If it's missing, Aegis will show you exactly where to put it.

04

Add an antivirus exclusion (if needed)

Self-contained executables sometimes trigger heuristic AV flags. If Windows Defender quarantines Aegis.exe, add the Aegis folder to your exclusions: Windows Security → Virus & threat protection → Manage settings → Exclusions → Add a folder.

05

Launch Aegis.exe

Double-click Aegis.exe. You'll see a short boot splash (Bootstrapping → Verifying → Loading → Ready), then the main window opens. No install wizard, no .NET install required.

Using Aegis

The main workflow from launch to execution.

1

Open or create a script

From the Start page, click + New script to open a blank editor tab. Or click any script in the Explorer sidebar on the left to open an existing one.

2

Write or paste your script

Type or paste Luau code into the editor. The editor shows line numbers, has an acid-green caret, and supports standard text editing shortcuts. Tabs are preserved.

3

Launch your game

Open Roblox and get into a game. Aegis needs a running game client before it can inject.

4

Click Attach

Press the ↪ Attach button in the top-right of Aegis. The status bar at the bottom will update from No client to show a connected state once hooking succeeds.

5

Click Run ▶

Once attached, hit the acid-green ▶ Run button. Your script executes in the game. Watch the Console panel at the bottom for output and errors.

💡 You can run scripts again without re-attaching. Attach once per game session — it stays hooked until the game closes or you restart Aegis.

The Editor

Everything you need to know about writing and managing code.

FeatureDescription
Line numbersDisplayed in the left gutter. Stays in sync with your scroll position.
Multi-tabOpen multiple scripts at once using the + button in the tab bar. Each tab holds its own code independently.
Tab renameRight-click the script in the sidebar → Rename. The tab label updates automatically.
Acid caretThe text cursor is styled in Aegis green. Selections highlight with a soft green tint.
Monospace fontConsolas is used throughout the editor for clear, readable code.
Left-edge pulseA subtle acid-green flash on the editor's left border fires on every keystroke — visual feedback that input is registered.
Auto-save to tabCode is saved to the tab in memory as you type. Switching tabs and returning preserves your code for the session.
⚠️ Script tabs are held in memory only. If you close Aegis, unsaved scripts are lost. Copy important scripts to a .luau file externally if you want to keep them long-term.

Console

The console panel shows real-time output from script execution.

Clear button

Wipes all console output. The panel fades out and back in smoothly.

Collapse / expand

Collapses the console to just its toolbar bar. Click again to restore. Useful when you need more editor space.

×

Close

Hides the console entirely. It reopens the next time you switch to a script tab.

···

Typing indicator

Three pulsing dots appear in the console while Aegis is processing or while you're actively typing code. They disappear automatically when idle.

Managing Scripts

The Explorer sidebar gives you full control over your script library.

ActionHow to do it
New scriptClick + in the tab bar, or + New script on the Start page.
Open scriptClick any script in the Explorer sidebar, or on the Start page under Recent Scripts.
RenameRight-click the script in the sidebar → ✏ Rename. Type the new name and press Enter.
DuplicateRight-click → 📋 Duplicate. Creates a copy with "(copy)" appended to the name.
Execute directlyRight-click → ▶ Execute. Opens the script and runs it immediately.
DeleteRight-click → 🗑 Delete. A confirmation dialog appears before deletion.
Filter scriptsType in the Filter scripts box at the top of the sidebar. The list narrows in real time.
Collapse sidebarClick the arrow at the top of the Explorer. Click to restore it.

Troubleshooting

Common issues and how to fix them.

!

"aegis_bootstrapper.bat was not detected"

The popup shows you the exact path where the bootstrapper needs to be. Place aegis_bootstrapper.bat in that folder, then relaunch Aegis.exe.

!

Windows Defender quarantined Aegis.exe

Self-contained .NET executables frequently trigger heuristic AV. Go to Windows Security → Virus & threat protection → Protection history, find the quarantined file, and click Restore. Then add the Aegis folder to exclusions so it isn't flagged again.

!

Attach doesn't work / status stays "No client"

Make sure Roblox is fully loaded into a game (not just the launcher or home screen). Try attaching again after you're inside a game world. If it still fails, rejoin the game and try again.

!

Script ran but nothing happened in-game

Check the console for error output. Common causes: the script references a service that isn't loaded yet, or the game has anti-cheat that blocked execution. Try a simple print("test") first to confirm the hook is working.

!

Aegis crashed or won't open

Make sure you extracted the zip fully — running from inside the zip itself causes crashes. Also verify Aegis.png is in the same folder as Aegis.exe. If the issue persists, ask in Discord with a screenshot.
