    I received the identical error, but only when inserting certain libraries. As in your case, the library was ultimately added and worked fine. However, I will buckle down and examine this error in a more concise detail and get back to you on it. My initial thought was that the keygen is not at the root of the problem, but I don't want to speak too soon. In the meantime, maybe Celtic or someone else can add his thoughts on the issue.

    Buf. Impossible to reply something with absolute security.

    First of all, I used MINI-NICNT no more than 25 times. What I wanted is no one library registered with KLM3. Personal dislike to this tool and mainly, if I have to register again the 1600 and more libraries, I want all of them with nicnt for doing it as quick as possible. 200 or 300 every time. And I got it by the moment. When you make a tutorial about a tool that you pretend others believe is yours (MINI-NICNT is not developed by the author of the tutorial), is evident that you don´t show the errors. But as you said, library works altough the error messages. Not always, by the way, but is different to have 200 libraries that have more than 1600 as myself and break your head looking for SNPID ranges not in use yet.

    I found also that error message that you include on your post, but, as you said, when we used this tool by the first times we surprised and thought that there was any problem with the tool or the library and came back to KLM3. But not. You and me and other suppose discovered that library stayed registered and added to tab. NOT IN ALL CASES. Maybe two or three really were unable to add to tab. What to do in this case? In my experience, change completely the range of SNPID in library and using a template I found on the net called "example.nicnt". From this template, I change name of template (you put name you want for library), and editing with Notepad++, change Name, Regkey (same name for both) and SNPID. If you use 45f, for instance, use fd9. Or any other. Remember always combinations a-f and 1-9. And never use three numbers like 225. Three numbers are used by the most of the official libraries and you can repeat Symphony Essentials Brass Ensemble, for example, and you lost both libraries.

    Another detail, discussed in other thread from this forum, is the utility of Kontakt Keygen. I must specify that I don´t see the utility of this. No one of the official libraries (hard to see a Bela D Media library on Kontakt keygen tool) stop to work without this keygen, and the one utility I see for is that Activate button ovbiously disappear. But I don´t need that and library with activate button enabled works the same.

    I insist, my personal opinion.

    No, I don´t think that is due to the keygen. I think is Kontakt version. I don´t use it and I don´t think in use until error messages like which appears on Ilya Efimov Hulusi saying that your Kontakt version is too old for that library will be permanent. As I show you here:

    [​IMG]

    This message only appeared one time and NYCGRIFF and me are checking why appears if Kontakt 5.6.0 or 5.6.1 is completely new and recent in time for this. But I had no time to check it in other of my computers. I consider the posibility of the Kontakt keygen, but I can´t find the relation between one thing and other. And Kontakt keygen is so limitated, as you can see in this thread there are wallpapers for libraries that probably Native Instruments don´t know that exists. It seems improbably to me. Keygen is only for the most known libraries, not for conversions from Zero-G multiformat as I have at least 45. Activate button will be always present on these libraries.

    You say yourself. You have lots of entries on the registry from libraries that you haven´t. That could be a problem, maybe delete registry keys from libraries not present in your Kontakt tab, but it seems sci-fi for me. Try to return to 5.5.2 R2R version, not Tracer (bad cracked) and see how works.

    Don´t be troubled for activated or not activated libraries. Libs will work fine the same. I said this too in the thread because is this way, but every one has his own preferences. What I can say is that I have registered on Service Center 1450 libraries and all, except 4, work properly. And this detail is something that the rest of the people can´t say. I made about 800 nicnt files by myself, and this is other detail that nobody else can say what I have knowledge. These are the real things.

    Many questions in you post (not a critic). The last one I think. You use MINI-NICNT. It appears success message or error message. Doesn´t mind. You open Kontakt and add the library to the tab. You have to check that s3.tmp file appears on desktop, and later you check the library is added. That should be like this the 99% of times. If s3.tmp appears but library not, close Kontakt, delete s3.tmp file and reopen Kontakt. Lib should be there. If not, check all the libraries one by one. Maybe repeated SNPID, you can see it on screen, "Library not found". If not, delete .xml file from Service Center folder, edit NICNT file and change the value of SNPID. I´ve done this with all my libs, and only failed 4.

    Buuuuufffff second time. Any other question or help (we are not 20 users for making wallpapers) you know where we are.

    I think is a good moment for check if the error message in Hulusi persists with other new library.

    Embertone Recorders please. And thanks.

    i needs to correct you once again , Bela D Media Librarys at this time are Kontakt Librarys and not Kontakt Player Librarys , so it will be never within any Keygen .

    i was thinking that you learned now in the meanwhile at least the difference between Kontakt Librarys and Kontakt Player Librarys .

    they just show up but they are 100 percent not real registered or activated .

    Knowledge ? i dont see much , except download and collect Kontakt Librarys , i see many many times not correct or false things you are talking about .

    Thanks for your reply: I'm glad you mentioned the s3.tmp file on the desktop. Was wondering if that was normal. I do have one that appears after every library I add and I usually delete it from the desktop. This ok?

    NYCGRIFF: I notice you make alot of wallpapers... what are the max dimensions for use with the updated Kontakt 5.6? And what's the size of the "safe zone" (the portion that will be visible)?

    The s3.tmp can be opened directly with a double click and you can see a reduced version from a NICNT file. It´s the way to register library on Service Center. You can register 10 libraries and only will see the last register. The important is the xml file that is stored on Service Center Folder. But it is a way for beginning to be sure about the library has been registered. But not always. In some libraries (no more than 10) I didn´t see appear the s3.tmp file but yes appeared the library on tab. But this is an exception. One of the many exceptions ok Kontakt.

    Sorry, I didn´t reply the last. Yes, this Ok. The file loses its utility when library appears on tab. Go for the next :wink:

    Exactly. If you don´t run as admin, the tool can´t write on registry.

    That's a good question. Unfortunately, I had some major issues with the installation of the latest "update", so I cannot be sure. However, I would imagine that the dimensions (maximum/minimum) are going to be pretty much the same as in previous versions. After all, they are still going to have to accommodate the library wallpapers that you already own (large or small). That being said, I plan on installing 5.6 on another computer later in the week, then I'll be able to answer your question with certainty.

    Hi everybody! I have a question. What are the steps to make a library collection? For example, all 3 Trio Broz from Fluffy Audio? I have made some nicnt of individual libraries but I dont know how to do it with "collections". Thanks for all!

    Celtic has a fairly easy method for doing these. He will give you the complete rundown.

    Not difficult.

    Create a folder with the name you want for your collection
    Inside that folder, copy the three libraries, Violin, Cello and Viola if I´m not wrong that may be.
    Respect the structure of the three folders you copied. In these folders you have to find Instruments and Samples, appart from Documentation if you want and in this case a Data folder. As I can see in the libraries, they have a .nkc and .nkr file. Let them as they are.
    In the main folder, you have to create the nicnt file with the name you wish and making the changes editing nicnt with Notepad++. Or you can use MINI-NICNT utility that NYCGRIFF published here. And you can choose among the wallpapers published here too.
    That´s all. Open Kontakt in standalone mode and as admin (you have to make the change in the shorcut on desktop you should have under Win7 x64, for instance) and add the library to the tab.

    When library appear, check them. Often Kontakt will ask you for missing files because the original structure is not what you have in the new collection. The way to change this is very easy. Take a look.

    The step 1 is for activate the option. The step 2 is for looking THE FOLDER YOU CREATED. You have to do this only once in the collection. When you check the other instruments, will look for them automatically and load them.

    NYCGRIFF, when you can a wallpaper for Zero-G Popcorn. It´s a multiformat but you know...

    And Vibe Funk Force 5 if there is graphical material for doing it, I can´t remember if you explained me something about this concrete library or other.

    Too things at the same time.

    Hi Celtic, some days ago I tried to add a couple of libraries this way, but I couldn't.

    when I add the library and open one .nki (of the added library created by me), it says (for SAMPLE MODELING collection library) "This patch is encrypted and cannot be loaded unless the respective Library is registrered properly" and (for EMBERTONE STRINGS collection, always made by me) "Your new Library needs to be added before this Instrument can be used. Please go to Kontakt's Libraries tab and press the Add Library button".

    note that Sample Modeling lib has ACTIVATE button, while EMBERTONE's hasn't.

    I have another library with ACTIVATE button: Premier factory Mark I, which I added BEFORE I upgraded to 5.5.2, from 5.5.0 (if I remember well). Now I'm on 5.5.2.
