Introduced	Unknown Introduction

ThumbnailGenerator is the service RCCService uses to render its thumbnails.

string Click(string format, int x, int y, bool hideSky)

This will render the image. x and y are the resolution, format is the format of the image that will be outputted (can be 'PNG', 'GIF', 'BMP', and some others). It will return the image encoded in Base64.

Trustcheck Registry Entry

In some early versions of RCCService, you can disable the trustcheck by going into your registry editor and editing key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Roblox. Add a DWORD value named "SkipTrustCheck" and set the value to 1, or some non-zero value. Alternatively, this .reg file can be used:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Roblox]
"SkipTrustCheck"=dword:00000001

Save it as something like skiptrustcheck.reg, and then add it to your registry.
