SRL Archive - News and General

Most of you probably already know this, but I was banned/quit RS/scripting. But I don't want to quit Simba/SRL.

So my question to you is: what's something else (doesn't have to be a game) that Simba can be applied to?

I'd love to work some more with Pascal but I just don't know what to do & I've stagnated after quitting RS.

Ask @hoodz; for the game he was scripting for, I forget the name of it.

If you are open to learning a new language you'll have a lot more things to do. I don't know of anything else that uses Pascal.

PHP/HTML/CSS/SQL:

You can make websites and databases. I've only really done this in the context of SRL/Runescape, but you could do it with anything.

Java:

You could make Java applications and Android apps. It's a lot harder than making scripts, but it would be more usefull and there are less constraints on what you can do.

And there are other languages which are probably better/more useful, those are just what I've tried. Hopefully you find something that you enjoy :)

Eldevin would prolly be a nice choice.

I would invest your time in learning a new language

Here's another vote for learning a new language altogether. You've learned Pascal already, there's no point trying to learn more about it when you can't really use it for much. I'd personally recommend Java since you can use whatever is left of your interest in RuneScape as a motivator, and then use the knowledge you've gained learning Java to learn C, C++, and C#. Java is almost just another C language, and the syntax is similar enough that you shouldn't have any problems with them.

You could also go down the web development path and learn RoR, HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript/CoffeeScript/JQuery/Ajax, SQL, etc.

There's a billion programming languages out there, find one that you can learn while associating it with an interest (like you did with Pascal and RS) and go for it. ;)

Pascal is very commonly used language, it extends far beyond runescape (simba uses lape as well.. but its pretty much pascal if you don't think about it).

If you're a hobbyist computer programmer, I would move on to a new language. If you are maybe looking to get a job doing computer programming, I would look deeper through pascal and finalize the knowledge you already have. Confidently knowing pascal would look really good on a resume.

If you truly want to stick with Simba, then I recommend Eldevin or picking any other game of your own choice to create scripts for. To achieve members, I really only feel the need to be a community member, a good scripter, and have proven knowledge of SRL/Pascalscript/Lape (past scripts are fine by me); so an application with a game other than RS would be fine by me (keep in mind, I can't speak for all possible voters).

If you want to become a better programmer, then I recommend moving to Java/C#. They're both used a ton industry wide, they're very extensible, and they're almost the exact same, with a few exceptions (that I personally feel favor C# outside of ease of use on Mac, which favors Java). Pascalscript is a fairly un-used, and only becoming more-so, language.

i learned java this summer, and i liked that. But i learned scripting here, with pascal script and will keep doing it because i like it :)

I have been using Simba to play Iphone games over the past few years. There have been a few Facebook games that I used it for as well. The nice thing about Simba, is that its more than just a mouse clicking program. What other games do you play?

How do you play iphone games with it?

i suppose he runs iphone emulator on pc and uses simba? just guessing

No, I jail broke my iphone and use veency and tight vnc to use my iphone from my computer. Essentially, its like using a remote desktop but for your phone….

You can amuse with APPA to make script for flash game.
You can write some .dll to expand Simba's capabilities, in either Pascal or C++.
You can learn some Java and modify SMART to run another game.

Thanks for all the input guys. I'm torn between sticking with Simba (Eldevin) and learning a new language (C#).

What would be a good C# resource?

I used to write some neopet scripts for their flash games. I gained a lot of high scores. That was when you could get away with the mouse pointer teleporting from 1 coord to another :)

I remember when neopets scripts came packaged with scar/srl ;)

E: Wow you're the first person I've seen with the banned from blackmarket cup :D

Embarrassing I know - I shouldn't have it. I also lost my old timer rank.:mad:

Only member's can have that rank. Are you saying you used to be mem and got demoted?

I love C#. Hands down my favorite language. That said, I don't see tremendous use in it as a botting platform, unless you found an existing platform that already uses it (which I'd be interested in).

WT-Fakawi gave me that rank in 2009. I always assumed it was called SRL - Old Timer because the forums used to be called srl forums.
