MSI

MSI is a group that focuses on creating group projects and getting people to work together to make leaner and meaner scripts then anyone could alone. The collaborative community of SRL isn't necissarily the best at working together, so MSI is here to get everyone to work together and get something more accomplished. People in general can learn from each other and what better way to learn from each other than by scripting together? MSI uses a public SvN although you must be registered by an MSI Administrator to be able to work on it although almost everyone will have the ability to do so.

The Administrators are as follows -

• Special Ed
• Smartzkid
• Dark_Sniper

MSI started as an idea of trying to get people to work together on group projects, are first being FCMB - Fish Chop Make & Bake, but over time and my absence people wandered off and the help FCMB and MSI received dwindled. Now we're back and I'm hoping to rekindle the once great idea of MSI and to get people involved and thinking of ideas that are big / bold / and require some advanced scripting. I am here to say that MSI is going to resume its past project of FCMB although, as it had happened, we are no longer going to use and MSI *include* for making script we will just be using SRL, but it will be a collaborative effort in making this.

As the "New" MSI title States…


M - Multi - Scripts – The only term that has lasted though the last six months, and that is Multi. My idea is that with this large of a collective intellect we can create scripts that will be able to train multiple skills without the need of a different script per skill like you'd normally find.

S - Superior - Scripts – Possibly one of the most defining factors of MSI, this being that quality of the scripts. Superiority is definitely a goal of MSI, we don’t mean to overshadow other people although I think with all the people in this community we can produce scripts that easily outlast, outmaneuver, and outperform current scripts that are made by just a single person.

I - Intelligent - Scripts – My personal favorite of the acronym MSI and also something that is very widespread throughout this community, Intelligence. I think that with all of us working together we can create a solution to any problem, even previously “unsolvable” randoms. ‘Nothing is impossible, only improbable.’ This is a quote from one of my favorite books “The Hitchhikers’ Guide to the Galaxy” and I definitely hold this statement in high regards especially within this community.

Although the original group of us Decided MSI would stand for Multi - Script Include I think that this new acronym fits MSI better. If anyone wants to voice their opinions on this feel free to do so, I enjoy hearing other peoples ideas and views on things.

There are essentially two separate groups within MSI although they can / do work together sometimes. The first being the MSI - Group Projects, where people will post / request ideas for Multi - Scripts and where people will discuss how to make them as well as work within the SvN on projects. The second group is the MSI Dev Project, this is where people will get together to create functions that are extremely beneficial to the SRL community but overall hard to make and extremely accurate. These functions are to be the best of the best, and are designed to be extremely accurate and efficient.

As my personal goal in scripting, I think that if we can create something that works, great. If we can create something that fools Jagex awesome, but if we can create something that can even fool ourselves, Incredible! I think that if we aim as high as the stars we can create the best of the best, and the most intelligent and creative functions of all.

I hope anyone and everyone who reads this will at least try to contribute to MSI, or at least keep their eyes open for upcoming events and projects. As long as you understand these words and keep your mind open to others’ ideals I know that we can accomplish the Improbable!

• If your interested in the MSI Dev's project please PM me and we'll talk.
• If anyone has any ideas or suggestions regarding this please post them.

The Dev project will be open to the public although the system it will follow is still under construction so if you'd like to work in that right now please PM me.

Get on ventrilo n00b.

Come on everybody!

EDIT: Nostalgia.

I'd be happy to help out if you guys would have me, as I'm not really working on anything right now other than school.

So, we need both ventrilo and source forge?

Alright! Thats what I like to hear, although your not very enthusiastic… lol :p

I'm glad to have you on the team, just work on whatever for now, if you like to be apart of the Dev program just PM me and we'll talk. As far as making multi - scripts the SvN is in need of some cleanup so I'll be working on that tomorrow after I get home from school.

From: Bourdou!

You don't "Need" Ventrilo but it is useful for staying in contact with people, but yes you do need SvN if you want to get the latest updates of current project or want to contribute. Although if you want to you can just post function on SRL if you really don't want to download anything.

alright maybe we can ask around and see if we cant get scar 3.12 to use repository for MSI ill check into this it would be uber elite :p

but probably not going to be possible until freddy starts liking our idea more :p

and if anyone wants to know I take the MSI-Devs into my "command".
we need some MSI-Devs… so dont hesitate.

You mean you need we need some MSI devs more than ye old ones?

If I remember right, there is about 20 of us? If no one has left.

Umm I have little improvements for your FindFish… xD

a) Why dont we use array of fish spot colors in there
b) ColorToleranceSpeed(0) doesnt have to be repeated.
c) Use FindColorsSpiralTolerance there instead of FindColorsTolerance so you dont need the part that sorts out if the spot is closest
d) You have FPColor which is being declared as 14858393 ten times there, and if you necassarily need a variable for it, why dont just put it in the start of proc and use with the above FindColorSpiralTolerance?

e) Maybe when sorting out the "fish box", not maybe like FishX - 3 etc, more like FishX - 10 etc, because the box is about 20 pixels.

Anyways, looks good and I believe it works.

Omg I really have to love my function to write 10 lines + this that I am atm writing.

Anyways, is there any functions that need to be maked atm? Ofcourse there is, but any finding etc..?

Im rly bored, need to code xD

Hey thanks for the feedback, and I'll work on that. As far as the sorting goes, I did it that way so the box is accurate, also the creating of the FishingArea is meant to get the edges of the spot so any more than 3 / 4 and it would find other fishing spots if they're next to it.

As far as functions that need to be made goes, I'll post a list here pretty quick, just need to take it on the MSI website.

Finding Functions / Procedures

FindFishingSpot - Done *Tweaking is Nice Though*
FindTree(TreeType: string); -
FindNPC(NPCName: string); - *Monsters start with low level and work up. (AutoColoring)*
FindRock(RockType: string); -
FindFire - *Kind of Done, but SRL's / MSI's isn't that Consistent*

Herblore Functions / Procedures

GetPotionMaterials(PotionType: string) array of string; - *Returns the Materials needed to make "PotionType"*
CheckPotionMaterials(PotionType: string):Boolean; - *Returns True if you have the correct ingredients to make "PotionType"*

Magic Functions / Procedures

Alchemy(Item: string; Amount: Integer; HighAlch: Boolean); - *Large amount of DTMs / Bitmaps / Bitmapmasks along with bank withdrawing*

Prayer Functions / Procedures

BuryBones(BoneType: string; Amount: Integer); - *Possibly with integrated bank withdrawing?*

Crafting Functions / Procedures

CutGem(GemType: string; Amount: Integer); - *Possibly with integrated bank withdrawing?*

Cooking Functions / Procedures

GetIngredients(Food: string); - *Returns ingredients needed to make "Food"*
CheckIngredients(Food: string):Boolean; - *Returns True if you have all ingredients to make "Food"*
Cook(Food: string; Amount: Integer; AtRange: Boolean); - *Probably made after "FindFire"*

I am interested, but could I just make it look pretty and add a pretty form?

From: Bourdou!

Yes, although I'm not quite sure what we need forms for right now, although that would probably come last in making a script, or at least towards the end. I think Bullzeye95 and Jukka are currently working on the Edgeville Man Raper, if you'd want to talk to them they could probably fill you in better than I can at the moment.

Ok will do

Whoa! I was going to ask about the form but remembered that you said we weren't going to use it!

Dang, anyways, if Bourdou needs help with form then I'll be happy to.

i just got a cool idea!

Im not sure if im right but if men drop copper&tin.. Theres a smelting place just east of the bank! Making it even more MULTI script :P

Edgeville Man Raper

Please a bit more umm… like who sick weirdo rapes men?!

(trying to be "RS inside joke" because everyone rapes yews, ess, but not men xD)


@ Jukka:

Please a bit more umm

Inhimillinen nimi!

@Ed: Thanks, Ill start working on them..

Hehehe… Its just joke, if you find it weird and can think of a better "interesting" name please tell me and I'll change it :D

i already told u GLSA!!

and if not that then how about "Skills talk Doom"(STD)

or "aMazing Superb Insane"

or maybe "Men Rape Edgeville" (MRE)

or "Outskirtville Homo Sapiens banger" (OHSB) (i thesaurused all the words :))

Haha those are good!


@ Ed, I probably won't be able to do anything for a week or two as I have 4 soccer games in 7 days this week, but as soon as life settles I'll be helping out.

Hey it's Ok, I honestly would hold my personal life and sports above SCAR, although scripting is my passion, so is hockey. I'll update you as much as possible when you get back, although I don't know how much will be done in that amount of time.

"Terminator" xD Jk/Jk (like terminators are about humans against machines so..)

Its actually really hard to think of a name for it.

The "Edgeville Terminator" sound like great name, although I'm sorry about not being active "Halo 3" is kind of important at the moment, but I think I'll finish it by tonight then I'll be active again, lol :p

Offtopic: Someone needs to make a Halo "Master Chief" Smiley, that would be awesome :halo:

Also, who is making the auto - responder? I've seen some stuff for it in the SvN and I was wanting to make one, so whoever is working on it please PM me.

Just stopping in to say Hi, I can't promise to be anymore active or contribute much more, than I was last time but I'm still interested and "keeping tabs" on you guys ;)

~RAM

Hey thats good to know your still interested or at least curious about what going on in MSI, I hope you can take some time to participate although I do not know what your schedule is, so I can't really say how easy that would be.

Im with you.

But the ventrilo are down?

I know its a bump, but you said here:

http://www.villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=21644
(last post)

I'm trying to get a list of people who want to contribute… I'm debating whether or not just to make a new thread about this and start from there.

If you're willing to contribute and know some people who will I'll be happy to get working on this again.

Also, if you'd like me to add you to the SvN just PM me your name after you register on sourceforge.net.

I believe like the 3rd or fourth thread down in MSI Announcements has the details.

EDIT: This basically explains how to contribute to MSI and what MSI is about.

Slightly late?


Crap, wasted my 1300th post on this.

It's a bit outdated yes…. there is a SRL ventrilo I think but I was just showing you this to explain how to setup Tortoise SvN and contribute to MSI. I'll update this thread so it's current.

Can't some1 just send me tah files? :D?

Setting up the SvN isn't hard…

(BTW Special Ed, I might need a little help on that thing we were trying…)

It isn't but if you don't know what to type in you can't really access the SvN. Also if you want help get on MSN fool! I'm leaving in like a half an hour now though so IDK how much help I'll be.

If I can free some time I would be happy to help developing a bit, too.

From: Wizzup?

Alright, I'll add you to the SvN if you want to PM me your Sourceforge.net name. Hopefully you working with MSI will get more people to contribute.

Hey have you gotten a chance to talk to the other administrators about what I asked?

My headset just broke and all I got now is a creative mic from 1997 that sounds all muffled…

? spam much

btw is anyone interested in continuing this project?

Im relating to how I can't really talk on ventrillo. Can I express myself just a tiny bit?

Yes, I am interested in continuing MSI

cool i wouldnt mind continuing just wondering if there aer many more ppl willing to aswell

If you had brought it up earlier in the summer, I would have. School is starting however, so I cannot. :( It's a sin really, I would have loved to help out.

i didnt really think about it till i saw newbiezkid post and i thought that this project has been here for a while and should be finished

does anyone know how far this actually got? scripts made wise… even tho pretty much nothing would work cos of all the updates it would be good to see how close this came to being finished

haha, I remember when I bugged the MSI leader (forgot his name :o ) to bring back MSI. But yea, I don't think it's really worth it, it has been attempted numerous times but has failed and now that school has started there is a less likely chance of anyone really going to stick with this. :)

yeah u have a point there, it was special ed that started this project if i remember correctly

Look at the very first post by bullzeye very carefully…

lol yeah but that was like 4 months ago

I don't want to contibrute anymore.
