SRL Archive - OSR Outdated Tutorials

As part of my promise to the SRL community, I have started a SCAR scripting tutorial.

This tutorial will eventually end up covering every topic in SCAR that I can think of. It has been written by myself in a hope to teach SCAR and SRL users a bit more than they already know.

Currently, the tutorial is only in its first version, and covers the fundamentals of SCAR. If you are just starting to learn SCAR, I highly recommend you download and read this tutorial through. It will give you a great kick start into the SCAR and SRL world.

Unlike other tutorials on this site, this tutorial must be downloaded, as it is a chm file, and it is very big. This tutorial also encourages you to actually script whilst learning about the different parts instead of just reading. Exercises and examples are dotted along the way to help you through.

Version 1 of the tutorial is downloadable --> here <--. Thanks to Freddy for the hosting :)

If you spot any mistakes, or have any suggestions, please feel free to post them.

Thanks a lot,

Starblaster100



Mirrors for Version 1:
1 - Rapidshare
2 - MyFreeFileHosting
3 - MegaUpload
5 - File Factory
6 - MediaFire
7 - Hy71194.mgatesphoto

Woot! You released it. Thanks. I'm looking through it right now :)

my first suggestion is not to host it on rapidshare -.- :p.

other than that i dont have any suggestions cuz you've only gotten to the basics.

Though i like the exercise thing at the end, because it makes them try to figure how to use it on their own instead of just copying from the tutorial. It will probably be more useful when you get to the comre complicated things, but i still like the idea. :)

Unfortunately, I have nowhere else to host it. If anyone whats to mirror it on other sites, I will happily add the links to the main post above.

Thanks

I read all the background info, and skimmed through the scripting part you have so far. Looks great :) I wish I had had this when I started scripting :p

Only 1 suggestion - Maybe I missed it b/c I only skimmed through it, but you could mention that using the Scar functions (MoveMouse, Clickmouse, Sendkeys, etc) isn't safe for RS.

Other than that, perfect so far. Sticky it :p

:| Freddy's > My link?

Can I be added to the mirror list?

By the way, you should name the mirrors. AKA 1 is titled "Rapidshare", etc, it is easier to find your favorite one :)

Firefox Ftw!

Lol.. Stupid IE eh Freddy =[

Thanks for this im just starting off so this is defenitly what I need.

very very nice SB, i seen this mention in a thread and have been waiting to take a look

awesome SB, I'll be reading it soon man.

Well Done Star,
This will help everyone for easier use: Maybe move it to the beginner section and get it stickied.
So it's easier (becuase some people mightn't scroll down).
On another note, this is a brilliant tutorial, I wish I had this when I was learning scripting.
Keep Up The Good Work!!!

wow finally, ive been reading tuts for a while now and they all do a sub-par job of explaining scripts and this one is by far the best of all. ive learned a lot from this script. keep up the good work ;D

dude this thing is not working it say this page can't be displayed

how to open .hcm files? anyone know?

cleared things up, thanks alot keep up the good work, 5 stars
:D

Grrrrreat!

Not working for internet explorer, is this only for Firefox?
i do not personally own the computer i am on so i can't add firefox.

wicked sick i like that part at the end!
even though it was verrrry basic the idea is good,
but maybe try a higher diffulculty if someone wanted
to learn this stuff they could just go to begginer forum
lol
good try.

Ok, Star, this tutorial is pretty well made, I'll add it to my sig after the end of the FireFox Download day. (Please PM me if I forget to do it..)

Although, I was dissapointed it didn't have anything of the more advanced type of scripting. Could you add that whenever you get time?

Its only version 1…

I'm getting there, it takes a stupid amount of time to write, so not that my exams are finally over, I can concentrate more on SCAR stuff

Thanks heaps for this, I've read heaps of tutorials on scripting and am making my own powerchopper at the moment. Can't wait to improve it with this. ^.^

Great tut, maybe add some more advanced stuff in future

To fix the 'cannot show the web page' issue, right click on the application. Then select properties. Around the bottom of the properties it should say unblock. Hit it and at the bottom right, click apply then ok. Rerun the application and it should load. (By the way I did this with Vista.);)

This is a great guide to get someone started making their own scripts. Great Job.

Bump because this deserves more attention that what it got

Version 2 is nearly ready :)
Thanks Claw

brilliant tut there:D realy helped me out a bit:D

This is a really good tut. Exams are over, and I'm going to start learning SCAR :cool:


Seriously, thanks. It's what I need to start scripting :D

Looks great until now:)

No unblock button when i right click and select properties. I am running Vista Ultimate. Anyone have any clue why?

It doesn't work here!

Try downloading it from another mirror, at the bottom of the first post

Yeah, I get the page cannot be displayed error, unfortunately. I tried the unblock, but still, to no avail.

Omg thanks a lot Starblaster! this tutorial helped me out alot. I made my own script that brings up internet browser and goes to Runescape and does everything and loggs me in. Now i just wanna learn how to make more advanced scripts with like colors. Well Anyways great tutorial I loved it and it helped a lot. Thnx!

Edit: For people having problems with the unblock here is a pic!

Thanks, with this example i now know how to make this help file work. :)

Thank you, it was very informative and brilliantly presented.
I'm eagerly awaiting the next section of the tutorial.

thanks for posting this guide!

ty this really helpt me out allot;)

wow, that was helpful thanks.

This is what I get for it. What's going on? I want to start reading up on this and I can't. :(

me too bro! help plz

nooiiice!:spongebob:

WHy doesn't it work? Nothing loads?

cool tutorial - wish I had one to RSBot scripts too (Java)

Down'ed it and it says couldn't find page, is the host offline?

yeah page cannot be displayed i see it is some wierd format which my pc is unable to read

Oh i resolved it,
If there are any more people with the "cannot be displayed" error read on:
download the link, hit save and save to desktop or sumwhere easy to acces,
right click on the icon then hit properties then press unblock somwhere on that box.

If it gives you hell, here's what I did:

1. Download from MegaUpload
2. Save to C:\Program Files\Scar 3.15\Scripts\Tutorials (created folder)
3. Close MegaUpload
4. Open C:\Program Files\Scar 3.15\Scripts\Tutorials
5. Uncheck "Show me this window when I open this file" (or whatever)
6. DON'T INSTALL FF unless you want to. It just consumes disk space.

Now it works! Btw, thanks 4 the tut.

Thanks for this! Greatly appreciated :D

EDIT: I sat down and went through this whole thing in like 20 minutes, and I truly have to say that I understand the basics better than ever. (It's saying a lot, considering that other tuts threw me for a loop after hitting conversion functions.) So really, from the heart, THANK YOU :D:D:D:D:D:D:D

I want to make a few scripts.
Does this tutorial or guide can help me to make scripts in version 3.20d of DiviCDE Scar?
