dont expect scripting in rs to be as easy as it was
everytime you get a co-ordinate using the color picker in scar the client bloody changes canvas and so scar looses focus therefore meaning you have to select the client before you clickon a color
this is really annoying wen you are creating a script from scratch and you need all the colors and co-ordinates
in the last minuite i have had to retarget the client about 10-20 times

i think the only way to stop this is to make the scripts in unsigned java

EDIT: i just tried on insigned java and it makes no differance :(

Hmm.

So it's changing colors? Runescape is?

That sucks, just another one of those updates to piss off macroers…

Why not just take a screenshot of your screen and pick the colors from there?

No runescape allways changed colors…

Oh fuck. Its true

It really that big of a matter, i made a guild mier with it like that not 2 annoyoing.

its been like this?

trees change colors always

what about use scarscape? to start scripting

and other way is Reflection, though we still want color base.

i dont mean the colors change during script making but scar looses focus everytime you pick a color which means everytime you mant to pick a colour you have t otarget the client again

Can you change the tolerance? I'm guessing this invloves your Tut Island Runner?

Hasn't it always been like that?
Well, then I was stupid and re-targeted it all over again with no reason. -.-
Not that hard, too.

So it changes colour when the client re-canvas'?

It use to do this before. Now it just does it more…

Hmm, I will write a quick script to fix this. Bullzeye did it.

{*******************************************************************************

  Result := FindWindowBySize(766, 504);
  SetTimeOut(1, 'ResetRS');

Call it at the begining of a script. It SHOULD find it every one second. Haven't tested. Sorry.

Would that work with SMART?

Isnt it time to move on from colors and coordinates? I mean, isnt Reflection-type things more efficient?

we moved from coordinates to colors, reflection is tiles

like i said… isnt it time to just move onto tiles… form something with freddy… put smart w\ scar.. add reflection to srl.. its pretty much needed now.

I'm fine with staying with Colour…

No, reflection is too unstable in these stages, and colour is still perfectly working. Big whoop if colour picking isn't as good as before! We can still do, even if we print screen and pick the colours from paint..

The reason it does this is because the RuneScape Java has a new "paint/destroy" function in it.

It paints the canvas, then destroys it once it loses focus.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

I think this is the reason why I cant get any scripts work anymore, keeps giving canvas errors. something doesnt work in srl/scar I guess

Hmm, this could be the source of my problems as well. I'm going to go ahead and use the color picker from paint and see how it works. Thanks for the tip.:sasmokin:
