Now I don't know if this is just me, I wouldn't mind others testing this too, but while working on some walking for my script. This is the continuous loop:
  • I got it working
  • I logged out
  • I logged back in
  • It wouldn't work
  • I updated the colors from the minimap
  • It worked again
I got a list of the colors from a rock just outside Draynor, the color is the exact same all through the rock, except one small shaded area i was careful to avoid. Here are the results, two from each login from different points on the rock:

Login One:
Color Picked: 6051415
Color Picked: 6051415

Login Two:
Color Picked: 5987419
Color Picked: 5987419

Login Three:
Color Picked: 5592661
Color Picked: 5592661

Login Four:
Color Picked: 5855068
Color Picked: 5855068

Login Five:
Color Picked: 5723737
Color Picked: 5723737

Please tell me I'm crazy, these all should be the same colors :frusty:
AFAIK, it seems Jagex is shifting the minimap colors ever so slightly every time you log.
If I am right, this means a lot of scripts will break. This is not good.

Ermmm….it has been like this for…how long?.. I think over a year now? All minimapcolors rotate, not only each login, but also each loading screen :)

Well I haven't been here for a year yet :p

But still, after yesterdays update, I can't get anything to work on the minimap. Higher tolerance doesn't help either.

What Fawki meant was that the colors is changing, try reading the sentence one more time :) (minimapcolors, not minimap)

Here's what you do:

Tools -> Explorer Folder -> Includes -> SRL -> Scripting Tools -> ACA

Get the client, pick a bunch of colors you want.. use SPEED 2, then save that file. Log out… close the runescape client… login back in… get the screen… open the ACA file back up… add more colors to the list. After a while of doing that you'll notice the best color and speed mods don't change. Click find object function… click create. Use the info from the color tolerance speed/ tolerance/ hue sat mods/ and color in your color functions ect.. then have it in your developer version of the script to save a screen shot if it fails.. so then, you can open it up in ACA, open up your old ACA color file for that, and add the needed colors… get the new colors/tol/mods and update your script.

Use ACA, takes about 15+ Maybe even 25+ colors to properly color Varoock road.
All MM colors (most) have been like this for over a year, its no biggie, talk to IceFire or me on MSN if you need ACA help.

Yea, I was using ACA.
Thanks, but it was a problem within SCAR.
I uninstalled and reinstalled it (It seems i have been doing that a lot lately), and it works now.
Jeez, i cant wait for simba -.-
