SRL Archive - News and General

Hi all, some might remember me from a year ago :) I first want to thank you a lot for SRL : it's been a great gift, directed me towards Med School and is the reason I'm currently giving summer classes to a stripper (long story).

I originally left because it was becoming too much of a hassle to bot using SRL, and any other bot just felt… I don't know, I just love the SRL community, with the work in common and what not. You guys truly make a team, and we used to make one.

However, what killed me was that SCAR was slowly crumbling under stability issues, half the team just switched to an underdevelopped compiler

, Reflection had been under repair for over 6 months, and OpenGL looked like it was going to flop. That, and the community initiatives like POMS and JNRPMS were starting to grind and "break nuts".

A year later, I'd like to know : what has changed? What hasn't? Have new tools appeared in our everlasting quest to outsmart JaGeX? Is SIMBA now the behemoth it was praised to become? 

Tell me all of it ! :)

PS. If you were around in my time, give a sign. You guys were truly awesome.

I think I remember you. Or someone starting with "C" :p …

More and more people use SIMBA and I have to say it's very nice. (I also use it, siggy)
It got code-hints(never worked properly in scar for me), it's extensible, etc, etc.
There will be a public release too, very soon(this week, I heard), with tools and things that people likes.

Also Freddy started working on scar 3.(forgot) to fix bugs remaining in that so he can freely develop Luna which is also coming.

SRL 5 is on the way and there are "rumours" that we will be able to see something from it in the summer. Will be SIMBA only.

Reflection is up and it's being rewritten at the moment. SIMBA only.

Will edit if something comes to my mind.

Oh yeah, there is a big script MSI(you must have heard about it before) that is heavily developed and they are recruiting(testers, writers).

I don't know about POMS and imho the junior one was born dead.
I haven't heard about OpenGL since it was started. I think we can say farewell to it(I want someone to prove else, please).

It wasn't a year ago you left was it? God I feel old now :S

and pretty much what Sabzi said, I've noticed a lot more scripts have been released recently (due to reflection being fixed) and activity seems to be slowly picking up once more. We're on the rise :)

Tell us more about this stripper. I'm interested. :p

:) I remember you.

I remember you, reflection is back up except for grounditems

Underdeveloped compiler? :(

You can take a look at SRL 5 here: http://git.villavu.com/?p=srl5.git;a=summary

Underdeveloped compiler? :(

Lolled irl. I thought someone will come with something like this so I leaved answering to that out.
:D:D

Back then, SIMBA was mostly a rumor anyway :)

She also makes my groceries :D

Makes them? 'o.O?

I remember you :) Though I haven't been around too much myself lately.

You may continue.

^ I lol'd.

I require more information and possibly pictures of this stripper.

Hey Cigue, I remember you. I never really knew you, just saw you around.

Boy I remember you!

Always an intelligent behind the scenes kinda guy. Yes, SRL is running well, without a doubt and Simba (Its not an acronym :p) is well on it's way to being what SCAR could never pull off.

Thanks Nava! You were great help back then :)

I'm thinking about going back to scripting, however I'd like to use/design/work on more standardized functions and tools : I think SCAR never had a full color, standard object finder apart from what could be made from FindColorsSpiralTolerance.

About that stripper,


We met at a maths summer course, she needed help so I gave it to her - and she went into the habit of paying me for it, sometimes she even buys me and my two housemates groceries. She drops by my place almost daily, we study and she gives me money.

It's not the worst job in the world, since I can a) eat well, b) get a pay, c) spend time with a pretty girl, for d) something I'd have done anyway (studying)

I don't know exactly in which club she dances, and I'm torn between the trust we've built and my occasional desire for sweet, naked blondes.

That is all :)

raepraepraepraepraepraepraepraepraepraepraepraepraepraepraepraepraepraepraepraep

:)

I think you should continue scripting. ;D

I'm sorry to bump an old thread with irrelevant stuff…


This used to be my first girlfriend, she is now my first ex. She's a beatmaker, DJ and singer too, three things I admire.

Also, she is now a stripper.

Cigue - Hey what's up?
Her - working next to your place tonight :)
Cigue - Where at
Her - [Names a nearby strip club]
Cigue - You're a stripper?
Cigue - Uhhhh
Her - Yeah lol I saw [friend of mine] at work recently and he won't stop texting le
Cigue - Lol that guy
Cigue - Shame I'm too much of a good guy to go tonight :)
Her - It doesn't matter, come over, but I'm often busy. Oh, and my name's Angela now ;)
Her - Lol, not like you've never seen me naked haha

I think I exploded.

Cigue - Don't think I can go tonight, but are you coming back anytime soon?
Her - Of course… If I'm invited at [brother's birthday] ?
Cigue - yayaya :D I was going to offer you to put on the show but right now it feels less appropriate :P
