SRL Archive - MSI Tutorials

UPDATED - 12 Nov 2011

I know getting MSI to install and run is quite a hassle for you New Comers so I will provide a through tutorial with pictures. If this guide is too difficult to understand, try this one.

CONTENTS:
A. Downloading Simba/MSI/SRL
B. Getting SMART V6.8
C. Getting SPS.
D. Common Errors.
E.Credits.



If you are new and you have nothing important associating with your Simba folder, go on ahead and delete it.
A. Downloading Simba/MSI

1. Download Simba HERE and do a full installation.
2. Proceed to starting up Simba (Located in Simba folder). From here:
-Click on View located on the toolbar to the top.
-Click on Extensions
-Click on Msi.sex, thus enabling it.
-While your at it enable Srl.sex
Make sure its highlighted in green once you enable it.

3. Click on MSI located on the toolbar to the top. From here:
-Click on settings and then check "Override update"
-Click on UPDATE and wait for MSI to download and install.
-Do it once more to make sure you have MSI in it's latest form.


You should now have succesfully installed MSI Pheonix.

Installing SRL
-Click on Srl
-Click on update and let it do its magic…



Now on to getting the latest SPS (the walking plugin MSI uses to handle all its walking procedures) and SMART V6.8 (a nifty plugin that allows us to multi-task while botting by allowing scripts to work through a minimizable Runescape screen).

B. Getting SMART v6.8.
1. Usually Simba does this for you, but sometimes a release is made and it's not pushed instantly. So:
-Download SMART HERE
-Unzip it.
-Locate your Simba folder, open it up, now open up the plugins folder. Extract the contacts of the SMART zip you just downloaded into that folder.
It should ask you to replace a file, say yes to all.
You should now have the latest SMART.

C. Getting SPS.
1. Download the SPS zip HERE
2. Locate your Simba folder. Open it up and proceed to opening up the Includes folder.
3. Extract the folder inside SPS zip into there.
4. NOW RENAME THAT FOLDER INTO SPS. YOU MUST.
5.Inside your SPS folder there will be a plugin. Copy it and put it in the main Simba plugin folder.

You should now have the latest SPS.


D. Solutions for Common Errors. PLEASE READ!


Error:

Exception in Script: Unable to find file 'sps/sps.simba' used from 'C:\Simba\Includes\MSI/MSI/Core/Setup.simba'

Solution: This problem is self explanatory. The script is looking for a file that is not there. So you either have not copied the SPS.dll found inside your SPS folder, or you simply don't have it SPS. Please follow the SPS part of the tutorial thoroughly.

Error:

C:\Simba\Includes\srl/srl/misc/Smart.scar(29:5): Unknown identifier 'SmartHoldMousePlus' at line 28
Compiling failed.

Solution: The current version of SMART you have is either conflicting with something or it's outdated. Follow these steps:
1. Make sure you have Winrar.
2. Download SMART here.
3. Open up the Zip file.
4. Make sure all your Simba's are closed.
5. Extract the contents of your Zip file to the main Simba plugin folder which is located inside your Simba folder.
6. Start the script again.

The SPS part. The very last. Letter C.
Look here @ SRL we use our common sense a lot(well we attempt to). Please read and search before making countless posts. If you still are stuck we are here to help you.

I had a tweak with it and now get this error:

You have to download SPS, and make sure the folder is called SPS and it's located in your Simba/Includes/ folder.

I'm getting the same error as him plus there is no file named sps.simba anywhere

all that is in the zip archive is:

img folder
plugins folder
mapmaker.simba
TODO.txt
README.txt

That's all nothing else no other files or folders

Your looking for sps.dll NOT .simba. It is located, as stated, in the plugins folder.

Make sure you read everything and not just look at the pics ;)

The SPS.dll(plugin) is found in the SPS folder. Copy it, then paste it inside your main Simba plugin folder.

I redownloaded winrar and i found it now it wasnt showing some files in the archive

Thanks

Let's try manually updating your SMART.

1. Make sure you have Winrar.
2. Download SMART here.
3. Open up the Zip file.
4. Make sure all your Simba's are closed.
5. Extract the contents of your Zip file to the main Simba plugin folder which is located inside your Simba folder.
6. Start the script again.

You are welcome.

You have to make sure the form is set up correct.

Cool tutorial, worked good when putting it on my linux machine lol… I accidentally put sps.simba in the plugins instead of sps.dll, took me 10 mins to figure it out, had to come follow all of these steps and then saw the problem :P

What's all the text before that line?

I got an error here:

// SPS Global variables
var
  SPS_Loaded, SPS_Debug, SPS_Continue: boolean;
  SPS_Areas: TStringArray;
  SPS_Surface: TSPSSurface;
[COLOR="Orange"]  SPS_Worldmap: T4DIntegerArray;  [/COLOR]

when compiling. It said:

[Error] C:\Simba\Includes\sps/sps.simba(34:17): Unknown type 'T4DIntegerArray' at line 33
Compiling failed.

I installed SRS and SMART manually. Any advice?

Yeah sorry I just updated MSI and SPS and I forgot that the MSI updater takes around and hour to update. Read the first few posts of this thread to fix this until MSI updates.

Either wait an hour or less for an update to MSI (MSI updates every hour) or add {$loadlib sps} right after the line program program MSI_Script;

Edit: Coh3n beat me to it :p

Alright, waited and added loadlib, now it's complaining:

Plugin(sps32) has not been found

From: QuasiNoob
Alright, waited and added loadlib, now it's complaining:

Plugin(sps32) has not been found

1. Make sure you have sps downloaded.
2. Inside your sps folder, go to the plugin folder and copy the sps.DLL
3. Go to your main plugin folder found in the simba folder and paste it in there.

Or just follow the sps part of my tutorial more throughly .

I've followed your tutorial, and it was very good, however, I'm still having an error. It says this:

[Error] C:\Simba\Includes\srl/srl/misc/Smart.scar(29:5): Unknown identifier 'SmartHoldMousePlus' at line 28
Compiling failed.

Any suggestions? Coh3n told me to make sure I have Smart v6.9, and I updated to it, but I'm still getting the same error.

Just tried. Now the error I'm getting says:

"This application has failed to start because MSVCR71.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix the problem."

But re-installing does nothing, as I've tried.

Yeah just download that dll from Here
And put it in your Systems32 folder, which is found in your Windows folder, which is located in your C Drive.

I'm going out right now with some friends. Hopefully that's your last problem. If more problems persist then just post here and another member will happily assist you.

Damnit, I was going to do this on my own but didn't want to mess anything up and you made me feel like an idiot, haha! Kidding. But I did it, and now it *seems* to be working as SMART started up just now.

Thank you so much.

when i take out the // before {$DEFINE SPS} I get:

I believe you need to download SPS… Search for SRL Positioning System in the forums and follow the instructions on how to get SPS.

{$loadlib sps}

Add that before all the include lines.

does this still work? im followed the instructions but now im very confused about what i'm supposed to do. i dont know what to do next to run it

Once you followed all the instructions all you have to do is go to MSI>Run.

i tried that and i got this:

kingarabian, add that to the first post under common problems or something.

kingarabian, thank you very much for your help, i was able to get a GUI running with settings on how to run the script. however, despite my progress forward i still have several problems with it. when i add in a player and enter my information under panel 1, it still says "0: [F2P] ()" on the list even after saving the player. in addition, i am unable to click the load button because it seems to be frozen or "greyed" out (the colour is still the same). when i went to the second panel, everything was greyed out except for the next button. when i clicked on it, it said "Out of Range. Press OK to ignore and risk data corruption. Press Cancel to kill the program." i did clicked OK the first time, selected Draynor Willows and entered in all the other panels, however, when i ran the script it just stayed at the login screen. any help on this from anyone would be greatly appreciated

Don't use Benland's host for getting SMART, kingarabian. The always up to date plugins are at http://wizzup.org/static/srl/simba_plugins.tar.bz2 .

Enter your players information in panel 1, THEN click add player. You should be fine after that. The Load button is greyed out because you don't have any players saved.

Thank you guys for the input, will update thread asap.

Putonajonny, please REDO my whole tutorial! Everything is updated and it SHOULD work.

I updated the thread last night as well.

Can you please not link to Benland's page … that's an outdated version of SMART that won't even compile on SRL anymore.

Also SPS is now in the SRL updater extension (if you have the extension updater enabled, go update that and grab it!)

Well we did have a mess up with the Chars today… Try deleting your Includes folder, and installing SRL again using the extension. Also, which script file is that?

i think it was something cause i almost never have problems following tutorials specially the ones that spell everything out, i will try it again when i get home, i think i installed simba and all includes like 40 times that day with every tut i could find lol

I'm getting the same error, did a clean install of simba. Is CharsNPC supposed to be in Simba? Because it isn't defined inside simba.simba and it doesn't use any includes.
