SRL Archive - OSR Help

After making some DTMs, I decided to try them out. I get an error whenever I try finding the DTMs. I've tried several scripts to test DTMs, and I get a similar error, pointing to any FindDTM method.

Using my script, I get this error:

Error: Exception: Invalid pointer operation at line 64

The error is shown in C:\Simba\Includes\SRL\SRL\core\amount.scar, at line 64, containing:

'dtm': Result := FindDTM(Ident, x, y, Area.x1, Area.y1, Area.x2, Area.y2);

And when I run this code:

program New; 
var Vial,x,y:integer; 
begin
 Vial := DTMFromString('78DA63AC666460286740017509960CFF81345' + '086E13F1030B663AA81C8C248205D0B64D51050934F849A2A202B' + '8B809A26202B13BF1A0034E80BCD'); 
if FindDTM(Vial,x, y,1, 1, 200, 200) then 
writeln('Found DTM')
 end.

I get:

Error: Exception: Invalid pointer operation at line 5

Care to help? I've been working on this issue for like an hours now, lol. Trying to figure out what's wrong. Figured I'd post before bed. It's probably something completely retarded.

I copy pasted

program New;
var Vial,x,y:integer;
begin
 Vial := DTMFromString('78DA63AC666460286740017509960CFF81345' + '086E13F1030B663AA81C8C248205D0B64D51050934F849A2A202B' + '8B809A26202B13BF1A0034E80BCD');
if FindDTM(Vial,x, y,1, 1, 200, 200) then
writeln('Found DTM')
 end.                            

Into simba, and I got not compiling errors.

I have the same exact error when calling "FindNormalRandoms" at this line:

if (FindDTM(Lamp, x, y, MIX1, MIY1, MIX2, MIY2) or 

It makes me wonder if it's a problem within Simba.

if (FindDTM(Lamp, x, y, MIX1, MIY1, MIX2, MIY2) or

Missing a closing pretense?
I assume it probably appears later on in the next few lines though….

Yep. Run any script and call "findnormalrandoms", you'll get the same error on line 408 in antirandoms.scar.

if (FindDTM(Lamp, x, y, MIX1, MIY1, MIX2, MIY2) or
      FindDTM(BookOfKnowledge, x, y, MIX1, MIY1, MIX2, MIY2)) then

What Simba is this? (Version 0.98-rc1 / 980?) Where did you get it?

E: I am pretty sure this happens only with Simba > 0.98-rc1.
In my testing 0.98-rc1 gives an access violation, and 0.97.3 just works fine.
I'll get around fixing this in a bit.

Meanwhile, use the Stable simba version. (0.97.3)

Yes I'm using 0.98-rc(1?).

Yes I'm using 0.98-rc(1?).

Yup, same here. Well, it's a relief to know it's not a problem on my end! I'll try out the non rc version.

I have fixed this in Simba-Next. Try the Simba.exe (i386, win32) from https://www.moparisthebest.com/jenkins/job/Simba_Next/14/ ?
Let me know if it actually finds the dtm though. (It should)
