SRL Archive - RS3 Outdated / Broken Scripts

The Object DTM Include is an include file developed to offer an easy and accurate way to walk and position your Runescape character.


An Object DTM is a set of sub-points anchored to a main-point, with an optional defined area polygon. The sub-points are objects found on the minimap, such as:



Here is a screenshot showing an Object DTM being debugged on-screen:



The green circles indicate sub-points. This particular Object DTM has two trees, and two ladders as sub-points. The red polygon is the defined area polygon that is a part of this particular Object DTM. If this Object DTM is found on the minimap, the position of the area polygon will be immediately known, relative to the Object DTM. This means that you can define an Object DTM for specific areas, and easily know if you are in the area.

The include features:

• - Finding an Object DTM, like a normal DTM
• - Walking to a single point
• - Walking a path
• - Able to check if player is within a very precise area
• - Works with the compass rotated
• - Fast, and not heavy on the CPU

A Couple of Notes:

How To Install!
——————————————-

- Download 'ObjectDTM.sex' at the bottom of this post.


- Move the file to 'Simba/Extensions'. ("Simba" being the install location of Simba. On windows, usually at "C:\")

- If you have Simba open, close it.

- Open Simba.

- go to 'View>Extensions'.

- enable 'ObjectDTM.sex'.

- go to 'ODTM>Check For Update'.

- if it says "No ODTM update available", then go to ODTM > Settings > and check the 'Override Update' option

- after that is done, go to ODTM > Update.

Revision Log:

-Version 00.1: New host, courtesy of [J]ustin.  As a result, the version number
               has been reset.
               Added ferns to list of useable minimap objects (MM_FERN).
               Updated NPC dot record due to reports of NPC occasionally failing
               to be located. 

-Version 10.3: Made compatible with newest SMART and changes within SRL.

-Version 10.2: Optimised object-finding code and fixed a bug that could have
               been the root cause of many false positives.  Removed the
               'T2DStringArray' type declaration as it was for an older planned
               revision of the include, future plans now do not include
               multi-dimensional strings, and it was causing duplicate errors.
               Improved the ground level check.Fixed certain coordinates in the
               Generation Tool that have been affected by the addition of a
               toolbar at the top of the RS client.  Removed 'ObjectDebug', as
               it is obsolete.  Changed the include lines at the top,
               $DEFINEPAINT is no longer needed.

               Sorry for the lack of updates this year, am trying to get back
               on track with this and hope to be producing some exciting
               features soon.           

-Version 10.0: Updated the minimap object record for dead trees (MM_DEADTREE).
              Fixed the bug in 'ObjDTM_WalkPath' when the first node was not
              found and the include threw an out-of-range error.
              Added three new global variables: 'ObjDTM_TextDebug',
              'ObjDTM_XRand', and 'ObjDTM_YRand'.  By default,
              'ObjDTM_TextDebug' is set to false, and the include will rarely,
              if ever, write something to the debug box.  After calling
              'ObjDTM_Setup' in your script, you can set this to true in order
              to restore text debugging.  'ObjDTM_XRand' and 'ObjDTM_YRand' are
              integers that specify the randomness with which the include will
              click at the main-point of an Object DTM. By default, these
              values are set to 2.  After calling 'ObjDTM_Setup' in your script,
              you can set these to determine click randomness.  

-Version 9.9: Added the function 'ObjDTM_WalkPath'.  The include now
              contains a function to easily walk paths contained within
              TStringArrays.  Tweaked minimap object record for ladders
              to account for the strange half-ladders that crop up on
              occasion.  Removed the function 'ObjDTM_Generate' and removed
              the function 'ObjDTM_PathRecorder' these two have been
              rendered obsolete with the new generation tool shipped with
              the include.  'FindObjDTM' and 'ObjDTMWalk' will be removed
              in the next version.  If they are being used in your scripts
              please update to use 'ObjDTM_Find' and 'ObjDTM_Walk' instead.

-Version 9.8: Added 'Delete ODTM' button to tool, adding ability to
              delete and clear the current Object DTM.

-Version 9.7: Fixed form bugs in generation tool.     

-Version 9.6: The generation tool is now part of the 'ODTM' menu, for
              ease of access. 

-Version 9.5: Added NPC dots to list of useable minimap objects (MM_NPC).
              Please note that only stationary NPC's, like bankers, should
              be used.  Created a new generation tool.  Super exciting.
              Please see:
              'Simba/Includes/ObjectDTM/Object DTM Generation Tool.simba'
              So far, only the 'Single' tab, and the 'Path' tab are
              functional.  These two will allow you to make single Object
              DTMs, and paths.

-Version 9.4: Fancy hackish stuff implemented to switch people over to
              new extension without having to manually download. 

-Version 9.3: Stopped scripters from crashing script when trying
              to use area-related methods with an Object DTM with
              no area information.  Fixed the Minimap Object Record for
              Cactus (MM_CACTUS).  The include should now be useable
              in the desert.
              Phased out 'InObjDTMArea', use 'ObjDTM_InArea'
              Phased out 'GenerateObjDTM', use 'ObjDTM_Generate'
              Would like to:
              Phased out 'LoadObjects' and 'SetupODTMI', use 'ObjDTM_Setup'
              Phased out 'ObjDTMWalk', use 'ObjDTM_Walk'
              Phased out 'FindObjDTM', use 'ObjDTM_Find'

-Version 9.2: Added extension updater!  Hooray!

-Version 9.1: Removed SRL4 support since SRL5 is now standard.
        New on-SMART guide for generation tool.
        Fixed duplicate identifier errors.       
                                                           
-Version 8.9: Fixed a bug that caused 'ObjDTM_Walk' to be more
        unreliable than it would otherwise be.  Commenting out
        Multi Object DTM related code until I can properly fix it. 

-Version 8.8: Added the ability to delete sub-points while using
        the 'ObjDTM_Generate' function.  Added 'ObjDTM_PathRecorder',
        which allows you to easily create paths.  

-Version 8.7: Bug fix to 'ObjDTMToString', bug caused the area to be
        nulled.  Added the 'ObjDTM_Generate' function.  This is a new
        interactive Object DTM generation tool.  You need SRL5 to use it.

-Version 8.6: Support for SRL5 added.

-Version 8.5: More small bug fixes/speed improvements, the function additions
        in Version 8 still aren't really functional.  Sorry :/.  Added
        'ObjDTM_InAreaEx' Which allows you to specify a specific point to
        check to see if it is in the Object DTM's area. There is now
        paint debugging, useable by setting the variable
        'ObjDTM_Debug' to true in the setup of your script.
        Trying to standardize the names of everything.  Not there yet.

-Version 8: bug fix in finding function.  Overall speed improvements.  Added
        'Multi-Object DTMs' which allow for multiple Object DTMs to be
        defined in a string array, to use in the same way as single
        Object DTMs, but if one fails, the code will try the next.  Path-
        walking function.  All of these additions are untested.  Will
        try to get testing done soon.  So this update is mostly for
        the bug fix/speed improvement.  But feel free to try the new stuff.
        Haven't added comments, code is messy, real sorry about all of
        this.  Will be resolved in Rev 8.1.

        Added:
        ObjDTM_MultiWalk;
        ObjDTM_InMultiArea;
        ObjDTM_PathWalk;
        ObjDTM_InAreaEx;
        
        None of which are really functional at the moment, except ObjDTM_InAreaEx.

-Version 7.8: Changed the single use of SplitTPAEx to SplitTPAExWrap, as
        I heard that it can cause memory leaks?

-Version 7.7: Changed a few things with how updates work.  Now has the
        ability to force a roll-back in case I broke something.

-Version 7.4/5/6: Changing naming convention for ease-of-updating purposes.
        Switched to new numbering system to facilitate move towards
        auto-installation and updating.  Include installer now attached
        to bottom of project post.  The include should now auto-update
        whenever a script using it is run.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
-Rev7c: Updated minimap object record for boulders (MM_BOULDER), it never
        got updated with the rest of the records in Rev 5.  Fixed a small
        issue with the minimap object record for ladders (MM_LADDER), causing
        ladder finding to fail on rare occasions.  Realized that main-point
        tracking in the walking function was never implemented- now actually
        functional.  Added a check to catch if a script writer has failed
        to call "LoadObjects" before using code from the include.   

-Rev7b: Fixed a bug in the 'ObjDTMToString' and 'ObjDTMFromString' functions that resulted in an out-of-range error.  

-Rev7a: Added maple trees, and rocks to list of useable minimap objects
        (MM_MAPLE), (MM_ROCK).  

-Rev 7: Added cacti to list of useable minimap objects (MM_CACTUS).
        Fixed a rather grievous oversight on my part, and made sure that
        SMART related code isn't actually compiled if SMART isn't defined
        in the script.  Added the rather verbosely-named
        'PrintObjDTMRecFromString' This allows you to pass an Object DTM
        in string-form, and have the record form print out in the debug.
        This makes it easy to change the contents of string-form Object DTMs. 

-Rev 6: Added the henge object (stone circle columns) to list of useable
        minimap objects (MM_HENGE). Implemented polygonal areas.
        Convex/Concave polygons can now be defined for Object DTM areas,
        allowing for very specific area boundaries.

-Rev 5: I think color-finding has been improved in this revision, meaning
        from now on the finding of objects is less likely to break. 

-Rev 4: Added the function 'PointInPolygon' which now allows for accurate
        implementation of the 'InObjDTMArea' function. 

-Rev 3a: couple of bug fixes.  The 'InObjDTMArea' function is now somewhat
             operational.

-Rev 3: Added the functions 'ObjDTMFromString' and 'ObjDTMToString' these
        supplement the new, more compact string-form of Object DTMs.  Updated
        minimap object records for trees, ladders, and plants.  All functions and
        procedures now require the string-form of Object DTMs to be passed.
        Alternatively, you can put ObjDTMToString(ObjectDTM) in place of the string. 

-Rev 2: Fixed minimap object record for dead trees.  Added first version of
        the Object DTM generator.

-Rev 1: Basic functionality to assist in the creation of Object DTMs, can find
        Object DTMs at any angle, and includes a simple walking function, and
        location check.

Current Revision number is: 00.1 (1)

Looks good! :) DTMs are very reliable way to walk.
When it comes to positioning in larger scale, it can harldly be used to find yourself in the whole rs world.
I've tried this and found it's too slow and unreliable when there aren't usable object around.

Used individually in scripts though, this looks great!

From: marpis
Looks good! :) DTMs are very reliable way to walk.

Thanks :) the core is TPA-based, though. The DTM-like aspect comes into play after the objects are found and identified. The code checks the center point and type of object when comparing. Meaning, as long as it reliably finds the objects, it is less likely to fail, compared to an actual DTM.

E: yes, I don't think it would scale well. However, the farthest distance I have tested so far is walking from the Lumbridge courtyard to the Varrock west bank.

E2: Also, speed hasn't been an issue, as it is quite fast.

Ha looks good, euphemism. I made a prototype DTM walker and I used just regular DTMs printed from the DTM editor. I also uses MM objects as the subpoints, but I always had problems when NPCs/Items/Players/symbols would obstruct the object on the MM. Also because I used DTMRotated to find the points sometimes it would give inaccurate results.

I look forward to seeing how you did it! Great job, in either case.

Looks neat, and seems like it would be very accurate. Nice work! :)

Psst, side note.. use TMDTMs!

Just a thought.. :)

Looks good though, I will check out the code later. Bug me about it.

Looking good mate. Great to see that you finished it!

Looking forward to see the sauce!

~Home

Updated first post with the code, and added some more information.

Looks great, I'm gonna give it a try and see what I come up with. :)

By the way to clarify my DTM walker was just regular DTMs with the parent point having a super high tolerance and each subpoint only used a single color from objects on the MM.

Added the functions 'ObjDTMFromString' and 'ObjDTMToString'. These
supplement the new, more compact string-form of Object DTMs. Updated
minimap object records for trees, ladders, and plants. Small changes to the pseudo-guide withing the main post.

Awesome code, awesome commentary - something so many of us leave out.
This looks very promising, and I'm sure will soon be adopted!

Thanks much! Also, small fixes, and now the 'InObjDTMArea' function works somewhat.

Really great work here euphemism. I really enjoyed reading through your code. Will be watching very closely to see how this develops.

Thanks, ReadySteadyGo. I hope future developments please you.

Added the function 'PointInPolygon' which now allows for accurate implementation of area boxes via the 'InObjDTMArea' function.

This is very interesting!

Keep on going, and this could turn into something great :)
(I remember we had DDTM path walking at some point in SRL.. probably still there somewhere, you could search for it if you'd like :) )

Could you point me to where it is located? I found path.scar, but I am not sure that is what you are referencing.

Updated to Revision 4a, Improved accuracy of 'PointInPolygon', base code to allow for polygon areas added. Updated minimap record for ladders.

Yes, path.scar is what I was talking about. IIRC Fawki posted a thread about using this tool too (long time ago…)

Hmmm, okay. It does have a few interesting things in it. Do you have any suggestions to add to this project?

E: Revision 5 is out! The object-finding function the entire include relies on should now be much more reliable (colors would occasionally break and need updating. This should happen much less often now). An example path script has been uploaded for you to test! Walks from the Lumbridge courtyard to the Varrock West Bank.

E2: Released Revision 6. Added the henge object (stone circle columns) to list of useable minimap objects (MM_HENGE). Implemented polygonal areas. Convex/Concave polygons can now be defined for Object DTM areas, allowing for very specific area boundaries.

It would be nice to have more feedback so that I don't have to keep deleting and re-posting this post :/

Bro. I think you may have finally made it possible to solve Dungeoneering mazes.

You're doing a great job :) I'll test this when I get home from school ;)

From: kingarabian
Bro. I think you may have finally made it possible to solve Dungeoneering mazes.

I think you will find there is a lack of these objects on the minimap when doing dungeoneering, not to mention that dungeons are dynamically created every time you start one. That means that object DTMs are not really applicable for dungeoneering: however, what is it you are finding difficult with navigating a dungeon?

Thanks, that would be most appreciated.

E: points are automatically rotated to account for compass direction. If the compass related code is still broken, the finding function may have problems finding the object DTMs.

Wouldn't it be even possible to make a script to automatically generate ObjectDTM's with this?

Like this:
1) MoveMouse to the position you want to walk
2) Press f1
3) DTM created and printed to String.

Sounds awsome. Too bad there are no Objects everywhere.

I think you will find that there is always at least one object, somewhere.
Currently, I have a generating function where you specify a main point, and visible objects for sub-points, and it picks objects, and generates one for you, and prints out the string . If you nest it in the walking function, you can generate one and walk to it in one go, ready to make the next one. I am going to improve it so you specify the number of sub-points, and how many unique objects to use. Finding the mouse's position would be an option, but would have to be done in the browser.

Wow, this seems awesome, will have to check it out :)

From: Camo Developer

Please do so! I haven't received much feedback on actual usage.

Revision 7 release:

• Added cacti to list of useable minimap objects (MM_CACTUS).
• Fixed a rather grievous oversight on my part, and made sure that SMART-related code isn't actually compiled if SMART isn't defined in the script (Making the include browser-compatible).
• Added the rather verbosely-named 'PrintObjDTMRecFromString' - This allows you to pass an Object DTM in string-form, and have the record form print out in the debug. This makes it easy to change the contents of string-form Object DTMs during the writing of your scripts.

Wait, so, this uses the objects (trees, boulders, etc) on the MM to walk? Or can it be anything on the MM?

It uses objects that are defined in the include. Such as a ladder.

I'm using this for the Spinner I'm working on, thanks for this!

That's what I thought, so if you need another object, you could create it and add it. I'll give this a test run this weekend!

Yes, that's the idea, it is made to be modular. I am about to add a few more. Test runs are good!

E: Small revision increase to 7a:

• Added maple trees, and rocks to list of useable minimap objects
(MM_MAPLE), (MM_ROCK).

This brings the number of objects to 10, which, at quick glance, seems to cover almost everywhere.

Yeah I know. Not much trees etc in there… But we could possibly use this to create dungeoneering dtm's.

I can't seem to get it working. The object debug returns all the objects on the screen, the generate object function spits out the string, and when I put it into the walking function, it returns "can't find DTM". I left my character standing still for the whole process, and still it won't recognize it. The generate object tested it and it checked out each time.

Is there something I'm messing up here?

Hey I retried it, and it turns out that I had groundlevel set to false, which was causing the trouble. But, I still can't get the accuracy that I want out of what I am trying to do. Is there a way to pick individual trees instead of the generate function that picks for you? The problem is that the area requires DTMs only using dead trees…

Sure, call GenerateObjDTMSkeleton() and set AreaBox to false, because that is out-dated now, and I haven't updated the function. Copy out the debug information into your script. The line "with x do", change x to the name you want, and make sure you declare that as a variable:

var
  Name: ObjDTM;

Then call ObjectDebug(MM_DEADTREE);

replace the sub-point definitions in the skeleton with the ones in the debug that you want. Use ObjectDTMToString(Name) when you want to find it, or do that and writeln the result, and just store it as a string. I am sorry that it is so difficult, I need to write a set of tutorials, and some better methods for generating them.

Updated the "LumbridgeToVarrock.simba" file to fix an out-of-range error that I assume everyone who has downloaded it has been getting.

Hey man, I downloaded the new versions and tried it out. I had to update a few lines in the LumbridgeToVarrock.simba to get it to compile. Here's the updated version:

It worked, it ran from lumby to south of varrock. But it kept printing out that it couldn't find the DTM. When the script finished, it threw an Access Violation and crashed Simba.

From: Camo Developer
Hey man, I downloaded the new versions and tried it out. I had to update a few lines in the LumbridgeToVarrock.simba to get it to compile. Here's the updated version:

*snip*

It worked, it ran from lumby to south of varrock. But it kept printing out that it couldn't find the DTM. When the script finished, it threw an Access Violation and crashed Simba.

It failed compiling? What caused that? Also, I can't imagine why it would throw an access violation. :/ This is upsetting. Did you try running it again?

Yeah, every time the script finished running it would cause it and Simba would crash.

As for the compiling, on the first line of your "Points" var, right before the comma, you had

Points := ['.....'', '...']

and it was throwing an error because the string wasn't formatted correctly.

I see. Well thank you. I fixed the test script so that it compiles now. I will have to look into why it is crashing for you, though.

Huh, I don't think it's your script. Noticed something. It only does it after I close SMART. It ran much smoother too.

One thing I'm confused about is, as I watched it click the points, it seemed to click on points that were no where near one of the DTMs. Can you explain, or break it down?

Ah, yes, I get that sometimes as well, when I close SMART. Did it make it to the bank? What do you mean when you say it seemed to click on points nowhere near one of the DTMs?

Yeah, it made it to the bank just fine.

Like, and maybe I'm just confused on how this actually works, when it was heading north past the cows in lumby, it clicked on the path to go straight up. Then, when it got to the break in the wall, it clicked next to the field, yet there were none of the objects near that area that are defined on the first post.

Make any sense? Lol.

I think I understand what you mean. When you generate an object DTM, it is made up of sub-points, which are objects on the minimap, and a main-point, which is a coordinate you define. As long as all the sub-points are visible, the code should be able to walk to the main-point. Meaning, when I made the object DTM for that particular spot, it was made using the plants that are around the minimap center, but the main-point was very far up, near the edge of the minimap.

Ahhh, so it the trees, bushes, etc are subpoints not main points. I was thinking it clicked on the objects themselves. Ha, wow, that's simple to understand now lol. Thanks, gonna play around with it.

No problem :) Let me know if you have any other questions.

Where do you download it to?

From: Fauq
Where do you download it to?

Your typical scripts directory

From: euphemism
Sure, call GenerateObjDTMSkeleton() and set AreaBox to false, because that is out-dated now, and I haven't updated the function. Copy out the debug information into your script. The line "with x do", change x to the name you want, and make sure you declare that as a variable:

var
  Name: ObjDTM;

Then call ObjectDebug(MM_DEADTREE);

replace the sub-point definitions in the skeleton with the ones in the debug that you want. Use ObjectDTMToString(Name) when you want to find it, or do that and writeln the result, and just store it as a string. I am sorry that it is so difficult, I need to write a set of tutorials, and some better methods for generating them.

Updated the "LumbridgeToVarrock.simba" file to fix an out-of-range error that I assume everyone who has downloaded it has been getting.

Thank you for the reply. I'm gonna mess around with it now, but probably won't be able to do anything with it until after finals next week.

Doesn't sound that hard, but yes a tutorial would be a nice idea. I'll let you know how it goes.

Released Revision 7c. Updated minimap object record for boulders (MM_BOULDER), it never got updated with the rest of the records in Rev 5. Fixed a small issue with the minimap object record for ladders (MM_LADDER), causing ladder finding to fail on rare occasions. Realized that main-point tracking in the walking function was never implemented- now actually functional. Added a check to catch if a script writer has failed to call "LoadObjects" before using code from the include.

Revision 8 shouldn't be too far away, and should introduce some exciting new features like being able to define an object DTM as a set of multiple object DTMs, so that when finding it, if one of the object DTMs is not found, it will try the next one. Should increase reliability in instances where there are many dots on the minimap. Also coming will be support for paths, with a path-walking function that will run through the points in the path, starting with the last one, and walk to the furthest visible one.

E: Standardized name for the download. Regardless of revision from now on, the latest revision download will be titled 'ObjDTMInclude'. Please see the section titled "A Couple of Notes" for information about this.

This….is….beautiful :) Testing it out and gonna post postive results :) cant wait to use it in my script :)

Exciting news! Switched to a new numbering system to facilitate the move towards auto-installation and updating. An installer for the include is now attached to the bottom of the main post. After running that once, the include should now auto-update whenever a script using it is run.

"[Error] (422:17): Unknown identifier 'IntToPoint' at line 421

"[Error] (422:17): Unknown identifier 'IntToPoint' at line 421

" TestRay0.A := IntToPoint(X, Y); //This sets the test rays to useable segments."

This is an include file, it is not a stand-alone script. You have to include it in your script at the top, under the rest of the include statements like so:

{$i ObjectDTM\ObjDTMInclude.simba}


From there you can use the functions and procedures within your script.

thank you :))
I named it wrong when i tried lmao…

From: kyocera


*snip*

Hey there I'm trying to run THIS SCRIPT but it isn't working out to well…

*snip*

Please see the post I made in Silent_SPY's thread.

So an example of this use is like if you want to check if your Character is in right location? Do you think that it might be able to identify Fences, Bridges etc as well? Dont know how to explain but it can be helpful for identifying where you are and if your close if that makes sense? Soz if it doesnt make much sense :P

~Bro433

Yes you can use objdtms to identify a location by specifying an area polygon in the dtm definition. So basically you'll be saying, there is two trees over there, and a rock. I should be x distance from each with some tolerance on that distance. See Euphemism's Bouvine Extractor for examples of using objdtm areas. I dont think any tutorials have been posted yet.

Revision 8 with the aforementioned features should be out by tomorrow night, or at latest, the following evening. My apologies, as I am on vacation. Originally, it was going to break compatibility with scripts using the current version, but I think I've found a way to get around that. Hopefully, I will also be able to make a comprehensive set of tutorials as well.

E: Revision 8 is out. Lots of changes, lots of new stuff. New stuff is untested, but current scripts shouldn't break. Will update tomorrow with what has actually been changed, and added. Too tired. euphemism out.

Got rid of the unused variable ;). That error usually means you forgot to call "LoadObjects" at the beginning of your script, which I renamed to "SetupODTMI" which I renamed to "ObjDTM_Setup" any of those will work, currently, but I would suggest using "ObjDTM_Setup".

Correct, they will shift a little, but their positions are always relative.

So how do I make dtms to work with http://villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=69080

This isn't the correct thread for that question. Check out Tutorial Island for threads on how to make DTMs.

Could you add a fail-safe in case it logs out to prevent:
That is the debug box on the left, I just stretched it a bit, no idea how long it was doing this for. And it wasn't in a repeat function in my script.

lol why aren't you checking for logged in status before trying to walk?

I need to stay more on top of keeping this thread updated. New stuff, some of it really exciting. I think the ObjDTM_Generate function will please a lot of people. I would appreciate feedback on it. Will try to get tutorials done soon.

-Version 8.7: Bug fix to 'ObjDTMToString', bug caused the area to be
        nulled.  Added the 'ObjDTM_Generate' function.  This is a new
        interactive Object DTM generation tool.  You need SRL5 to use it. 

-Version 8.6: Support for SRL5 added.

-Version 8.5: More small bug fixes/speed improvements, the function additions
in Version 8 still aren't really functional. Sorry :/. Added
'ObjDTM_InAreaEx' Which allows you to specify a specific point to
check to see if it is in the Object DTM's area. There is now
paint debugging, useable by setting the variable
'ObjDTM_Debug' to true in the setup of your script.
Trying to standardize the names of everything. Not there yet.

@Euphemism nice I love interactive tool much easier to use :D also can't wait for the tut some parts of ObjDTM I don't reali get but most of it is probably basic things :P so as a go through how to use different walking methods when I'm done hopefully you'd be making the tut ( dw slow reader ^^ ).

Quick update, Version 8.8 adds the ability to delete sub-points while using 'ObjDTM_Generate', and there is now 'ObjDTM_PathRecorder', which allows you to easily create a path. :D

Cheers.

Learned how to make the paths for these last night, can't wait to give the new functions a try!

Now that I finally get scripting somehow, this is genius!! I will try and implement this when I need to :)

Can I get an update for SRL5 please? :)

I was using SilentSPYs spinner which does not have:

{$DEFINE PAINT}

But is was still looking for the file anyway?

Exception in Script: Unable to find file 'SRL\SRL\MISC\Paintsmart.scar' used from 'C:\Simba\Includes\ObjectDTM\ObjDTMInclude.simba'

Anyway, it's a simple matter of changing the extension to .simba instead of .scar :) (Or add in some IFDEFs.. ) All good though, just thought I'd mention it.

EDIT: Or, maybe you did have it implemented, because when I changed it, it downloaded a new version of ObjectDTMs. I think that was stopping it from compiling, hence stopping it from updating!

make sure everything is updated, as I tested this less than an hour ago and it worked

im using this for crafting in lumby :0

I'm so confused on how to use this.

Is this to be opened up as if opening up DTM Editor? Like an Extension?

Or does it just process everything via functions/procedures to get the ObjDTM String in Debug?

Does this work in SRL4? or just 5?

Sorry for the all the questions, mine as well ask all to know all.

I am getting this error when trying to run the test script.

The error starts with this function InObjDTMArea

Error: Out Of Range at line 537

The error is in the ObjDTmInclude.simba script.

line 357: MaxX := Polygon[1].x;
of the PointIntPolygon function.

But i think the problem is in function ObjDTMFromString;

Does anyone know why this happens or how i can fix this?

This is an include file. Once you run the installer, you should have the include at 'Simba/Includes/ObjectDTM/ObjDTMInclude.simba'. You have to include it in a script in order to use it. So no, it is not like an extension. Yes, everything is done with functions/procedures.

This currently supports both SRL4 and SRL5, but since SRL4 is officially phased out, the next update will not include support for SRL4.

Questions are good, I don't mind.

Sorry about the test script, I haven't looked at it in quite some time. It was never updated to be compatible with the include after I switched to the automatic updater. I have uploaded a fixed version.

Yes, yes. I copied the paintsmart procedures that were just committed into the include some time ago, because they were taking so long to be committed. Should all be fixed up now.

Also, with version 91 comes a new on-SMART guide for the generation tool, which will hopefully help make the generation a little easier. Clicking is now supported for SMART as opposed to hitting keys to add a sub-point, area vertex, or main-point.

E: With a lot of wonderful help from Dgby714, the Object DTM Include now has an unofficial extension!

How To Install!

If i am not in the area with the dtm the script just ends.

How can i make this work?

~Fre

ObjDTM_InArea still does not work for me.
But i am able to make a walk a path.

But it seems that DTMs on MM change too.
Like it can't always find the boulder or the ladders. (ladders are sometimes only shown half)

So i guess DTMs should be adjusted to those changes.
Any idea how this can be done?

EDIT1:
Here is my fix for the half ladders(32 points /2 = 16).
change AvgNumOfPoints := 32;
to
AvgNumOfPoints := 32;

  with Ladder do
  begin
    Color := 602202; CTS := 1; Tol := 7;
    SplitSizeX := 2; SplitSizeY := 2;
    AvgNumOfPoints := 16; AvgTol := 14;
  end;  

EDIT2/
But then i don't work for the ladders that didn't change (ladder with 32 points (full ladders)).

It should be someting like
if not find DTM then
AvgNumOfPoints div 2;
try again;

Your Object DTM does not have an area defined. Therefore, you can't use area-related methods with that particular Object DTM. I will have a tutorial out in a bit explaining everything.

But it seems that DTMs on MM change too.
Like it can't always find the boulder or the ladders. (ladders are sometimes only shown half)

So i guess DTMs should be adjusted to those changes.
Any idea how this can be done?

EDIT1:
Here is my fix for the half ladders(32 points /2 = 16).
change AvgNumOfPoints := 32;
to
AvgNumOfPoints := 32;

  with Ladder do
  begin
    Color := 602202; CTS := 1; Tol := 7;
    SplitSizeX := 2; SplitSizeY := 2;
    AvgNumOfPoints := 16; AvgTol := 14;
  end;  

EDIT2/
But then i don't work for the ladders that didn't change (ladder with 32 points (full ladders)).

It should be someting like
if not find DTM then
AvgNumOfPoints div 2;
try again;


~Fre

Thank you for the input. When exactly are ladders only shown half?

Version 9.3 is out:

-Version 9.3: Stopped scripters from crashing script when trying
              to use area-related methods with an Object DTM with
              no area information.  The include will now print a warning
              and exit the method currently being executed.

             Fixed the Minimap Object Record for
              Cactus (MM_CACTUS).  The include should now be useable
              in the desert.

              Phased out 'InObjDTMArea', use 'ObjDTM_InArea'

              Phased out 'GenerateObjDTM', use 'ObjDTM_Generate'

              Would like to:

              Phased out 'LoadObjects' and 'SetupODTMI', use 'ObjDTM_Setup'

              Phased out 'ObjDTMWalk', use 'ObjDTM_Walk'

              Phased out 'FindObjDTM', use 'ObjDTM_Find'

alrite buddy Working great love the new paint never saw how easy it was as i hardly ever use smart up and running perfectly now

Hey bro i have followed your instructions of installing step by step but when i try update it says 'no update available' thus meaning the directory objectDTM/objectDTM.simba isnt being created so no scripts can work. When i try to do a force update by override i get an access vilolation telling me that i either have to kill the program or riss corrupting data, PLEASE HELP SOMEONE

Are you running Simba as an administrator?

when ever i try to run it i get this clear canvas thing i have the new odtm downloaded

From: euphemism
I think you will find that there is always at least one object, somewhere.
Currently, I have a generating function where you specify a main point, and visible objects for sub-points, and it picks objects, and generates one for you, and prints out the string . If you nest it in the walking function, you can generate one and walk to it in one go, ready to make the next one. I am going to improve it so you specify the number of sub-points, and how many unique objects to use. Finding the mouse's position would be an option, but would have to be done in the browser.

I think there is a GetRealMousePos function somewhere, that returns the actual mouse position even when using smart used for paint so you can mouse over things.

From: euphemism
I think you will find there is a lack of these objects on the minimap when doing dungeoneering, not to mention that dungeons are dynamically created every time you start one. That means that object DTMs are not really applicable for dungeoneering: however, what is it you are finding difficult with navigating a dungeon?

What would be a good way to navigate a dungeon?

What are you trying to tell me? I use GetRealMousePos with the new generating function.

This is not relevant to my thread, please post somewhere more relevant.

Version 9.4 is out, this version will phase out the current extension and replace it with a new one that points to a new domain.

I just gotta say, big kudos to you man. I'll be sure to include this into my future scripts! This makes walking in common areas extremely easy :)

E: Would you look at that; Now you have two rep balls :)

Is this the right idea? I didnt really understand the area part.

Everytime I click on SMART to draw the area, it records a different point like 3px higher than where i clicked.

From: Siel

That depends. If you are walking to that spot, then yes, that is the right idea. If you performed a check for the area with 'ObjDTM_InArea' it would return false because the player, the minimap center, is not within the area.

This is an issue with GetRealMousePos, and happens with certain Windows installations, and when you run Simba in WINE. I've got a solution to your problem though, a new form-based generation tool! :) :


The 'Multi' and 'Multi-path' tabs aren't yet operational. Those are a surprise. ;) However, the tool supports the creation of single Object DTMs, and paths. Please give it a go, I need feedback!

-Version 9.5: Added NPC dots to list of useable minimap objects (MM_NPC).
              Please note that only stationary NPC's, like bankers, should
              be used.  

              Created a new generation tool.  Super exciting.
              Please see:
              'Simba/Includes/ObjectDTM/Object DTM Generation Tool.simba'
              So far, only the 'Single' tab, and the 'Path' tab are
              functional.  These two will allow you to make single Object
              DTMs, and paths.

Thanks boi ill try it out…

From: Yago
Thanks boi ill try it out…

Please do, boi…

With version 9.6, the generation tool is now a part of the 'ODTM' menu in Simba's toolbar. Hopefully this makes it easier to access. :)

E: 9.7 bug fix, 9.8 adds the 'Delete ODTM' button to the tool, so that you can delete the current Object DTM being edited.

Stupid question, but after we add the *extension, does already having it installed would *check for updates on the ODTM menu tab work to get the latest versions? As in not needing to go back to this thread to get a newer one?

From: blinkblink

Correct. Though, when there is an update the extension should grab it after a while. 'Check for Update' will grab an update if there is one.

euphemism, this looks amazing… I'm actually going to try and integrate this with walking to Frogs back and fourth, see how it pans out. I'm very impressed I haven't stumbled across this yet o.O

Oh and yes, of course, REPPPP'd.

Thanks much. I actually made test paths to and from the frogs, and they work well. ;)

Also of note, Version 9.9 (99) has been released, including a fix for the half-ladders glitching into existence that some people have mentioned. A path-walking function has finally been implemented, and I removed the functions 'ObjDTM_Generate', and 'ObjDTM_PathRecorder' as the new generation tool has replaced them.


Scripters: If you are still using 'FindObjDTM', 'ObjDTMWalk', or 'LoadObjects' in your scripts, please change them to 'ObjDTM_Find', 'ObjDTM_Walk', and 'ObjDTM_Setup' respectively. The older functions will be removed in the next update.

-Version 9.9: Added the function 'ObjDTM_WalkPath'.  The include now
              contains a function to easily walk paths contained within
              TStringArrays.  Tweaked minimap object record for ladders
              to account for the strange half-ladders that crop up on
              occasion.  Removed the function 'ObjDTM_Generate' and removed
              the function 'ObjDTM_PathRecorder' these two have been
              rendered obsolete with the new generation tool shipped with
              the include.  'FindObjDTM' and 'ObjDTMWalk' will be removed
              in the next version.  If they are being used in your scripts
              please update to use 'ObjDTM_Find' and 'ObjDTM_Walk' instead.

Thank you, learned a lot from this tutorial. I'm implementing this in my little "future release" script. Just wondering, and assuming the answer is yes, but if I were to release this, would people need to download the ObjectDTM extension to be able to run a script that includes it? I know it sounds like a stupid question. :duh:

Once you move the .sex file to your extensions, close up simba and open a new one. It should be working then.

So I'm finally getting around to using this, just finished my radials. One thing: make your debug optional. For some reason I like a clean debug box when I'm not actually debugging.

Will do. So, should probably let everyone know what is going on with version 10.0:

• Will be adding Multi-Object DTMs
• Will be adding Multi-Object DTM Paths
• Will add filtering for minimap dots in the object finding code to help remedy covered objects.
• Removing 'ObjDTMWalk', and 'FindObjDTM'. They have been replaced with 'ObjDTM_Walk', and 'ObjDTM_Find'.
• Because there is now a unified tool for making Object DTMs, I will be removing the 'GroundLevel' parameter from the functions, as the property will be able to be built into the Object DTMs. Unfortunately because of this, all current Object DTMs will break; however, the fix will be easy.
• Text debug will be optional, just as the paint debug is.

Sweet. I'm definitely looking forward to it. You've made this into a work of art, euphemism, I'm thoroughly impressed.

Step one) Download "ObjectDTM.sex" from the first post.
Step two) Wherever you downloaded it to, copy (or cut) it
Step three) Open your main Simba folder (Probably C:/Simba) and open up the "Extensions" folder inside there and inside that folder paste your "ObjectDTM.sex"
Step four) Close out Simba (if you still have it open) and restart it

Copy the file to your Simba/Extensions folder. Then open up simba and activate the extension.

Thankyou! :D

Hi, so I know this kinda makes me look like a leecher.. but I just discovered Simba about a week ago and I'm trying to figure it out. I'm a programming newb so I'm like in way over my head. I am trying to figure it out though, I have started to look through Coh3n's tutorial and all that good stuff. My question regarding ObjectDTM has to do with this picture:

As you can see I downloaded ObjectDTM.sex and moved it into the Extensions folder. I try to Enable the Extension through Simba and I get that error in the debugger.

Thanks in advance for any help!

i get Unable to find file 'ObjectDTM\ObjDTMInclude.simba' used from all the time i have no idea what to do

What script?
And did you follow these steps?

- Download 'ObjectDTM.sex' at the bottom of this post.

- Move the file to 'Simba/Extensions'.

- If you have Simba open, close it.

- Open Simba.

- go to 'View>Extensions'.

- enable 'ObjectDTM.sex'.

- go to 'ODTM>Check For Update'.

That's from the first post.

i cant find ODTM update Wont come up :o i did everything else

How come My ObjectDTM disappeared from the options where "file" "edit" "SRL" "SPS" and ect. are located at?

I went to to go to 'View>Extensions'. ObjectDTM is enabled, but it says NA for version.

The script works..however it will take an inventory full of flax and once it only spins two flax it will go back to bank (with 26 of the flax not even spun).

How do I fix this? :)

This happens when I level up..I think the script thinks that I leveled up and thus it should return to the bank? Not entirely sure.

NVM I found out how to fix it..just make sure your game filter isn't showing the level up messages and stuff…(the lowest setting is filter), so I just click on clan chat or something else so it just doesn't show at all.

This thread is for the Object DTM Include, not Silent SPY's flax spinner. Please post in the correct thread.

and how i can move the DTM to -> extensions?

I know most people say there are no dumb questions, but i cannot figure out how to move the file into simba/extensions or find where simba/extensions is for that matter… any tips?


nevermind, i figured that part out, but now whenever i try to enable it this pops up.
Loading extension C:\Simba\Extensions\ObjectDTM.sex

how do u move it!!!!!!!!!

I downloaded the objectDTM.sex file, moved it to Simba > extensions then opened Simba and enabled it.

It said version 0.2. The downloaded file size was 1.44k.

But when I clicked check update, it said no update available.

I went to check the ODTM file, size became 0 and version became N/A in Simba. I think the update thingy is broken or something, or is it just me?

To move it you simply find the Simba file ( Usually found in C: ) go to the folder called "Extensions" and drag it into there. ALL steps needed are found on the first post if you read the entire post instead of hopping into it without know what you're doing. :duh:

All of you posting these questions like I quoted should take some time and read before posting. Makes you look less like an idiot and keeps the thread from being cluttered with junk. This is a quote from the FIRST post with step by step how to do this.

How To Install!
——————————————-

- Download 'ObjectDTM.sex' at the bottom of this post.


- Move the file to 'Simba/Extensions'. ("Simba" being the install location of Simba. On windows, usually at "C:\")

- If you have Simba open, close it.

- Open Simba.

- go to 'View>Extensions'.

- enable 'ObjectDTM.sex'.

- go to 'ODTM>Check For Update'.

Only way he could have possibly made this any more simple for you is to do it for you.

It looks like the extension failed to successfully download the remote version of itself off of the server, and so overwrote itself with a bad copy. I have implemented some fail-safes to prevent this from happening in the future, but you will have to re-download the extension attached to the first post to get this fix, as your copies are corrupt.

As for version 10.0 of the include, I have been side-tracked as of late, but I do hope to have that finished relatively soon.

could someone please help me for my thread under this URL, http://villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=72067&page=2

What if this was done for each individual tile in an area with enough objects
could you in theory make almost coordinate like tile detection using it?

Nevermind, redownloading simba fixed this problem

Redownloaded the ObjectDTM.sex file, deleted the last one and replaced the new one.

Same thing is happening. It says the version is N/A

The OBjectDTM bar doesnt appear when i enable it.

Hi, I moved the file to the extensions, then when I enable ObjectDTM.sex, nothing shows up for me to update… What am I doing wrong?

Awesome job Euphemism–this is a great tool:)

Could you add a minimap object for the new bloodwood trees in the wilderness in the next update? They're basically an off red circle on the otherwise black minimap in the wilderness so they'd be a great identifying object!

+rep

Edit: The ObjDTM also seems unable to currently find dead trees in the wilderness (e.g. they don't show up on the finder, might be elsewhere as well)–probably due to the same bloodwood tree update. I think they slightly changed the silhouette of dead trees with this past update.

Open up Simba.
Go to the 'View' Drop-down Menu
Select 'Extension Menu'
ObjDTM should now show along the top.

Whenever I start the script I instantly get this error

Exception in Script: Unable to find file 'ObjectDTM/ObjDTMInclude.simba' used from ''

Anyone know how to fix? thanks for the script

So, Im trying to ODTM walking, but the editor is not picking up dead trees when I click the gather object for dead trees, they are clearly on the mini map, but it does not pick them up, any ideas? If it helps, its in the wilderness by the canoe station.

why cant i read or open the objectdtm.sex?

Are bloodwood trees a frequent occurrence in the game now? Jagex did indeed alter the dead tree colors, and they should now be updated and working again.

See above response.

This update has not brought with it the features I have planned on account of me not having the time to get them implemented. However, the changelog is as follows:

-Version 10.0: Updated the minimap object record for dead trees (MM_DEADTREE).
              Fixed the bug in 'ObjDTM_WalkPath' when the first node was not
              found and the include threw an out-of-range error.
              Added three new global variables: 'ObjDTM_TextDebug',
              'ObjDTM_XRand', and 'ObjDTM_YRand'.  By default,
              'ObjDTM_TextDebug' is set to false, and the include will rarely,
              if ever, write something to the debug box.  After calling
              'ObjDTM_Setup' in your script, you can set this to true in order
              to restore text debugging.  'ObjDTM_XRand' and 'ObjDTM_YRand' are
              integers that specify the randomness with which the include will
              click at the main-point of an Object DTM. By default, these
              values are set to 2.  After calling 'ObjDTM_Setup' in your script,
              you can set these to determine click randomness.  

Awesome–thank you for the quick update! It's nice to see my paths working again haha:p

Bloodwood trees are in set positions through out the wilderness (there's also one by soul wars and by the edgeville lodestone too, both of which would be useful for positioning!) so perhaps they would be a good extra object to add if you have the time sometime:)

edit: the added randomness is also pretty cool!
edit:edit: On a separate thought, if you consider adding bloodwood trees as an object, would you also consider adding the red "drop on ground" dots as an object? Like the NPC object there are some that are always in the same spot, so it would also be a useful object. It would add another level of position finding in certain dungeons where ladders and those red drop dots are all that are on screen!

Open up Simba

Click on View -> Extensions

Find ObjDTM.sex and enable it

Now when you click on View -> Extensions Menu, you should have a drop-down menu called ODTM

Everyone who is having troubles update simba GO to tools>update!!

Um theres something wrong the bot starts perfectly it gets the flax out and then heads downstairs and then walks near the spinner and does nothing and then just logs HElp?

Make sure SMART is enabled and that you have selected the client. If you open the Generation Tool and decide to comment out SMART with a '//' the you must select the entire client with the red box - nothing should get in the way.

Also, make sure when you select the client the Runescape window doesn't flash black, it might not work.

Looked around for a fix on this error but can't find anything.

Error:

If I remove that then I get:

Any clue how I could fix this?

It has to do with having 2 includes that have the same variables. I know if I have paintsmart and objdtm includes it gives me a duplicate identifier error.

I have followed the steps but it didn't work

Show me you enabling ObjectDTM.sex and then View -> Extensions Menu.

thank you for helping :D

@andy, for some reason it isn't highlighted green. Could you play around a bit and see if you can get it to highlight green?

@euphenism, maybe in the a future update you could add the ability to post ObjectDTM's back into the Generation Tool. For example, in the DTM Editor you can post your DTM back in and check it.

It works now!!!thank you, abu_jwka !!:D

You'll have to wait for the next update I guess.

Just out of curiosity, when exactly does this error occur? As soon as you start the script or as soon as the ObjDTM function is called?

As soon as i press play on lunar plank script it pulls up objdtminclude and it says error line 216

Excuse me, where exactly does that indicate an error with my include? That screenshot clearly shows an error in the certer's random solver. This was due to a bad push by a dev to the SRL repo; you need to update SRL.

As for those having issues updating, it looks like maybe you have firewalls preventing Simba from accessing where the include is hosted. Maybe check on that and post results.

My ODTM Version is '101' which apparently is the latest version and all my updates claim to be successful.

However when trying to compile a script of mine which uses ObjectDTM's, the ObjectDTM Include opens up and I get the error:

[Error] C:\Simba\Includes\ObjectDTM\ObjDTMInclude.simba(217:3): Duplicate identifier 'T2DStringArray' at line 216

The line is:

T2DStringArray = Array of TStringArray;

I can fix this line myself but I'm not sure what affect it might have on other functions so yeh, not working for me :(

Uuh I re-downloaded this after uninstalling Simba, it can't get updates now. Can someone with the files post them here?

Agreed, silentscripts.net is still dead, can anyone post the code for the objectdtminclude.simba?

Normal update works for me now.

For people who are getting the 'Cannot find ObjectDTM' error.

Make sure there is a file named ObjDTMInclude in the folder C:\Simba\Includes\ObjectDTM

If it's not there - you need to re install properly.

If it is, try turning the slash / around in the script where it says:

{$i ObjectDTM/ObjDTMInclude.simba}

Just some ideas there.

I wish this would work…………………………………………………

I fixed it! :D
I'm not sure how but I opened the extension itself from my downloads folder.
That opened up simba and the ran the script that it had pulled up.

Not sure if this will help you solve our problem or not. Read through this thread and used other peoples tricks as well and none of them seemed to work for me either. This never creates a file in the "includes" folder either. Seems to be that the path and file ObjectDTM/ObjDTMInclude.simba never gets created. Being that this is only a download for a .sex file and not a .simba file I'm assuming that should be downloaded through the update.


EDIT: Someone posted the ObjDTMInclude.simba file in this thread: http://villavu.com/forum/showthread.php?t=82829 Download this and make an ObjectDTM folder in your includes folder and it should work fine. TY to 'Chig' for posting that for all of us.

Ps. I found the solution to the problem. Apparently it has to do with your Java version, mine was not updated to the latest version of java, when I updated it, it worked smoothly.

Seen a lot of errors on this thread lately, but when I updated to simba 0.99, odtm ceased to work for me, when I downgraded to 0.98, it was all fine. Maybe that could fix some issues?

Hmm? As far as I can tell, he is talking about differing Simba versions, not two versions of the include.

Sorry, I'll write a better response now.

After installing Simba 0.99, I installed all my plugins as normal and then loaded up a script which used your system, and I got an error.

[Error] C:\Simba099\Includes\ObjectDTM\ObjDTMInclude.simba(217:3): Duplicate identifier 'T2DStringArray' at line 216
Compiling failed.

I checked and double checked to see if I had any plugins missing, any updates I hadn't installed, but I had done all my updates to the latest version, as well as using the fix for this error posted earlier in the thread. The error is still the same.

[Error] C:\Simba099\Includes\ObjectDTM\ObjDTMInclude.simba(217:3): Duplicate identifier 'T2DStringArray' at line 216
Compiling failed.

After I uninstalled Simba 0.99, I reinstalled Simba 0.98, which for me at least, has no issues with your extension. Hope this helps, again, sorry for an undescriptive post, busy inductions for school.

From: abu_jwka
Look at earlier posts - I came up with a simple fix.

I keep getting this error:

[Error] C:\Simba99\Includes\objectdtm/objdtminclude.simba(217:3): Duplicate identifier 'T2DStringArray' at line 216
Compiling failed.

Now I have looked at the earlier posts you made and although you mention that you get this error and that you could fix it yourself, you never really showed how to fix this error.

I would appreciate it if you can show me where in the earlier post you created a fix for this error.

Much appreciated and thanks in advance for the help on this problem.

You should change the top of ObjDTMInclude.simba to:

{$IFDEF SMART}
  {$IFNDEF PAINT}
    {$DEFINE PAINT}
    {$IFDEF SIMBAMAJOR980}
      {.include SRL\SRL\MISC\Paintsmart.simba}
    {$ELSE}
      {.include SRL\SRL\Misc\SmartGraphics.simba}
    {$ENDIF}
  {$ENDIF}
{$ENDIF} 

To get over the compatibility issues…

also T2DStringArray already exists in Simba 990 so you should probably change it to:

{$IFDEF SIMBAMAJOR980}
  T2DStringArray = Array of TStringArray; 
{$ENDIF}

The first suggestion was already done when requesting help, the second part is already the same in the latest ObjectDTM.sex download in the first post.

But just to make sure I copied your sample above and it still gives the same error.

When I exclude T2DStringArray = Array of TStringArray; by commenting it, as it cries that it is a duplicate, that means it was already declared somewhere and as stated by you that it is included in simba 99 then it gives me other errors in objectDTM namely

Unknown, identifier, 'SmartGetDebugDC'

I have now searched for this error and how to fix it and everybody says it is because the plugins is outdated, but i have downloaded the newest plugins.zip from New plugins (zip or tar.bz2): https://github.com/MerlijnWajer/Simba/downloads (Make sure you don't let the SRL updater Extension override them… )

I think that is the latest plugins, I have overwritten the existing plugins in simba directory with these, but it keeps giving me this error or the last one I mentioned.I really don`t know where the problem is where I`m screwing up. But from the moment I upgraded to simba 99 these problems cropped up. I understand that if the plugins is outdated it will have problems, but the link I gave is the official link in simba 99 release. So I would guess that that should be the latest plugins that should work with simba 99. I have now overwritten these plugins once more with the downloaded plugins and it should do the trick by overwriting the older files shouldn`t it?

I`m a bit flabbergasted here. But maybe I`m just not doing it right.

Any suggestion? Thanks guys, I appreciate your time and effort in helping me to get this sorted out. It just feels as if I`m hitting my head against the same wall all the time. :frusty:

Releasing a quick fix for the RS update, as it broke the generation tool. Also notable are the following:

-Version 10.2: Optimised object-finding code and fixed a bug that could have
               been the root cause of many false positives.  Removed the
               'T2DStringArray' type declaration as it was for an older planned
               revision of the include, future plans now do not include
               multi-dimensional strings, and it was causing duplicate errors.
               Improved the ground level check.Fixed certain coordinates in the
               Generation Tool that have been affected by the addition of a
               toolbar at the top of the RS client.  Removed 'ObjectDebug', as
               it is obsolete.  Changed the include lines at the top,
               $DEFINEPAINT is no longer needed.

               Sorry for the lack of updates this year, am trying to get back
               on track with this and hope to be producing some exciting
               features soon.  

Wanted to get this out because the other changes I am making to the include are quite large and are taking a bit of time.

When Installing the .sex file, I have this related issues. I`m currently using simba99 so I don`t know if it is related to that or not.

When I enable the extension, it does not display a menu for odtm, I have to enable and disable it like 3 or 4 times before the menu option is given, when I update is it keeps displaying odtm version as 3 in the extensions options. When I close Simba and open it again the extension is disabled and the menu item gone. Then I once more have to go through the whole process to get the menu back up.

Thanks for this nifty utility.

I think he told me it had something to do with the different points and some sort of tolerance that they had… But I don't remember for sure.

Not sure if he has different versions stored somewhere, the only place that I know of that the code is online is on my hosting here: http://silentscripts.net/objdtm/

Not sure what that is about. I will look into it.

From: Yago

Currently, yes. Probably the next update is where all the big changes will occur. One being that Object DTMs will have a tolerance so that a specified percentage of the sub-points can be missing and an Object DTM will still result as found.

Really? Do you think you might be able to screenshot this or something? In the object finding code, I changed a loop that was involved with the tolerance of the color for the object being searched.

No, the include is not on Github, but I plan on putting it up soon. Sorry about that.

In other news, small update to 10.3 to make the include compatible with the changes in SRL related to the new SMART binaries.

-Version 10.3: Made compatible with newest SMART and changes within SRL.

Just a quick update. When launching the generation tool it does not log you in with simba99.

When logging in without smart and targeting the client it clicks on the compass and terminate the script.

This error in the debug window: Error: Exception: Access violation at line 983

ThreadSafeCall('ToolForm_Init', v);

I have not tried to edit the Y axis in the script, don`t know if that will make a difference with the bar at the top that screws everything up at the moment.

No, it will not login because that is handled by SRL which is not functional at the moment. I am not sure what is causing the form to crash. I will have to look into it later.

I FIGURED THIS OUT. I JUST HAD TO DOWNLOAD IT FROM A DIFFERENT BROWSER OTHER THAN SAFARI.

I've run out of things to try. Aftering re-installing simba around 3 times i still can't get the script to run. whenever i try to run the script, another tab in simba opens and this is what it says.

Why do you think this has anything to do with the Object DTM Include?

EDIT- Found the issue. it did have to do with the script, but most likely my simba is setup wrong or differently from other peoples.

The error would be thrown with or without ODTM installed, the reason it is not coming up when you haven't got ODTM installed is because it is detecting that the script requires the include and therefore that is the first error being encountered.

Your secondary error has nothing to do with ODTM.
Due to the fact that it is opening up SmartGraphics.simba I would hedge a guess that your second error pertains to that include

the ODTM glitches my Simba…. it won't even start.
after re-installation, simba runs normally again. would you fix it fast please? ;D

please message me i need help with ObjectDTM for extension im not good with this

im confused on this need help adding it to extinction please message back

Awesome :D i got it to work :) Thank you so much for this thing

My simba hangs up, then i try to ad this extensions? any help? :?

To make ODTM appear you must restart Simba. But closing Simba gives an error. The error froce closes Simba and the extension is no longer enabled.

How to fix?

Does anyone have a link to ObjectDTMInclude.

From: Dynam0
Does anyone have a link to ObjectDTMInclude.

Follow the steps, it auto-downloads it.

I think I am having the same issue as Bi A Op. I have installed/enabled ODTM (after having to try enable it a few times within the extensions menu). Afterwards (before and after restarting SIMBA), the ODTM menu does not show up, and does not appear to be enabled again.

As such, I cannot have it auto-update and download DTMInclude.simba


Update: So. It seems I had to click enable within the Extension Menu a few times before it actually enabled it. Then I had to close SIMBA (wait for it to dissapear from task manager). Restart Simba ONCE, patiently wait for it to boot up. You will then see the ODTM on the menu.

However, when trying to update the ODTM, it says it cannot find the file. I went onto the website manually (silentscripts.net/objdtm/ObjectDTM.tax.bz2) and found that the website is down or gone.

As such, I cannot update ODTM to get ObjDTMInclude.

Can anyone else let me know if someone else is currently hosting the current copy of ODTM?

im having this problem as well. it seems the silentscript.net/objdtm site is down.

The silentscripts.net domain itself is down. Until the ObjectDTM include and files are hosted elsewhere, or that site gets put up again, then the updating won't work.

Here guys, I took the liberty to upload them for you.

Make sure that u downloaded OBJECTDTM.sex on the OP!
And enable it.
it takes a minute or 2 until you see this change on simba, after you enabled Objectdtm.sex :
to
Put ObjDTMInclude.SIMBA in a new folder C:\Simba\Includes\ObjectDTM

And as u guessed, Object DTM Generation Tool.simba is the tool used to make Object DTMs

Hope u won't have any problems anymore.

Can't really recommend doing that. This include hasn't been updated to work with old-school Runescape, and as such it is probably best to just wait for that to occur.

best I could do for a proggy, had to very briefly pause it to get some more hides from the collection box, then I restarted it exactly where it should have been but caused it to crash and stop. good script if you leave it alone, the second you interfere it gets a bit touchy, but much better than doing it by hand :)
thanks!

@euphemism: You really should release a OSR version of this include, it would work wonderfully here and without a doubt be the dominating form of walking in OSR scripts. This will indeed still work in OSR with some simple updates to the DTMs and just a couple tweaks here and there in the generation tool. The trees aren't exactly the same but they're still detected in OSR along with NPC dots (of course). Using these two I was able to walk back and fourth from Catherby bank to the fishing spots with no trouble.

I really recommend you take a bit of time and update the DTMs enough to classify this as "OSR-compatible".

Edit:
Oh yeah, one other piece I'll throw in. I tested this in the normal browser (for what it's worth), not SMART. I doubt it makes a difference though.

Well, the format of the Object DTMs wouldn't require any changing. The only things that would require updating to make this OSR compatible would be to change the object records' colors and tolerances, and if there are any coordinate literals those would need to be changed. Other than that, nothing else should need to be touched.

Sounds good then. Yeah that's what I'm doing right now, just adjusting the colors/AVG points/tolerances/AVG tolerances. Trees, boulders, dead trees and ladders are finished; I'm about to finish up the rest. I've a question though, for 'MM_HENGE', where might I find that in RS? I'm not familiar with it. Also, 'MM_ROCK' is the symbol for a mining rock on the MM?

The henge object refers to the minimap objects for the Stonehenge like area just to the southeast of the southern Varrock entrance. I believe the rocks would be the reddish-brown rocks on the map.

As a heads up to you, euphemism, the colors in the OSR minimap are very dynamic as I've found out. I'm having to load SMART multiple times to get quite a big array of colors for each object. 'Tis a pain to deal with but maybe this was normal for you when you made them the first time?

As a heads up to you, euphemism, the colors in the OSR minimap are very dynamic as I've found out. I'm having to load SMART multiple times to get quite a big array of colors for each object. 'Tis a pain to deal with but maybe this was normal for you when you made them the first time?

I will be more than willing to be your tester lol. I understand how annoying the color changes in OSR. It messed up my script several times before I could find a color that works well.

The henge object refers to the minimap objects for the Stonehenge like area just to the southeast of the southern Varrock entrance. I believe the rocks would be the reddish-brown rocks on the map.

I always wondered about that, thanks. Sometimes in EOC it detects fence corners as "henges" though so I wasn't sure.

As for converting this to OSR, aside from the massive tolerances (compared to eoc) the problem again lies with the difference between the compass and the minimap right now objDTM rotates the dtm by what the compass says and searches it but to make this successful in OSR i think you need to add a start/end search angles.

Also the ODTM Generator uses ClickNorth to line up the map, but in 07 I think the map would need to be lined up manually because if how much the compass is off by.

Im talking more of finding the dtms, if you rotate the dtm to 85 degrees and the compass is actually 96 deg there's a good chance it wont find it.

Ok well I have the trees object being detected 100% of the time so if anyone would like to test this for themselves:

with MMObjRecords[MM_TREE] do
  begin
    Color := 1005867; CTS := 2; Tol := 10;
    HueMod := 0.29; SatMod := 2.95;
    SplitSizeX := 1; SplitSizeY := 1;
    AvgNumOfPoints := 25; AvgTol := 12;
  end;

That's probably the most important object. I'm currently working on Boulders and Ladders also and I would post what I have on them at this point but apparently I don't have enough colors to where both of these objects are recognized after every new client I load up. I am getting close though, I imagine I'll have both of them finished today, I just have to keep loading up new clients to get new colors for both objects.

Also, there's no way CTS1 will work for any of the objects in OSR, the colors are just far too dynamic.

Obviously, there a number of things that require attention, but I believe an OSR implementation is more than feasible. I will get on it when I can.

E: Flight, OSR minimap colors are that dynamic?

That's what I like to hear. It'll take some time and many, many new SMARTs/clients loaded but indeed it's very possible. Let me know how your progress is coming along and if there's anything I can do to help. At the moment I'm just trying to work on the object records as they'll be the most difficult to finish.

Yes they are indeed. Take a look at the two ACA's I've had opened for the past 4 days or so, 1 is for gathering the ladder colors and the other is for boulders. You can see the big difference between each color. Each color (basically) represents a new client loaded. That is how dynamic these colors are.

I will certainly let you know if there is anything with which you can help. If you are interested in updating the records then that would be an excellent place to start. To be honest, that looks pretty standard as far as number of required colors to grab is concerned.

Can you tell me what does AvgTol means? I'm editing the record for my own use. Updated the trees colors, made a palm tree record, now updating the rocks. And it's working good so far, hope color doesn't change too much.

As well as AvgNumOfPoints please.

First, AvgNumOfPoints is what it says, the average number of points. This refers to the length of the TPA of each object DTM.

An example, you're looking for boulders on the minimap. You search for the color and that is split into, roughly, 5x5 boxes, and you've found 3 of those, 3 boulders. One contains 18 points (of the dark gray color), the second contains 26 and the third contains 33 points. So your "AvgNumOfPoints" would be about 26 with the "AvgTol" being 8. So when the actual object-finding function works it'll split the object color and search each separate TPA to make sure the length of the TPA = "AvgNumOfPoints" with a tolerance +/- "AvgTol". A literal example would be:

if inRange(length(TPA[i]), AvgNumOfPoints - AvgTol, AvgNumOfPoints + AvgTol) then
    This_TPA_is_a_boulder;

This is done so if someone on the minimap, that contains that exact color, has too much or too little color in the H/W area then it's not counted as an ObjectDTM. I hope that makes sense!

Thanks for the explanation! Now I know where I've done wrong. Thank you very much!

EDIT: I'm gonna treat ObjDTM as a backup walking method, expecting good news from your progress with Reflection/Injection. :D

Will this be updated to use SRL-6? Because I downloaded it and it couldn't compile because it wasn't using SRL-6

In theory, yes, though the deciding factor is the amount of free time I have.

Please update it if you have the free time
I'll help too!! Just tell me what to do :p
I'd rather use this over SPS and the likes…

hey i've downloaded the objectdtm thingy through the link provided. The problem is that it got downloaded as a text. I tried changing the file name to .sex instead of the .sex.txt it originally got downloaded as. But the extension still did not pop up in the extension list. what's wrong? Really need and appreciate all the help i can get. thanks.

it's okay.. realised that it was the browser problem.. used chrome instead of safari and everything worked out fine :)

Glad to hear you got it worked out, but at this time the project is in a less-than-usable state. Hopefully this summer I can come in and rewrite it.
