SRL Archive - RS has been updated.

New RS update changed the Chooseoption text. Another OCR update?

Yup, tested it with banker, looks like theyll do something minor to throw us off all the time, like they broke compass.

That was fast, can anyone else confirm this? I autoed last night (8 hours ago) and was fine.

Is it possible to save more than one font in Simba? Meaning that it would look for more than just one font. This could come in handy if Jagex keeps rotating different fonts every week or two, so if some update they go back to the "old" font we would already have it in store in Simba and no SRL update was needed.

I'm texting with my phone so I tried to keep it short, I'll explain more when I get to my computer if people don't understand the idea.

I don't see why not. Yet we could even automatically detect which font they are using.

Yes it's possible. Wizzup/other people were talking about a method to just grab/create fonts during runtime I think, that would be a cool solution.

Whoa, that's possible? I'm guessing the same OCR for uptext to filter the background would be used?

I THINK it is… I remember seeing some talk about something like that…. I think!

Would be revolutionary to be honest. Imagine if we had something like that when they added the new fonts years ago. So much time saved. :)

This is rather annoying, I'm still having a hard time as to why they are still messing around with the items too, they look like absolute crap. If I didn't know that I withdrew a shark in my inventory, I wouldn't know what the hell that thing is in my inventory…

It's possible to get all the fonts through OpenGL. I think it would be easiest to just compare the found bitmaps to each font and then decide what font it is. Use that font until it doesn't work and then try all the other fonts again.

I wonder when they start mixing those fonts.

When they want to piss off their user base.

Couldn't it check to see if the menu is up then just do a comparable til it finds the font then use that by default until it doesn't recognise anymore?

The problem is you can't just tell if you ``recognize'' a font.

That's exactly what I was trying to say.

An important piece of information

They are still using SmallChars for chooseoption, that's not the problem here.

Look closely, they are using shadow now and possibly random spacing.

You could ofc just make a script that writeln's the output and you can manually tell if its correct.
Like youd just need to press a button which would tell script to try another fontset till it finally returns correct.

I've noticed that if you just leave the dialog box open it sways (moves from side to side) a bit, but very slowly…


Edit: NVM it's the random spacing in effect D:

+ More transparency.


:smile:

They use random spacing, same font and different colours for the text. I'm not sure if they also do something with transparency. (I only saw one picture).

We'll need a filter for this, my shadow filter probably fits perfectly. Or we could even just look at the shadow; that's probably the best idea.

E: Shadows are not an option, they sometimes leave shadows out?

:smile:

It also keep changing sometimes it doesnt have transparency at all.

Again i'm betting they are gonna do this daily now?
Is this easy to fix since if they do this too often then we can't use simba alot.

I really like this idea!

We can use Home's StringMatch can't we? That should fix the spacing issues.

No. The spacing has to be dealt with when the bitmaps of the fonts are created.

So basically fonts have to be constantly redone? I'm not completely sure, since I've never worked with making font bitmaps for SRL.

Random spacing in ChooseOption is something new. I just saw this too.

I didn't notice any random spacing, but I've been testing on one picture only.

Anyway, I have chooseoption working again - with shadows. I just need to add the shadows to the font correctly. Perhaps I'll create a method without shadows now too. :)

I recall someone made a function to get all the text from the option menu. Where can I find that?

Should be in text. (The include)

Dynamic bitmaps? Color tolerance? Database of fonts? Why is Jagex bothering with these updates? Waste our time?

They do this becouse they are bored themselves now that reflection is down they are paying their anti bot dev's for nothing.

Yeah :( Was trying to run Naturez script, and couldn't withdraw pure essence.
Had to check SRL to see if Runescape was updated again :/
It seems so..Any fix for this issue? Let me know if you guys need help.

i noticed that my powerchopper wouldent drop logs,i reinstaled simba…then i realized they updated rs :mad: hows the update comeing along guys ? :)

OCR is currently being worked on. There are some issues regarding shadows behind text. May take a couple days to fix, or it might even be within the next few hours. It really depends on the location of that shadowing of the text, in my opinion.

O ok Well Aneyway Good Luck With That :D, i wish i could script :'(

If jagex decides to do more of these updates maybe consider adding a option to talk to the banker and bank in that way so atleast the banking still works when there are updates just as a second option when chooseoption is down.
Let's hope reflection comes back so jagex won't be focussing on simba for a while.

While messing with this I noticed that the colors of the menu change a bit more than they used to, they change when the opacity changes, the spacing can change while one menu is open(leave the menu open and watch it change occasionally), and that SortATPAFromFirstPoint doesn't sort as I would like it to.

Hehe, it's a weird function but also quite useful. ;)

getting this error..
Error: Exception: LoadFont: Directory C:\Simba\Fonts\SmallCharsNS does not exists. at line 188
The following DTMs were not freed: [SRL - Lamp bitmap, 1]
The following bitmaps were not freed: [SRL - Mod bitmap, SRL - Admin bitmap]

how do you fix this? i just updated SRL and caused Simba to stop working

Place the extracted folder in your "Fonts" folder in your main Simba folder.
^Said folder 3 times in one sentence. :garfield:

ChooseOption should be functional now. I've been botting Falador West Mine (my own script I'm working on), for a few hours now. Everything is A-Ok.

ChooseOption will be a problem since it's adding random spaces between letters every single time interval. We need something else in order to make'em working, hmm…

And you're banking? It's not working, for me at least.
