Lol, no popcorn but we have an abundance of SPAM.  *bah dum bum*

Anyhow, thanks for coming.  Since you were VIP before, you have access to the Elite section.  There's some info in there.

Questing / ScriptUO Heartwood Quester v1.16 Q/A
« on: June 10, 2008, 05:51:52 PM »
Please read the Site Rules to become familiar with the download requirements of this script

And here's the Q/A:
Q:
My beetle keeps lagging out, what's up with that?
A:
Check to be sure you don't have "run always" selected in the client. Also, keep your hands off the mouse and avoid using the computer when the script is railing into and out of Heartwood.
---------------------
Q:
The quest I'm doing is never automatically selected; it just keeps looping.
A:
Be sure you are playing in 32bit video mode and that you are NOT playing in full-screen mode.
Also, try making sure your mouse is on the screen and physically "click" the grey area of the quest selection gump. (Thanks to Ultima for that tidbit)
Also, you must be playing in WINDOWED mode.  If you are playing in FULLSCREEN mode, this probably won't work.
---------------------
Q:
Why does this script take so long to select the quest even after it's on the screen?  Also seems to be slow when it's selecting the "Toggle quest item"
A:
Chances are real good that you are:
  • 1) Playing on an older computer
  • 2) Have a system with lots of programs running
  • 3) Trying to run on a laptop - be sure you are using your laptop plugged in and not running on batteries.  Also be sure that you are running in 100% utilization mode.  Most laptops throttle-back the CPU frequency.  Override this at your own risk since you can melt your laptop!
---------------------
Q:
How can I modify this script to do other quests in Heartwood?
A:
It's pretty easy. In the setup section, you need to change the appropriate item types, resource types, and tool types. Also, you need to let the OCR know that you want to stop at a particular quest by changing the "magic number" Here's a few numbers to get you started:

Code: [Select]
set %QUEST_Ingenious_Archery_Part_I 10013928
set %QUEST_Ingenious_Archery_Part_II 11388140
set %QUEST_Ingenious_Archery_Part_III 12210240
set %QUEST_Lethal_Darts 5362724

It's pretty simple to have the quester let you know what these magic numbers are, but I'll let you figure it out.
---------------------
Q:
This quester does not run on my particular freeshard.
A:
Nope, probably not.  We do not officially support anything but OSI.  If you are willing to take some active debugging to help us figure out what might be the problem, then you might receive some help.  However, if you say "this script doesn't work on my shard, come fix it"... well, you won't get much help.
---------------------
Q:
What's so special about Freeshards and why the quester won't run?
A:
Freeshards have no "official" release for Heartwood or any other content related to the Mondain's Legacy publish.  RunUO in particular.
---------------------
Q:
How do I make the script use another wood other than normal?
A:
Locate the line:

Code: [Select]
set %reshue 1 ; 1-wood, 2-oak, 3-ash, 4-yew, 5-hearwood, 6-bloodwood, 7-frostwood

located in either your fletching setup or your carpentry setup and change the value of %reshue accordingly.
---------------------
Q:
Why isn't anyone answering my questions?
A:
We opened up the ability to download the script, however we are going to be selective about who gets their questions answered.  For those people that have participated in the site, we will be very helpful.  If you have only posted your introductory posting, followed by pleas for help, you will not receive much response.

I played a thief/mage I would still the main regs and let the gankage ensue. I would also talk people into coming to fel brit bank to make trades and steal them blind there also. So many memories..

You know it's been a long time since I've done anything stealing related.  Is it totally nerfed, or is there still some fun to be had?

9244
Oh man, I loved stealing in UO at one point. Actually, that's one kind of scamming I didn't mind too much because people were using the mechanics of the game to do it.  I remember on time when I was on Napa and there was a pair of guys taking interviews with a "camera" and "microphone" They would ask you to step closer to the microphone while the hidden 3rd person would steal you blind while you'd be "interviewed" Classic.

9245
Much appreciated, sol.  You can pretty much talk about anything UO-related here.  I just really hate scammers.  It's a peeve.  ;)

9246
really you should take that to winuo.org.  I'm not really a big bug person so I'm trying to concentrate on the whole scripting thing.  But no worries for talking about it.  Just don't scam!  :p

Off Topic / Re: I don't know if i dare ask...
« on: June 10, 2008, 03:41:31 PM »
I understand that he wanted to get away from UO... but maybe he just figured it wasn't worth paying for VB when he himself no longer played or wanted to support anything UO.  It just sucked because i wasn't able to pull some of my projects off of there where i had some people's comments that i was in the middle of processing into my scripts.

Yes, if you were a contributor over there, chances are you did loose some information.  I'd love to be able to retrieve that for you guys, but I lost my admin card.  ;)

p.s. I did check the google caches, and they are pretty bare since we implemented more heightened access restrictions.  So we can't use that.

Well, really coders was on life support for a while since Cerveza and I took it over.  He was really completely done with UO, and perhaps this was just the last bit of it he needed to get rid of.  I can't say I agree with his methods, however.  It impacted a lot of good people as well as leechers.  I'm sure there's many angry people out there who enjoyed the community and now mourn its loss.

Hopefully between this site and Winuo.org, we can bring back some of that community without it being a competition or a personal vendetta. I'm on freddy's site and he's on mine.

I'm here just because I love to script and I like chatting with other people who love to script.  I don't have any other agenda aside from my little "program"  ;)

Ya, I chatted with him via ICQ a bit ago.  Just wouldn't be the same without him; at least he still plays the game.  I just script it full-time.

Scripting Tutorials / Evolution of a user interface
« on: June 10, 2008, 01:55:49 PM »
Just some silly screen shots as I was developing the user interface for the CLAw looter.  I guess from this is you can see that as a script evolves, it's ok to allow for an evolution of the user interface.

Original nonfunctional concept:


First beta that was functional:


After looting a bit:


Moving things around a bit:


Starting to take the final form, but no tabs yet:


Ah, tabs finally!


Tabs in both panes, and zoom button.  FULL content added.


Nearly the final product, ship it!

Requirements:
Please check these off before you request help on the forum

  • [  ] - You are running on OSI This script most likely will not work on your Freeshard
  • [  ] - Tamed and bonded beetle (bonded not really required, but nice when beetle dies)
  • [  ] - Raw Ribs if you would like your beetle fed at the beginning of script execution.
  • [  ] - Runebook with at least 3 runes marked. (Home secure, heartwood, logout) Does not support bank secure!!
  • [  ] - Lootbag in your main pack.  Please make sure this is a different container (big bag) than the bags dropped by the quest reward bag.  You run the risk of trashing your loot otherwise.
  • [  ] - Loot bag in your home secure MAIN LEVEL (when working from home secure)
  • [  ] - Runebook in your main pack
  • [  ] - All resources (boards, ingots, tinkering tools, carpentry tools) placed in the main level of your secure container and not in a bag.
  • [  ] - Tinkering skill sufficent to make tinker tools and crafting tools
  • [  ] - No tinkering?, then enough tinker tools and crafting tools in your home secure (tinker tools and joining planes, lots...)
  • [  ] - KEEP UO screen uncovered. This is so the OCR can see the quest (you can still use powersaver, but do NOT use a screensaver, or coverup the UO window)
  • [  ] - Rail engine requires that you not move the mouse during rail runs. Otherwise this will mess up your movement while riding a loaded beetle. Dedicate your computer to running this script by either just leaving it alone or running the UO session in a VM (virtual machine instance)
  • [  ] - 32-bit video card setup, will not function at 16-bits or 8-bits.
  • [  ] - Make sure you have placed all files (quester, looter, rail engine, rails, evaluator) in the same directory as your EasyUO executable. <-- Important!!
  • [  ] - Do not run this quester in full screen mode or the OCR functions will not work properly.
  • [  ] - Do not run UO Assist or Razor with this script!!
  • [  ] - Be sure to have your rune marked SOUTH a few steps of the gate, otherwise you may accidentally enter the portal before the rail engine is ready. (thanks marina)
  • [  ] - Be sure you remember to download the rail engine from the link supplied below
  • [  ] - Be sure you do not have Always Run selected.  You will need to walk with a loaded beetle.

A big thanks to Bad_Maniac and Machine for some of their work included in this script.

Please post your comments/questions HERE.  Please do not PM me

Please note that you will also have to download the Rail Engine with the rest of the files attached.

One post required to download scripts here at ScriptUO!

no it is a URL thing.  Whether my proxy will process the IP Address correctly.  It is weird how on government computers you can't reach certain IP addresses..and if anything is routed through Ports it will also do the same.

Rofl!  Will I'm surprised you can reach Hypermart then.  It's slow, lame, but I've been here for years.

Script Snippets / TrailMyx's Emailing routines
« on: June 10, 2008, 11:55:52 AM »
Sometimes it's really nice to email yourself status from a script that's busy doing something nefarious.  For that I use the following tool:

http://www.daveswebsite.com/software/sendmail/

You have to set up an XML file that contains the necessary information to send mail through your particular email server.  Typically, if you use your ISP email address, this seems to work well.  You're on your own if you want to use anything else.  So create an XML file:

Edit: Annoying thing about having XML embedded into the code container below; doesn't work!  So, change the "{" to "<"

Code: [Select]
{Sendmail>
    {Server host="smtp.XXXX.YYYY.net" port="25" username="" password=""/>   
    {Message>
        {Sender email="myemail@server.net" name="EasyUO Daemon"/>
        {Recipient email="mycellphone@att.com" name="YurName"/>
      {Subject>Death Alert{/Subject>
        {Body filename="z:\scripts\message.txt"/>
    {/Message>
{/Sendmail>

The things you need to edit are:
Server host="smtp.XXXX.YYYY.net"
Sender email="myemail@server.net"
Recipient email="mycellphone@att.com"
Body filename="z:\scripts\message.txt"

Make sure you edit this above information in the XML file to be compatible with your email/recipient/body.

This routine creates a message called "message.txt" that contains whatever mesage you want to send.  Be sure that the filename matches the one that your above XML code is expecting.

Code: easyuo
  1. sub SendDeathMail
  2.   set %messagefile z:\scripts\message.txt
  3.   execute cmd.exe /c echo > %messagefile
  4.   execute cmd.exe /c echo >> %messagefile %1
  5.   execute z:\scripts\sendmail.exe z:\scripts\deathmail.xml
  6. return

Finally, you can call this to issue the email from your code:

Code: easyuo
  1. set %text_string #CHARNAME, #spc , died
  2. gosub SendDeathMail NULL %text_string


Hope that's helpful!
