Well...

[dragondude]

OK, I hope this doesn't make me sound like a total idiot, but remember, I'm new and learning. So, heres my problem: In game I can get Lunar to load, this is good, but when it comes to running a script it always tells me the script was unable to load... I double checked my spelling of the files name and i just cant seem to get it to work. I am just trying to run something simple such as the Goblins.lua script but I'm having a lot of trouble. Any help would be appreciated.

Also, i have a couple more questions.


Where do you actually sit down and write out a script? in the command prompt thing?

One last thing, I'd just like to let you all know I'll be the one asking for help every other day. (lmao)

Thanks and, I'll talk to you as soon as I am done trying to get a script to run!


(>< i just saw the questions thread! sorry! i can delete this if you want!)

What command are you using to load a script?

[dragondude]

after the $ in the windower console i typed .Lunar load Goblins.lua but i figured out that i had stuff saved in the wrong places. But I've ran a couple now and they worked well, the PlayerStats.lua crashed FFXI but thats it...

And i just downloaded X-drops AggroChecker.lua can ya tell me where to save everything for that? I can't get it to work. Thanks Tiny! (talked to u in game and u told me to be quiet rofl)

[TinyTerror]

Yeah, I really don't like to talk about any of this in game. No need to give the GM's anything to stick on me. And yeah, playerstats crashes. Improved code is comming in the next version.

[dragondude]

Pretty cool. I'm really looking forward to learning how to do this stuff, I've just downloaded AutoIT, tryin to learn a little from that, its confusing, lol.

[dragondude]

O, wow, i just got the aggro check to work. My computer restarted... weird...

[TinyTerror]

Your computer restarted? Thats nasty.

[dragondude]

on the aggro check the icons dont show, just white squares... what did i do wrong?

[TinyTerror]

Its the image loading problem. You didn't do anything wrong. I need to fix the buggy code.

[dragondude]

Oh, alrighty... Anything anywhere that will teach me the basic format for writing scripts, Tiny?

[TinyTerror]

I would say the Lua book. Start reading from the beginning.

[X-Drop]

Here is a very slick script editor thats been color coded by Jubei,

Script Editor for Lunar


If your looking for step by step instructions for designing scripts, I am certain you won't find them. Instead, just whip out the editor and start playing around with the syntax. Use the link Tiny Terror provided and just go at it. Good luck^^

Oh and btw, I have no clue why your PC rebooted... lol, that's crazy.

[dragondude]

Lol, thank you very much. When i got back on somethin' said it recovered from a serious error caused by my graphics chip... hmmm...

[TinyTerror]

I've had that happen before.

[sdphantom]

Ya, it's just a GFX driver crash... it happens once in a while with various games.
