HEY!!!! Im a new dude.. :eek: :p

Btw.. Can we pause scripts? I mean, i know thats a hotkey for pausing; that is Ctrl+Alt+A.
But that won't work for me. Oh.. and the stop hotkey won't work too. (Ctrl+Alt+S) Is that something wrong with my "SCAR Divi 3.15b"? Or does everyone here cant pause/stop their scripts using hotkeys? :confused:

Pls post ur comments!:D :D

P.S : I just love this green dude >> :D

You can only use the hot keys with the first scar opened. So if you open a scar, open a second one, close the first. The hot keys don't work. So close the second scar and open a new one and the hot keys will work.

...Click the pause button?

you could give help and not spam.

And I never tried my pause button so I do not know. but as for the stop button, it will work for some scripts, but for others, I have to struggle for 10 minutes to try and open up scar while my mouse moves all over the place trying to auto.

Edit: thanks to myles I figured out my problem too :P

But how can he click the pause button if his mouse will not stop moving cause the script is playing?:P

@ Magix If your just testing to see if a script compiles, a better way than to hit start then stop would be compile..just a tip :)

Loaded all chars. (NPCChars, TradeChars, SmallChars, StatChars, UpChars)
12/11/2008: SCAR Divi 3.20 Beta 8 has been released in the R&D section
of the forums. (note that you need to register to view and download)
It's way more stable than Beta 7 and should be good for usage.

Ok.. it says SCAR Divi 3.20 Beta 8 is out.. So i need to download the SCAR Divi 3.20 Beta 8?
But whr can i find the download link?:stirthepot:

I use scar 3.15B still and I do just fine with it, you dont have to have the new beta version, I never used it though so I can't say whether it's good and stable or not, maybe someone who has tried it or still uses it can say how efficient it is in comparison to 3.15B.

haha mines similiar to yours jukka because mine are all close like that but I have my pause ctrl+alt+x, stop ctrl+alt+c and play ctrl+alt+z, my color picker is still default, and yes magix I can pause script with my hotkeys but mines not A just because I prefer to use X instead. I liek it better because I'm lazy and can pause a script with two fingers now instead of three, because I use my index finger for both alt and X haha.

the window has to be in focus:

I suggest using Alt + Tab, then quickly press Ctrl + Alt + A
