5 stars for you!

Nice man...I understand a lot more now

Absolutely brilliant beginners tut, got me started and i can now begin to understand some of the intermediate stuff.

Wow, there is alot of work put into this thread for sure.

Hey great tut. The only error i saw was you said that "Ctrl+P" was the color picker under the "How to use" section when its "Ctrl+Alt+P". The same for Run and Pause. I know that most people know that but i just wanted to make sure that newer people would know too. Other than that good job on the tutorial :)

Thanks. I'll fix it ASAP.

Quite the awesome tutorial. It's been helping me alot with SCAR, Good job.

:) Well done, the thing i liked the best was that I understand scripting that much more; it's cool how much you can learn from something as short as the information given in the reading. Thx. I believe you should cast a vote just to see what the other readers think of your TUT; as they say.

One thing; do you have any other TUT's that I could read?;)

This guide is amazing, you explain everything so nicely. Great job!

thank you for the help as i am currently making my first script atm so this should make it alot easier

Thanks mate! this tut really helped me :-)

very very nice guide, helped me massively, thank you very much mate

Thanks so Much for this tutorial you've helped me make my first script! check it out, theres a link in my sig.

wow,a very thorough tutorial. You made it very simple to understand.

I'm still a bit fuzzed on color finding,but I'm sure I'll get it soon.

Great work,appreciate it!;)

Hi I have this problem where I get an image, and i save it as a bitmap, then I go to Tools > Bitmap to String. Then I open my image and then press okay, I get this code,

Code:

But then when I put this back into "String to picture" I get an error saying "Invalid encrypted String", someone help please! :)
Edit: I am using the latest version of scar.


I tried another bitmap, and I got the same result:

Code:

  mage := BitmapFromString(32, 30, 'beNrtlllPU1EURrk/wQHa4rtR' +

Edit #2:
Okay, I downloaded SCAR 2.03, and I did the exact same thing and this time it worked. So either the latest SCAR has a bug in this "Picture to String" or you have to use it in a different way?

I've only read some of this, but it's helping me a LOT, well done for writing this up.

great tut, read it all @ once.. lets see what kind of scripts i can make then =D

Dooooooooood you are like my god. I feel slightly smarter after reading this well organized and neat tutorial. Please continue making them plz....

long , but very explicit i had to re-read a little but its a very well done guide, thanks!

To those who are asking about my other tutorials, here are a few of them:

Thanks for all the comments.

One question:

Quote:

---

Greeting: String;

---

You said that for commands that will turn bold, we shouldn't capitalize.
Does it not apply to this?

Well, we used it for a specific reason here. We defined the word "Greeting" as a string. That means that we can now store strings (text) in "Greeting".

saystuff: String; would be the same thing. We are just defining something as a string.

If I used it in something like:

SCAR Code:

procedure String;
begin
end;

it would be wrong and your script wouldn't compile (You would get an error).

The thing about capitalization doesn't matter. I am not even sure why I said that we should not capitalize it.

Greeting: String;
and
Greeting: string;

Both mean the same thing.

Very amazing tutorial i liked this out of the others pretty simple to use and understand

Thanks it was very helpful except for the includes part which was confusing and very necessary because of all the Mouse stuff so I couldn't really try that out myself yet.

Thanks VERY much!

This brings back memories... I started out by reading this brilliant and 100% covering guide and from there everything went up... Today I'm SRL Member and I make scripts that can run for hours and hours :p :D

Everybody should be encouraged to read this and begin scripting.

Thanks, WhoCares357!

thx alot this is a great help for people wanting to learn

Working on a Script myself this Tutorial is extremely Helpful.
Thanks!!!

I just sat here and read it all, and it has given me somewhere to start on this Scar buisness lol, no for me to go do some trialing of my own :P

nice 1

that was a very good tutorial. I understood everything except i did the bitmap thing properly but it would never find the bitmap(i even used FindBitmapIn--and inserted the runescape box size) i made it so it would write in the debug box if it found or didnt but it never did and never clicked on it???????? plz help but thx for the tut helped me with a lot of things :)
