Any suggestions?

The update this morning broke some functions in SRL. They've since been fixed so once you SRL updates everything should work fine.

Have you tried restarting Simba and trying again?

Every time I go to download the Simba installer, I go to open it and it says that the file has moved, despite searching for it, I can't find it. I've downloaded it multiple times in various locations, no matter what I do, it hides. Can anyone help me find it/stop it from hiding?
Thanks,

I'm not sure what's going on, but you can right click in any Windows folder, go to properties and check off the "Hidden" box to show any files that may be hidden. I believe it's Ctrl + H in Linux.

When I run this:

Code:

program Untitled; {$DEFINE SMART} {$I SRL/SRL.scar} {$I Reflection/Reflection.simba} begin SetupSRL; SetupReflectionEx(False); end.

I get this error:

Code:

SMART Initialized. Loaded: Server 74, Members: False, Signed: True, Super Detail: False. Error: Exception: Access violation at line 94 The following DTMs were not freed: [SRL - Lamp bitmap, 1] The following bitmaps were not freed: [SRL - Mod bitmap, SRL - Admin bitmap]

It highlights this in orange:

Code:

Result := (CountColor(0, MSCx - 20, MSCy - 20, MSCx + 20, MSCy + 20) < 20);

I've checked my include folders, reflection and SRL are both there...

Compiles fine for me. :confused:

I'm not sure why this would make a difference (I don't understand why you're getting that error or why anyone is getting these weird compiling errors), but have you tried editing the permissions of your Simba folder? You right click > Properties > Security > Edit, then set all the options to Allow for your user.

Bet they are running Windows. Try Running Simba as an Administrator. See if that helps you any.

That's how you set permission in Windows, but yeah running as admin may help.

64 bit OS

Hi, I just have some information for people running 64 bit systems. When installing, if you have windows 7 premium or ultimate, you will have to install it into the the folder program files(x86), you will also have to run simba as an administrator this way. Also if you don't have 7 there is an emulator for 32bit WOW64, I have never used it however it may work as well.

for added info when 64 bit is the problem the symptoms are simba will crash when you run a script, but only when you click on it. so in other words if you run a script it will work fine until you click on simba itself then windows will say it has stopped responding.

Mines installed in C:/ (same folder as my Program Files(x86) and it works find. I've never had to "Run as administrator" but I'm the only user on my computer.

I've never had this issue. As far as I know it was the MSI form that was causing Simba to crash when clicked (this has since been fixed). Unless it happens with scripts other than MSI as well?

:duh:
My bad, I had the problem so I searched the forums and found a few threads that had the same problem with 64 bit systems. None of them had an answer though so I thought that was the problem.
But since its fixed it doesn't matter :redface:

Well I don't know for sure if it's been fixed, but no one has said otherwise so I'm just assuming (I personally never encountered the error).

E: Upated the WINE install command.

E: Updated with a link to Silent SPY's portable version.

Very useful guide. You might want to add how to give yourself permissions to run the .exe file on Linux.

Wizzup?

No! You don't want to make the .exe +x, as WINE simply does not require that. Making it executable should not matter. :)

Does it do any harm if they do it anyway?

Do you have Srl and reflection includes? Because you need them to run your script.

Hey, I'm stuck at the part which I run the script. I noticed my SRL Isn't letting me enable security.sex, any suggestion? I tried turning off firewall but didn't work.

Thanks 8)

Security.sex is temp broke at the moment for the new versions of SIMBA.

New simba version... Maybe it would be good to lay off a static link and instead link to something like this: http://wizzup.org/simba/#download

or http://simba.villavu.com/bin/Release...aInstaller.exe

Just to share..

I was having some problems with 6u27, and it turns out it's a problem with Vista (and 7 as well, apparently) because of a function the installer uses for something. Changing the windows version to xp seemed to fix for me.

I would. I don't know what all was changed, but I'm sure it's about performance, security, etc.. Nothing that will mess anything up.

And there's no reason not to use it. :) Just make sure, if you're having problems, to use Windows XP as the Windows version. Should work in that case (and I may have been using an older version of Wine.. This can't be an issue that Wine just overlooks, as it's something that Vista and 7 use).
