    Default New to forum saying hello!

    Hey guys! I am a SQL Analyst/Devoloper and have minor experience with C#. Haven't played RuneScape in a very long time but figured I would get back into it and try to hone my programming skills. Have already started on a first script so once that's out if I could get feedback that would be awesome!

    Outside of that I hunt, fish (bass tournaments) and do some investing on the side. Also, huge Final Fantasy nerd if that wasn't obvious. I have written a handful of snippets for autonomy Final Fantasy and other games through emulators so I'm not completely new here.

    Thanks!

    I do have a couple of questions:

    1. Rules state no gravedigging. Now if I'm looking at a tutorial that hasn't been posted on and the question is relevant to the tutorial is that still considered grave digging? Should I just create a thread instead asking in the help section?

    2. I got a profile picture but it doesn't show up next to my posts. Is there somewhere else to set this?

    3. Is there a "recommended" tutorial/guide for (I think) SRL writing in OSRS. The list of guides under there are quite numerous. Edit: I see there are other includes like AeroLib and one other but I think it'd be safer to stick with the basics for now so not really interested in jumping into those yet.

    1. If your reply is on-topic, especially in the context of educational threads like tutorials, feel free to bump it with a question. Even if the tutorial is old, someone will see that you're trying and should be able to point you in the right direction. Of course if you're inclined to create a new thread that is fine too, you might even get more replies that way.

    2. I believe you have to donate or rank up before you can set an avatar that will appear next to your posts. Profile pictures and avatars are seperate.

    3. SRL is for OSRS, yes. AeroLib is an old, unmaintained include, using it is strongly discouraged. The recommended setup tutorial is here, and the scripting tutorial is here.

    Ok, so avoid AeroLib. What about Reflection? Sounds to me like it'd be easier to be detected.

    Reflection is workable as long as you have the ability to generate updated hooks. They do not currently get posted publicly very often. It's also not color so it is very different versus SRL. I would recommend color over reflection in any case.

    Since when is AeroLib old & unmaintaned? The last release seems pretty recent. Will there be no future releases? Are the functions now included in the SRL include?

    AL is considered unmaintained because Flight has not been seen since he made the last release. At this time it seems likely that there will be no future releases. See this post of mine for more details.

    SRL is feature-full and ready for use, though it does not contain direct equivalents to certain routines like FindObj or types like TMSObjects. It's slightly different, but no less capable than AeroLib.

    Thanks for clarifying, didn't know he's no longer active. I will look into your post.

    I just liked some functions of the include which made scripting life easier.

    I've been away from the forums for a while, and I got lucky to come across this post. Writing this out to thank you for providing the link to your other post explaining the AeroLib/SRL state of affairs. Cheers!
