You maybe specified a wrong path your Microsoft platform SDK library directory.

However, here is the file you need:

right, after hours of trying i edited the code and removed the function call MessageBox after this it worked.


now that i can get it to compile. how do i call the functions from my bot? the only way i think you can do it is to create a pre-compiled header and include it in my bot. is this how you would do it? if not please tell me how.

thanks cat998 for all the help on script-2.8

You cant use scripts.dll functions from an external bot.

BRenBot calls scripts.dll through the renegadeFDS using renrem afaik, it does not directly call them itself.

SSAOW adds extra commands to the fds which BR can call through renrem.

SSAOW doesn't add any commands to the FDS,

what you mean is bhs.dll.

SSAOW doesn't add any commands to the FDS,

what you mean is bhs.dll.


Which comes with scripts.dll and SSAOW.

how does brenbot know how many players there are in a server, and how does it know if a player even exists? there must be some library that it uses. i found that not many commands in the FDS console are usefull and do not retrun any values to my bot. how does brenbot get a player id? there must be a library that provides loads of suff that is perfect.

Brenbot has a native interface for Renrem, that means

it does not need any dll to communicate with the FDS (it does

it with a direct udp connection). You can get the player IDs

with player_info, or you send player_info to the FDS and read

the response from the logfile....

A better way would be RLmon (included in scripts 2.9), you can

read the console output with it (see bhs.txt).

RLmon? but thanks! i have been baffeled at this problem. so far i have only been able to get my bot to read from the user. i should be more interesting now.

i will have a look into RLmon. i will also see if i can create a UDP connection to FDS to see what happens.

Thanks for all the help.

BTW: did anyone try my bot to see what it is like?

i have looked at rlmon in bhs.txt and how to use it. but what i have noticed is that if i just recompile scripts.dll without editing. renegadefds doent include it at all. and you only have a small amount of commands. this is very anoying, i am using version 8.0 of microsoft visual c++ express edition. why wont it work? i have no errors when it compiles at all, not even warnings.

i hope someone can help.
