The Renhelp.net website has a link in it's "Getting Started" section to "Custom Scripts by JonWil". What is that exactly?

Basically scripts control all events in Renegade, but you need to gain an understanding of C++ to make them.

Umm, just wondering, I've never had the chance to come across anything that explain me the scripts. Any chance you could link me to a webpage?

(Maybe RenHelp as something for this, but I don't really understand what "the script" is all about).

Actually, I'm pretty fine with LevelEdit itself, I was just wondering what the script file was adding to Renegade, and I found out myself.

Thanks for the help anyway.

3** things wrong with your situation cpjok:

1. You can't open a *.dll file to editing. You need to edit the source.

2. You're using a version of VC++ that is highly discouraged from being used to edit Scripts.dll. Reason: Compiler changes that make Scripts.dll un-buildable.... :/ You need VC++ 2005 to re-compile Scripts.dll.

EDIT: (noticed a 3rd thing wrong...)

3. Thirdly...You're trying to use VISUAL BASIC 2008 to edit Scripts.dll <_< Scripts.dll is not coded in VB.NET :/ (not yet at least -hehe-)

VC2008 can build scripts.dll no problem, there's just a slight bugfix that needs to be done in engine_common.cpp.

Find: 
#if (_MSC_VER == 1400)
Replace with (2 occurrences): 
#if (_MSC_VER >= 1400)
