That's a link to blazeregulator.net 1.5. It's what allot of bots are based on because it includes the source code. Take a look at it and see if any of it makes sense to you. It's the first bot for renegade (AFAIK) that was open source and as such is one of simplest. I believe it evolved into todays current brenbot.

Personally, I think a finished bot written in C++ as a plug-in would be nice.

VS 2005 should work. (It should also be noted that C# and C++ aren't programs, but programming languages, for the record, I assume this is in C++)

Renguard is a wonderful initiative

If he's writing it as a plug-in for SSGM then VisualStudio will open it for him, but he will need to write it in C++.
If he's trying to modify BR.NET then that will also open in VisualStudio, but I believe it's written in VB.

If it was me, I would go for the plug-in option. It would be better performance wise (not reading log files, too much I/O is a real CPU hitter), and you'll find more support for C++ and writing SSGM plug-in's on this forum.

However, it seems clear that you're a beginner. I would not aim so high for a first project.

Those two links can Smile

But I guess you want the easy way out. Download SSGM2.0.2 from somewhere, there is example plugin source code there. You can strip out the example stuff and use that as a base for one.

I would download SSGM2.02 like raven suggested and have a gander at the plug-in example source code. Some links below to help you...

SSGM 2.02 which contains the plug-in example: http://black-cell.net/downloads/index.php?act=view&id=30

Plug-in's that have been released on Black-cell: http://black-cell.net/downloads/index.php?act=category&id=7

Plug-in's that I have released: http://spencerelliott.co.uk/downloads.html

I wish you the best of luck. However, I still urge you to consider a smaller task first. You're aiming very high.

What he said. If you have to be shown even the smallest stuff, you may want to consider trying simple things first. Starting on something like a bot will require you to have full understanding of SSGM (since you're doing it in a plugin) and some windows API stuff like threading or winsock.

How much experience do you have in doing this kind of stuff?

If you dont even know some basics this definately isnt a good idea to start on.
If i where you i would take something easier first and then make a bot. Thumbs Up

Maybe start with a basic script or something if you want to start with renegade coding?


PS. This is not to demotivate you or anything and you may ignore all i said Razz

PSPS. Did you ever program in another language???

Ah k Razz

Well if you wrote VB and you do want to start a project like this (with no knowledge on C++, winsock etc) i would suggest building in on of BR.NET

Maybe it might be an idea to learn VB.net first it makes things easier when translating stuff from one language to another.
