Hello OHRRPGCE community,
I want to this script, but an error occures and I don't know why. I am using the hasta-la-qb+ version of OHRRPGCE. Is there a difference in the way of scripting between the old and the newer versions?

Script:
include, plotscr.hsd
include, legendia.hsi

plotscript, box, begin
suspend box advance
show text box (102)
wait (70) # 70 ticks = approximately 4.5 seconds.
advance textbox #go on the the next textbox, if one has been linked in CUSTOM
wait (70)
show texbox (170) # display the next textbox if it is not linked
wait (70)
advance textbox #remove the last textbox
resume box advance
end


Error:
... parsing top-level
ERROR: in line 4 of C:\WINDOWS\DESKTOP\OHRDOS\SCRIPT.txt
plotscript, box, begin
Expected top-level declaration but found plotscript

Is somebody knowing, what I did wrong?

When I try to compile your script, I do not get the same error as you. I get:

Quote:
ERROR: in script box on line 10 in /home/james/src/ohr/wip/tmp/legendia.hss
show texbox (170) # display the next textbox if it is not linked
^
Unrecognised name showtexbox. It has not been defined as script, constant,
variable, or anything else


The error message you posted suggests to me that you might be using an old version of the OHRRPGCE, from back before the plotscript command had been added, and scripts required the now obsolete "define script" command.

This suspicion is reinforced by the fact that you are using a folder named "OHRDOS". Are you using the ancient DOS version of the OHRRPGCE? or are you using a current version?

Thank you a lot, Mr. Paige! Thanks to your hint with the "define script" command, my script is now running perfectly! And yes, it's true that I am using the DOS version (hasta-la-qb+). I found the DOS version on a DOS gaming site and it runs on Windows 98 very well.
At this point, I want to thank you for creating OHRRPGCE. Since many years, I dream of creating a RPG, but thank to your simple DOS program, I am going to make it true. Thank you very much, Mr. Paige!

Does the current version (Zenzizenzic) not work on Windows 98? I don't have a Windows 98 computer anymore, so I haven't tested in a long time. It seems like it should work.

Oh! That's quite stupid, that I didn't tested that before, because the newest version also works with Windows 98.
