old Scala scripts in windows

Post by Tom »

I just purchased Hollywood and installed the Malibu plugin. What do I have to do to run the old scripts? All I get is this for the output:

Loading plugin malibu.hwp...done
Opening script Tom.script...done
Compiling script...
Error in line 1 (Tom.script): Opening bracket expected!

All my scrips start out simalar to this:

V3.0

MOUSE off
FKEYS off
NUMKEYS off
JOYSTICK on
POINTER off
INTERACTIVE off

as long as malibu plugin is in plugins directory, holywood cli command would start scala script and interpret it

download https://aminet.net/misc/misc/ALEM_0017.lha , i tested and works just use "hollywood_console.exe scalascript.script"

Yes, I think you have to run your Scala scripts from a console, not from the Hollywood IDE. The Hollywood IDE can only handle real Hollywood scripts so for Scala scripts you need to use the console. Then it should work.

Code: Select all

- Fix [Windows]: Scala scripts can also be started from the Windows IDE now
