you prolly have misconfigured the script with a directory name instead of a file name

cbruscato · Post by **cbruscato** » Sat Jul 16, 2005 4:22 pm

Config was:

# Path to the directory of egg-fu script and related files
path : ~/eggdrop/egg-fu/

# Path to birth certificate (can be relative)
path,bc : ~/eggdrop/egg-fu/

Config now is:

# Path to the directory of egg-fu script and related files
path : ~/eggdrop/egg-fu/

# Path to birth certificate (can be relative)
path,bc : ~/eggdrop/egg-fu/bc.txt

trying...

i doubt your bot was running in the home directory, which would rather be something like c:\Cygwin\home\cbruscato\ than c:\Program Files\ ^-^.

Also for future reference whilst people are searching for answers regarding windrop path's.

If you have installed your windrop into 'program files' whilst setting paths up for scripts use 'c:\progra~1\windropdir\' rather tha 'c:\program files\windropdir\'

The reason being that windrop does not like path names with spaces within it and windows will corectly find the 'program files' directory from 'progra~1'.

The easiest solution is to run Windrop from the root folder (C:\Windrop). Considering the necessary cygwin/tcl application extensions sit in the same folder after compilation or downloading the pre-packaged version, the windrop folder can go anywhere you want it.

I've used this script like 2 years ago and still sometime load it in, works fine for me.

One of the best AI scripts I've ever seen out there which don't annoy people alot.
