Starting now, my Score Sender will have something SIMILAR to what some people want. It works for me, and I like it.

It now has a command-line parameter, which is "Start".

Running something like this in a RUN dialog will make the score sender start as if you opened it and pressed start yourself! (This is useful if you're going away, or possibly too lazy, or you like score sending early in the morning.)

But it wasn't made to be run from the Run dialog. It was made for an automater. The best one I know of, is Ka-Firetask, and it's pretty sweet.

Install it, check it out a lil, and whenever you want, add in the task to start it. How do you do this you ask? Simple.

• Click "New Task"!
• Give it a Title. Something easily recognizable, such as "Awesome Score Sender Feature Test!"
• I run it every day, but uh, choose the days of the week you'd want it to run, I suppose.
• It's best if you run it only at a specific time, really. I do it early in the neopets morning, at some point between 12 and 1 AM NST. I'm a jerk, get over it.
• In the Task frame, make sure "Action:" is "Open file" and under that, put in the path to the score sender EXE. Example: "C:\Users\sLAUGHTER\Desktop\ScoreSender.exe" without quotes.
• Under there, you'll see a textbox labeled "Params:". Type in "Start". The capitals don't matter, just the spelling really.

After that, press OK.

If you're going to be AUTOMATICALLY starting the score sender, I highly suggest having a reliable score list auto-load into it, as well as your account list, because it will not know, or assume your account or list without them. :I
Also, keeping on the re-logging in setting is a great idea, just in case.

I don't like having open two at once, running or not, so I also have a "Kill SSer" task. Here is the stuff for it.

Action: Open File
File: taskkill
Params: "/F /IM ScoreSender.exe" (No quotes!)

I run this like, RIGHT before my score sender opens using the task, so it never conflicts.

Discuss, and suggest other parameter possibilities for simpler future score sender automation tasks!
Or discuss relatively relevant stuff here about the program itself.

EDIT: i read all of this now ...when i was using the beta in the past it eventually said comdlg32 or whatever missing, so i downloaded it and put it in the same folder and it wouldnt work, but i will see what happens now...id like to check this out but like i said i havent got to use the SS in the last 2 months because i dont know how to get it to recognize the new OCX when i put it in the folder

Edited by talbs, 19 October 2010 - 07:24 PM.

[sLAUGHTER]

Put it in your System32 folder.

[talbs]

ah thanks for the tip trying this now...is this the only significant change, making this easier to use for lazy people


EDIT: after putting the ocx file there it still says missing or invalid...did i just download a bad file, or can something else be screwing this up

Edited by talbs, 19 October 2010 - 07:28 PM.

[sLAUGHTER]

Yep, besides the last update, I guess. That was only 2 days ago I think though. :I

Nobody tells me what to add. :I

Register it, like so.


Go to Run...
Type "cmd" in
Type in "regsvr32 MSCOMDLG32.ocx"

If it doesn't work, open command prompt through your accessories, and run as admin, and do the regsvr32 thing.

[Derriere]

Do you know how to fix this problem?
You've problem seen it around by now.. but just wanted to bring it to attention anyways lol.
I installed the new one just now, 401, but still getting the same problem. x__x

[sLAUGHTER]

Is your neopet language NOT in english? :I That's usually the case.

it says failed to load...make sure the binary is stored at the specified path or debug it to check for problems with the binary or dependent .DLL files

[sLAUGHTER]

Did you try doing it as admin?

[Derriere]

It's always been in english.
And I switched it to another language just to make sure, same thing happens.
And I was using it earlier that day worked great then I wanted to use it again and that happened. ;/
It wouldn't "log back in" afterwards.

[sLAUGHTER]

Hmm, any special priveleges your account has? Is it in portal mode if you have premium? Is it a child account? Iunno what it could possibly be D:

Have you tried other accounts?

[Derriere]

None of the above.
Yeah it does the same thing.

What I noticed though was instead of it usually saying Logging into Neopets.. [1/3]. right?
It's 1/2 instead, and I am not sure why If that's relevant to anything. Bypass 3/3 is on btw.

I reinstalled it like 5x also. =(

[masterlorddd]

I get the same problem when I load the score list. If I manually enter the scores in it works.

Yeah, they changed the login, so I changed my login. Hmm, this really is weird.

[Derriere]

Oh wow, this worked, but I guess the lists don't work anymore then.
I should've tried this out. I usually don't, ahh thanks. As long as I can use the program again! YAY

There's several ways to load one. Try autoloading it, or dragging and dropping it.


EDIT: I'll get on a fix for that when I can D:

Did you try doing it as admin?

yes i did it both ways you suggested, the odd thing is i never deleted any OCXs or anything, and it used to work, and then one day it quit working, and hasnt work since

That'd be awesome, as long as I know the program is still working fine.
I thought I wasn't going to be able to use this great program anymore lol. shit scared me ahha.

Are you using windows XP? Because my XP does this, My Vista works fine.

[Derriere]

Nope, I'm using vista, but i think it's set to XP for compatibility
so that it would run. But since it's upgraded, maybe i should switch it back to Vista?

[sLAUGHTER]

Compatibility differs on every computer really. Mix and match? :x

[Derriere]

Ahh I see. I was using jcr's guide to make it run smoothe.
It's a great program no doubt and I'm glad I tried it.

Hope people contribute to help make it better,
(The program's already great as it is)

[Ziz]

OMG, thank you
I've never dared to try an SSer before because they look really risky for me,
but this just looks great, I mean, If one got iced with this It would bee his/her fault for putting insane settings.
Good job Slaughter.

[Philly]

Hmm this program hasn't worked for me since I formatted my pc a long time ago. I forgot exactly why.. I should really try out the program again soon!

[sLAUGHTER]

Philly, just install the vb6 fixes: http://slaughter.hap...z.net/Fixes.zip

From there, you should be able to atleast bring up an error that's easily fixed.
