Does anyone know of a program that helps in the translation of pol scripts into c++?

? .src, .src is not c++. It is e-script and is a whole lot easier. Do you mean de-compiling pol? Note: Which is illeagel.

oh no not at all. im not looking to break any rules. to be honest im helping start up a server but the owner is set in his ways to use runuo and there are so many scripts ive seen availible that we were hoping to translate into C++ for the runuo scripts. if this is illegal just say so and ill drop it

Oh nononooooooo, I thought you meant de-compiling POL into its C++ source code. Hmmm, translating e-script into C++ is exuastive and unnessary. As far as I know you can not convert Runuo into POL e-script either. Though, rescripting your shard altogether is really easy with POL. For example, to make custom ores with pol you have to slightly modify 5 files or better in POL compared to 15-20 in RUNUO. Also, POL may very well end up supporting KR while Runuo said it will not.

Also, POLs scripts - .src - are not C++ they are nice friendly e-script. If you need help creating a shard I will be more than happy to help you learn POL, there a a few tutorials with alot more coming in the GUIDES side of the forum.

Happy POLing

ill talk to the owner again and mention this maybe it isnt to late to change.

First, RunUO uses C# primarily, not C++. They might look similar, but they aren't the same thing. Second, there is no program to 'convert' eScript to C#, C++, VB or anything else. It's not gonna happen. Even if you could somehow get the syntax of scripts converted to C#, RunUO's environment is totally different and your 'converted' scripts would be of little use anyway.

RunUO has a lot of scripts and such available for it too if you just look around. Or better yet, learn the language and write your own, whether it's RunUO or POL.
