I would like to eventuallly have my bot run both msn and aim. To start i would like to get to know aim modules etc.
Can someone give me a link to a tutorial or something outlining the basics of how net::aim works, and how to make screennames etc. (not an aol subscriber)
thanks! had a look at leviathan but i couldn't make anysense of it.
I wrote a simpler bot called CksBot-AIM, it's the most basic Net::OSCAR bot you'll find. It comes with an older Net::OSCAR in its local library though, so delete its "lib" folder and install a newer Net::OSCAR.

if you are going to use OSCAR I would suggest cer's cksbot, but if for some reason you wanna use net-aim you could check out RBot, though poorly written it will help you learn. Its the only net-aim bot I could get to work... (just make sure you remove the back doors!)
I wouldn't recommend Net::AIM at all. Use Net::Oscar. _________________ Check out Botworld! A dev resource for things bot.

2 problems left, don't like AOL software so is there an alternative windows AIM messenger. And how for the love of god, do i make a screen name? [right][snapback]46179[/snapback][/right]
Go to aim.com, click the "Download AIM" link, and on the next page click "New Users Click Here", it will have you register a screenname and then go to the downloads page--you don't have to download it, just go through the process to get a screenname.
And then you can use gAIM or Trillian. I'm not sure what gAIM's website is, but you can download it from download.com and Trillian's site is http://www.trillian.cc/ _________________ Current Site (2008) http://www.cuvou.com/

New problem.
I have PPMed and installed the new net-oscar.
however if i remove the current one (old, 1.1) from the lib directory so as to use the newer one, when connecting the bot says 'Could't Set Win32 blocking' and doesn't connect.

Any ideas? [right][snapback]46466[/snapback][/right]
Yeah, to fix that, go into the file that it's talking about (I think it's Net/OSCAR/Connection.pm but I may be wrong), search for "Win32 blocking" and it should be in an "or die" command. Change the "die" to "warn", and then try the bot again. _________________ Current Site (2008) http://www.cuvou.com/
