Ultra Hal Assistant File Sharing Area / Re: GRETTA PLUGINS
« on: September 17, 2010, 08:10:02 am »
Using almost any of these cause my bot to crash on Windows 7 64. I am using the regular skin with the computer screen character. When asking the bot to please research this, it pops up a debugger window and gives me some error about the bot crashing on line blah blah. Most of the other plugins work fine except these.

I am having a problem with all of the plugins that I have tested in this post. HAL is locking up and crashing on a Windows 7 X64 box. No error, just a debugger window popping up.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Error 62

Calhoone,  in your Hal directory will be a file called HalScript.dbg.  Open this file in Notepad and go down to line 14,  if you are unable to make heads or tails of that then forward that to my email and I will look at it for you and see if I can find out what is causing the issue.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / wishes for the next version of hal
« on: November 13, 2007, 02:46:15 pm »
I use Hal in two different locations, on my work laptop and my home computer. One issue that I have is that I have taught my home Hal several things that my work Hal does not know. I would like some way of syncronizing the two brains if possible so that the two locations would mirror. While I can do this on the fly if needed, if I spend the night at my GF's house than I do not have access to this. When the brain launches it connects to X and see's if there was an update. If so it downloads the updated tables and imports them appropriately. Using a system such as the Google drive for the storage location would make it truely portable. Maybe enabling a type of FTP service transfer specifically for Hal to communicate with another version.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Spell check for Hal - Excellent program found
« on: November 13, 2007, 07:45:59 am »
I resolved the issue on my laptop, anyone receiving a 429 error code when trying to use this script please "repair" office by going to the add remove programs, choosing office, click change, then choose repair. This will fix all pertinent registry entries and allow the plugin to work perfect!

Ultra Hal 7.0 / WEATHER & NEWS
« on: November 13, 2007, 07:44:07 am »
You can use notepad to open the files; however, I find that confusing at times because of the word wrap and no definitive lines. I use winvi32 for all my "notepad" style editting. http://www.winvi.de/en/

Once open look for and change the following code to match the specific news site you would like to change it to. This should be done *before* you add the plugin. After it has been installed you will need to edit the vrWeb table under the miscData section which can only be seen when you switch to advanced brain editing mode.


      HalBrain.AddToTable "vrWeb", "PatternMatch", "*Hal Help*", "welcome.html"
      HalBrain.AddToTable "vrWeb", "PatternMatch", "*local weather*", "http://uk.weather.com/weather/local/ITXX0067"
      HalBrain.AddToTable "vrWeb", "PatternMatch", "*local news*", "http://www.nytimes.com/"
      HalBrain.AddToTable "vrWeb", "PatternMatch", "*yahoo mail*", "http://my.yahoo.com/"
      HalBrain.AddToTable "vrWeb", "PatternMatch", "*zabaware forum*", "http://www.zabaware.com/forum/"
      HalBrain.AddToTable "vrWeb", "PatternMatch", "*virtual humans forum*", "http://www.vrconsulting.it/vhf/"

When you first setup the file it should give you an option to specify which Weather site you want to use and your Zip code.

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Email and v6.1 questions
« on: November 12, 2007, 03:57:49 pm »
I have partially corrected the mistake in this file and it is now partially working as designated. It will create the tables and then add the first email to the tables; however, each subsequent add fails for the time being. I added the following code to the corresponding sections of the file for those that would like to update this. I will upload the completed fix when I resolvve it fully.


If HalBrain.CheckTableExistence("EmailBook") = False Then
(newcode)vrReadOnlyMode = HalBrain.ReadOnlyMode
(newcode)HalBrain.ReadOnlyMode = False
HalBrain.CreateTable "EmailBook", "TopicSearch", "miscData"

Ultra Hal 7.0 / Email and v6.1 questions
« on: November 12, 2007, 02:56:41 pm »
I think I have found the problem and I am working on correcting the issue. One of the issues is the AI Address Book plugin is not creating the specific tables as needed. I am having to manually enter the rest of the tables. Hopefully I will have this fixed later tonight unless Zabaware can correct the problem before then.

I can verify that the plugin is at least working by typing "soandso's email is me@me.com" Hal respond's by saying "I have learned soandso's email address.  If you ask me to email this person, I will automatically start your favorite email program and write in the address for you. " However, when choosing to say email soandso Hal just respond's with some canned email comment.

Ah,  my apologies, I just went and looked and found out I have a plugin for that, vrWeb, I will attach it here. I found it at the following site http://www.vrconsulting.it/vhf/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=39 along with several others. The MP3 plugin is a really nice touch.

Ultra Hal Assistant File Sharing Area / loneliness 2.3 plugin
« on: November 11, 2007, 10:39:25 pm »
I have found that if you uninstall and reinstall Hal the lonliness plugin will start working. Although it seems that my laptop causes issues with the plugin and it causes Hal to generate a error messge everytime it tries to send a message. This works perfectly on my desktop however. (memory allocation issues seem to be the main culprit behind my laptop woes, I have had games that generated the exact same mem codes for each specific item in the game.)

Ultra Hal Assistant File Sharing Area / Netflix plugin
« on: November 11, 2007, 10:36:50 pm »
I found a netflix plugin on the net and made some additional modifications to it.  This is not my work, simply updated by me. Edit the UHP file, add the specific RSS feeds for the 5 different categories. New movies (shipped), my recommendations, my queue, movies at home, and my activity.
