I know this is old, but did anyone EVER answer your question.  I'm having the same trouble.  I downloaded the Bozo character from the plugins section, and I can't get him to appear either.  I noticed no one replied to your message and this was from back in November.

No, nobody replied as far as I know.

Programming using the Ultra Hal Brain Editor / help with user defined characters for Hal

« on: November 26, 2003, 02:41:22 pm »

Hello,

I am currently hacking around with defining a user-defined character for Hal 4.5. I haven't got the commercial version so I don't have the benefit of any source code samples.

I have done the following:

- created preview and start images
- created ocx file with all the required properties and methods
  according to the Zabaware online help
- left empty code shells for the methods and properties because I
  don't know what to do here
- self-registered ocx file
- created UHP face file
- placed all files in the appropriate directories
- changed the general options for hal to use my character

Hal starts up ok and displays my start image. As well it displayed my preview image while choosing my character but my character itself does not display when I converse with Hal?

What do I need to do next?

When I have something working, I will post this sample for people to use as a template...

Thanks in advance.
