Yes, they're written in Squeak.

Cool! Does this mean that we could make a code in squeak and change the extension to .patch?

or leave it as a .cs, the patcher accepts them, too.

EDIT: Oh, nvm, my version does. If you want to, just add "#cs" next to "#patch" in the first method.

Rapidshare is bad unless you have a paid account, Mediafire is working fine for me though so I wonder why it isn't for you.

I think that it was the exclamation points. Do I just take out the exclamation points?

Weird, that didn't happen to me...

Edit:
continuing with my old question:

ScratchReallyROCKS wrote:

How are the patches encoded? Would you be able to make them in a normal text editor and change the extension to .patch?

Would we be able to make our own patches?

.CS files (What the .patch files are when they start out) are just C# (C-sharp) code files, which can be made in any text-editor, so if you know how to code the patch, then you should be able to.

I don't think it would be C# files.

People are going to put this into their mods no matter what you say you know...

After installing the patch installer and both patches, I tested out the delete patch by putting "(22)/(3)" (just random numbers I thought of) in the first blank of "pick random () to ()" block, with 10 in the other. When I right-clicked on it and clicked "delete", it gives me a debug window with the title "Message not understood: argMorphToReplace:" and this as its contents:

ScratchScriptsMorph(Object)>>error:
ScratchScriptsMorph(Object)>>doesNotUnderstand:
ReporterBlockMorph(CommandBlockMorph)>>deleteMe
ReporterBlockMorph(CommandBlockMorph)>>rightButtonMenu
ReporterBlockMorph(BlockMorph)>>mouseDown:
HandMorph>>handleMouseDown:
HandMorph>>handleEvent:
HandMorph>>processEvents
[] in PasteUpMorph>>doOneCycleNow
Array(SequenceableCollection)>>do:

And the "(22)/(3)" block is left there, and so is the pick random block, except now it looks like "pick random to (10)" (it's missing the first blank). Very weird.

Slash uses dropbox.

dropbox isn't a file hosting site, you need a password to access the contents and you also need to install it.

Actualy, not true, one sec, let me get the link... http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6273449/Panther%201.0.msi thats the link to the panther installer, its in the dropbox public folder, you should have read the file there.

Oh, yes, sorry, I accidentally made a coding error in the deletion of reporters; it was trying to replace the argument that it had taken the place of in its parent block (which doesn't exist). I will update the download in a few days. (or less)

How about making Jens' elements into a patch? I think it was Mathwhiz managed to export it as a change set file.

Yeah, I realized that.

Yes, I did copy the entire patch installer.

Did you click "file it in"?

Why is everyone saying it doesn't work?? Just follow nXIII's instructions in the beginning and you'll have it. It worked fine for me.

EDIT: and since no one has said this yet, on a Mac you copy by pressing Command+C, paste with Command+V, and select all with Command+A.

Thank you!

I'm not sure why it doesn't work for some people ... I might ask the Scratch Team if I can give out an image which has hosting enabled but has no changes except for the patcher.
