Ive heard good things about brisk so I checked it out.
But the tutorials dont run.
I have to edit the function calls first of all:

from

VM_Call_blox_DrawGameBlock

to

VM_Call_DrawGameBlock

then after I have edited all of the calls
I get this error

'Unable to convert from string to Int'

On this line:

hContext% = BVM_CreateContext("blox")

I have tried emailing the author and posting on his forums

He tends to be busy a lot.

'Unable to convert from string to Int'

The function definition has changed, check your documentation (it's now BVM_CreateContext:Int() - no parameters).

It's likely he changed other things without updating the tutorials. AFAIK he was doing a lot with the battle AI thing, he may have just forgot to test everything before he released 2.4 (which is what your using?).

I downloaded the latest demo to test.

Thanks for the help,

if not where would i find a brisk tutorial?

Hi Jeremy.
I have replied to your post on my site.
Sorry for the late reply. Plash is right, I am (especially these days) pretty busy but hope to have things get back to normal soon.

I keep getting a connection timed out error on the bvm sandbox, is it down?

I think the bvm sandbox has been down for a long while.
