Programmer16,

Yes, I think the problem is that LUA no longer supports those functions, so thanks for the new code. But I think you've used variables instead of actual arguments. What do these variables represent, do you recon you could walk me through it?

lua_register(g_pState, FunctionName, FunctionPointer);// Exampleint sfSpeak(lua_State* pState){    // This returns the number of arguments that the user supplied.    lua_gettop(pState);    std::cout<<lua_tostring(pState, 1)<<": "<<lua_tostring(pState, 2)<<std::endl;    return 0;}lua_register(g_pState, "UserSpeak", sfSpeak);// The FunctionName argument is the function name that will be used// inside of the script./*Talking.lua-----------UserSpeak("Donny", "This is a user speaking.");UserSpeak("Silvo", "This is another user speaking.");*/// lua_dofile just a pointer to your virtual machine and a script filename.

If you're using a newer version of LUA then some of the names have changed and thus old tutorials are kind of rendered moot.

Here's an example I whipped up using the newest version:
*** Source Snippet Removed ***

Everything else is the say as in old the old tutorials (at least as far as I have seen.)

HTH!

#include <stdio.h>#include <stdlib.h>extern "C" {#include <lua.h>#include <lualib.h>}lua_State *L;int main(int argc, char * const argv[]){   L = lua_open();   luaopen_base(L);   lua_dofile(L, "SimAI.lua");   lua_close(L);   return 0;}
