need help with pixel search

[DNnlee]

im trying to scan a certain region for a monster, ( for this game i play)

i know its going to appear within certain coordinates

if i do pixel scan, white means it isn't there, and anything but white means there's something there.

$coord = PixelSearch( 0, 0, 20, 300, 0xFFFFFF )

If Not @error Then

MsgBox(0, "X and Y are:", $coord[0] & "," & $coord[1])

EndIf

if i do this it will only tell me coords of white... i want to find coord of anything BUT white in a region... any ideas?

Right now your script says:

If there is No error finding the color white, then Msg this coordinate

Try looking into PixelChecksum (), it sounds like that is your best option.

See here:

#491281

Find anything NOT black:

$result = PixelSearch(884,199,1094,408,0xFFFFFF,254)
If NOT @ERROR Then
    ConsoleWrite("MATCH FOUND")
Else
    ConsoleWrite("NO MATCH FOUND")
EndIf

Find anything NOT white:

$result = PixelSearch(884,199,1094,408,0x000000,254)
If NOT @ERROR Then
    ConsoleWrite("MATCH FOUND")
Else
    ConsoleWrite("NO MATCH FOUND")
EndIf

the thing is... i want the pixelsearch to RETURN a COordinate to me.. once it find something not white, i will make it click it

PixelSearch(884,199,1094,408,0x000000,254)

then once it find the coord, Mouseclick ( "left", xxx,xxx)

so the point is , find the monster, and click it, the monster shape and size will vary, but always remain in same region.

edit: so... according to u, i should

$result = PixelSearch(884,199,1094,408,0x000000,254)
if not @ error then
mouseclick ("left" , $result[0], $result[1])
endif

like tat?

PixelSearch returns an array with the coordinates and my code uses PixelSearch() so it inherently does this task.

i used it, and it did a weird thing

$result = PixelSearch ( 196 , 262 , 290 , 331 , 0x000000 , 254 )
if not @error then
mouseclick ("left" , $result[0], $result[1])
endif

it searches for it i guess,.. but when it click.. it is always 1 pixel off.. it moves teh mouse RIght NExt to the non-white and clicks...

The clicked pixel probably isn't white. It may look white but it is probably not 0xFFFFFF. If its a real problem just add 1 to the X and Y coordinates.

wow , i just took a look with the au3info program.... the monsters have a coating of wierd colors which looks white... but can't be clicked...

i guess i gotta x+1 and y+1?

Well you can do that or use the window info tool to identify a unique color of the monster, without the PixelSearch() shade parameter.
