CLEO 3 is the next step in the CLEO project development that extends coding possibilities in the game GTA San Andreas.
Features
CLEO 3 has 50 useful opcodes in store, such as file management, game memory handling, ability to call the exe functions and much more. The third version adds such opcodes as call of a SCM function, creating a thread or starting a mission from an external file and more. To use all these opcodes, install the latest version of CLEO 3 library.
The CLEO plugins are the DLL files having an extension .CLEO. At startup, the CLEO library scans the folder GTASA\CLEO for the files with that extension and tries to load them. If successful, the plugin begins to work and complete the functions it was made for.
The plugin installation is very simple: just copy the plugin file to the folder GTASA\CLEO. To cancel the plugin usage, delete a proper file.
You may download a plugin following a link from the left column.
CLEO 3 allows adding the custom scripts to the game written in Sanny Builder without need for starting of a new game. All you need is to write a script, place it in the CLEO folder and run the game (new or saved).
CLEO 3 supports SA of both versions 1.0 and 1.01. It was tested with the US 1.0 and EUR 1.01 versions. If you have another version, please, let me know if CLEO 3 works or does not for you.
CLEO 3 doesn't work with game version 2.00 and higher. To get it working you need a downgrade patch (.exe of version 1.0 preferably).
Installation
You can download the stand-alone archive or auto-installer. To install CLEO 3 in such a way, unzip this archive to the game root directory or run the installer and follow its instructions.
You also can install CLEO 3 from Sanny Builder 3. Run Sanny Builder 3 and you will see the word CLEO in the status bar outlined in red. Click it, read the license agreement and press the button ‘Install’.
CLEO 3 uses 3 files in work: vorbisFile.dll, vorbishooked.dll, cleo.asi. First two ones are the ASI loader. You can always find the latest versions of these files here.
CLEO 3 redistribution
If you wrote a script using the CLEO library and (or) its plugins, you may distribute needed CLEO files along with that script. You also may direct the script users on cleo.sannybuilder.com to inform them how to use CLEO.
