I am a little confused with using the twitch API and sockets, I would like to start from the beginning. I would like to be able to run commercials ever 20 or so minutes, and as i talked to xangold (xanbot) editors cannot run commercials through chat, so .commercial is completely useless. To do this you must run the API and sockets. 1. I have already requested the Client ID, how do i use this? 2. I have opened the json in the mIRC remote. 3. i installed the SSL library.
So can i get a noob-friendly guide on what to do next?

You use client ID to request access token.

Ok, you want to program a twich's bot through mIRC and you're seems to be new to programation. No offense here.
Don't be hasted and don't try now to create/improve your bot I you're learning programming.
I advise you to read with attention the mIRC help file in order to get the importants programimng's concepts. If/Else, loop, %variable, strings, dialog, function, events, sockets, etc... If you have questions about these concepts, feel free to request help, The community will certainly answer you.
I answered you yesterday on a different topic. I had explained you how to make your code correct, wich mIRC's concept you shoud know and I even wrote the correct code for you. You didn't answered.
I think you only want users make code for you.

He's been here for three months asking the most basic questions; I agree that he wants things done for him. Through multiple topics I've guided him through this process. He's commented on another topic where I gave the code to start commercials. This contains everything you need to know, if after reading the help files on a specific command you still don't understand, then fine. But don't respond with "how does this work", "this doesn't work", or "what do I do now". https://gist.github.com/memnochxx/5676bef5707a8019f0ca

You can do it manually using this link
https://api.twitch.tv/kraken/oauth2/authorize?response_type=token&client_id=[your client ID]&redirect_uri=http://localhost&scope=channel_commercial
Just replace [your client ID] with your client ID. Then you will be directed to error page which is fine. If you do it correctly, you will see your access token at the url/address bar. Copy and save it in your file for future reference.

If you need to reinitialize the twitch.ini file, then you can delete the file and access the menu from the right click menu in your channel. Or you could just call the alias from the command line...
And you're meant to only edit the client id in the ini file, not the script itself, but changing it in the file won't really hurt anything.

I am getting insufficient parameeters when i try to run the alias, i expect it's because in the last writeini in twitch.setup says %chan instead of $chan, but if that is not the reason correct me. I looked at your post about the following user, and this is what my twitch.ini looks like: (i do fill in those fields with my ID and token) Also cannot find that menu in the right-click menu of my channel, maybe i'm clicking in the wrong place but i could not find it.

It's not because of %chan, %chan is set either by the parameters passed to the alias or by $mnick. You should have more scopes listed for your channel, but I'll guess that's just because you didn't show the whole file. The only thing that could be preventing the menu from showing is syntax errors or missing parts to the script. Could you please paste the exact errors you're getting and the entire contents of the script file here: http://pastebin.com/*Edit, the menu would also not show if the twitch.ini file exists but the channel does not have a client_id or token set.

I got the menu working by pasting twitch.mrc again. Also that image from earlier was me pasting it in there myself. Basically starting over, deleting that file, I clicked the 'twitch setup' and set up the file with my client ID. When i use the 'request token' menu I get an error "Could not retrieve token", Could this be from requesting a token before with blessing's link?

I've tested the token retrieval under IE 11, Firefox 30, and Chrome 37. What browser and OS are you using? If using NoScript, make sure to allow the page instead of clicking the link it provides.
If the url of the page contains an #access_token=xxxxxx string, you can manually copy this token into twitch.ini under your channel's section as token=xxxxxx. If the url does not contain that string, please respond with what it does contain. Requesting multiple tokens should not be a problem.

I was getting an error but just now i tried and it worked o_o. Now I have all the scopes. It's all setup now, I created a simple !follow command for people in the chat to get a free follower. Now when i try to run a commercial with the !commercial or the commercial right-click menu It doesn't run the commercial, and i don't get an error [one that goes in the chat], i get this error in my status window: * /sockopen: 'twitch.follow.1239193423' socket in use (line 38, twitch.mrc) EDIT: also happens when i try !topic, I know i have editor permissions but it seems to not be working

$ticks is not sufficient to create a unique socket name if called quickly enough, you can instead increment a variable to use before naming the socket. inc -e %nonce
var %sockname = twitch.follow. $+ %nonce I've updated the code to include this "nonce" (only for twitch.follow at this point, although I should do it for every socket). I've also added a window to display errors, at this point only errors for commercials are displayed. You can reach the debug window named Twitch.tv under the Window item in the menubar. If you are unsure what the errors mean, please report what they are. As always you can see the specific changes by checking the revisions page (these changes are split over two revisions): https://gist.github.com/memnochxx/5676bef5707a8019f0ca/revisions*Edit: if you aren't calling these things too quickly it sounds like you have the script loaded twice.
