This isn't a tutorial.

I just woke up and the bullshit servers I saw at the master-list made me change my morning boxers.

Seriously, What the fuck do people think these days? What I do think is that we need many new scripters, Coming out with cool ideas, They don't have to be 'unique'.

Let's face it, SAMP is limited. Shit can't be really unique nowadays and if you have something unique, It'll be copied by some server instantly.

But the need for more scripters is arising everyday, Do not let anyone fool you.

You can learn PAWN-Code within the first month or two. You will NOT be a pro at it, but you'll learn it.

As many people might hate me for saying this:

You'll learn much faster by editing a GM, rather than making one from scratch. Making it from scratch as a newbie scripter will cause you to get errors, piss you off and make you quit.. Am I right? I know, It happened to me when I was just a newbie here.

https://sampwiki.blast.hk/ <--- Your new bible, read it, learn it, speak it.

Once you've gotten those under the palm of your hand, You're set to start editing.

You can also CTRL+F in a script to learn more about what IsPlayerNearCar means, for example.

Scripting's fun. Don't take it as a 'job', or a 'must'.

If any mods want to lock this, please go right ahead. I just felt like making this to give our fellow newbie scripters courage.

And after all, If you still need help, I'm sure the SA-MP forums will be more than glad to help you out.

Thanks alot for reading my thread. I hope it helped

Feel free to contact me for any needs you might have related to SAMP.

Don't forget to indent your code too..

Anyway change the line Your new bible, read it, learn it, speak it.
Since we christians will be mad on you.

Change it to "Your new helper, read it, learn it, speak it"

I agree with you, people who want to learn PAWN they need to edit some scripts, because as you said creating a GM from scratch can be pain in the arse.

And also i agree on scripting must be fun.

I've seen some people script like it their life depends on it, that is not a good idea, vice versa if you script for fun and when you are relaxed, you can script better and more effeciantly.

SA:MP is just a game modification, most of the newbie's here are most attempted to run a server but when they get used to PAWN they forget about the server and will get addicted to scripting PAWN can be addictive not SA:MP because you are creating stuff that others can see and use.

However, my main point is script for fun, enjoy it and when you bump into errors you can't fix don't push yourself into fixing it OR you may lose your ideas and rage delete the whole script.

I agree with you aswell
I started to edit some other GMS to learn scripting now i can script myself things like firstperson cams or working sam sites and this kinda stuff.

The opposite,SAMP is unlimited,you just don't know what can you make with it.
Just think a little more about what you can do with it and you will understand.

Actually it is limited but we can't pass the limit, it has big limits and great ideas can come out of it.

It's a figure of speech.

That's why we have multi-language forums. [http://forum.sa-mp.com/forumdisplay.php?f=33]

I know what you are talking about my point is, at some some stage no one can think of a unique idea because it will be already thought of so they will release improvements of the current systems.

And once somebody comes out with a unique idea, People will copy it.

Wouldn't hurt to try however.. Just disappointing.
