Hey dude. I was in your shoes approximately 2-3 weeks ago. The SA-MP wiki is the best ever and the forum guys are superb too, I got overwhelming support I ever needed. I had a bit of something to go on, because I knew about 5% of C++ language from school. Just declaring integers and all that. Now look below me, I got three Filterscripts (am not bragging, because they aren't too much, just an example).
Most of the functions in the scripting are Self explanatory. For example, GetPlayerName means you get a player's name. OnFilterScriptInIt means On loading the filterscript, what do you need to do IN IT? And so on.
If you want to start, read up the basics page at the samp wiki, I started from there, read about 5-6 pages, then started on my own and I think I know good scripting now but there's a lot to go on, still. If you haven't got the patience to read, you can't script, because scripting requires patience too.
Practice makes a man perfect! Don't even try to download super hard gamemodes that you won't understand, that will just demoralise you.
Get the server package, try checking out the basic filterscripts given in it, edit the gamemodes and so on.
Hope this helps,
Cheers.
