Where to start [scripting]
#1

Well I know i will probably get tons of hate replies, that seems to be the normal here.

So after playing on a ton of GF edits I want to make my own game-mode. From scratch. I have never scripted in any GTA series. I thought this might be a challenging and interesting experience. So i deiced why not!

Anyways, I have read most of the pages from the SA-MP wiki page. They helped a little, but i am looking for any other good tutorials that start from the basic of the basic level. I have looked in the TUT section in this forums but all those TUTs use notepad to communicate with the viewer, which is cheesy. I am looking for a good voice tutorial. And anything else that might help a brand new scripter.

What are the best ways to start learning how to script? I know experience, but what to start of scripting in the beginning, ECT.

Thanks,
Ryan

Yeah thanks. I basically had a second thanksgiving with the wiki, through the last few days. And have read through a lot of the forums. I am looking more for a video TUT, with someone that can actually speak.

I will keep you in mind if I ever need help though.

I learned by looking at other GMs and trying to edit them and all (just to test, and learn). And also asking questions here when u get errors and all.

I'm still not a pro but I made a really good zombie outbreak server xD

when you're just starting just make some commands that you wouldn't even use(just for practice) e.g make a command which teleports you to a place and sends a message. then try something new. And just carry on, hopefully this helped.
