The Toolset and scripting question.

Stratos · 11-29-2003, 08:56 AM

I have decided to learn how to make a module using the Toolset. I have gone through some tutorials from BioWare's site and everything goes well until the I reach the scripting part. To put it simple; I'm a complete 'n00b' when it comes to scripting.

How does an aspiring scripter like me get started? Can anyone recommend me to something, a site or a tutorial, that can help me getting started? Remember that I'm a complete newbie and I have very little programming skills.

Thankful for any help!

I was complete new to scripting as well and learned alot from Celowin's tutorial in the NWN Lexicon. Once I had done that I could use the directions to scripting functions at the bottom of the screen (click a function and see what it says). Also a lot of scripts have examples in the NWN Lexicon. It's the most important reference IMHO. When you don't get anything just ask, not just how it should be but also why. Start easy and make the scripts more complex later

While your at the vault, check out lilac soul's script generator, it helps me a lot, and I'm not a scripting wiz, at all. If nothing else, it may help you get the basics figured out.
