Title: Scripting tutorial
Post by: Deadly Alince on October 08, 2011, 11:16:23 AM
Hello everybody, I hope its not too much to request scripting tutorials like in w3schools.com, because I cant clearly understand scripting in other tutorials and I tried, I learn Java and its pretty easy but nothing from scripting{ruby language?} is like in Java.
please can someone make a tutorial that explains commands in scripting, what they do and how can I use them step by step with examples if its not too much to ask.
other tutorials don't give examples of the commands and what they do, and if they give examples they are too difficult to understand for someone who only starts with scripting, I wish to learn scripting so I can actually make a game that is worth playing, I can understand how to pixel, draw and color on computer logos with Photoshop and other programs, but I cant learn scripting with the current tutorials online, I checked many before writing this and I didn't fully understand them.
I hope that someone will make an easy step by step tutorial for people like me.
thank you for reading this and I hope someone will help  :)

I've never watched them, but I have heard mostly good things about GubiD's scripting tutorials: http://www.rpgmakervx.net/index.php?showtopic=44501

Some people have informed me there are errors. There is also apparently one by Pacman, but I always forget to look at it and then it magically vanishes. But I'm sure they are good too and should be on this site somewhere.

Looking at pure Ruby tutorials can also help you. There are way more of them after all.

I understand scripting a little better but still I don't know how to use them, lets say I want to create my own main menu, add options, make a build character option with a resource folder.
Is there a tutorial that can teach me how to create my own scripts???
by the way that is a good tutorial Pacman I hope you make more  :)

I did try GubiD's tutorials but the YouTube is blurry and and I cant see what he writes clearly so I have syntax errors in the scripts I try to copy to understand ruby from him, I prefer tutorials like the once Pacman is making, since I can understand the commands better, following examples is easy when they are clear and with GubiD's tutorials I didn't manage to get the scripts done correctly.
And I am reading pure ruby tutorials now on "http://rubylearning.com/satishtalim/simple_constructs.html", And I still cant understand from that how to create my own script/Class that will be used in RMVX, on top of it when I look in the scripts in RMVX I get lost pretty easily in the context.
any advice?
