For the past couple of months I've been learning RGSS and I've got the basic stuff down such windows, variables, conditional statements, ect. But, I can't see myself making big scripts such as a jumping system or a side view battle system. I was wondering how you learned to script because I really want to know how to script really well.
Thanks in advance.
Hey there,
Well I don't make battle neither though I can still teach you some things :)... The way I've learned to script is by reading other scripts for the most part. I've allways been interested in other peoples work but this time I though I had to try to make something myself...and it worked!! The most importand thing when you go scripting is (at least in my case) that you want to make something to help an other wich can't script. You also need to feel the competition that's around in the scripting-community. Cause, I have to say, if you get pushed to get a sertain request done before an other scripter does, you feel POWERFULL!! :P So that's an other thing... You also don't need to be afraid to learn from others or helpfiles. When I write my scripts, I actualy always have the helpfiles open to look things up I don't know or remember. Then, you must be calm, cause you need to try the script a lot of times. When I write a script, I test it after almost every changes. First I set up the major structure. Like when I make a window-script or part of a script I start with something like this:
CODE
class Window_Name < Window_Base def initialize(x,y,width,height) super(x,y,width,height) refresh end
def refresh self.contents.clear draw_contents end
def draw_contents draw_something(with, some, parameters) end
def update refresh if @something != @what_it_should_be end end
So that's also very important. Then, the biggest thing I learned scripting from is TRIAL AND ERROR. That's the most irritating way to learn something, cause it's more ERROR than TRIAL, but it does the trick realy good.
So that's it how I did it. Now it's up to you. Do some requests (if I didn't do it allready :P) and learn from them.
Hope that helped you out a little. If not, keep your eye on the Scriptology-topic (see my sig) where I'll be updating for my scripting(video)tutorials. Perhaps they're going to be usefull for you one day ;)
I look forward to the Achievments System, but shouldn't the fraction display be named something like progress going by the information you provide in the description. Like percentage.
Thanks for the feedback and the correction (me = dyslextic dutch guy ). I'm indeed going to changes the name of the now so called Fraction Display script into sth else. I shall think about it when I've finished the script and name it to it's functions. The Achievements script will be doing almost the same as the Fraction Display...well I think and hope. I'll only have to adjust some things and then it'll work for u as well I asume. I'll see what I can do for you (with the script) to make it work correctly as you want (WoW like).

Oke I've actualy updated Read a lot...some more easy input and all. Though I realy suck at making help files and all...so pls be patient, cause I'll upload it as soon as I can. I'm also working on a demo on that, wich I will be making a vid of as well (how did I make that video )
Oke that's it for now. I hope to go on with some scripts soon

I'm afraid not Lockheart...not jet. First I actualy want to finish my faction script, wich only needs the feature to scroll (and some small bugs wich will be handle with in updates (after the beta)).
But I have some idears on how to do it...so it shouldn't be that long a time to wait for it.

Also have I started a HUD's Requesting Loby where I'll be putting HUD's and take requests for them. Hope you come by some time
Further more, I've managed to find a script that let me input all data from the keyboard, wich makes it posible for me to get on with the Journalscript. It's going to be a nice script...Though I'm not sure what people will do with it
As last, I've been working on the podcast lately...well the website. It's up and running, though without any content. Go have a look and tell me what you think of the desing: www.scriptology.co.nr

I'm currently working on the Journal script and it's working pretty good All input is done; 0~9, A~z, <>?:"{}|+_)(*&^%$#@!~`-=\][';/., and ENTER SPACE TAP CAPLOCK ALT CTRL BACKSPACE. So still need to do some work on the storages of the things. I also wish to add a cursor, so that's more easy to see. Back to work, got the AutoNew Line to do (when string get's to long, start on a new line).

Whooh, an other demo has been made! Read now has it's own demo, screenshot and a new version (v2.5). I must say I've been productive today (though my stomach is empty now ).
For the past couple of months I've been learning RGSS and I've got the basic stuff down such windows, variables, conditional statements, ect. But, I can't see myself making big scripts such as a jumping system or a side view battle system. I was wondering how you learned to script because I really want to know how to script really well.
Thanks in advance.
Hey there,
Well I don't make battle neither though I can still teach you some things :)... The way I've learned to script is by reading other scripts for the most part. I've allways been interested in other peoples work but this time I though I had to try to make something myself...and it worked!! The most importand thing when you go scripting is (at least in my case) that you want to make something to help an other wich can't script. You also need to feel the competition that's around in the scripting-community. Cause, I have to say, if you get pushed to get a sertain request done before an other scripter does, you feel POWERFULL!! :P So that's an other thing... You also don't need to be afraid to learn from others or helpfiles. When I write my scripts, I actualy always have the helpfiles open to look things up I don't know or remember. Then, you must be calm, cause you need to try the script a lot of times. When I write a script, I test it after almost every changes. First I set up the major structure. Like when I make a window-script or part of a script I start with something like this:
CODE
class Window_Name < Window_Base def initialize(x,y,width,height) super(x,y,width,height) refresh end
def refresh self.contents.clear draw_contents end
def draw_contents draw_something(with, some, parameters) end
def update refresh if @something != @what_it_should_be end end
So that's also very important. Then, the biggest thing I learned scripting from is TRIAL AND ERROR. That's the most irritating way to learn something, cause it's more ERROR than TRIAL, but it does the trick realy good.
So that's it how I did it. Now it's up to you. Do some requests (if I didn't do it allready :P) and learn from them.

Mmm, the taste of almonds - anathema to many with nut allergies, and a bad sign for many more, as my taste is not unlike that of cyanide. Am I good or am I poison? A risky thing to guess about. What Flavour Are You?
What Mystical creature are you? Pegasus
You are a shy, night time person and you are very gentle and soft hearted. You are like the opposite from your cousin the unicorn.

The four aspects that make up this personality type are:
Summary of Strategists
* Quiet, easy-going and intellectually curious * Use logical, objective thinking to find original solutions to problems * Think of themselves as bright, logical and individualistic * May be impractical, forgetting practical issues, such as paying bills or doing the shopping
More about Strategists
Strategists are quiet people who like to get to the heart of tough problems on their own and come up with innovative solutions. They analyse situations with a sceptical eye and develop ways of measuring everything, including themselves.
Strategists are the group most likely to say they are unhappy in their job, according to a UK survey.
Strategists are generally easy-going. They are intellectually curious and enjoy abstract ideas. Sometimes they like thinking of a solution to a problem more than taking practical steps to solve it.
In situations where they can't use their talents, are unappreciated, or not taken seriously, Strategists may become negatively critical or sarcastic. Under extreme stress, Strategists could be prone to inappropriate, tearful or angry outbursts.
Strategists may be insensitive to the emotional needs of others or how their behaviour impacts the people around them.

It's been a long time since I've updated this. There's happend a lot. I've made some new scripts and updated others. So today I've released Achievements wich will look realy good on my CV as a script haha. So I've also been working on a new version of AutoLight wich is done...though I'm too lazy to make new documentation at the moment But I think I'll release it soon as well since it has the whole new feature to use EventLights as well (so a pretty cool expansion). So I hope to post that soon as well. I also think I'm going to stop with the pixelmovement or just start over totaly since it's just crappy as hell...I didn't started the right way so it's not a realy succes. Further more some info about the Journal script, I'll be releasing a BETA soon as well hehe, so lot's of releases in a short period I hope haha. Then, for an other script I've made and uploaded (yes I did haha), New Menu Items...For that I've made a tutorial wich I will be put on the topic today since it's just finished uploading to youtube. And I see it as a good start for my recordings on Scriptolgoy as well. Though I think I need to make an other more fancy looking site, I will start making the video-tutorials soon since I quite liked it to record the tutorial on how to use the New Menu Items script So that's it for now.

I won't be online till 05-08-'09 since I'll be in Sweden selebrating holiday. Though you can still keep posting, I'll awnser all replies when I get back.
Post about what you think of my scripts, what can be improved and if you have suggestions or found any bugs in one of my scripts.
