What is this?
We are presenting live modding workshops using a chat format to teach modding methods and techniques. The goal is to have group interaction to enable everyone to learn exactly what they are hoping to learn, and make the most out of the topic given by the presenter.
This is a very basic introduction to scripts. I will begin with the absolute basics, covering things such as:
- Types of Script
- Declaring variables
- Understanding syntax
- What is a function
We will start at the beginning and go as far as we are able in the time allotted. I will not have a predefined lesson this time, but rather the entire discussion will be catered to the skill and understanding of the participants.
Requirements:
1. A basic understanding of the Construction Set.
2. Morrowind and the Construction Set installed.
3. The latest version of Java. http://java.com/en/
4. A web browser and internet connection capable of running Ajax Chat (the same chat client on GHF.)
We intend to hold several of these workshops over the upcoming months. Hopefully they will help many of you learn a lot of new tricks and gain new ability when it comes to modding. That is our goal!
Some that we are working on bringing to you in the near future:
- Introduction to MWSE Scripting
- Introduction to the Blender Interface
- A General Lore Discussion
Everyone is freely invited to join in, whether you intend to create a mod or not. There is no cost nor obligation to GHF of any sort (you don't even need to be a member of GHF to participate.) However, to help offset the costs of operating GHF and all of our sponsored sites, there is a suggested donation of $2.00 for participating in the workshops. Again, don't feel obligated, we don't wish to pressure anyone. But it will help a lot, and be greatly appreciated...you will be helping to ensure the long-lasting future of GHF and all of our various endeavors!
Thanks to all who have given support to this endeavor of hosting these workshops!
