TheDeadlyHaze Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 The way I learned (Which is probably the harder way): 1. Go to the website www.codeacademy.com 2. Take the course on Javascript or Python, both of them are very similar to Lua on how the code is written 3. Once you feel confident on what you can do, try to get into the book Programming in Lua #3, or PIL for short, it will teach you everything you need to know about Lua 4. Don't mistake it for a coding language, it's a scripting language, there is only so much you can do 5. Start modifying weapons, vanilla DarkRP saves, addons 6. Use the Garry's mod wiki to find the functions, hooks, access the library (You will learn what that is on codeacademy and the PIL) and the class 7. Try taking it slow, it could take up to a month or to a year, it depends on the person Hopefully this helped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 The best places I can say to learn the fastest are the GMOD wiki, and MetaConstruct(its a server where you can mess with a little bit of client side lua as a very basic beginning method) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
