Hi all I'm currently going to school for Game Software Development. I'm not an artist or texturer. My main focus with my schooling is programming. If there is anyone that can help me understand the scripting language better I would greatly appreciate it. Btw I have a couple of scripts written so far. mainly for oblivion. Albeit only one is complete. Don't know if it works yet, tho it didnt kick up errors when i saved it so I think that means it should work :)

Hi aura, glad to see someone interested in scripting; we're in need of quest makers at the moment.

I'm not an actual scripter, but I've written a few personal scripts and tooled around with them; I might be able to give you some advice. There are some great tutorials on the main page of this site.

A script that is save-able doesn't necessarily mean it's bug-free. Try running it in game. Sometimes you get errors that aren't syntax errors, such as looping errors.

If you need more help, try registering for the forums, and then you can PM a quester and work with one of them.
