CTCCoco Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 Hello all. I'am a pawn scripter on SA:MP but I see that MTA its more good than SA:MP... I only want to know. If you know pawn will be more easy learn LUA or LUA its totally different? Pawn, PHP programmer. Training and learning LUA at the moment.
eAi Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 They're fairly different - but Lua is an easier language than Pawn - it's generally more forgiving. I'd follow the tutorials on the wiki to get a feel for it, but I reckon most people who have any experience programming in any language could pick up the basics of MTA scripting in a day or two.
50p Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 It may be hard at first but after couple of days/weeks (depends how quick you learn) you understand it. It has different syntax but it's more friendly and you don't have to pay attention to variable types. It's always easier to learn new scripting/programming language if you know one or more already than if Lua was your first scripting language. So, don't be afraid. - MTA Script Editor - Ask your scripting questions properly, please. - 50p's public resources - Meta.xml - what is it for? How is it possible LOL
dzek (varez) Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 well, my opinion about pawn and lua: - both took me 3 days thinking "wtf" before i got how it works - but.. pawn looks harder anyway, and i dont like it Multi theft auto tools - replace cars and peds, move your map or compile your Lua files online! programista php rzeszów Need free webhosting for your small site?

MCvarial Posted February 18, 2010 Posted February 18, 2010 PAWN is more difficult for sure, it might take you a while to figure everything out but after that you'll be able to say: "Lua makes more sense" anyways here are some good sites that could help you out: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/Main_Page http://robhol.net/guide/basics (Currently not accessible) http://lua-users.org/wiki/TutorialDirectory And if you need any help feel free to ask it on the forum in the scripting section or on irc (Server: irc.gtanet.com Channel: #mta.scripting)
