where to go to learn scripting

[emmettcullen93]

i have looked for scripting classes and only found builders brewery, and helping haven that offer classes. also college of scripting has tutorials but i found them way confusing. lol anyway i am looking to see if there is a better spot to find scripting classes or if these two are your best.

Really I found the best way to learn scripting is to pick up a good book to learn the basics in a structured way Plus playing around a lot Scripting Your World (the official guide to second life scripting) is an excellent learning resource and reference Creating Your World (another book in the same series) also contains very good tutorials as well as building etc I would get one or the other of these. They are a bit out of date but very good. Obviously you can look through other peoples scripts and try to pick them apart but there's nothing like writing a script yourself from scratch. And of course the wikis http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LSL_Portal are a constant companion throughout your scripting SL.

One place I fount to be a brilliant source of practical examples of scripts and the way they work as well as having a great support group was the Collage of Scripting, Music and science.

I will post the SLurl and the exact name if I got it wrong when I log into SL next unless someone here beats me to it. But you can search for the group in SL Search and ask in there for a LM to the collage.

Also the NCI has some good scripting classes that cover the basics and even some more advanced topics ;-)
