Green Programmer

Okay well, hey there. I'm new the the whole scripting for UO.. I havn't done scripting since my sophmore year of high school when I programmed 3 levels of Frogger all by scratch (visuals and everything). It wasn't really that hard because it was in Visual Basic.

Well, at the time, and even know, I am playing Ultima Online and I have been asked to join as an Admin for a server. I'd like to do some scripting but I really don't know where to start. I assume I will need a program (like VB or Delphi) to view the current script files for UO but to be honest I'm not really sure. I was hoping I could get some good advise on which way is the "right way" to go about this.

Thanks.

I would start with C if you only have VB experience.

Learning the basics that C# is based upon often offers more understanding.

Make sure you find some resources that cover namespaces and inheritance - those two are big in a project like this.

Links galore!
