C# Tutorials and Docs - RunUO

Allmight · 10-29-2002, 08:39 AM

Some quick steps to scripting in RunUO.

1. Download RunUO at http://www.runuo.com/forums/downloads.php
2. Download .NET Framework.
3. If you want an editor other than notepad, you can find it at http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SD/default.asp
4. If you want to write other code than scripts in C# you should download the .NET Framework SDK from Microsoft. You can find it at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/default.asp
5. Read some of the tutorials below to get the basic grasp of C#

6. Study the scripts that come with RunUO to see how it works.

You should now be all set to start out on your own. When you have made
a script that you are proud of, share it at http://www.runuo.com/forums/custom-script-releases/

A call to the rest of the community. If you have something to contribute, like tips, tricks, links and other related stuff, please post it in this thread for easy finding for newbies and veterans to make use of. This way we can direct questions to this thread.

So come on everyone, share your knowledge with the community

First off, I’m a beginner to this kind of programming. So I was looking for a beginners book.

I picked up Beginning Visual C# by Wrox. This book was suggested to me by a few developers where I work. So far I like it a lot. Not too slow, and not too fast. I don’t have a C background, and I noticed several books start off with the idea that you do.
The one negative is they focus on VS .NET, as if everyone has it. (ok, I do, but still it can be considered a negative as they talk about how to do things specifically using VS.NET)

At the bookstore (B&N) I paid too much, you can get it here for less;

check around for better deals.

Allmight · 03-05-2003, 07:00 PM

Three good books. Will post them in the order they should be read.

1. SAMS Teach Yourself C# in 21 Days. ( Good for beginners. No Editor assumptions. ).
2. MICROSOFT Visual C# .NET: Step by Step. ( Good beginning book. Requires Visual Studio .NET. )
3. MICROSOFT Inside C#. ( For more advanced users. Requires Visula Studio .NET )

I am very satisfied with them.

More info...

SAMS Teach yourself C# in 21 Days. http://www.sams.com and do a search for ISBN 0-672-32071-1

Well... to tell the truth, they're good for a basic understanding of C#, but info about dll's and compiling in them don't work for XP. I just used http://csharphelp.com/ and then fiddled around with the scripts to get a better understanding

BizaR · 10-23-2003, 04:48 PM

If your looking for a book that explains everything you need and explanations on what it does this is a great book right here....

Visual C#.NET
Developers Handboom
by john paul mueller

comes with a CD that contains all examples of code used in the book... you can use them for your own projects.

also the CD includes utilities such as alchemy mindworks graphics workshop and GIF construction set, C Point Antechinus C# programming edditor, and philip craig's NUnit.

i found it at Fry's Electronics, you can visit their web for details on the book and how to obtain a copy

www.sybex.com
and www.sybexetrainer.com

chro · 09-19-2004, 07:00 PM

[FRENCH] a whole Book about c# in PDF.. it's like THE book to read, if you can read french, it's 420pages long, and realy well writen. u'll learn all you need to know about c# in that.

Sotho Tal Ker · 04-22-2006, 01:48 PM

Just to freshen this thread up a bit:
Here is the ECMA C# language specification which basically covers everything on like 550 pages with lots of examples. Good for looking things up if you are unsure.

I think this has the potential of offending someone, so keep in mind that I am posting this for the good of any newbies to C#--or any programming language at that. I am by no means trying to undercut anything any that you guys posted here before me.

I am brand new to the world of programming and I decided to start with C# for the simple reason that I'm a UO player and would like to make scripts for RunUO.

First of all--and this is JUST me; my opinion--I have yet to come across a web tutorial that could keep my attention long enough to explain to me what a class was. The whole "copy and paste this 'Hello World!' script into notepad and compile it and then we'll go over the parts step by step" thing just wasn't going to happen for me. I couldn't learn from it. So I made up my mind that if I was going to learn this programming language that I'd have to get a well-written book that catered to my mind and style of learning. And that is exactly what I did.

I searched Amazon for the highest rated C# programming book I could find that looked like it suited my needs. I read a few excerpts and came to a final decision on which one I would obtain. The book's title is standard enough: "Learn to Program with C#" by John Smiley. You can find it on the web at http://www.johnsmiley.com/mybooks/00...0072222611.htm. You can also buy it off of the guy's website, like I did, in a painless download purchase. If you ask me, it's totally worth buying and if you want to learn C# I highly recommend it.

The book is unique in that it follows the author--John Smiley, a computer programming professor--through an entire C# programming class as he teaches it. I found it very easy to connect with, and it explains everything in gory detail to enlighten even the most apprenticed blossoming programmer. I started reading it just a few days ago and I am already understanding the fundamentals of C# programming. I can finally, for the first time in my life, understand C# programming.

I must advise, however, for those anxious to jump right into the world of programming, that the first chapter doesn't delve into the coding right away, but rather with the proper methodology for approaching programming projects: Systems Development Life Cycle, a kind of step-by-step method of tackling large programming ventures. If this turns you off, feel free to just skip it and get on to the coding part. I, myself, found it pretty enlightening, and I think it is a good read just for future reference.

Lastly, you should really use whatever suits your needs best, be it online tutorials or technical books like the one I mentioned. Don't take my word for it, something else may help you learn more easily. This was simply the option that I chose and was best for me.

As with many other programming languages, Deitel has a pretty comprehensive book on C#. It's called "C# How To Program". We actually used that in college... Perhaps it might help...
