hi guys,

I currently want to learn mirc scripting and was wondering if anyone knew of any good places to learn (basic tuts for a coding newbie, and not /help please) and a good forum for mirc scripting (phpbb, invision power board, vbulletin) thanks.

This is a good forum for mIRC scripting wink

There are many sites with tutorials, to name a few:

Most of the scripting websites have their own web boards of some description:

http://www.mircscripts.org/forumlist.php
http://www.mirc.net/forums.php
http://www.mircscripts.com/phpBB/index.php
http://www.hawkee.com/phpBB2/index.php

There are also a number of Tutorials sections on those websites which contain many documents on many areas of mIRC scripting:

http://www.mircscripts.org/archive/tutorials
http://www.mirc.net/projects.php?go=tut
http://www.google.com

You could also look for code snippets, which are a practical way to learn how to script. General experience is the only true teacher though...

Regards,

You can ask any question you like (within reason) regarding scripting in the scripts and popups section, you can also post in the developers forum (but i've noticed people tend to ask for help on harder questions in the developers forum).

Depends on the network smile You might try /list *script* or /list *scripting* to see if that works, check out the topics of the different channels, and choose one that you think would help you the best smile

Well, I was taking a look at the pinned post about not advertising networks or channels in here, and I'm honestly not sure if recommending a network and/or channel would be considered advertising. I'm sure that on just about every 'larger' network (I'm not saying that it has to be 20-30k+ users) would have a few advanced scripters on it willing to help. My best advice is to look around and play with /list to find channels. You'll eventually get the help you need. You can also look at /help topichere on mIRC or a websearch for more topics. smile
