[old sequoia]

[dreamy wyvern]

got it thank you

[stable lynx]

** You are now Level 1! **

[dreamy wyvern]

so ill watch those for scripting

[old sequoia]

but he will not teach everything

[dreamy wyvern]

ahhh ok

[old sequoia]

there is alot of another channels

you can check

but

brawldev is thee best

for the start

[dreamy wyvern]

got it

[old sequoia]

then you can check gnome code and etc

and dont forget the roblox api

[ebon viper]

@glossy flicker i send you friend

[stable lynx]

** You are now Level 2! **

[glossy flicker]

you can also go on the dev forums

[ebon viper]

accept me

[old sequoia]

roblox api will always be better because it will always contain updated information

[dreamy wyvern]

wats dat

[dreamy wyvern]

is that like written information on how to do certain scripts

[old sequoia]

it is like

a list

that has everything

like everything

and u can see what all the things do here

and how to use them

[dreamy wyvern]

gottt it

[old sequoia]

but it might be too complex

if you dont know nothing

so at first i highly recommend watching youtube tutorials

[dreamy wyvern]

i gotchu

i was also tryna learn modeling and animation so when i wanna make my first game project i can add some of those too

[old sequoia]

i dont know shit of modeling

i know a little of animation

[dreamy wyvern]

damn fr

how do u make games with just scripting

[old sequoia]

i can just do simple models and animation

[dreamy wyvern]

ah gotchu

[old sequoia]

but modelling with blender is hard asf

even moving the camera is comlpex

[dreamy wyvern]

damn fr

[old sequoia]

complex*

also for animation i know you could use blender or the plugin moon animator

you also could use the normal roblox animator but that is very bad

[dreamy wyvern]

i gotchu

[old sequoia]

but

moon animator price is a little spicy

1700 robux

blender is free

[dreamy wyvern]

yikes wtf

[old sequoia]

but blender is way harder than moon animator

[dreamy wyvern]

imean

[old sequoia]

i mean

it is not that hard

[dreamy wyvern]

thats not the worst

[old sequoia]

if you know how to animate on blender you know how to animate at moon

[dreamy wyvern]

gotchu

[old sequoia]

but if you like

want do cutscenes

you woulda need to know how to model

so you can have a scenario to animate

on blender

[dreamy wyvern]

yeah in the future i do want cutscenes for my game

I know this is gonna take a while but how long do you think it took you to learn all the basics of scripting

[old sequoia]

it is good to build a scenario because you dont know where the rig (the character that you are animating) would be on blender

[old sequoia]

well

if you focus you can learn rlly fast

not alot

but i think my progress is very good already

you just dont want to do very complex things

so you can learn way faster

[dreamy wyvern]

yeah start with the easy stuff firstg

then as you go on do more complex stuff

[old sequoia]

and

also

never copy code from AI

[dreamy wyvern]

why lmao is that bad

[old sequoia]

very

very bad

AI use outdated shit

and if you copy code you are learning nothing

you should use AI as your assistent

assistant*

[dreamy wyvern]

nah i wouldnt do that if im actually trying to make something but like one day if i wanted to mess around i might

[stable lynx]

** You are now Level 2! **

[old sequoia]

but that is also bad

[dreamy wyvern]

well i didnt wanna use ai to hlep me thats why i came here

[old sequoia]

you did right

chatgpt should always be the last option

or any AI

[dreamy wyvern]

yeah i feel like especially for this type of stuff

[old sequoia]

with human interaction you also can learn way better than ai

[dreamy wyvern]

oh yeah def

im not exspecting anybody to teach me one on one though

cus i dont wanna use up someones time like that

although it may go quciker

[old sequoia]

yea but when you need help you always can open a post here

[stable lynx]

** You are now Level 8! **

[old sequoia]

im not the only one

[dreamy wyvern]

alr sounds good

[old sequoia]

and

always try to find the solution yourself too

this helps you learn way quicker

[dreamy wyvern]

does it

like solutions to certain bugs or?

[old sequoia]

yea like that

[dreamy wyvern]

alr

i heard people spend a lot of time on bugs 😭

[old sequoia]

yea they do but they earn a great knowledge with them

by the way, when you watch brawldev there will be these 3 playlists

watch the begginers scripting first

and then you need to watch the GUI tutorial and the advanced together

[dreamy wyvern]

gotch

so just those three in order

[old sequoia]

yea

[dreamy wyvern]

goddamn

thats a ot of videos

[old sequoia]

yea and this will only teach you the basics

dont rush your time

it will take alott of time

[dreamy wyvern]

yeah ill just take it day by day

im tryna keep notes too

just in case i forget stuff
