I want to start learning Torque

[DapwnageG]

Can someone tell me a few good tutorials for starters? I haven't been having so much luck with Google.

Thanks in advance.

download other addons, look through the coding, and learn.

if u have no other previous coding experience, then you should learn the basics of everything dealing with torque, arrays variables etc.

Is there any specific software I need or do I just open up a text document and start typing? I am not sure what components I need.

You just need notepad.

use notepad, and save as a .cs or a .gui (most of the time, you will use .cs)

The appendix helped me figure a bunch of stuff out

These references are not just for GUI making, but for torque too.

Best to learn something else first. I suggest C++ because it is closely related to TS. Other than that, good luck :D.

In my opinion, by learning something else first you're just going to take longer. Sure, having some prior programming experience would help, but I don't think it's worth it to start there if you want to get into TS now.
I started TS with only basic knowledge of a few procedural languages and no object-oriented knowledge, and it worked just fine for me.

Anyways, what most people do is what everyone says - look at preexisting stuff and modify it, then slowly work up to more complex things. If what you make doesn't work , you can always post it here.

I use Notepad++

Depending on what you're doing, you hardly need any prior programming knowledge to start scripting in Blockland.

I've programmed in Java, C++, PHP, and a few others, and I'm still learning/memorizing Blockland's functions and what they mean (quite unsuccessfully I might add). It's all memorization. Logic... not so much.
