Intro ::

This is just a quick template on how to make a lua boss script which
uses spells of your own choice in a certain time. Does not have phases
This guide is just for lazy people who does not wish to read Text of walls from
LuA guides.

function Boss_ChaosBlast(pUnit, Event) Ex. Bossname_spellname no name!
pUnit:FullCastSpellOnTarget(37675, target) The number is the spell id, you put in
pUnit:SendChatMessage(12, 0, "Feel the Chaos!") What the boss says when he casts the spell.
end function Boss_ShadowBurst(pUnit, Event)
pUnit:CastSpell(34436)

__________________________________________________________________________
yellow = just example and what each function do. so dont put them in the script.

afterwards, save it in notepad, save it as BOSS_name.lua
and put it in your scripts folder in your ascent folder.




I kinda rushed through this teaching one of my friend.
Engar is just a example boss.

again with the lua guide / templates ..... am i supposed to woot? well at least your not leaching i guess.

All I found was one template for LUA in this whole entire forum. Just though that the
Lazy guys would want to use Templates instead of reading hours and hours learning
LuA from your guide just to make one boss.

Like I said, this is for lazy people who does not like text of walls.
and the other Template I found was kinda bad and had lots of errors with
[color/] added into it by accident.

I am not saying that your guide sucks, but instead I think your guide is amazing.
I am just saying that most people don't like reading text of walls.

[runiker]

Ahh well yeah thats a good point sorry about the flame im half dead atm due to overdoing it on devloping for people!

[technique!]

Cheers! There's some great stuff. I haven't taken anytime to learn LUA yet :/

thanks,
technique!

An interesting Tactic there, But i think if people wanted to learn LUA they wont do it in just one glance. If someone wants to learn LUA they need to be seriosu.
That template may really only help a few people that can learn like that, the rest of us cant possibly learn LUA on just a template.
=S

Also [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] was a bit angry because he posted a LUA guide himself a while back, and it was a good one, only that this site has a tendancy to swollow up any guide weather good or bad and no one will ever remember, so its kinda a slap in the face for him to have another guide out there when his really was a wall ot text with effort behind it.
Same thing with sectorSeven's guide.
I whould be ticked off if someone posted a skimpier guide to GMing while mine is floating around here somewhere.

xD

If you can recreatre a LUA guide that tops this one you have my rep cookie =D
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
Or this one
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
I have a knack for knowing where guides are hiding in MMOwned =P

Like i said there is a reason lazy people dont know LUA =P

[Strupantwn]

Alright, let me tell you how much people you can find that do not understand nothing of
those LuA Guides even though they are very detailed and a lot of effort, but some
(Lazy guys) would not understand and will not be able to know where to put each
function and line etc. If his angry then pretty much everybody in this whole forum is
also, like you just linked, Sector7 made a LuA guide which provided very detailed of
LuA and then Rudik made another LuA guide for LuA, I don't see why I can't put
this here.

Also, I am not doing this for ReP, I was just giing a template to aother person on AiM so I
though I would'e just drop one down here helping the leechers easier with a template
which takes them about 3 min to make a quick and easy boss script.
If Rudik made his guide just for ReP then I have nothing to do with it, I don't see why
I can't POST something easier to follow real quick even though it's just a template to
help leechers with the scripting. If his angry about me posting this here because
he does not want to waste his effort on his guide for ReP then I have no power over that.

If people really want to read a DETAILED guide on LuA, I am SURE they will click on
Rudiks LuA Guide because his title explains it well that it's a text of wall.

If people really don't want to read that much and is in a hurry kind of guy, then
he will read MY guide that saids TEMPLATE in the title.
