Modding/Scripting 101

[AfghanAnt]

Hey all,

So I've been actively trying to use EZScript but I think to accomplish some of ideas I have in mind I will need some a little less simple. Can someone point me to tutorials for modding with FFX3 in FFVTR? I'm pretty familiar with how modding works, but I could use a walkthrough to help ease the provess.

Sorry AA, I'm sure you've probably gone through all of these, but this is all I could find.

Other than these, I would say to talk to Benton or Prev about any specifics that aren't covered here.

OMG CB. Many Thanks!

Not a problem AA, while doing my search, I also found reference to a tutorial by Prev/Prem that may possibly be located at FRP2, but I couldn't find it for the life of me. I'm also going through all the tutorials I have saved in various subjects and am trying to get them organized, if I find anything that might be even remotely useful to you, I'll let you know.

AA, this isn't really what you were asking for, but I thought I'd post these here in case they could be of service to you.  I wrote a few EZScript tutorials that talk about how to get a bit more out of the program than seems immediately apparent:

The Ease of EZScript:

Doing More with EZScript:

I think it's awesome that you're branching out into modding!  Please feel free to drop me a line if you've got any questions or anything I can do to help you!

Sorry it took so long AA, but here's the link to Prev's/Prem's stuff:

Hope it helps.
