RnDr FOX:
Yea I am thinking about getting into scripting, do you have any suggestions on what a new guy like should do first. Also what program language does anim8or use (like java)

spicy:
I would guess it would be Java, but I could be wrong. I have always wanted to do scripting ( I am in July, I am going to John Leggot College to try out some scripting for the day, using Java). It should be fun. Hope people will let us know

Kubajzz:
Anim8or uses it's own scripting language (ASL means Anim8or Scripting Language). You can find it's specification here: http://www.anim8or.com/scripts/spec/Anim8or_Scripting_Language.html

It's really easy to write scrpts, I recommend you to download the plane plugin; read the code and then try to create your own simple shape...

Also check this topic: http://www.anim8or.com/smf/index.php?topic=206.0
- it will help you understand how the plane primitive script works...

And one more link: http://anim8or.org/forums/index.php/topic,777.msg7544.html#msg7544
- the first post of that topic contains an attachment with 3 simple parametric shapes, maybe they will also help you to learn scripting...

Just try it, you will find out that it looks more difficult than it is...

btw. I'm glad you appreciate the diamonds... I created it for fun, to learn scripting... And then I thought I would post it :) Thanks

spicy:
thanks Kubajzz for your advice and help

RnDr FOX:
I know that anim8or uses ASL but what scripting language was used to create anim8or itself. Like did he use java to create anim8or and coded it where anim8or can use its own language. Can you explain this to me cause I am still a little confused on that. But right now am studing the ASL language.
