Thanks you for the help...

you know it's actually really hard to understand... I don't think it says it clearly enough for me.

its as simple as possible, took me about an hour to learn jass using it...
i had some programming knowlege before reading though.

I had no programming knowledge, but it didn't took me very much to understand the basics. The really basic things (what is a function, what are locals, how to use them and things like those) I learnt from Vexorian's tutorial. The other things I learnt from studying other people's code and by receiving tips from people with more experience in Jass. I realised that I like programming

Ty where is that tutorial i might understand it better.

How long did it take you, smith? I would love to learn JASS, but I haven't found the time. If it takes just an hour to learn, as SFilip said, then I might be encouraged to clear some things in my schedule. From a first glance at the tutorial, it looks like I'd have to clear time for a week or longer.

Well, I had a long story: first, I start reading Vex's tut, in less than an hour I learned what is a function etc, then I started to make simple functions and I was keep getting compilation errors, I was getting very annoyed and this, along with the thing that I was busy with school made me forget about learning Jass. Then, I started it again and, with a lot of help from Daelin, I became more experienced and now I'm getting better and better. I started learning Jass about 2 months ago, but from this 2, probably just 1-2 weeks I learned Jass. Considering the fact that I had no experience in any programming language, I think it didn't took me too much... Anyway, it worths learning it, it'll make your life much easier in Wc3 modding

Tip: be patient. my mistake was that I was very impatient

What I do is make a trigger, then convert it to custom text, This is helping me learn the basics.

Partly off topic: But like Sfilip, I have past programming knowledge(VB 6, HTML+some CSS+ java script(They are kind of linked)
But I learned about variables in world editor.

 

[Monovertex]

The thing is that GUI uses a lot of shitty stuff (ie: the BJ functions that call another function =/ ).

I thought it converted to jass.

It converts to gui text?

 

[SFilip]

simply converting will help, but you need to learn the advantages of jass from a tutorial.

> But I learned about variables in world editor.
if you didn't learn this before "facing" with the editor then honestly how much programming knowlege you have?
and btw JS, CSS and html aren't programming, they are scripting languages.
