At least one of them has kept himself busy just making sure the site stays on-line. I don't know about the others. I was really looking forward to the scripting class, though. . .

Okay, I'll keep dropping in from time to time, but don't start without me!

All students will get a PM once I get the syllabus and it will start in a standard week from that time, with whosoever affirms they still want to take the class. Registration will still be open for that time period(and is open now, I'll reference the two related threads for a student list).

so can i ask to take the scripting class? or are their pre-requisites for it? and what games will this cover? rtw, m2tw, etw?
I would like to see empires covered in the next classes.
You can take it. There are no pre-requisites. The scripting class covers Medieval 2 and Kingdoms, but some of it will be applicable to Rome as well. The scripting language in both is the same, minus a few of the parts, you will just have to speak to a Rome scripter to better understand the limitations in that system.
Empire uses a language called LUA, which is wholly different. Trying to describe it now when so little is known about the engine would be a futile exercise. But there are plenty of guides and tutorials a user can take, perhaps even books, about learning how LUA syntax works and understanding all the core concepts, which will help them understand the interface language used in Empire.
If Hex approves such a thing(and by Hex I mean those charged with the administration of the Uni), assuming someone wishes to hold said class, then one will be held. However, and as I stated elsewhere, tutorials are the best place for Empire information until the engine stabilizes, because what we don't want for classes is for them to become obsolete, as they are all archived and meant to be the absolute most helpful resource to aspiring modders.

Al -- if you are creating a student list from this thread, count me in for the scripting class.

The Scriptorium is looking for great articles. Don't be bashful, we can help with the formatting and punctuation. I am only a pm away to you becoming a published author within the best archive of articles around.

Please count me in in addition.... I already have a coprehensive list of future modders that would REALLY LOVE a modding class by anyone who would like to step up to the task.
If you think that you could do a modding class please let the TWC team know as well as myself and lets get the ball rolling asap...You would be welcome by many with open arms....
Thank you and count me in for scripting please!!

I would like to take the scripting class if at all possible (never taken a class on here so I am not completely sure what it entails but I bet I am up to it. )
so will we see some classes on Empires? did HEX boot all the professors.

i'd love to take any class about medieval or rome (i don't have empire, and don't intend to get it for sometime - due to system specs)
