Scripting: Beginner Links

[AKM]

New to it?  So am I.  Here are some links that should help.  I'm going from an Oblivion standpoint, just so you know.

 

You'll need the Elder Scrolls Construction Set.  I haven't delved too far into this as of yet, but it's the place to start for scripting Oblivion apparently.  You need a basic understanding thereof.  1-18-2014 version below:

The Wiki for it.  Has some good examples of scripting I found with the search function:

A nice introduction to scripting tutorial here:

Best place to start, I've found is to find a mod with scripts whose actions you can follow easily; then open it up in the editor and browse to help you figure out what does what when and where etc.  The above tutorial helped me a lot here.
