Game Scripting Mastery is a a book squarely aimed at helping design and create your own scripting language for games - you can even extend to creating an interpreter (like the original DB) so you can have your very own programming language!

I found this book really usefull, as some of you might know from the (4) interpreters I've developed and released. I'm selling it to help pay for some driving lessons.

The book is in almost perfect condition, and it comes with the included CD.

If you're interested in buying checkout:

(If you have any more questions about the item post here, or contact me through eBay!)

That might be considered illegal reproduction... Who knows how many wonderful secrets could be accidentally released on 1 or 2 pages?

I'm working on a high res photorealistic texture pack. High res as in 7 megapixels, e-mail me with suggestions.

killswitch: no,its just something I appreciate when some books are advertised. The DakBasic Professional Volume 1 did it(and I bought it in the end). Gives you a feel for how the information is presented in the book and how things are explained etc.

Doesnt have to be any specific page. Any random one or two.

That's actually a pretty good idea, I hadn't thought of it. Here we go:

Pretty cool. I work with Torque which is all done in C Script but this looks easy enough to pick up on. Cant hurt to learn something new and maybe can integrate something from this book.

18lbs, about $38 CDN w/ shipping. If its not taken by next tues, ill likely take it off your hands.

I'm not sure if the auction will last out untill next tuesday - but, if it hasn't sold, and you'd still like to buy it I can always re-auction it .
