Look this is really distracting me I tried to look on gmod wiki and no offense to it's creators but, it's the most useless guide I've seen in my life. What I'm really looking for is a guide that's straight fowards are possibly a viedo explaining how to start making sweps,gamemodes,and all that other shit.
do what i do, download lua files and strip them down and figure out how they work if you wont know what a functions or somthing takes/puts out check it on the wiki and just learn about it.

Found that pretty helpful. Other than that, I just looked at other people's stuff and generated ideas off of that.
For example, the [url=http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=744197]admin menu[/url] I created started off as a modification of the ASSmod menu (which I hated with a passion) and evolved from there as I got more ideas.

That is Lua that is the syntax of Lua that is the basics of Lua read it love it learn it. The wiki for a specific flavor of Lua in which custom commands have been inserted to access C++ code. Lua by itself is a simple language. The Lua on the gmod wiki is just specific things you call or run inside of the real Language of Lua.

But, you can say Lua if you please. It just means you put a capital letter in the middle of a sentence.

That's like saying if you type "English" with the capital E, it's putting a capital letter in the middle of a sentence.

[QUOTE=Documentation on lua.org]The official definition of the [b]L[/b]ua language is its reference manual, which describes the syntax and the semantics of [b]L[/b]ua, the standard libraries, and the C API.[/quote]
And on a different page of lua.org,
[QUOTE][b]L[/b]ua is intended to be used in other people's software, including yours. In most cases, [b]L[/b]ua is simply extended with new functions, and this is exactly what [b]L[/b]ua was designed for. These new functions adapt [b]L[/b]ua to your specific domain. When the time comes to distribute your software two questions may arise: "May I still call the language inside my software [b]L[/b]ua?" and "May I call it something else?". [/quote]
Sorry, I trust them more.
And for the record, you speak English, the same way other people speak Chinese, German, Spanish, etc.
