Massive SCAR Tutorial?

I was thinking that, we should make a huge Scar script tutorial like a massive tut in a script, onto like a form, and theres a tab on the side and you click what you wanna learn about and it will show the tut in the middle of the page on a memo.

Just wondering can you add pictures to a Memo?

Maybe have like all the important tutorials just written all into one script.. Idk….. Just an Idea Who agrees/Disagree's and why :)

i like the idea, but kinda dont also. I know the tuts i want and have them all bookmarked :p. It would be convenient but you have to have a very good way of organizing them if you were to put all of the good tuts together(meaning not just beginner, intermediate, and advanced. also i dont think you can put pictures in memos(though i havent wanted to so i havent asked like…sky scripter :p). and finally you'd have to convert every tut so that they looked like they did on srl(meaning how would you get scar tags?, bold?, different colors, and sizes? colors, sizes, and bold you could do, but i could get to be quite complicated)

lots of stuff you have to think about before doing this :)

i think it's a great idea, but to be honest, i don't think SCAR would be the way to go into compiling the best tutorials around in together. although. if you could figure out a way to make a "hands on" tut in SCAR. although if you are just putting the tuts up, SCAR isn't the way to go

Well, I really like the idea, but as it was already said: it should be close to impossible to do this correctly on a form with scar. But, what I think would be a cool idea: have one huge tutorial, which would be created in a team, to cover everything, from "begin"s to forms (of course only members should be able to work on this, to guarantee it's correctness). Someone could work on variables, someone else on constants, someone else on colors, someone else on bitmaps, someone else on DTMs (DTMs and DDTMs should be kept seperate), etc.
By the way, if that is ever being worked on, please inform me, I would love to do variables or colos. :D

i like the idea, just impractical. :)

maybe if you had a team of people to do this, but then again i dont think a bunch of people want to go line by line in a tut and change the format of the text ;)

What about doing like srl? making many "includes" (library2, squig) into one biig library,
but instead of includes we are using tuts ofc.

Take the best from the best tuts and make a massive tutorial. Maybe i can make a www.ScarTutorial.moo.no (.moo.no is a free Norwegian host page, No ads ;)), and so can you guys send me tutorials and so i'll add them?

:)

i would be more than happy to lend you a helping hand every once in a while, but I cannot fully commit due to my busy schedule…drop me a pm if there is anything you:

a. cant figure out
b. need an extra person to do a task (nothing too time consuming)

good luck dude ;)

doubt itll will happen, plus there are already good existing tuts to use :). pwnaz0r's all around tut is probably the best all around tut so far anyway. havent read it in a while so dont know if it has everything but still could probably be expanded a little and be all needed :)

also theres

which could probably use some updating but still already has a massive amount of tuts by category :)
