Where to get started? and with what

[CreativeXtent]

Hey there everyone!

I am wanting to learn a language that i can use to create bots.
Yes this is one of those, "newbs asking stupid questions" post, but i do want to learn and see what i can do.

Thanks everyone!

What language are you interested in? There are quite a few such as C# C++ etc then theirs stuff like AutoIt. Most have the potential to create a bot.

You should start off by installing the Microsoft Visual Studio for the language of your choice. Once it's installed you can start the long hard work of learning coding.

I normally teach myself by using eBooks about the language and reading other source codes. There are many you can download for free. Once I got the basics of the language I then "cloned" other software in my own code (like Notepad) and kept actively looking on the internet should I need help. There are some wonderful coding community's out there.

To start I would read around about the language you want to learn on web sites, forums, eBooks maybe.

For very beginners, you could start with some Visual Basic, and then go over to C# and when you got all the basic knowledge of memory reading/writing you could start to actually code bots in it, then if you want to take it even further you could go ahead and learn something like C++ which is the language wow is written in, so theres a couple ideas you could start off with.

To start off with programming theres a website that contains over 200 tutorials in both Visual Basic, C# and C++ it's called thenewboston.org they will also give you basic tutorials in memory writing and reading, all of their videos are in sharp quality (1080p)

Its good to see some new people joining the programming forums, therefore I gladly contribute with comments on these kind of threads.

Good luck with your programming adventure.

If you are just starting then AutoIt might be the best way to go since working with memory might be a bit confusing for most people. And you can easily make some anti-afk bot without much knowledge.
But then again it might be better to start with something more complex so it won't be like "omg what is all this stuff, i quit" later when you progress. Then C# is up your alley.

But one thing to remember - practice and a lot. It just won't work by itself. Be creative, modify simple things that are introduced in exercises and so on.

Thanks for the replies everyone!

I will diniftly check out the website you posted!

Ican do autoit pretty well, but want to move up to something more useful.

So the best idea is go from VB to c# ?

Thanks everyone!

Definitely. .NET<3

Start with c++, non of this .NET crap lols. Use a native language
You could use someones Lib.. but thats no good.. Learn it for real..

Just google WriteProcessMemory and your on your way

[sitnspinlock]

if reverse engineering and program analysis is your aim then as said above, definitely start with a native language. i would recommend C.

So funny I was about to make a thread asking the same thing.

Thanks for the links, I'm glad I didn't waste space.

Edit: I found a tutorial.
