    You make lua files, there are plenty of good guides on them.

    You save them like this illidan.lua
    using notepad.

    .XML are web based files and you can google for info on them.
    If you need me you have my skype, if you don't have my skype then you don't need me.

    For Ascent, you can get .lua files on these forums and ascentemu and well, emu forums.
    For add-ons (Yes, they use LUA) go to Curse for example.

    For ascent, you save lua files in folder "Scripts". For add-ons, in World of Warcraft/Interface/addons

    For Ascent, LUA does not connect to .xml.

    These are all good answers, but I still wonder, where do I save my .lua files?

    I'll use an example, because, examples rule..

    I've just made a script for a npc, where the script tells the npc to cast a spell at a certain percentage etc.. Where do I put it so that it can be put to use?
    Like a certain folder or something?
    (I'm on a private server, trying to learn about stuff)

    You place them into your scripts folder located in your ascent folder.
    If you need me you have my skype, if you don't have my skype then you don't need me.
