LIAMX2000'S PROFILE

I was checking the demo of the ring of udrai And I was checking some of the text of the characters talking , and the male character says,
So this is \cAria\c, huh?

is this script ? why would you need to use script for talking ?

Also when the ship is sailing and docks in the upper left side of the screen the words WORLD MAP appear but I can't find the Event the shows it.

I know I sound very nooby.

some help with learning the basics there are so many places to look I literally have about 20 tabs open with tutorials and have no idea which is the best for beginners I realize many people ask for help on here , but I want to know what you guys can recommend that you have used when you were once a beginner.

I have used rpg maker 2003 before and can do a few basic things like make chest's and switches , I'm still confused on variables , and have absolutely no idea on how custom scripts work for VX ACE , For example if I wanted to use a custom side view battle system how would I use and add the script and where would the sprites go for the side view battlers seeing as there is no (character battle sets) in vx ace like in rpg maker 2003 so where do you add the sprites and would you still edit the characters stats in the normal Database seeing that your using a custom script.

I hope the next Rpg maker gives you a choice of battle systems lol.
I know for many of you it's as simple as clicking your fingers , but I find it hard to learn with so many tutorials all saying slightly different things makes it hard because then my brain says keep looking and then as I said I end up with many tabs with loads of tutorials.

any help would be greatly appreciated just a little push in the right direction.

sorry lol 2003

thanks I got it working though I could of sworn I had it on subset , strange lol.
