Hi,

My name is Brandon LaRouche, CEO of Double Trouble Studio.

Double Trouble Studio is the creator of many ROBLOX iOS applications. Now, we are releasing a ROBLOX Lua book on multiple platforms.

Currently, the book is available for the Kindle, Nook, and on Paperback.

***Prices:***
Kindle: $6.99
Nook: $6.99
Paperback
(Full Color) : $45
(Black & White) : $15
***All Paperback prices include printing costs.**

**Where to Find them:***
Barnes and Noble (Website)
Amazon (Website)

Soon, the book will also be available in the iBook format for Apple devices. This format also includes videos for each tutorial.

In the book are 38 chapters with 16 tutorials. Each tutorial has it's own explanation which goes into detail about the ideas discussed.

***The description:***

Inside of this book are explanations to the
basics of Lua Programming. ROBLOX Lua is the language of an online game known as ROBLOX. This book will certainly not turn you into ROBLOX's best game creator over-night but it will start you on your journey to a successful ROBLOX experience.

As you progress through this book you will face a pattern of the content inside each chapter. Most often you will complete a tutorial and then have a chapter of explanalions related to either the chapter you had just finished, or the upcoming chapter.

By the end of this book you should be familiar with the ROBLOX Studio. You should also be able to complete basic scripts with the knowledge of the format of scripts. I do not expect you to be ROBLOX's best programmer, but you will know the basic necessities to begin a successful time in ROBLOX.

Seriously, you've posted this on the wrong forum again.


Is this just you trying to advertise, or?

I'm really excited for this, I really want to get better at scripting. Will you make it into a kind of app, like some of your other tutorials?

I am trying too get the idea of a different ROBLOX learning style out. The ROBLOX Forum serves to share ideas and creations. This thread is on my ROBLOX idea, except it is a reality; this corresponds to the Suggestions & Ideas.

Sounds good. But maybe you should post this in ROBLOX Talk.

No, it in fact, does not.

To be perfectly honest with you I don't see why I'm having this argument. Because this belongs either in the Scripting clubhouse or Roblox Talk, and RT is much more popular than S&I.
You'd be getting more views, and therefore more buyers.

What's the point of posting here?

Or are you just posting everywhere?

Awesome idea that your trying to get this message out about the book, but I think this belongs on Roblox chat.

Actually, this book is completely legal. If you look on the back cover or Title page I have the assigned legal text from ROBLOX. They do not sponsor this book, but I have been given permission.

Guys, not ROBLOX Talk, OK? They would just troll this and say

So, just accept it's in S&I, ok?

Sounds interesting, although I tought myself how to program.
