I taught myself by just inserting a whole bunch of different free models, reading their code, figuring out what each part did, rewriting it myself for added learning, and then seeing what I could write. Over the course of a few months I was writing and editing my own stuff with only slight help from referencing the Wiki.
That's what I did ._. |

I never learned how to script from free models. I just read this: http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Absolute_beginner%27s_guide_to_scripting&oldid=27502 Over and over and over again, and that didn't work, so what I did after that was read this: http://www.roblox.com/ROBLOX-Lua-BEGINNER-Scripting-Tutorial-place?id=363960 Once, and it somehow unified and made sense of everything I'd read so far, and from that day, I could script. |

| I used all of the suggested methods. Basically just start with :Remove() and Instance.new and work your way up. |

I should have said...
Honestly? Don't learn it before you learn actual Lua.

I had the weirdest treatment to learn to script. I went to Anaminus' without using forum scripts and just trying to use what I learned from the quick reading I did from the wiki.
Then there were these really good scripters that screwed over the skids with scripts they made, (this was when that UFO script was mega popular) and noticed I didn't try to use forum scripts and was trying to learn and make my own, so they kinda drafted me into little lessons every tuesday at a certain time that they did and they spent around an hour every week teaching me new things and eventually I made a spawn that was toggleable, all by myself, and then they felt really accomplished.
Around a year later I came in and saw them there and showed them this space rocket I made and they were overjoyed that they were able to teach me to script. |

I learned 'bout 4 years ago. Then my old account was banned for minor problems.
