[Questions] How to become a professional L2J server developer ?

[estaz]

  Hello.

 

After creating a server and closing it many times, I decided to become a professional L2J server developer.

So, I have a questions  for it:

1. What i have to learn?

2. Do I have to learn more coding languages than only java? (If yes, what languages?)

3. Is there a tutorial for java (or something more..) which teaches only how to code Lineage 2?

4. How much time i have to spend for it?

5. What is the best way to learn that all?

6. Is there some type of video tutorial?

7. How did you learned to develop?

8. What do you recommend?

 

Well, I think thats all for now  :)

Thank you.

 

P.S

Sorry for my bad english (I think its very bad  ;D )

i think try by yourself is the best just look understand edit at first times and you get knownlege about that.

 

i learned since kamael my first html xml codes now i can java and all the other thinks :P GL

Simple Steps.

 

1. Learn JAVA (A programing language, cousin of C#)

2. Learn everything related to the L2J world (Classes, Methods, packages, everything!)

3. Open Eclipse and start coding =o

Few samples:

 

- Book: Thinking in Java 4

 

- The Really Big Index (free, sun tutorials).

well first you need to understand programming lanuages,get some books

 

i got different books from different lanuages

 

for example Php 5 Object programming, Java 5 Kompendium some books for c++, html, basic and some others

 

there are several open books that are realy nice.

 

i would recommend to work on l2j too while learning java use your new knowledge and implant stuff code several codes yourself etc. it makes it much more easy to remember all the coding stuff

3 things you have to do - in order:

- Learn Java

- Explore the Core, learn its hierarchy and structure.

- Play with it, meaning, make your own modifications.

 

With time you'll eventually get to it.

 

PS- Don't use L2j, L2jFree Gracia Final or Epi since L2j has the worst programming style ever.

:D p1p2p3 imo.

 

And yeah... time and perseverance. NEVER GIVE UP! And one day... maybe...

 

On a side note.. if I were you, I'd target professianal rather professional.

You know how they say "if you want to learn programming, you have to sit down and do some programming!". Start off with the general stuff: learn the primitive data types ( int, float, char, ... ), boolean algebra, conditions, loops, declaring your functions(methods).  Take a good look at arrays (variable[index]), then try understanding so-called multi-dimentional arrays (variable[index1][index2]...). Practice all of those by solving actual problems (calculating the factorial, sorting data in arrays, and many many more).

 

Once you become confident with above stuff, move on to the actual object-oriented part. Get a good understanding what is a class, object, constructor, 'visibility' (public,private,protected). After 'crunching' these, move on to the advanced OOP stuff - inheritance, abstract classes, interfaces, polymorphism, static members... With this knowledge you should be able to understand how (and why) THE ALMIGHTY L2J core works (and even do your own events, systems 'n shizz yo).

 

Use the sun's java tutorial which Matim posted. It is very very good and helped me a lot when i 'learned' java after using only c++ at uni. Can't remember if it actually includes problems to solve, but you'll find lots of them in 'java books'.

 

All in all you just have to sit and code. Start with simple tasks and go advanced. In other words, you can't do 'le parkour' if you can't even walk properly.
