Hmmm this would Truly be a Backwards step..

The LUA 5 scripting is Far Better than the Old LUA 4..

lo hawk

what i meant was How many top scripters on here are going to convert every lua4 script to lua5 ?????

to me if the hubsoft can run both then it would be far better , very much like win xp can run 98/me progs but when it run win xp progs u get the extras

Lo blackwings

Take a look at all the posts m8 .. everybody is having a go .. it wont take long to have them all converted..

and yes Win XP can run progs/apps for earlier OS's but they run like a " Bag Of Shite " .. lol

I have already all my scripts converted (about 15 scripts) :D

It's easy to convert(well file handling is a bit hard), so you should be able to do it without any problems :)

I don't understand you ppl saying start learning Lua 5,

You can Lua 4 just look at the Lua 5 Reference page and you see what is the different, not much.

it is just categorized into each own table structure.

Lua 5 ----> Lua 4

string.find ---> strfind

table.insert ---> tinsert

math.mod ---> mod

os.clock ---> clock

Am not being rude to you shad. Just pointing out that it will not take much time to learn lua 5 if you know lua 4.
