(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); So I'm interested in creating my own GSC menu for Black Ops 2.
I already know the basic programming concepts and data structures (loops, functions, etc). I do have programming experiences (Java and C++).The tutorials posted in the section for GSC Mods and Scripts are too basic such as explaining what a loop is and what a thread is. I want to know more GSC specific things like what are some important functions to know that are essential for creating any mod menu or like a simple structure of a code that does a simple thing. I want to be able to understand how GSC works pretty much. Is there another forum or a website where they explain more in-depth about how to code GSC, preferably an example of GSC menus are made step by step?

not sure if this help but here
You must login or register to view this content.
it has explanations
if you need more help PM me

First of all if you need any help with understanding code you should check out You must login or register to view this content..
ZeRoY is a mapper and coder and he just decided to make this for the community which is pretty awesome.

And it's actually pretty easy to understand gsc. Just look at menu bases and you will get the hang of it. I recommend you switching to BO3 gsc/csc/gsh (whatever) and not playing around with BO2 gsc.

I hope this helped and as 'Heyyolllloo' said pm me if you need any help.

The pastebin is actually pretty good dude

glad you like it

How experienced are you in cpp? This language is cpp derived; Only new syntax is function accessing ( [[ function ]](params); )
Useful functions are in the utility and throughout the source of the game really.
Best way to learn it is by surfing the decompiled GSC files for BO2.

very true

status on your issue? gotten sufficent help?

I haven't really had the time to take a look at the posted links, but I think this will be a good start. I'll let others know if I need more help. Thanks

Why do you recommend switching to BO3? Is there a difference between the two?
